Just Women’s Sports Acquires Victra Sports, Launches Mobile App And New Sports-Specific Channels

Published

on

The strategic investments cap a landmark year of growth for the company, following new funding, league partnerships and a rapid expansion of its programming slate.

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Just Women’s Sports (JWS), the leading media brand dedicated to women’s sports, today announced three major milestones in a single year of rapid expansion: the launch of the JWS mobile app; the acquisition of Victra Sports, a women’s sports technology company; and the debut of new sport-specific sub-brands in basketball and soccer.

Together, the moves represent the next stage of JWS’s evolution from a media brand into the central digital infrastructure for women’s sports, giving a rapidly-growing fanbase a single destination to follow the games, teams, leagues and stories they care about.

The JWS app is now available on the Apple App Store and Google Play. Download it HERE.

JWS now reaches more than 115 million people each month across its digital and social platforms, with an owned audience of more than 6 million followers. The company’s mission is to build on that scale by onboarding the next 10 million women’s sports fans, creating an accessible entry point for new fans while building deeper products for the audience already driving the industry’s growth.

A new home for women’s sports fans

The JWS app gives fans a dedicated home for live scores, schedules, statistics, personalized accounts, push notifications and JWS’s original editorial and video coverage.

Built on technology acquired through Victra Sports, which was founded by Haro Trenkler and Anna Malepeai, the app goes beyond aggregating information already available elsewhere. It combines JWS’s own content and scoreboard with real-time statistics and analytics, addressing a longstanding gap in how fans are able to follow and understand the games.

“Women’s sports is entering a fundamentally different era,” said Haley Rosen, Founder and CEO of Just Women’s Sports. “More people than ever have access to the games, but the digital experience still hasn’t caught up with the growth of the industry. We’ve spent years building one of the largest audiences in women’s sports. Now we’re building the infrastructure that this audience needs.”

Building brands around individual sports

Alongside the app, JWS is launching Just Women’s Hoops and Just Women’s Football, two new sport-specific brands. Each will feature its own editorial voice, programming and community dedicated exclusively to its sport.

The strategy represents a different approach from legacy sports media companies, which have traditionally built women’s sports verticals within brands organized primarily around men’s sports. JWS is instead expanding from a platform already dedicated entirely to women’s sports, creating specialized brands around the individual sports and fan communities driving the industry forward.

“Other platforms treat the whole of women’s sports as a single bucket,” said Rosen. “We know women’s sports is bigger than that, and launching dedicated communities is a huge step toward building an ecosystem that can serve this entire space.”

Investing in the next era of women’s sports

The announcements cap a landmark year for JWS. The company raised a new funding round, became an official Emerging Media Partner of the WNBA, deepened its longstanding NWSL partnership, and partnered with Monarch Commerce to revamp its merch store.

Just Women’s Sports Inc. (JWS) is a digital-first consumer media brand dedicated to 100% women’s sports, 100% of the time. Through original programming, digital media, and editorial coverage, JWS makes it both easy and fun to be a women’s sports fan.

Taoping Receives Nasdaq Notification Regarding Minimum Bid Price Deficiency

Published

on

By

TIANJIN, China, Oct. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Taoping Inc. (Nasdaq: TAOP, the “Company”), a provider of cloud-based smart city, Internet of Things and intelligent infrastructure solutions, today announced that on October 13, 2026, it received a written notification letter (the “Notification Letter”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), notifying the Company that it is currently not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), which requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of US$1.00 per share.

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides that a failure to meet the minimum bid price requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive business days. Based on the closing bid price of the Company’s ordinary shares for the 30 consecutive business days from August 31, 2026 through October 12, 2026, the Company no longer meets the minimum bid price requirement. This press release is issued pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), which requires prompt disclosure of receipt of the Notification Letter.

Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until April 12, 2027 (the “Compliance Period”), to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement. If at any time during the Compliance Period the closing bid price of the Company’s ordinary shares is at least US$1.00 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company with written confirmation of compliance and the matter will be closed. However, if at any time during the Compliance Period the closing bid price of the Company’s ordinary shares is US$0.10 or less for ten consecutive trading days, Nasdaq will issue a delisting determination with respect to the Company’s ordinary shares pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iii). If the Company chooses to implement a reverse stock split, it must complete the split no later than ten business days prior to April 12, 2027 in order to regain compliance.

In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement by April 12, 2027, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day grace period. To qualify, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary, to Nasdaq. If the Company does not qualify for the second compliance period or fails to regain compliance during the second 180-day period, then Nasdaq will notify the Company of its determination to delist the Company’s ordinary shares, at which point the Company will have an opportunity to appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel.

The Notification Letter has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s ordinary shares, which will continue to trade uninterrupted on Nasdaq under the ticker “TAOP”.

The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of the ordinary shares and may, if appropriate, consider implementing available options to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).
