In addition, the disposal of Tianxin Coal generated an investment gain of approximately RMB 790 million. The above factors led to a significant increase in the Group’s net profit. In this regard, the Group completed the capital increase in its non-wholly owned subsidiaries and enlarged its shareholding to 80.18%, leading to a significant increase in the net profit attributable to the parent company. As the global economy gradually picked up, the market demand for the Group's main products remained stable. Although fluctuations in raw material prices weighed on the product prices, the Group achieved stable improvement in its operating results by expanding production capacity and sales channels. The sales revenue of fertiliser segment, chemical segment, gas segment and medical intermediate accounted for 60%, 36%, 2% and 2% respectively of the total revenue. During the Period, the sales volume of urea products increased by 33% YoY to 2.768 million tons mainly due to the expansion of production capacity and resumed operation of some production facilities.

Looking ahead into the future, Mr. Liu Xingxu, Chairman of China XLX, said: The fourth quarter will see the peak demand season for winter. With the support of macroeconomic policies, the price of coal feedstock is expected to stabilize and rebound, forming effective support for fertiliser prices. Meanwhile, with the implementation of environmental protection and production capacity control policies, the supply of nitrogen fertilisers will reduce in stages. Driven by the demand arising from winter fertiliser reserves and off-season procurement, fertiliser prices are expected to gradually stabilize. The Group will continue to promote green and low-carbon transformation through technological innovation and industrial chain extension, thereby enhancing product value and promoting high-quality development. Mr. Liu Xingxu pointed out that China XLX will leverage its competitive edges in R&D to promote the development of new chemical materials and fine chemicals to meet the market demand for high-performance and high value-added products and ensure the Group’s sustainable growth in the long run.

EQS Newswire / 29/10/2024 / 09:50 MSK Solidcore Resources plc (“Solidcore” or the “Company”) reports production results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024 and changes in its management team. “In Q3, we have remained on track with our production guidance, maintaining strong operational performance and progressing Ertis POX and Kyzyl underground investment projects”, said Vitaly Nesis, Group CEO of Solidcore Resources plc. HIGHLIGHTS No fatal accidents occurred and no lost time injuries were recorded among the Company’s employees and contractors during the first nine months of 2024. Gold equivalent (“GE”) production fell by 7% year-on-year (y-o-y) to 119 Koz in Q3 2024 on the back of a decrease in payable gold shipments at Kyzyl. GE production for the first nine months of 2024 was 371 Koz, a 9% increase y-o-y and in line with the full-year production guidance. GE sales in the Q3 increased by 10% y-o-y to 122 Koz, although the Company recorded lower sales volume versus high base the previous quarter, when a significant part of inventories was released. Revenue for the reporting quarter and nine-month period increased by 45% and 67% y-o-y to US$ 302 and US$ 1,006 million respectively driven by higher gold prices and sales. Solidcore is on track to meet its full-year production guidance of 475 Koz of GE. TCC and AISC guidance of US$ 900-1,000/GE oz and US$ 1,250-1,350/GE oz respectively is also maintained. The estimate remains contingent on the KZT/USD exchange rate, which has a significant effect on the Group’s local currency denominated operating costs. Maxim Nazimok, the Company’s CFO, will step down from his position effective November 10, 2024 to pursue career opportunities outside of Solidcore. Evgenia Onuschenko, EVP for Corporate Finance, will assume the position immediately thereafter. As part of the transition, all management and supervisory functions have been transferred to the Company’s headquarters in Astana. “I am deeply grateful to Maxim for his invaluable contribution to our development over the past 13 years with the company, especially for his efforts during the recent challenging years.

It will be included in total production upon shipment to off-taker or dore production under the tolling contract at third-party POX. At Kyzyl, gold production in the first nine months of 2024 increased on the back of higher Q2 concentrate shipment volumes to China. Quarterly gold production fell by 9% y-o-y to 77 Koz due to shipments reduction, driven by a shortage of railcars and congestion on the eastbound railroads in Kazakhstan. Waste and ore mining volumes reductions during the reported quarter are attributable to the scheduled decommissioning of the mine fleet. Full-year ore mining volumes will reach the planned 2.4 Mtpa. The Company is starting basic engineering and procurement of long-lead equipment for the Kyzyl underground mine project.

