  • 12,000+ Patients, One Mission: Building Brighter Futures in Recovery

    12,000+ Patients, One Mission: Building Brighter Futures in Recovery

    Through personalized, evidence-based programs, the Boynton Beach facility continues its mission to help individuals overcome addiction and rebuild their lives.

    BOYNTON BEACH, FL / ACCESS Newswire / November 13, 2025 / Bright Futures Treatment Center is proud to announce a major milestone – more than 12,000 patients treated through its addiction and mental health recovery programs. This achievement reflects years of consistent work across Florida to provide real support for people facing substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. Located in Boynton Beach, the center serves individuals from across the region who are ready to take the next step toward long-term recovery. Each patient treated represents a personalized plan of care, designed to meet real-life needs and deliver lasting change. This number is more than a statistic. It shows how the center continues to make a real difference in people’s lives through direct, evidence-based treatment.

    A Personalized Approach That Drives Results

    The programs behind this milestone combine structured treatment methods with flexible care plans that adjust to each person’s needs. At Bright Futures Treatment Center, patients receive support through a combination of medically assisted treatment, dual diagnosis care, and wellness-based services. These methods work together to help people manage substance use and address related mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, or trauma.

    The medical team uses approved medications to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms, making the early stages of recovery more manageable. Alongside this, licensed professionals provide therapy for both addiction and mental health, recognizing how these issues often overlap. Physical activity, nutrition guidance, and mindfulness sessions round out the program to support overall stability.

    Each person gets a treatment plan designed for their situation, background, and goals. This flexible model reflects the center’s long-standing message – building brighter futures is possible when recovery is personal, structured, and consistent.

    A Mission Rooted in Real Transformation

    Every milestone tells a story of dedication, and for Bright Futures Treatment Center, that story revolves around transformation. The team continues to remind patients that recovery is more than abstinence-it’s a full renewal of body, mind, and purpose. Staff members describe their mission as helping people rebuild confidence, restore self-worth, and reconnect with life in meaningful ways.

    This approach reflects the center’s guiding belief that “recovery means creating a life worth living,” as expressed in their mission statement. The message applies to every patient who walks through their doors. It drives staff to go beyond clinical care and focus on practical progress, accountability, and emotional healing.

    The organization operates on the principle that successful treatment depends on continuous guidance and a real human connection. The staff provides structure, motivation, and education so that each person develops long-term tools for success. They view recovery as a team effort that extends beyond the program’s walls, encouraging patients to carry what they learn into daily life.

    In line with that vision, Bright Futures continues to expand programs that promote lasting recovery through evidence-based therapy, community involvement, and aftercare planning. “Our mission is not just treatment – it’s transformation,” the team often emphasizes. This statement captures what the center stands for: turning the process of recovery into a pathway toward lasting change, independence, and hope.

    Lighting the Path Ahead

    Bright Futures Treatment Center continues to support recovery by working with insurance providers, expanding access to care, and developing new program features based on patient feedback. The team remains focused on helping people build stable, long-term outcomes. As they mark the 12,000-patient milestone, their goal stays the same: to provide real tools, personalized care, and a clear path forward for anyone ready to begin recovery. Every step taken today helps light the pathway for those who come next.

  • “Ethical Wealth” Gets an Upgrade as SMX and trueGold Turn Gold Into Verified Material

    “Ethical Wealth” Gets an Upgrade as SMX and trueGold Turn Gold Into Verified Material

    NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / November 14, 2025 / Gold has always enjoyed a reputation it never had to justify. It symbolized beauty, stability, and power. The world accepted its story without ever asking for evidence. That era is ending. Modern buyers want credentials. Regulators want verification. Brands want trust they can prove.

    This is the environment where SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) and its majority-owned subsidiary, trueGold, are rewriting the rules of precious metals. They are not polishing old systems. They are introducing an entirely new way to authenticate luxury materials at the molecular level.

    trueGold’s patented marker technology sits at the center of the shift. Every bit of gold receives an invisible molecular signature that stays with it from the moment it leaves the mine. It can’t be removed. It can’t be counterfeited. And, it can’t be separated from the material. When the gold is refined, alloyed, melted, recast, or recycled, the signature stays alive. SMX’s registry records each step, making the metal self-verifying. Gold gains a memory.

    Luxury With Verification Built In
    Luxury brands have always sold a story. Now the buyers expect receipts. Surveys from IBM and PwC show that traceability is no longer a novelty. It is a feature that commands real premiums. Consumers want proof of where their gold came from, how it was sourced, and whether any part of it is recycled.

    trueGold gives them that in a single scan. Jewelers, watchmakers, and investors can instantly confirm the origin and authenticity of a piece through a digital passport linked to its molecular marker. The result is a piece of gold that carries its own history as part of its value. Sustainability is no longer marketing language. It becomes a quantifiable attribute of the product itself.

    For brands that live or die on reputation, that is a meaningful shift. Verified provenance becomes a competitive edge rather than an optional claim.

