LOS ANGELES, Oct. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — FF EAI Robotics Ecosystem Inc. (NASDAQ: FFR) (“FFR” or the “Company”), a U.S.-based Embodied AI (EAI) robotics company, today highlighted a weekly business update from YT Jia, Founder and Global CEO of Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFAI) (“Faraday Future” or “FF”). For purposes of attribution, references to “we,” “our,” and “FF” in the following transcript refer to FFAI and its robotics business, except where FFR named.
“Welcome to Weekly Report 77. This week, let’s start with some big news from FFR. On October 26, we will hold FFR’s listing ceremony and first Investor Day at the Nasdaq Tower in New York. Our management team will share more about our strategy and business plans. We’ll also have the chance to talk with investors face to face. To our stockholders and partners, we hope you can join us and help open this new chapter for FFR. Formal invitations to the event will go out tomorrow! Now, let me share what we’ve been working on this week.
This week, FFR and FFAI jointly launched three new offerings.
1. Two new EAI Devices. The first is FF Nova—America’s first entry-level EAI humanoid robot under $2,500. Your Physical AI lab in a backpack. The Nova device costs $2,490, and the Developer Skills Package is $390. The second is Nova Mini, our humanoid robot for foundational Physical AI education. The robot is priced at $299, and the accompanying curriculum is $499. With these additions, the “One-Brain Multi-Form Multi-Capability” FF EAI Robot World 2.0 we are building now includes more than 20 EAI Devices across 11 models, seven series, and three robot forms.
2. A new FF EAI Education Skills product—the “Physical AI Spark Program Curriculum.”
3. The Nova Reinforcement Learning Developer Program. We also opened enrollment in our developer community.
Our EAI Brain and Developer Platform Cores also made two breakthroughs this week.
Regarding the EAI brain, The All-New Futurist now fully supports SONIC. That opens up more room for development and applications on more advanced robotics platforms. This is how our approach of combining in-house development with open collaboration is starting to deliver more value.
On the Developer Platform side, we’ve made the NVIDIA SONIC data, models, and deployment solutions based on FF Master fully open source through GitHub and Hugging Face. What does that mean for developers? You now have a complete path from open-source research and testing algorithms to deploying robots and building solutions. And that path is open to universities, research institutions, and industry partners around the world, too.
Over the past few days, we’ve received some questions from stockholders about FFR’s acquisition of FFAI’s robotics business and its independent public listing. Let me take a moment to clarify a few points and explain what this means. Giving the robotics business its own operations, financing, and public listing is much more than moving assets within FFAI. It fundamentally reshapes FFR and unlocks its value. We see this as the starting point for a major breakthrough in business value and a faster release of value in the capital markets. Let me explain this in four areas.
One is a sharper strategic focus. We will concentrate our resources on delivering our “Four-Core Full-Stack AI” robotics strategy. Every dollar we invest, every decision we make, and every financing round will serve that goal. This focus will help us refine what we do, deepen our expertise, expand our scale, and strengthen our business.
Another is a clearer basis for valuation. With its own public listing as a pure-play robotics business, FFR can be valued directly against its industry peers. Its valuation will no longer be held back by other factors affecting FFAI. Combined with continued deliveries at positive contribution margins, this gives FFR significant room to unlock value.
We will also have more transparent business results and cleaner financial statements. You will be able to see how each financing round translates into business performance. That transparency can help attract strategic investors and long-term capital. After closing, FFR will have almost no debt. Its balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement will be cleaner, making the company’s value easier to see.
The fourth area is lower funding needs and financing costs. FFR has seven unique advantages, including our “Four-Core Full-Stack AI” EAI technology and asset-light operating model. Building on these strengths, we aim to achieve positive operating cash flow no later than the third quarter of 2028. Until then, we expect to need no more than $150 million in total financing.
For FFAI, once the transaction closes, we will remain FFR’s controlling and majority stockholder and continue to share in its potential future growth in value. As a Physical AI investment company following a Berkshire-style model, FFAI will share further business updates soon. We want to reward our stockholders for your continued support.
Over the years, we’ve received encouragement, faced ridicule, and taken harsh criticism, yet we’ve seldom felt the need to explain ourselves. Our passion for building a business is still there. It comes from working alongside people who share our vision, and driving change in the industry together. Failure itself doesn’t stop us. What stops us is losing the belief that we can try again. “Try again.” A message to myself, and to every entrepreneur who keeps going. Thank you for being part of this journey. See you next week.”

Unity: The Convergence of the Three Main Red Army Forces
Published
24 minutes agoon
October 21, 2026By
BEIJING, Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — An interview from China.org.cn with Wang Xiaohui and David Ferguson on the Long March:
Wang Xiaohui:
We have all been through something similar — a group of people disagreeing with one another, with each side holding sound reasons to believe their own judgment is correct.
In such moments, should they part ways, or find another path forward together?