The substantial increase in social networking business revenue was largely credited to the rapid and sustained growth of Newborn Town’s portfolio of social apps. Since the beginning of this year, the pan-audience social networking business has continued to expand, with a focus on key regions such as the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). It has been consistently optimizing its operational strategies, enhancing user experiences, and improving monetization efficiency, In the third quarter, the companion-based social networking app SUGO has maintained strong growth and become the company’s highest-grossing social-product. It also became Newborn Town’s second social app, after MICO, to surpass USD 10 million in monthly revenue. According to data from the analytics platform data.ai, SUGO has consistently ranked among the top spots on iOS social app bestseller lists in key markets such as the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Turkey. Through localized product innovation, refined operations, content ecosystem development, and ongoing optimization of monetization strategies, the company’s various products have secured leading positions in niche markets. This has further bolstered the competitiveness of its pan-audience social product portfolio in key regions. Meanwhile, the company has made positive strides in its diverse-audience social networking business. Since the launch of HeeSay (the LGBTQ+ online community), Newborn Town has rapidly expanded its global brand influence through innovative events such as the HeeSay Gala and the LivelyLaugh Campaign. As a result of these efforts, HeeSay was recognized by DatingNews.com as one of the 10 most innovative LGBTQ+ dating apps in 2024. While the core social networking businesses continue to experience sustained growth, the innovative business segment has been demonstrating steady performance as the company’s second growth curve. For the nine months ended 30 September 2024, revenue from the innovative business segment reached approximately RMB 300 million to RMB 320 million, reflecting an increase of about 12.4% to 19.9% compared to the same period in 2023. In addition, the company's quality games business has continued to make significant breakthroughs. Boosted by increased revenue from flagship titles like Alice's Dream: Merge Games, the business segment achieved an amount of recharge of approximately RMB 576 million during the period, representing a remarkable increase of about 182.5%.

EQS Newswire / 23/10/2024 / 11:34 UTC+8 A new nanodrug development company - MegaPro Biomedical Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "MegaPro", Taiwan OTC Stock Code: 6827) announced today that Dr. Hsu Yuanhung, vice president of the R&D Department, will head to Oslo, Norway on behalf of MegaPro to participate in the Contrast Media Research Symposium 2024, which is held biannually by the World Molecular Imaging Society (WMIS), and orally announce the research results of MPB-2354, an allogeneic stem cell preparation with excellent anti-inflammatory effects and dual functions in vivo imaging tracking, in the field of cell therapy. Major international developer research units and pharmaceutical companies are participating in WMIS, including internationally renowned manufacturers such as GE, Bayer, Bracco, and Guerbet.Dr. Hsu Yuanhung of MegaPro states that MPB-2354 has developed into an allogeneic stem cell preparation with both excellent anti-inflammatory effects and vivo imaging tracking functions, due to a combination of its independently developed iron oxide nanoparticles (IOP) and allogeneic adipose stem cells nanoparticle technology platforms. As a result of its new innovative structure, the MPB-2354 possesses the following advantages;(1) The MRI imaging capabilities and stem cell phagocytosis efficiency of the IOP are superior to similar products. Vitro and animal experiments have verified its MRI imaging tracking capabilities, and the imaging effect is stronger and lasts longer.(2) Higher phagocytosis also changes the original morphology and function of stem cells. The IOP also comes with complete preclinical and clinical safety data, which lowers safety concerns regarding future human clinical trials of the MPB-2354.(3) The anti-inflammatory ability of cells can be strengthened, as the iron oxide component in the IOP has the potential to regulate iron-related metabolic pathways in cells, causing the active ability of the IDO1 to increase after being phagocytized by MSC (IOP-ADSC), thereby opening the positive feedback loop of immune regulation of the MSC and strengthening immunosuppressive capabilities.The MPB-2354 cell therapy product developed by MegaPro has demonstrated imaging capabilities during research. Under the irradiation of MRI T2* sequence, it has illustrated the function of implanted cell tracking, which can ensure the quality of cell therapy and monitor post-injection information such as cell location, survival status and activity, which will play an important role in formulating clinical treatment plans. At the same time, according to our pre-clinical experimental results, MPB-2354 (IOP-labeled ADSC) has a significantly improved anti-inflammatory response when compared with pure ADSC. MPB-2354 is an allogeneic stem cell preparation that has both excellent anti-inflammatory effects and in-vivo imaging tracking functions. It possesses advantages that are not currently available in similar commercial products and holds strong potential to become a clinical alternative treatment option. 23/10/2024 Dissemination of a Financial Press Release, transmitted by EQS News.The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.Media archive at www.todayir.com