    Trust With Scientific Backing
    The entire system rests on one essential truth: the science must withstand every attempt to challenge it. That is why SMX submitted its molecular-marker technology to one of the most rigorous evaluation frameworks available. Independent validation by Intertek, conducted under the globally recognized AnchorCert Pro 2 protocol, confirmed the marker’s safety and stability across the United States, Canada, Europe, and other major regulatory jurisdictions. The results were unequivocal.

    The marker is chemically inert. It does not react with skin, air, moisture, or alloys. It remains invisible even under close inspection and carries no sensory footprint. And, it does not change the weight, density, purity, or color of gold in any measurable way.

    That level of scientific neutrality is what allows the technology to strengthen trust without interfering with craft. A jeweler can set a diamond, polish a bracelet, or finish a watch case exactly as artisans have done for centuries, and the marker remains present yet undetectable. Nothing about the metal’s hallmark, shine, or aesthetic signature is altered. The artistry and metallurgy stay untouched, but the authenticity becomes undeniable.

    This blend of tradition and technology is what makes the approach so powerful. The gold behaves exactly as it always has in the hands of creators and consumers, yet it carries an invisible layer of assurance that lifts it beyond the limits of conventional verification. The piece still feels precious. It still looks flawless. It still holds emotional and financial value. The only thing that changes is the level of certainty surrounding it. Trust becomes empirical, not assumed – a natural extension of the metal itself rather than an external promise pinned to it.

    Closing the Gaps the Industry Learned to Ignore
    That’s a timely addition. The precious metals industry has long been held together by paperwork and trust between intermediaries. Certificates can be misplaced. Audits can be flawed. Supply chains are often global webs with far too many blind spots.

    trueGold replaces assumption with evidence. Each transfer is logged in a single digital record. The marker cannot be forged or edited. The chain of custody is no longer a theoretical line on a PDF. It becomes a material fact embedded in the metal itself.

    This level of clarity matters to institutional buyers too. It supports ESG disclosures, aligns with LBMA expectations, and positions brands for the incoming European Union Digital Product Passport requirements. Compliance with true verification becomes simpler and cheaper.

    The Start of a Circular Precious Metals Economy
    What makes this breakthrough more significant is its permanence. Since the marker survives the recycling process, gold can re-enter the supply chain with its identity intact. The industry gets a circular economy with proof, not guesswork.

    The same gold that served one generation can serve the next without losing its story. Longevity becomes traceable and sustainability becomes searchable. For centuries, gold has been timeless. Now it is also transparent. And that combination has the potential to reshape how the world defines ethical wealth.

    SMX and trueGold have taken a material known for permanence and added something more powerful. They gave it a voice, a history, and the ability to prove itself. And in a market that values trust as much as shine, that may end up being the most valuable feature of all.

  • TRNR Reports Record Third Quarter 2025 Results with 139% YoY Growth; Reiterates 2025 Pro Forma Revenue Guidance of $80M+ To Be Driven by Completion of Sportstech Acquisition

    TRNR Reports Record Third Quarter 2025 Results with 139% YoY Growth; Reiterates 2025 Pro Forma Revenue Guidance of $80M+ To Be Driven by Completion of Sportstech Acquisition

    Quarterly Results Reflect First Full Quarter Including Wattbike (Acquisition Closed July 1)

    Company Reports Record Quarterly Revenue of $4.8 Million; Net Loss and Loss per Diluted Share of $5.2 Million and $3.11; Quarterly Adjusted EBITDA Loss of $2.9 million, Due to Low Inventory Availability

    Sportstech Acquisition Expected to Close in 2025 Based on Key Closing Milestone Achievements

    Reiterates 2025 Pro Forma Revenue Guidance of more than $80 million and Fourth Quarter Profitability Guidance

    AUSTIN, TEXAS / ACCESS Newswire / November 14, 2025 / Interactive Strength Inc. (Nasdaq:TRNR) (“TRNR” or the “Company”), maker of innovative specialty fitness equipment under the Wattbike, CLMBR and FORME brands, and pending acquirer of Sportstech, today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

    Quarterly Financial Highlights

    For the quarter, TRNR reported record revenue of $4.8 million, representing 139% YoY growth, a net loss of $5.2 million – or $3.11 per diluted share – and an adjusted EBITDA loss of $2.9 million (non-GAAP). Results this quarter include Wattbike (closed July 1), but not Sportstech, which is still in the closing process. However, if Sportstech had been included in the third quarter, TRNR revenue would have been approximately $18 million.

    Outlook

    TRNR is reiterating its full‑year 2025 pro forma revenue guidance of more than $80 million, driven by the stronger-than-expected-performance at Sportstech year-to-date and the expectation that the acquisition will close this year. TRNR is also reiterating its guidance that it expects to achieve pro forma Adjusted EBITDA profitability in the fourth quarter. TRNR’s new CFO, Caleb Morgret, will succeed Mike Madigan as of the filing of the Company’s 10-Q after market close today.

