WUXI, China, April 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Mingteng International Corporation Inc. (Nasdaq: MTEN) (the “Company” or “Mingteng International”), an automotive mold developer and supplier in China, today announced its financial results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

Mr. Yingkai Xu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Mingteng International, remarked, “In fiscal year 2024, we made several strategic decisions, including expanding our production capacity and increasing our workforce, to adapt to evolving market dynamics and rising competition. While these initiatives resulted in higher investments and operating expenses, we achieved solid revenue growth of 23.0%, underscoring the effectiveness of our business strategy and the strength of our long-standing relationships with major customers. Notably, our machining services have become a key growth driver due to prioritized resource allocation. This segment grew by an impressive 327.6% during this year, surpassing our mold repair business to become the second-largest revenue contributor, accounting for the 21.2% of total revenue in fiscal year 2024.

As a result of scaling up our operations, our cost of revenues rose at a faster pace. However, we managed to maintain a healthy gross margin above 30%, despite increased costs and relatively stable selling prices. This demonstrates our ability to sustain profitability while building a strong business foundation for the future growth. Overall, we remained committed to our core strengths in technical expertise, service reputation, and product quality, even in the face of external challenges. The past year was a transformative for Mingteng International, marked by significant expansion, we believe these efforts have laid a robust foundation for long-term, sustainable growth. Backed by the dedication of our team and the successful execution of our strategic initiatives, we are confident in our ability to unlock further development opportunities and elevate our business to the next level with enhanced capabilities and infrastructure.”

Revenue from machining services was $2.14 million in fiscal year 2024, an increase of 327.6% from $0.50 million in fiscal year 2023.

Currently, Kehua Holding Co., Ltd. and Suzhou Green Control Transmission Technology Co., Ltd. are our major customers in machine services.

Cost of Revenues

Akemona to Power Upcoming Tokenized Offering for Industrialized Innovation Impact Portfolio I

Published

on

By

The initiative is designed to support the tokenization and commercialization of 100 companies formed around acquired innovation-related intellectual property.

FULLERTON, Calif., April 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Akemona, Inc., a provider of tokenization and digital asset issuance infrastructure, announced today that a tokenized offering for Industrialized Innovation Impact Portfolio I LLC is now available through the Akemona platform.

The initiative is centered on 100 companies formed through the acquisition of innovation-related intellectual property and associated commercialization rights. Tokenization is intended to support the commercialization of these companies through a structured digital asset framework.

According to information provided to Akemona, Industrialized Innovation Impact Portfolio I is designed to offer diversified exposure to 100 early-stage companies created through FyrstGen’s Company Building as a Service (CBaaS®) model. The portfolio is structured through a special purpose vehicle and is intended to hold 50% equity positions in 100 FyrstGen companies spanning sectors such as green energy, sustainable agriculture, public health, and other innovation-driven markets.

Industrialized Innovations has stated that the portfolio is part of a broader effort to transform underutilized intellectual property into commercially oriented operating companies. The underlying companies are built and run by FyrstGen itself through its proprietary CBaaS® platform. Acting as the centralized entrepreneur, CBaaS® executes company formation, strategic planning, commercialization, scaling, and exit preparation end-to-end — eliminating founder dependency by design.

“Through our partnership with Akemona, for the first time ever, we can standardize the refinancing of innovation — a major milestone in the global rollout of our new ecosystem,” said Philipp Assmus, Chief Executive Officer of Industrialized Innovations and Fyrst Limited. Clémence Kopeikin, Chief Operating Officer at FyrstGen, added, “For too long, entire regions, communities, and brilliant minds have been excluded from value creation. We’re opening the door for those who have historically been left out of the process, all while bringing innovation to market, addressing some of the world’s biggest challenges.”

The initiative comes at a time when tokenization is receiving increased attention in the United States as policymakers and regulators work toward greater clarity for digital assets and tokenized securities. Recent developments, including the House passage of the CLARITY Act in 2025 and SEC staff guidance on tokenized securities in January 2026, have added momentum to the broader market discussion, even as the legislative process continues.

For Akemona, the project reflects how tokenization can be applied not only to individual assets but also to larger multi-company structures. Akemona’s technology is designed to support digital asset issuance, blockchain-based ownership records, investor access workflows, and smart contract-enabled transaction infrastructure.

“Tokenization is moving beyond isolated use cases and becoming a serious infrastructure layer for modern capital formation,” said Alex de Lorraine, Chief Executive Officer of Akemona. “This initiative stands out because of its scale and architecture. Bringing 100 companies into a single tokenized framework demonstrates how blockchain technology can support more structured, transparent, and efficient approaches to private market participation.”

The offering materials provided to Akemona state that the portfolio companies are derived from intellectual property sourced from universities and independent research, with an emphasis on commercial potential and real-world impact. The stated use of proceeds includes supporting commercialization infrastructure, initial product orders, and portfolio scaling activities intended to position the companies for future acquisition pathways.

Akemona provides blockchain-based infrastructure for digital asset issuance and management, helping businesses and financial institutions modernize capital formation through tokenized securities and other blockchain-native financial instruments. The company’s platform supports digital issuance workflows, investor onboarding, smart contract deployment, and ownership administration for tokenized assets.