EQS Newswire / 16/10/2024 / 10:29 UTC+8 Seattle, WA - October 16, 2024 - (SeaPRwire) - Seattle has earned its reputation as a global leader in technological innovation and creativity. With tech giants like Microsoft and Amazon calling the city home, along with a thriving startup ecosystem, Seattle fosters an environment where new ideas thrive. However, this dynamic industry brings unique challenges, particularly in protecting intellectual property (IP). Innovators and creators must go through complex legal terrain to safeguard their work against piracy, counterfeiting, and infringement. This is where Attorney Tim Billick steps in. Now a partner at the global law firm Practus LLP, Billick has become a crucial ally for Seattle's tech and creative communities. He specializes in technology and entertainment contracts, trademark prosecution, copyright protection, patent prosecution, and IP litigation. Building Trust Through Expertise Tim Billick's journey into law is as eclectic as the city he serves. Before earning his law degree from the University of Washington, he was a musician, venue owner, carpenter, and tech enthusiast. This diverse background gives him a unique perspective and a deep understanding of the creative and technical processes that drive innovation. "Making a living off of creativity is hard work, and you can't do it alone, and so I've always been passionate about helping creators protect their ideas and succeed," Billick explains. "My goal is to help them navigate the legal landscape to achieve success. Laws don't exist in a vacuum, and so I always get a full 360-view of what my client is trying to accomplish in their personal and business lives." Tim knows how to build a business on the foundation of creativity. Before joining Practus, Tim grew his former practice TBillick Law PLLC grew from zero clients to well over 200 clients including high-profile names like Anova Culinary and Bungie Studios. The firm leveraged the latest tools and Billick's creativity to make IP protection more accessible to a wide range of clients. He still uses this approach as a partner on a larger team to take on larger clients with more complex problems. For example, Tim's tactical use of artificial intelligence (AI) to streamline research, writing, and operations further sets him apart. This technological integration allows his practice to handle routine tasks more efficiently and it enables his team to focus on developing personalized strategies for each client. But Tim knows that tech alone only goes so far. Billick's client relationships are based on clear communication and understanding their objectives. "Every interaction with a client is an opportunity to share knowledge," he says. "I also take every call as an opportunity to learn from my own clients. You have to be insatiably curious to do well as an intellectual property attorney." This philosophy has helped the firm build a loyal client base and earned it a stellar reputation, reflected in its 4.9-star rating on Google reviews. Educating and Empowering Through IP Law Tim Billick's influence extends beyond his firm. He is recognized as a thought leader in intellectual property law, frequently sharing his insights through articles, speaking engagements, and industry panels. His aptitude has been acknowledged by his peers, earning him a spot on the Thomson Reuters Super Lawyers "Rising Star" list every year since 2016; and top ratings from the peer review-based rating companies Martindale-Hubbell and Best Lawyers. Billick's leadership is driven by a desire to educate and empower others. He has presented IP law topics for the King County Bar Association and at events like GeekGirlCon, where he co-presented "Intellectual Property Fundamentals for Creators." His active participation in professional organizations, such as the Copyright Society of the USA and the International Trademark Association, further underscores his commitment to advancing the field. Billick's ability to bridge the gap between legal complexities and practical applications has made him a sought-after speaker and advisor. "Our clients seek us out to learn," he emphasizes, "and so it helps everyone in the relationship if we have a shared language and understanding about the legal concepts we apply." Overcoming Challenges and Driving Innovation Despite the challenges inherent in IP law, Tim Billick has consistently demonstrated resilience. His firm's recent signing of the RPrime Foundation, an invention incubator from Seattle, highlights its growing influence and ability to attract diverse clients. This achievement reflects Billick's strategic vision and the firm's reputation for delivering results. Billick's diverse work experience also shaped his outlook on problem-solving. "Working in construction, the music business, and in universities gives you very different perspectives on dispute resolution," he says while laughing. This skill set has proven invaluable in his legal career, enabling him to navigate complex disputes and achieve favorable client outcomes. A Lasting Impact on Seattle's IP Landscape Billick's commitment to staying current with technological and legal developments helps keep him at the forefront of intellectual property law. His background and problem-solving prowess are well-regarded by clients and colleagues. As Seattle's tech and creative sectors grow, the need for effective IP protection increases. Under Billick's leadership, he provides the necessary legal prowess and personalized service to help innovators succeed. Billick emphasizes, "Our goal is to assist clients in protecting their creations and achieving their objectives, supporting them throughout the process."