    Sportstech Performance and Acquisition

    Based on achieving certain key closing milestones this month, TRNR expects that the Sportstech acquisition will successfully close this year. Further details will be shared with investors over the next few weeks as both Companies work towards completing this transformational combination.

    Sportstech previously announced third quarter revenue of approximately $13 million and a third-quarter EBITDA margin increase of more than 200bps YoY, leading to an LTM EBITDA margin of more than 10%.

    Trent Ward, Co-Founder and CEO stated: “Q3 revenue growth of 139% is starting to demonstrate the potential of our platform as we progress towards greater scale, thanks to closing Wattbike. We have kicked off cost savings initiatives to harvest group synergies and we remain excited to see that work start to come through in reported financials.”

    “Most importantly, we have made tremendous progress on closing the Sportstech acquisition, and we expect that we will complete the transaction in 2025,” Mr. Ward continued. “The addition of our new CFO, Caleb, who is based in Europe and German-speaking, has been a key factor in the acceleration of progress on the closing procedures. Despite the delay, Sportstech has continued to perform above expectations, and we are very excited to complete this transformational acquisition very soon.”

    Mr. Ward continued: “We are confident that, on a pro forma basis, the group will have more than $80 million in 2025 revenue as well as turn profitable in the fourth quarter. Lastly, we want to express our utmost appreciation for the efforts of Mike Madigan over the past three years – he has done an incredible job and is leaving us in a strong position.”

    For more commentary, information and details of TRNR’s strategy, as well as to sign up for direct updates, see the Company’s investor website, latest FAQs and required filings with the US Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC). TRNR expects to issue a shareholder letter within the next week or two.

The inclusion of our website address or the address of any third-party sites in this press release are intended as inactive textual references only.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures
    In addition to our results determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, we believe the following non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance.

    The Company’s non-GAAP financial measure in this press release consist of Adjusted EBITDA, which we define as net (loss) income, adjusted to exclude: other expense (income), net; income tax expense (benefit); depreciation and amortization expense; stock-based compensation expense; (gain) loss on debt extinguishment; vendor settlements; and transaction related expenses.

    The Company believes the above adjusted financial measures help facilitate analysis of operating performance and the operating leverage in our business. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors for period-to-period comparisons of our business and in understanding and evaluating our operating results for the following reasons:

    • Adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors and securities analysts to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, other expense (income), net, and provision for income taxes that can vary substantially from company to company depending upon their financing, capital structures, and the method by which assets were acquired;

    • Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget, as a measure of our core operating results and the effectiveness of our business strategy, and in evaluating our financial performance; and

    • Adjusted EBITDA provides consistency and comparability with our past financial performance, facilitate period-to-period comparisons of our core operating results, and may also facilitate comparisons with other peer companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results.

    Our use of Adjusted EBITDA, or any other non-GAAP financial measures we may use in the future, is presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered as a substitute for, or in isolation from, our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. Some of these limitations are, or may in the future be, as follows:

    • Although depreciation and amortization expense are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;

    • Adjusted EBITDA excludes stock-based compensation expense, which has recently been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense for our business and an important part of our compensation strategy;

    • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (1) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (2) interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt, which reduces cash available to us; or (3) tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;

    • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect impairment charges for fixed assets and capitalized content, and gains (losses) on disposals for fixed assets;

    • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect (gains) losses associated with debt extinguishments.

    • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect losses associated with vendor settlements.

    • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect transaction related expenses for CLMBR and Wattbike acquisitions and pending acquisition of Sportstech.

    • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect noncash fair value gains (losses) on convertible notes, derivatives, warrants and unrealized currency gains (losses).

    Further, the non-GAAP financial measures presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the way that these measures are calculated. For example, the expenses and other items that we exclude in our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from the expenses and other items, if any, that other companies may exclude from Adjusted EBITDA when they report their operating results. Because companies in our industry may calculate such measures differently than we do, their usefulness as comparative measures is limited. Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should be considered along with other operating and financial performance measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

    Forward Looking Statements:

    This press release includes certain statements that are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements do not relate strictly to historical or current facts and reflect management’s assumptions, views, plans, objectives and projections about the future. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believe”, “project”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “intend”, “strategy”, “future”, “opportunity”, “plan”, “may”, “should”, “will”, “would”, “will be”, “will continue”, “will likely result” or similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding, the possibility of acquiring future businesses or completing the referenced pending transaction in 2025, a timely manner or at all, the financial performance of those acquisitions and the resulting guidance of having more than $80m of pro forma revenue in 2025, achieving profitability in Q4, and the financial performance of the acquisition targets which have not been audited or reviewed by a PCAOB auditor and could vary materially (a) once that audit or review work is completed and such financials are included in the Company’s reported financials and (b) due to the effect of the exchange rates of foreign currencies which can be volatile, or that the Company’s 10-Q will be filed today or that the business is in a strong position with the departure of the CFO. The reader is cautioned not to rely on these forward-looking statements. These statements are based on current expectations of future events. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results could vary materially from the expectations and projections of the Company. Risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to: demand for our products and the products of the acquisition targets if the acquisitions are completed (collectively, the “Products”); competition, including technological advances made by and new products released by our competitors and the competitors of the acquisition targets; our ability to accurately forecast consumer demand for our Products and adequately maintain our inventory; and our reliance on a limited number of suppliers and distributors for our Products. A further list and descriptions of these risks, uncertainties and other factors can be found in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. To the extent permitted under applicable law, the Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

