NEW YORK and LONDON, Sept. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Generation Essentials Group (NYSE: TGE; LSE: TGE) (“TGE” or the “Company”), today announced that it has received a letter from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), notifying the Company that it is below compliance standards due to the trading price of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares.

Pursuant to Section 802.01C of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual, a company will be considered to be below compliance standards if the average closing price of its security as reported on the consolidated tape is less than US$1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. The Company has six months (the “Cure Period”) following receipt of the notice to regain compliance with the minimum share price requirement. The Company can regain compliance at any time during the Cure Period if on the last trading day of any calendar month during the Cure Period the Company has a closing share price of at least US$1.00 per Class A ordinary share and an average closing share price of at least US$1.00 per Class A ordinary share over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of that month.

Michigan-based 3PL confirms 685 appointments at a 98.8% confirmation rate through Qued’s Turvo integration, with company-wide rollout planned by year end

RICHMOND, Va., Sept. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Qued, a leader in developing sophisticated, automated appointment scheduling solutions for supply chain and logistics companies, today announced that Windmill Transport, a Michigan-based third-party logistics provider, has gone live with Qued’s Smart Appointments platform. Qued connects through Windmill’s Turvo TMS to automate portal and email scheduling for the operators who book the company’s freight every day.

Windmill’s starting point is a familiar one in freight. More than 40 operators across the company’s three offices schedule appointments daily, and before Qued that work ran through shipper portals, email threads, and phone calls. A single appointment could take hours. Founded in 2006 and rebranded from West Michigan Transport in 2025 as it grew into a national provider, Windmill is a company that treats efficiency as part of its identity, and those lost hours had no place in its plans.

The rollout is already producing countable results:

685 appointments confirmed through Qued as of July 2498.8% confirmation rateScheduling that once took hours per appointment now takes minutes

“We’ve tried other platforms, but Qued stands above the rest. Their attention to detail through onboarding won us over, and the results have kept proving it. Watching our operators schedule multiple shipments in minutes was eye opening. Less time spent scheduling means more time servicing our customers and carriers in other valuable ways,” said Cami Cripe, Senior Account Manager at Windmill Transport.

Qued’s platform uses machine learning to find the best appointment slots in real time, weighing ETAs, facility capacity, historical performance, and the specific requirements of each location. Because Qued connects directly to Turvo, Windmill’s operators keep working inside the system they already know while the platform books through portals and email behind the scenes, cutting the manual touches where costly human errors creep in and freeing operators to take on more shipments.

Windmill went live in April with a small group of teams and has been expanding by the week. The plan from here is to bring Qued to every team in the company over the coming weeks, with full implementation across the business by the end of the year.

“Windmill is exactly the kind of operation Qued was built for. More than 40 operators, three offices, and growth measured week over week leaves no room for hours lost to a single appointment,” said Prasad Gollapalli, CEO of Qued. “A 98.8% confirmation rate this early in a rollout tells you what a disciplined 3PL and real scheduling automation can do together. When scheduling stops eating the day, that time goes back to customers and carriers.”

Windmill Transport joins a growing roster of brokers, 3PLs, and carriers that run appointment scheduling on Qued.

Qued is a cloud-based, AI-powered smart workflow automation platform transforming load appointment scheduling for brokers, 3PLs, and carriers. By automating the scheduling process, Qued eliminates manual work, simplifies multi-stop load appointments, and ensures seamless coordination across the supply chain, improving both operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.

EscapeSquid Connecting Riders with Local Experiences

NEWARK, Del., Sept. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Xanh Entertainment Inc., developer of EscapeSquid, today announced that the company is pursuing a $2.5 million seed funding round to support the next phase of development and expansion of its virtual-to-destination fitness, entertainment and travel platform.

EscapeSquid is expanding its model around stationary cycling and fitness experiences, creating a progression that can take participants from at-home virtual rides to participating fitness studios, local events and destination travel experiences.

“Our next phase is about building the infrastructure that connects virtual fitness participation with local businesses and ultimately destination travel,” said John Phung, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Xanh Entertainment Inc. “If completed, the proposed $2.5 million seed round is intended to give us the resources to develop that network, expand our technology and establish partnerships across fitness, hospitality and travel.”

From Virtual Rides to Real-World Travel

The platform is intended to allow participants to begin through virtual cycling and on-demand experiences using compatible stationary bikes and then progress into participating studio classes, local experiences and destination events.

For local businesses, the model is designed to create additional opportunities to reach both residents and travelers. Fitness studios can participate through classes and events, while hotels, restaurants, attractions and tour operators can become part of the destination experience.

The company believes this structure can create a scalable ecosystem connecting:

Virtual Participation → Studio Classes → Local Experiences → Regional Events → Destination Travel

“Our goal is to bring people together while supporting the local businesses that make each destination unique,” John said. “We want our events to create new opportunities for local fitness studios, restaurants, hotels, attractions and other businesses.”

Planned Use of Seed Capital

As EscapeSquid enters its next stage and as part of its planned market rollout, EscapeSquid intends to host kickoff dinners and fitness evening events in select U.S. cities, with event details expected to be announced later in 2026. Initial markets are expected to include Nashville, Tennessee; Portland, Oregon; Anaheim, California; Dallas, Texas; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Chicago, Illinois; and New York City, New York. The events are intended to introduce the EscapeSquid experience while bringing together participants, local fitness operators, hospitality partners and other local businesses.

The $2.5 million seed initiative is intended to help EscapeSquid move into its next stage of growth. The company plans to use the funding to expand its technology, grow fitness and studio partnerships, build its hospitality and travel network, and launch local and destination events in select U.S. markets.