EQS Newswire / 14/10/2024 / 10:24 UTC+8 On October 8th, the State Council Information Office of the People’s Republic of China held a press conference to brief on systematically implementing a package of incremental policies to solidly promote economic growth, structural optimization and sustained momentum of development. Zheng Shanjie, chairman of the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), stated at the meeting that in response to the new situations and problems in the current economic operation, the Party Central Committee and the State Council have made scientific decisions and taken decisive actions. While effectively implementing existing policies, they have also launched a package of incremental policies around five aspects, including increasing counter-cyclical adjustment of macro policies and expanding domestic effective demand, to promote sustained economic recovery and improvement. In my opinion, the sports industry, as an important lever to stimulate domestic demand and promote cultural and tourism development, has ushered in a broader development space under the promotion of a package of incremental policies. Focusing on the digital sports and entertainment market, it is also not difficult to foresee that the leading digital sports entertainment enterprise, Crazy Sports Group Limited (0082. HK), may still benefit significantly from it. At this point, there are also more reasons to be optimistic about the accelerated growth in the medium and long term, and the mean reversion for value based on improved market environment. “Sports+” Continues to Spark Economic Dynamics and Is Expected to Further Receive Policy Support Zheng Shanjie emphasized in his speech that the incremental policies of enhancing domestic demand should focus more on improving livelihoods and boosting consumption. So, how can we promote consumption? Referring to the market performance during the just concluded National Day holiday, it can be found that sports consumption is becoming a new potential for activating the economy. On the evening of October 6th, the 2024 China Open and the World Table Tennis (WTT) China Smash came to an end in Beijing. The two international tournaments combined with the National Day golden week have generated considerable economic energy. Data shows that the total box office of China Open this year has reached a historic high of 80 million yuan; The box office of the WTT China Smash reached nearly 60 million yuan, driving a comprehensive consumption of over 50 million yuan. As of October 5th, about 140,000 out of town fans and over 13,000 out of town spectators have entered the stadium to watch the game. The consecutive start of the two major events has had a significant spillover effect on the cultural and tourism consumption of their host city, Beijing. According to data from China Railway Beijing Group, the expected inbound and outbound passengers totaled 26.853 million, an increase of 73000 or 2.8% year-on-year during the National Day golden week. According to Trip.com data, travel orders in Beijing increased by 7% year-on-year, and ticket orders increased by 11% year-on-year during the golden week. It can be seen that the popularity and clout of heavyweight events can make the event economy become a new momentum for urban development, thereby stimulating economic vitality. Besides, the "silver economy" has become an important driver for future macroeconomic growth against the backdrop of China's rapid population aging. Sullivan's White Paper on Industrial Development Trends in China over the Next 50 Years stated that by the end of 2023, the population of people aged 60 and above in China will reach nearly 300 million, and it is expected that this number will reach 400 million by 2035. Silver-haired families will gradually become the main consumer group in China in the future. Hu Zuquan, director and researcher of the Population Development Research Office of the Economic Forecasting Department of the State Information Center, previously stated that by 2035, China's silver economy is estimated at around 30 trillion yuan in size, accounting for about 10% of the GDP during the same period. Specifically, the silver economy holds quite extensive industry chain, including numerous sub-sectors such as healthcare, elderly care, tourism, and entertainment. Sports, as a crucial part of