David Ferguson:
The word “unity” is often understood as a strategy. People unite when they face a common enemy, and when that enemy disappears, the cooperation ends with it. But I’ve always wondered if there is a different kind of unity — one not forged by a common enemy, but by a common destination. A unity that isn’t temporary, that doesn’t fall apart the moment circumstances change. I wanted to find out.
Wang Xiaohui:
An arduous expedition like the Long March posed unparalleled trials for any military unit.
Bitter cold on snow-capped mountains, hidden mire across marshlands, and dangers lurking every step of the way; food and warm clothes were constantly scarce, while enemies and artillery fire were relentless. Even so, through the Long March, these poorly equipped and raggedly dressed Red Army troops remained tightly bonded as one.
This bond was not coerced by harsh military discipline, but arose spontaneously from every soldier’s heart. Before they even set off, shared ideals and conviction had already taken deep root within every soldier, steeling their resolve to follow the Communist Party of China without hesitation. Along the trail, officers and soldiers of the Red Army ate from the same pots and wore uniforms made from the same coarse cloth. High-ranking commanders like Zhu De and Peng Dehuai covered most of the journey on foot alongside their troops, leaving their horses to the ill and wounded, while splitting their last rations with soldiers. Amid food shortages, even when columns in the front discovered edible greens, they would never dig them all up; instead, they sent words to rear units so that all troops could share.
The Red Army’s unity took root in shared ideals, flourished under equal treatment for all, and was forged through countless moments of entrusting each other with their lives. It also became the unshakable foundation that carried them through every ordeal.
In the late autumn of 1936, the Loess Plateau in northwestern China witnessed two hopeful rendezvous, marking the Long March’s triumphant close. First in Huining, soldiers of the First and Fourth Front Armies embraced in a long-awaited reunion. Just over 10 days later, at Jiangtaibu, the waiting First Front Army finally greeted the travel-worn soldiers of the Second Front Army.
Many of these soldiers had never met before, yet they greeted one another like long-lost brothers, eyes brimming with tears as they clasped hands. Officers and soldiers of the First Front Army sent whatever supplies they had saved up to their brother troops. Three battle-hardened columns merged into a mighty iron stream across the plateau. Just one month later, they fought in coordinated formation to secure triumph in the battle of Shanchengbao, putting a glorious full stop to the Long March.
When scattered sparks merge, inherent unity surges into a mighty force, powerful enough to rewrite an army’s fate and shift the course of a nation’s history.
At the time, Japanese invaders advanced deeper into China, occupying more and more territory, yet the civil war persisted. The CPC clearly understood that brutal conflict among the Chinese would only play to the invaders’ hands, and only national unity could safeguard the motherland. The CPC publicly called for an end to the civil war and joint resistance against Japanese invaders, officially proposed to build the national united front against Japanese aggression, and even took the initiative to halt military operations and withdraw troops as a gesture of goodwill — when the survival of a nation hung by a thread, they chose to unite all Chinese people.
The two KMT officers, Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng, who were stationed in the northwest, witnessed the nation’s peril and were touched by the CPC’s advocacy of a united resistance. Resolved to collaborate with the CPC to fend off Japanese aggression, Zhang and Yang repeatedly pleaded with Chiang Kai-shek to shift focus to national defense, but to no avail. Ultimately, they detained Chiang by force, which later became known as the Xi’an Incident.
When word spread of Chiang’s detention, many assumed the CPC would demand a public trial, given years of bitter partisan strife. Instead, Zhou Enlai personally traveled to Xi’an with the CPC delegation to mediate, laying out the stakes for all parties concerned: executing Chiang would only result in a much larger-scale civil war, handing the Japanese aggressors golden opportunities to advance further into China. The only path to a promising future for the Chinese nation lay in a peaceful settlement that would compel Chiang to join the resistance against Japanese aggression.
Setting aside partisan divisions and prioritizing the supreme interests of the nation — this was the answer delivered by the CPC. At last, the Xi’an Incident was settled in peace, bringing an end to a decade of war. Since then, the Chinese nation finally stood united in fighting back against foreign invasion.
Nearly a century has passed, yet the spirit of unity forged on the Long March has never faded.
In September 1949, the First Plenary Session of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) was convened, officially instituting the system of multiparty cooperation and political consultation under the leadership of the Communist Party of China. The spirit of solidarity tempered amid the Long March was thereafter embedded in the very fabric of China’s governance system, with unity becoming one of its enduring tenets.
From the early reconstruction years since the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949, through the era of reform and opening up since 1978, to today’s march toward China’s modernization, each successive trial has burnished this core spirit of unity. In the fight against absolute poverty, the whole nation pulled together as a single force: the more developed eastern regions lent robust support to underdeveloped western regions, officials devoted themselves to working at grassroots communities, and local residents worked hard and strove for self-improvement. Together, hundreds of millions of Chinese worked to eradicate absolute poverty nationwide. When earthquakes and floods struck, rescue teams rushed to disaster zones from every corner of the country, while relief supplies and charitable donations poured in ceaselessly.