  • Singapore Is Building Its National Plastics Passport on SMX Technology, Creating a Model the World Can Follow

    Singapore Is Building Its National Plastics Passport on SMX Technology, Creating a Model the World Can Follow

    NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / November 14, 2025 / Recycling has always carried the right intentions, but it has never had the right architecture. For decades, governments, corporations, and global coalitions promised transformation while relying on a patchwork system that could not support the weight of their ambitions. The structure buckled not because of a lack of commitment, but because the foundation was never strong enough to meet the world’s demands.

    That is why Singapore’s decision to move forward with the construction of a national plastics passport, powered by SMX’s (NASDAQ:SMX) molecular identification technology, marks such a fundamental turning point. It signals a shift from circularity as aspiration to circularity as infrastructure – a step that transforms plastics from an ungoverned commodity into a governed resource with identity, accountability, and economic value.

    This isn’t a re-announcement. It is the stage where the vision becomes the system.

    A System Finally Designed to Work
    The reason recycling struggled was never mysterious. Every region wrote its own definitions. Every audit relied on subjective interpretation. Every claim existed only on labels and spreadsheets. Plastics moved across borders without consistent rules, and companies had no way to prove that the materials they sourced truly met the standards they were required to uphold.

    Singapore is correcting that flaw at the structural level. By embedding SMX’s molecular identity into the polymers themselves, the country is engineering a reality in which plastics report their own truth. Every item moving through collection, sorting, and recycling carries an immutable passport that confirms its composition and its history. Oversight no longer depends on documentation. Enforcement no longer waits for audits. Compliance no longer hinges on trust.

    For the first time, the system is built for accuracy instead of approximation.

    A Blueprint Designed for ASEAN, Not Just Singapore
    Singapore has a long history of shaping international standards, from finance to digital governance. Its approach to plastics is following the same trajectory. By deploying a plastics passport as a national layer, the country is creating a framework that surrounding markets can adopt without reinventing their own systems.

    The opportunity is enormous. As ASEAN economies build new recycling mandates and push for certified recycled materials, they can plug into a model already proven at the national level. Analysts estimate that the new infrastructure could support billions in annual value across verified materials, authenticated supply chains, and digital circular-economy incentives. The momentum is regional because the standard is universal.

    What works in Singapore can work anywhere that materials must move with traceable identities – across borders, across sectors, across regulators.

    A Shift From Narrative to Measurable Reality
    Governments want evidence that environmental policy delivers measurable returns. Brands want protection from greenwashing scrutiny. Investors want compliance they can price. And, consumers want sustainability they can trust.

    As it stands, all of them struggle without verification at the material level.

    SMX solves that by giving plastics a memory – not metaphorically, but chemically. The polymer itself becomes the point of truth. When recycled content is claimed, it can be confirmed instantly. When safety standards are required, they can be validated at the product level. When recycled feedstock enters manufacturing, its identity is authenticated without argument.

    This transforms circularity from a communications strategy into a functioning economic layer. Recycling stops being a plea. It becomes a governed system with defined value, defined identity, and defined enforcement.

    The Transition From Goodwill to Governance
    This moment is not about punishing the past. It is about replacing a fragile architecture with one capable of delivering the circular future policymakers, brands, and communities have been demanding for years. Singapore’s deployment of a plastics passport marks the point when the world stops relying on declarations and starts relying on design.

    SMX is at the heart of that shift. Its molecular technology embeds verification into the physical reality of plastics, turning the material itself into the recordkeeper. It is not a promise. It is not a projection. It is a national system in motion – one that ASEAN markets are already preparing to replicate.

    Circularity finally has its operating manual. Plastics finally have an identity. And sustainability finally has a system grounded in truth rather than trust.

    Greenlane Reports Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

    BOCA RATON, FLORIDA / ACCESS Newswire / November 14, 2025 / Greenlane Holdings, Inc. (“Greenlane” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:GNLN), a Berachain-focused digital asset treasury company and global seller of premium cannabis accessories, today reported its financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025 along with an update on the expansion of the Company’s Berachain (BERA) treasury strategy.

    BERA is the fee token of Berachain, the first Layer 1 blockchain powered by Proof of Liquidity (PoL) to help businesses scale and power on-chain economies. PoL provides BERA with a staking yield derived from the revenues or ownership of companies on the network.