maintaining health and anti-aging for middle-aged and elderly people, are also an important component of the silver economy. Dr. Zhang Lijun, chairman of the board of directors of Crazy Sports, once stated that people are eager to learn about the latest medical technology achievements and hope to receive guidance on healthy living. It is reported that during his tenure as a research scholar at Stanford University School of Medicine, Dr. Zhang was invited to participate in a Health Matters community event organized by Stanford University School of Medicine. During the event, a group of world-class medical professors and experts from Stanford University discussed many key topics related to health and elderly care. Dr. Zhang found that there is a high consensus both domestically and internationally in the areas of disease prevention, anti-aging, and graceful aging. According to the report on development trends and potential opportunities of silver economy released by Shanghai Securities, it is expected that by 2050, China's elderly education market will exceed 100 billion yuan in size. Elderly learning includes different types of interest-based learning such as health and well-being learning, physical exercise learning, etc. Overall, it is increasingly prominent that sports can bring multiplier effects to economic development. Therefore, sports are expected to become an important part of the country's expansion of domestic demand and gain more policy support. Crazy Sports is Expected to Be Significant Beneficiary As Sports Industry Continues to Grow in Size By following this logic, it can be inferred that the value of Crazy Sports is worth reassessing since the Group features the ability to host and operate sports events from related industry chain through empowering its business with artificial intelligence (AI) technology to foster new consumption scenarios of diversified integration of "sports+". Specifically, Crazy Sports continuously creates new business models that combine sports and new scenarios, gradually increasing its attractiveness to both To C and To B, and better accommodating the growth of the sports market. In respect of event operations, Crazy Sports has capitalized on its unique "Digital + Sports" and "Sports + Entertainment" resources advantages to successfully host significant sports IP events, such as the WBC Professional Boxing Championship. It is learned that this event has not only created unprecedented popularity in the Chinese professional boxing industry, but also significantly driven the development of local tourism economy and carried forward the traditional culture such as Foshan Kung Fu. As mentioned earlier, as the sports economy is becoming a new driver for urban development, Crazy Sports may have more chance to host more events by virtue of its constantly improving capabilities for event operations in this field, thereby further promoting the Group's development. From another perspective, in the face of the current digital economy era, companies are utilizing big data and AI technology to build a more complete AI ecosystem, which is expected to fully share the dividends of the digital sports market. For example, Ruyi, the first domestic large model AI assistant tailored in specific for "Sports + Lottery" sector in China, was launched during the UEFA Euro 2024. This AI assistant provided personalized services to users, successfully seizing the opportunity in the field of paid sports information, and significantly enhancing the spending willingness and consumption amount of private domain users. It is worth noting that in China's silver economy market, which is worth 30 trillion yuan, there is no absolute dominant giant born domestically. As a pioneer in exploring "Sports+", Crazy Sports is expected to expand more business in areas such as "Sports + Health", "Sports + Elderly Care", "Sports + Entertainment", and "Sports + Tourism" in the future, thereby enjoying more dividends of industrial growth. The "Graceful Life” theory proposed by Dr. Zhang Lijun emphasized the importance of eating well, sleeping well, maintaining a sharp mind and staying energetic. He also pointed out that anti-oxidation, anti-glycation and anti-inflammation are key strategies for anti-aging to achieve a high-quality life, and regular physical exercise is undoubtedly an essential approach to “Aging Gracefully”.