From the helping hands extended between soldiers along the Long March to the nationwide solidarity repeatedly demonstrated today, the essence of unity has never changed. It was the key that carried the Red Army through seemingly impossible odds, and it endures as China’s bedrock strength that propels China forward to this day.
David Ferguson:
After hearing the stories of the reunion of the three main forces of the Red Army and the Xi’an Incident, I found my answer.
The Long March showed me that unity is a condition for survival — not in the sense of “I need you for now, so let’s work together.” Rather, it was “We believe in a common cause, so we must stand together.” That kind of unity does not dissolve when the danger is gone, because it is rooted not in fear, but in conviction.
Whether I look at stories of the Long March or at China’s development today, what strikes me is not simply unity itself. What gives unity its power is the shared ideal that enables people to stand together, and the common mission that at critical moments, enables them to rise above the interests of the individual, of groups, and even of political parties.
Wang Xiaohui:
From the arduous trails of the Long March to the contemporary journey of national rejuvenation, when a group of people or a whole nation stand united around common ideals, they will always arrive at the future they hoped for, no matter how lengthy and winding the road ahead is.

CEO Comment
We are making solid progress on our strategic priorities. Our cost savings program remains on track, recent product launches are receiving encouraging customer feedback, and we are broadening our presence across sales channels. Although these measures have not yet fully offset current market headwinds, they reinforce our confidence in the Group’s long-term competitiveness and prospects.
Financial performance summary
Net sales were SEK 9,012m (9,204), representing an organic decline of 5% in the quarter, primarily driven by continued weakness in Europe. Organic sales in the Husqvarna Forest & Garden Division declined by 10%, sales in the Husqvarna Construction Division were unchanged, while the Gardena Division delivered solid organic growth of 8%. Performance in the Husqvarna Forest & Garden Division was significantly affected by the widespread drought across large parts of Europe and continued weak consumer demand in key markets, including Germany and France. In contrast, strong growth in the Gardena Division’s Watering business highlighted the resilience of our diversified portfolio, gaining market shares in key markets, and the Husqvarna Construction Division has continued good momentum in its aftermarket business. I am also encouraged by continued growth across all three divisions in North America.
Operating income excluding IAC was SEK -246m (140), corresponding to a margin of -2.7% (1.5). The result reflected lower volumes in the Husqvarna Forest & Garden Division, an unfavorable product mix, inventory reductions and cost increases on raw materials and logistics costs. Free operating cash flow was stable at SEK 2,422m (2,423), as lower operating income was offset by changes in working capital, primarily driven by reduced inventories. We further strengthened the balance sheet, reducing net debt to SEK 9.4bn (9.9).
Executing on cost savings while navigating cost headwinds
Our transformative cost savings program remains on track to deliver SEK 3bn in gross savings by the end of 2028. Year-to-date savings reached approximately SEK 935m, including around SEK 305m in the third quarter, driven mainly by sourcing activities and personnel reductions. However, lower volumes, inventory reductions and cost headwinds continue to weigh on profitability. We are responding with targeted price increases, supply chain actions and product cost optimization, which will partly offset these pressures, although near-term headwinds are expected to remain.
We are advancing our asset-light strategy through further outsourcing initiatives. We will transfer production of selected Husqvarna-branded battery handheld products from Europe to Asia, using both our own facilities and external partners to enhance efficiency and competitiveness.
In addition, the ongoing discontinuation of the stone diamond tool business in the Construction Division, the phase-out of our Brastad component factory in the Husqvarna Forest & Garden Division and relocation of selected activities within Gardena’s European manufacturing network are progressing according to plan.
Unlocking the next phase of robotics growth
Our robotic lawn mowing business faced a difficult quarter, with adverse weather, competitive headwinds, and elevated channel partner inventories in Europe constraining demand for Husqvarna- and Gardena-branded products. Although recent performance has fallen short of expectations, we remain the clear market leader and we are confident in our strategy and longer-term development.
The strategic review of the Powered Garden BPU in the Gardena Division is ongoing and we aim to provide an update in the beginning of next year. Our priorities in the Husqvarna Forest & Garden Residential Robotics BPU include expanding our retail footprint and product range across price points and channels, strengthening the robotics organization and development model.
During the quarter, the US became the largest market in terms of sales for our Professional Robotics BPU, driven mainly by continued growth in the golf segment. Upcoming product launches and broader US distribution are expected to further strengthen our competitive position next season. We are also encouraged to be the first robotics company to receive conditional approval from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for foreign-produced advanced robotic devices in the US market.
Building a stronger, more competitive Husqvarna Group
We are accelerating change across the Group to create a leaner, more agile and asset-light organization. By challenging established ways of working, simplifying operations and acting decisively, we are strengthening competitiveness and profitability in the longer-term. Significant work remains, but I am confident we are moving in the right direction.
When consumer sentiment recovers, particularly in Europe, we will be well positioned to capture growth and improve earnings.