    In late October 2025, Greenlane executed a strategic shift – adopting a treasury reserve strategy with BERA as the Company’s primary asset. Greenlane’s goal is to give investors a simplified way to participate in what management believes will be Berachain’s transformation of global finance, with institutional-grade discipline, transparency, and full activation of Berachain’s yield potential. Greenlane is strategically accumulating BERA and employing active treasury management and staking. The result is yield-generating BERA treasury that aims to compound growth and capture the full upside exposure of BERA.

    While the Company advances its digital-asset strategy and treasury operations, it will continue to operate its distribution business, enhance operational efficiencies and continue inventory monetization to accelerate the disposition of aged inventory.

    Key Highlights Since Launch of BERA Treasury Strategy

    • Built world class leadership team:

      • Bruce Linton, previously led Canopy Growth Corporation to a $15B market capitalization and has extensive experience in leading companies across communications and cleantech, joined as Chairman of the Board.

      • Billy Levy, a serial entrepreneur and capital markets executive with a history of building, scaling, and exiting companies across multiple industries, including co-founding Virgin Gaming in collaboration with Sir Richard Branson, appointed as a director.

      • Ben Isenberg, appointed as Chief Investment Officer to manage the BERA treasury strategy. Isenberg also serves as Founder and Principal of BSQD Corp., a market-making and proprietary trading firm specializing in digital assets and cryptocurrencies. In this role, Mr. Isenberg is responsible for the strategic direction and oversight of digital asset trading operations. Prior to this, Isenberg served as a Trader at Tradias GmbH, a BAFIN regulated market maker based in Frankfurt, Germany from 2021- 2024. Before entering the digital asset markets, Isenberg worked in investment banking at M Partners in Toronto, where he covered digital assets, technology and mining from 2019-2021.

    • Formed a Digital Assets Committee in October 2025 comprised of Mr. Levy and Mr. Linton, with Mr. Linton serving as chair.

    • Establishing an experienced team of institutional-grade capital markets and treasury management professionals to operationalize the Company’s strategy with support from leading crypto asset managers and custodians.

    • Raised over $110 million in capital and digital assets through an October 23, 2025 private placement offering to drive BERA acquisitions, resulting in approximately $24.3 of net cash proceeds, approximately $19.0 of stablecoin proceeds, and approximately 54.2 million BERA.

    • The Company intends to manage its BERA tokens to generate yields through staking and activities and to enhance long-term value as the adoption of the BERA token increases.

    Third Quarter 2025 Results Compared to Prior Year Period

    Total revenue of premium cannabis accessories, vape devices, and lifestyle products was $0.74 million compared to $4.0 million in the prior year period.

    Total operating expenses were $4.0 million, compared to $3.6 million in the prior year period.

    Net loss was $8.9 million compared to a net loss of $3.8 million in the prior year period.

    Management completed a comprehensive review of inventory aging and realizability in connection with the Company’s transition under the BERA initiative toward a capital-light, IP-driven operating model. As a result, the Company recorded a $5.0 million non-cash inventory reserve, included in cost of sales, to reflect expected recoveries from legacy product lines.

    As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1.8 million and no borrowings outstanding.

    Subsequent Events

    On October 23, 2025, we closed a $110.7 million private placement consisting of cash and crypto-denominated subscriptions, as disclosed in our Form 8-K filed October 20, 2025. The closing delivered approximately $24.3 million of net cash proceeds and approximately $19.0 million of stablecoin proceeds and resulted in holdings of approximately 54.2 million BERA as of October 23, 2025. These proceeds strengthen near-term liquidity as we execute a strategic shift from the legacy business and transition to our digital-asset treasury model.

  • SMX Has Built the First Digital Identity Layer for Physical Goods, Transforming How the World Buys and Sells

    SMX Has Built the First Digital Identity Layer for Physical Goods, Transforming How the World Buys and Sells

    NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK / ACCESS Newswire / November 14, 2025 / E-commerce was built on speed, convenience, and volume – but not on certainty. As marketplaces grew into global giants, the one thing that never scaled with them was verifiable truth. Authenticity still depended on expert eyes, subjective judgment, and a network of verification centers that could barely keep pace with the digital economy they supported.

    The world needed a new foundation, something more durable than labels, receipts, and visual inspection. It needed a way for physical goods to carry the same kind of identity that digital assets have enjoyed for years. SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) is building that missing identity layer, a molecular passport embedded directly into the materials that make up the products we buy, sell, and trade.

    What emerges is a commerce ecosystem where physical objects behave like digitally verified entities. Every item becomes self-identifying. Every purchase becomes traceable. Every resale becomes trustworthy. The physical world, for the first time, starts to operate with digital clarity.

    Identity Begins at Creation, Not Resale

    Traditional authentication starts at the end of the supply chain, when an item reaches a marketplace or a resale platform. SMX’s system begins at the beginning. By embedding a molecular signature directly into the raw materials – leather, polymers, metals, fibers, and components – the company gives every product a birth certificate before it ever enters circulation.