EQS Newswire / 03/10/2024 / 10:21 UTC+8 Paris, France - October 03, 2024 - (SeaPRwire) - On September 18, 2024, the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées became the stage for an extraordinary fusion of business acumen, cultural diplomacy, and artistic expression as Omar Harfouch, a successful entrepreneur and celebrated pianist, unveiled his "Concerto for Peace." Recognising that both markets and societies thrive on cooperation as much as competition, Harfouch aimed to leverage his global platform to inspire unity in a world increasingly marked by division. The event sought not only to engage audiences through music but to foster dialogue on the essential role of cross-cultural collaboration in building a more stable and interconnected global landscape. Harfouch, a highly successful businessman as well as an accomplished musician, has had a career that spans multiple sectors. His business success, as he expressed during the event, has allowed him to pursue ventures like the "Concerto for Peace" as a way of giving back. Reflecting on his journey, Harfouch explained that while competition has driven much of his professional life, he has come to recognise that cooperation is equally essential—not just for business, but for the broader social and economic well-being of communities. His performance aimed to reinforce this message, using music as a tool to foster understanding and collaboration between cultures. A Cultural Diplomacy Initiative with Global Resonance The "Concerto for Peace" is not just a musical performance—it's an embodiment of Harfouch's belief in the power of cultural diplomacy. He has long been an advocate for using the arts to bridge divides, and this event sought to highlight the need for cross-cultural cooperation. The concert's fusion of classical Western and oriental musical styles symbolized the blending of different cultures, emphasizing the shared human values that transcend borders. The 60-piece Orchestre Béziers Méditerranée, led by conductor Mathieu Bonnin, was a critical part of this artistic endeavour. Alongside violinist Anne Gravoin and co-orchestrator Houtaf Khoury, the orchestra's performance captivated the audience, who responded enthusiastically throughout the evening. Harfouch opened the concert with "Fantaisie Orientale," a vibrant piece that blends the sounds of the East and West. The audience was immediately engaged, with the piece receiving such enthusiastic applause that it was performed again. This interplay of musical traditions highlighted the broader message of unity that Harfouch wanted to communicate—that through cooperation and shared experiences, people from different backgrounds can come together in harmony. One of the concert's most striking elements was the symbolic gesture of the entire orchestra performing while wearing sunglasses, a nod to Harfouch's signature style. Harfouch explained that the sunglasses represented light as a beacon of hope, driving away the darkness of hatred and division. This visual metaphor added depth to the concert's message, reminding the audience that light—whether literal or symbolic—has the power to dispel negativity. A Global Call for Cooperation Harfouch's personal journey, from business success to cultural ambassador, gave the evening additional significance. Having been fortunate in life, he sees this initiative as his way of giving back to society. Drawing on his experience in both business and the arts, Harfouch shared how he has learned that cooperation is just as vital as competition in building a healthy society. The concert was a reflection of this philosophy, aiming to inspire collective action toward peace. The evening's program continued with "Tripoli," a deeply personal piece dedicated to Harfouch's hometown in Lebanon. Accompanied by video footage of the city's architecture and scenes of his wife Yulia, the performance emphasized the meeting of East and West, symbolizing how cultural fusion can lead to beauty and understanding. The emotional weight of the performance resonated with the audience, who remained captivated throughout. The night's defining moment came with the performance of "You Save One Life, You Save Humanity," a composition that draws from both the Talmud and the Qur'an. This powerful piece underscored the universal value of human life, regardless of religion or nationality. The message resonated deeply with the audience, which included diplomats and religious leaders from a variety of backgrounds. Music as a Path to Harmony The climax of the evening was Harfouch's much-anticipated "Concerto for Peace," a piece that conveyed the emotional journey from conflict to harmony. The concerto's movements reflected the tension that often accompanies efforts toward peace, but also the resolution and hope that can arise from cooperative efforts. Harfouch's expressions throughout the performance captured both the pain of conflict and the joy of resolution, leaving a lasting impact on the audience. As the final notes of the concerto rang out, the audience rose to their feet in a standing ovation. Harfouch then addressed the crowd, saying, "Now it is time for you to respond to the call for peace." A choir of 30 singers lined the aisles, delivering a harmony that echoed the concert's central message: peace is not an abstract concept, but something that requires active participation from everyone. Looking Ahead: A Global Tour Reflecting on the concert's success, Harfouch remarked, "Music has the power to bring people together in ways that words sometimes cannot. My hope is that this 'Concerto for Peace' will inspire not only cooperation but action." The "Concerto for Peace" tour is scheduled to continue, with upcoming performances at the Vatican, the United Nations in Geneva, and the Italian Parliament. Harfouch's vision is clear: to use music as a medium to unite people, foster understanding, and inspire global cooperation. In a world increasingly divided by political and social tensions, Harfouch's initiative serves as a reminder that art can be a powerful force for change. About Concerto for Peace "Concerto for Peace" is a global musical initiative founded by pianist, composer, and humanitarian Omar Harfouch. The project brings together musicians and artists from around the world to promote peace and unity through music. With performances across major cities, it strives to create cultural dialogues that inspire understanding, empathy, and reconciliation.