LOS ANGELES, April 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — AIxCrypto Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: AIXC) (“AIxC” or the “Company”), a Nasdaq-listed technology company building a three-layer architecture spanning the infrastructure, protocol, and application layers, today provided an update regarding the amended and restated securities purchase agreement entered into by Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFAI) (“FFAI”) and Gold King Arthur Holding Limited (“GKA”), a designated third-party investor identified by AIxC, in connection with the investment transaction previously announced by the parties. The amendment increases the total investment amount from $10 million to $12 million and includes updates to the transaction structure, pricing mechanism, and other terms.

Under the amended structure, the investment consists of a combination of common stock and preferred equity, with $500,000 used to purchase FF Class A common stock and $11.5 million used to purchase newly created Series C preferred stock. In addition, the original True-Up provision has been removed and replaced with a warrant to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of FF common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share, expiring in April 2030. The warrant will become exercisable after FF delivers its 500th FX Super One vehicle.

The amendment also adjusts the pricing mechanism. The purchase price of the common stock and the conversion price of the preferred stock are based on the average closing price over the 10 trading days prior to signing. Based on a reference price of $0.25956 per share as of April 14, 2026, the $500,000 common stock investment corresponds to approximately 1,926,337 shares of Class A common stock.

The transaction was facilitated through a designated third-party investment entity and represents one of the Company’s approaches to exploring the integration of Real World Assets (RWA) with blockchain infrastructure. The Company is exploring the potential use of the associated equity as underlying assets for future tokenization-related applications, aiming to expand the role of digital assets in real-world economic scenarios.

The Company stated that it will continue to advance its RWA-related framework and strengthen its capabilities in connecting traditional capital markets with Web3 infrastructure.

Management Commentary

Kevin Richardson, Co-CEO of AIxC, stated: “The amendment to the securities purchase agreement reflects our continued confidence in Faraday Future’s execution roadmap. The milestone-linked warrant ensures this investment retains meaningful upside tied to FF’s vehicle delivery progress, while securing a more flexible framework to support our blockchain ecosystem.”

Knowlej and Chime Launch Financial Futures Campaign to Help Students Build Financial Confidence and Strengthen Engagement in School

Published

on

By

LOS ANGELES, April 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Knowlej today announced the launch of Knowlej Financial Futures, powered by leading financial technology company Chime, a new financial literacy challenge series designed for middle and high school students. The program pairs practical, student-friendly learning with rewards that reinforce a simple message: students can earn while they learn to power their own futures.

A Different Model for Attendance and Engagement

Across the country, millions of students are missing school at an alarming rate, fueling a crisis of chronic absenteeism. Meanwhile, many graduate without the financial knowledge or habits needed for their future. Financial Futures addresses this by showing that when students find value in attending, everything changes.

Knowlej Financial Futures is delivered through schools and districts using the Knowlej platform to drive participation and make learning feel relevant to students day to day. Currently, the Knowlej platform powers Financial Futures, which lets students participate in financial literacy challenges and helps them maintain attendance by offering rewards tied to consistent engagement. This structure is designed to support both skill-building and the habits that keep students connected to school.

The model shifts the focus from a traditional compliance-based approach to a “motivation-through-meaning” model that re-engages students by rewarding consistency and offers a new learning path. The initiative will be especially important for students in underserved communities, where access to financial education and wealth-building has historically been limited.

Building a New Path to Better Engagement

Chime, supporting Knowlej’s mission to boost engagement through rewards, will add modern financial tools to the program. Together, they aim to make financial education not only accessible but engaging, showing students that attendance leads to real-world financial outcomes.

“We’re facing a moment where students are not just absent from school, but disconnected from what school represents,” the CEO of Knowlej, Principal Rahh, stated. “Financial Futures is about changing that. When students see that showing up leads to real opportunities, when learning connects to something tangible, like their financial future, engagement changes. This is how we re-engage, restore, and reward students at scale.”

Access to high-quality financial education is not evenly distributed. Students and communities that can benefit most from foundational financial knowledge and wealth-building concepts are often the least likely to have consistent access. Knowlej Financial Futures is designed to help close that gap by delivering engaging, school-based learning experiences that meet students where they are and prioritize practical decision making, safety, and confidence, including how to avoid predatory or unscrupulous practices that can derail progress.

“At Chime, we believe financial education should be accessible, practical, and empowering from an early age,” said Sara El-Amine, Vice President of Community at Chime. “Through Financial Futures, we’re excited to help students build financial progress skills while reinforcing the connection between showing up, staying engaged, and unlocking opportunity.”

Together, the partners are taking an important step toward a shared vision: equipping students with the knowledge, confidence, and habits to manage money wisely, avoid costly mistakes, and build future opportunities.

New Launch and Ongoing Expansion

Financial Futures launches during Financial Literacy Month across Knowlej partner schools and districts in Los Angeles, New York, Washington, D.C., New Jersey, Colorado, and more, with plans to expand soon. Students who participate in the challenges and maintain attendance may earn rewards that link showing up with building a better future.

Early data show increased student engagement when schools implement the model. Knowlej plans to share participation and engagement insights with their partners during the spring rollout and to expand Financial Futures into a much broader national model that connects attendance, financial literacy, and, ultimately, better long-term opportunity.

About Knowlej

Knowlej is an AI-powered engagement platform designed to help schools and districts re-engage students and reduce chronic absenteeism through culturally relevant challenges and meaningful rewards.