    Through ongoing integrations with innovation hubs like A*STAR, CETI, and Aegis Packaging, this identity layer is already being deployed where goods are designed and manufactured. The result is a global pipeline in which products travel with their own permanent resume, readable at any point in their life.

    Once that molecular identity exists, verification ceases to be an interpretive act. It becomes a real-time confirmation tied to the material itself. Authentication moves from “What does this look like?” to “What does this prove?”

    The Marketplace Becomes a Verification Engine

    When identity is embedded at the source, online marketplaces evolve into something more powerful than listing platforms. They become trust engines. A product can be scanned the moment it enters the resale ecosystem, and the truth of its history is revealed in seconds – not through judgment or experience, but through chemistry.

    Resale platforms, refurbishers, luxury markets, and third-party sellers can operate without ambiguity. The cost of manual authentication shrinks. Fraud becomes a technical dead end. And the flow of goods becomes more efficient because every item carries its own unalterable proof.

    This is not a layer added on top of e-commerce. It is the infrastructure beneath it.

    A New Lifecycle for Products With Memory

    Once physical goods gain digital identity, their entire lifecycle transforms. A watch, a designer bag, a limited sneaker release – each can pass from one buyer to the next without losing its connection to its origin. The continuity of identity increases resale value, strengthens brand protection, and creates new economic opportunities for circular commerce.

    Even categories long plagued by uncertainty can be verified at scale. Refurbished electronics. Specialty components. Artwork. Collectible goods. High-value packaging. Pharmaceuticals. Automotive parts. Any product that travels through multiple hands benefits from a system that doesn’t forget.

    Circular economies thrive when memory becomes a material property.

    The Business Model Behind a Verified World

    SMX’s molecular identity isn’t just a security feature. It is a data network. Every scan, every resale, every confirmation becomes part of a larger ecosystem where verified information can be analyzed, monetized, and integrated into brand strategies and marketplace operations.

    Manufacturers can track how their products flow through secondary markets. Platforms can certify goods instantly and reduce friction in high-volume authentication categories. Consumers can trust that what they’re buying is real, not because someone said it was – but because the object itself confirmed it.

    This is not a cosmetic upgrade to e-commerce. It is the architecture for a new era in which digital identity extends beyond screens and servers into every corner of the physical world.

    The Future of Commerce Has a Pulse

    E-commerce was born without a reliable identity layer for physical goods. That gap now has a solution. By starting at production and following products throughout their lifespans, SMX turns authenticity into a system function rather than a matter of human judgment.

    Marketplaces remain the checkpoints of global commerce, but SMX becomes the intelligence that makes those checkpoints unbreakable. Manufacturers gain protection. Platforms gain precision. Consumers gain confidence. And the global supply chain gains something it has been missing since the birth of digital trade – verifiable truth embedded at the material level.

    In a world desperate for reliability, SMX isn’t just verifying what is real.
    It is giving the physical world a digital identity of its own.

    About SMX

    As global businesses face new and complex challenges relating to carbon neutrality and meeting new governmental and regional regulations and standards, SMX is able to offer players along the value chain access to its marking, tracking, measuring and digital platform technology to transition more successfully to a low-carbon economy.

  • SMX Builds the World’s First Reality-Based Sustainability System Where Materials Tell the Truth

    SMX Builds the World’s First Reality-Based Sustainability System Where Materials Tell the Truth

    NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / November 14, 2025 / For decades, sustainability lived in the realm of aspiration. Ambitious global gatherings promised breakthroughs, governments drafted sweeping resolutions, and industries delivered polished reports declaring progress. Yet, beneath the speeches and statistics, a structural flaw persisted: none of these systems could verify themselves. Targets depended on trust. Compliance depended on declarations. Safety depended on assumptions.

    It was a world built on optimism rather than evidence, and eventually the gap became impossible to ignore. When commitments outpaced the ability to confirm them, global sustainability stalled-not for lack of will, but for lack of tools.

    SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) is rebuilding the foundation. Instead of asking the world to trust claims, it gives materials the ability to prove themselves. Its molecular-level identity technology transforms plastics, composites, and flame-retardant products into verifiable data sources, allowing policies to function not as promises, but as measurable realities. In this model, sustainability stops being a narrative. It becomes a system that cannot lie.

    The End of Assumptions, the Rise of Evidence

    The reason sustainability faltered was not ignorance; it was invisibility. Regulators couldn’t see inside materials. Manufacturers couldn’t verify recycled content beyond paperwork. Safety authorities couldn’t confirm whether flame retardants were present or effective until after failures occurred.

    SMX removes that blindness by embedding an invisible chemical signature directly into products at the molecular level. This identity survives processing, melting, shredding, and recycling. A quick scan reveals composition, origin, and compliance with a level of precision that renders old reporting models obsolete.

    It is not oversight. It is an embedded truth. And it allows regulations to stop relying on self-policing, because materials can now carry their own evidence.

    Where Reality Replaces Reporting

    Singapore offers the clearest example of this shift. Working with A*STAR, SMX is building a plastics passport that links every item to a verified record of its own lifecycle. This system doesn’t ask companies what they recycled. It shows them. It shows regulators. It shows auditors. It shows the market.

    In Europe, SMX’s planned collaboration with REDWAVE takes this one step further by integrating verification into production itself. The conveyor line becomes an enforcement mechanism. Each unit of material is validated in real time, creating a live reflection of compliance rather than a quarterly or annual claim.

    And in North America, SMX’s work with the North American Flame Retardant Alliance introduces a safety framework rooted in measurable chemistry instead of paperwork. Regulators can finally confirm compliance inside the product, not after an incident. This turns safety into a proactive discipline rather than a forensic one.

    The First System Where Materials Themselves Are the Source of Truth

    With SMX’s technology embedded directly into products, enforcement is no longer adversarial. It becomes automatic. Manufacturers gain clarity rather than fear. Regulators move from policing to monitoring. Insurers get quantifiable risk instead of actuarial speculation. Consumers receive goods backed by data instead of marketing language.

    In this system, sustainability is not an opinion. It is a reading. Safety is not a claim. It is a measurable property. Recycling is not a pledge. It is a trail of evidence.

    Global promises failed because the world lacked visibility. SMX is rebuilding the sustainability framework with reality baked in, molecule by molecule. It is turning the physical world into a trustworthy one-not through speeches, but through chemistry.

    The shift is already underway. And the future of sustainability will not be written on paper. It will be written inside the materials themselves.

  • BrYet US, Inc. Expands Patent Portfolio with New U.S. Patent for Targeted Drug Delivery

    BrYet US, Inc. Expands Patent Portfolio with New U.S. Patent for Targeted Drug Delivery

    Near-term applications include combinations with kinase inhibitors (KIs)that achieve enhanced concentration at target sites and synergistic delivery of multiple KIs to the same location

    HOUSTON, TX / ACCESS Newswire / November 14, 2025 / BrYet US, Inc. – a biotechnology innovator focused on developing curative therapies for advanced cancers – announced today that it has expanded its patent portfolio with the issuance of U.S. Patent No. 12,390,420, titled “Compositions for Targeted Delivery of Therapeutic Agents and Methods for the Synthesis and Use Thereof.” The patent covers compositions and methods intended to guide therapies to target tissues and control their release using the company’s proprietary nanoporous silicon microparticles (NSMP) and multi-component architecture.

    The newly-patented technology provides the foundation for a robust pipeline of therapies, with a near-term application in BrYet’s work pairing its proprietary platform with kinase inhibitors (KIs) – targeted medicines that help switch off overactive growth signals in some cancers.

    Traditionally, the therapeutic efficacy of kinase inhibitors is often limited by poor drug delivery to tumor sites and the rapid development of drug resistance. The human body has a series of biological barriers that affect drug distribution and can prevent the desired accumulation of therapeutic agents at the cancer site while inducing adverse side effects. BrYet’s patented approach aims to improve the delivery of KIs by overcoming such biological barriers with a platform that comprises three elements: nanoporous silicon microparticles (NSMP), functional groups introduced to the surface of NSMP, and therapeutic drugs bound to the chemically modified NSMP through non-covalent interaction.

    By packaging more than one KI together and releasing them at the same tumor site, BrYet aims to address treatment resistance with vertical and/or horizontal pathway inhibition. Rational combinatorial targeted therapies have been shown to enhance antitumor activity and overcome resistance to the therapy. Additionally, BrYet’s delivery platform is designed to minimize adverse side effects with lung-selective delivery.

    “This patent expands the applications for our targeted approach to treating cancer,” said Dr. Mauro Ferrari, President and CEO of BrYet US, Inc. “It strengthens our ability to pair our delivery science with targeted medicines such as kinase inhibitors, bringing us one step closer to our ultimate goal of delivering functional cures.”

    “By coordinating how and where each agent is released, we aim to improve the odds against therapeutic resistance and help patients in the greatest need,” said Dr. Masakatsu Eguchi, Senior Scientist of BrYet US, Inc. and the patent’s inventor.

    BrYet plans to continue preclinical and clinical studies of its technology – including programs that combine targeted therapies such as KIs – and to explore partnerships to accelerate development toward the clinic.

    Most recently, BrYet received Australian approval to begin its first-in-human clinical study of ML-016, the company’s lead therapeutic. ML-016 targets cancer-specific phenotypes in lung and liver cancers using the same vascular-targeting NSMP technology that will be used for the KI line.

    About BrYet US, Inc.
    BrYet is a privately held biotechnology company developing potentially first-in-class therapies for patients suffering from cancers for which there is no current curative treatment. BrYet’s lead asset, ML-016, is being developed for cancers of the lungs and liver, including advanced primary malignancies and metastatic spread from primary cancer that originates in other organs or tissue of the body. The company’s fundamental belief is that upon localization in the lungs and liver, these cancers acquire molecular transport phenotypes that are conserved regardless of site of origin and are largely independent of molecular mutations and their continued evolution. BrYet designs multi-component new chemical entities and formulations, which are directed against the fundamental aspects of these cancer-associated, organ-specific transport phenotypes. The company’s proprietary platforms include the mesoporous silicon components, and the mathematical formalism for designing the multi-component drugs, termed Transport Oncophysics. BrYet believes that similar approaches may provide advances against other forms of presently incurable cancers, as well as other pathologies of the lungs and liver.

  • Cyberlux Corporation Unveils Next Phase of UAS Strategy to Address the Attritable Defense Industry Drone Market

    Cyberlux Corporation Unveils Next Phase of UAS Strategy to Address the Attritable Defense Industry Drone Market

    RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, NC / ACCESS Newswire / November 13, 2025 / Cyberlux Corporation (OTC:CYBL), a leading defense technology innovator, today announced the next phase of the Company’s Defense Industry UAS Strategy, redefining how small Group 1 unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) are developed, produced, and deployed in modern conflict environments.

    The next phase of strategy establishes Cyberlux as a driving force in attritable, high-impact UAS systems, designed to deliver mass, modularity, and mission adaptability at the lowest possible cost. By offering a FPV (First Person View) UAS as “ammunition, not aircraft,” Cyberlux aims to become the “Kalashnikov of drones” – delivering scalable, expendable systems to defense customers globally.

    Revolutionizing Defense Through Attritable Economics

    Cyberlux’s new models focus on delivering near front line production of UAV airframes using proven technology applied in new ways. These include unique methods of manufacture, 3D-printed systems, and traditional methods common to our expertise. The focus is on cost efficiency and scalability, with a variety of different offerings dependent on our partner’s requirements. NDAA-compliant for US Military sales as well as readably available commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components for Foreign Military Sales (FMS). This multi-faceted approach enables defense customers and partner nations to choose how they wish to deploy drones rapidly, consistently, with production at or near the front lines.

    Each Cyberlux-designed system can be licensed for local manufacture, providing partners with cost-effective production with vastly improved logistical considerations, while ensuring a scalable, forward-deployed supply chain for critical missions.

    A Modular Family of FPV Systems

    At the core of the strategy is a Family of Systems (FoS), each platform tailored to specific mission profiles, payloads, and operational environments:

    • Spider (small) – Lightweight, low-cost rucksack-portable attritable strike-capable one way or single use FPV system delivering 1.5 lb. payloads.

    • Huntsman (medium) – Tactical, low-cost FPV platform capable of attritable one-way strike and precision payload-delivery mission profiles of up to 4 lbs, bridging the gap between small expendables and fixed-wing systems.

    • Tasmanian (large) – Heavy-lift, affordable, dual-use FPV capable of ISR and munitions delivery, with multiple gimbal options and 10 lbs payload capacity.

    • Weaver (trainer) – Compact, affordable FPV training drone developed to establish Cyberlux as the premier provider of FPV operator training, addressing the DoD’s growing need for skilled UAS pilots, which can also be used for tactical reconnaissance by all troops.

    This modular, scalable approach ensures each platform can be customized rapidly for mission-specific requirements – from electronic warfare (EW) and intelligence surveillance recognizance (ISR) payloads to kinetic payloads that builds on current partnerships such as the Optical Knowledge Systems, Inc. OMNISCIENCE™ autonomy suite artificial intelligence / machine learning (AI/ML) Integration Agreement and the Strategic Collaboration Agreement with Argus Industrial, LLC on kinetic payloads.

    Training the Next Generation of UAS Operators

    Recognizing that FPV piloting is a highly perishable skillset, the Cyberlux UAS strategy includes a dedicated training and simulation ecosystem. Through its Train-the-Trainer (T3) program, Cyberlux will deliver both hardware and curriculum solutions, empowering U.S. and allied forces to rapidly scale FPV proficiency across their ranks.

    Positioned for Growth and Global Defense Leadership

    “Cyberlux is leading the transformation of defense industry UAS from boutique systems into mass-production, mass-deployable, attritable munitions. Our objective is to make advanced UAS capability accessible and scalable for defense and allied customers fast to build, affordable to deploy, and lethal in effect,” said Mark Schmidt, CEO of Cyberlux Corporation. “By combining modular design, manufacturing licenses, and a comprehensive training ecosystem, we enable partners to field affordable, mission-effective systems while maintaining strict compliance with export controls and end-use safeguards.

    Cyberlux is among only a handful of defense companies to have successfully delivered over 2,000 unmanned aerial systems under U.S. Department of Defense contracts, a milestone that underscores the company’s proven ability to move from concept to combat capability at scale. As a result, Cyberlux is positioned at the forefront of the next generation of battlefield autonomy, blending agility, affordability, and adaptability to meet the evolving demands of modern warfare.
