Returned to revenue growth in 2025 with positive adjusted EBITDA and operating cash flow Successful peak season drives 11% increase in full-year impressions Ended 2025 with ~$25 million in ARR from AIC; Building a more recurring, predictable business model ROSH-HA`AYIN, Israel, Feb. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kornit Digital Ltd.

Municipality Finance Plc Financial Statements Bulletin 11 February 2026 at 2:00 pm (EET) Municipality Finance Plc Financial Statements Bulletin 1 January–31 December 2025 In brief: MuniFin Group in 2025 The Group’s net operating profit excluding unrealised fair value changes* decreased by 1.5% (+2.9%) in January–December and amounted to EUR 178 million (EUR 181 million). Net interest income* was at the same level as in the year before and totalled EUR 260 million (EUR 260 million). Higher expenses compared to the comparison period weakened the net operating profit excluding unrealised fair value changes. Net operating profit* amounted to EUR 193 million (EUR 166 million). Unrealised fair value changes amounted to EUR 14 million (EUR -16 million) in the financial year. Unrealised fair value changes were influenced in particular by changes in market rates and credit risk spreads in the Group’s main funding markets. Costs* in the financial year amounted to EUR 86 million (EUR 81 million). Expenses increased mainly due to the rise in HR and administrative costs as well as in commission fee expenses. The Group’s leverage ratio remained at a strong level, standing at 13.1% (12.3%) at the end of December. At the end of December, the Group’s CET1 capital ratio was very strong at 94.0% (107.7%). The ratio was pulled down by the new CRR III regulation that was applied on 1 January 2025, resulting in a decline in the capital ratio approximately by 10 percentage points, mainly due to the increase in credit valuation adjustment risk (CVA VaR). The Group’s CET1 capital ratio was nevertheless over six times the required minimum of 15.1% (15.0%), taking capital buffers into account. Long-term customer financing (long-term loans and leased assets) excluding fair value changes* totalled EUR 38,510 million (EUR 35,787 million) at the end of December and saw an increase of 7.6% (8.6%). New long-term customer financing* increased by 0.6% (17.1%) in January–December 2025 and amounted to ...

TORONTO, Feb. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Unisync Corp. (“Unisync") (TSX:"UNI") (OTC:“USYNF”) today announced its financial results for the three months ended December 31, 2025, reporting net income of $0.9 million ($0.05 per share), compared to a net loss of $0.7 million ($0.04 per share) in the same quarter in the prior year. While the prior year included unrealized foreign exchange losses of $1.3 million, underlying operations remained resilient, and Q1 2026 margins benefited from a more favourable sales mix and lower depreciation expense, reflecting continued operational momentum. “The year is off to a strong start and demonstrates the momentum we have built across the business” said Tim Gu, Executive Chairman of Unisync. “We are delivering stronger margins, better efficiency, and improved profitability, all driven by a focused team executing on our strategic priorities. The momentum we have today gives us confidence in the opportunities ahead.” Highlights Q1 2026: Net income before income taxes of $1.2 million, compared to a net loss before income taxes of $1.0 million in the prior year. Gross margin increased to 23.7% from 19.7% year over year Adjusted EBITDA (1) of $2.7 million or 12.9%, a 3.9% improvement year over year. of $2.7 million or 12.9%, a 3.9% improvement year over year. Interest expense declined by $0.2 million due to overall reduced borrowings. Operational and Financial Review Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2025, were $20.9 million, compared to $21.4 million in the prior year. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower volumes in public sector accounts, partially offset by a slight increase in airline accounts. Despite the lower revenue base, Unisync delivered an improvement in profitability. Gross margin increased from 19.7 % in the prior year to 23.7% in current quarter. The year over year improvement was driven by a more favourable sales mix, lower offshore product costs and a reduction in depreciation and amortization...

Korkokate* oli samalla tasolla kuin vuotta aiemmin ollen 260 miljoonaa euroa (260 miljoonaa euroa). Vertailukautta suuremmat kulut heikensivät liikevoittoa ilman realisoitumattomia käyvän arvon muutoksia. Liikevoitto* oli 193 miljoonaa euroa (166 miljoonaa euroa). Realisoitumattomat käyvän arvon muutokset olivat tilikaudella 14 miljoonaa euroa (-16 miljoonaa euroa). Muutokseen on vaikuttanut etenkin konsernin keskeisillä varainhankintamarkkinoilla tapahtuneet korkojen sekä luottoriskilisien muutokset. Tilikauden kulut* olivat 86 miljoonaa euroa (81 miljoonaa euroa). Kulut kasvoivat pääasiassa henkilöstö- ja hallintokulujen sekä palkkiokulujen nousun vuoksi. Konsernin vähimmäisomavaraisuusaste (leverage ratio) pysyi edelleen vahvalla tasolla, ja se oli joulukuun lopussa 13,1 % (12,3 %). Konsernin CET1-vakavaraisuus on edelleen erittäin vahva ja oli joulukuun lopussa 94,0 % (107,7 %). Vakavaraisuutta laski vuoden 2025 alussa voimaan tullut CRR III -sääntely, jonka seurauksena vakavaraisuussuhde laski noin 10 %-yksikköä lähinnä vastuunarvonoikaisuriskin kasvusta johtuen. CET1-vakavaraisuus oli yli kuusinkertainen verrattuna 15,1 %:n (15,0 %) kokonaisvakavaraisuusvaatimukseen vaaditut pääomapuskurit huomioiden. Pitkäaikainen asiakasrahoitus (laina- ja leasingrahoitus) ilman realisoitumattomia käyvän arvon muutoksia* oli joulukuun lopussa 38 510 miljoonaa euroa (35 787 miljoonaa euroa), ja se kasvoi 7,6 % (8,6 %).

Reckoner Capital Management is launching a series of collateralized loan obligation ETFs that will automatically reinvest loan dividends, a novel feature that will allow investors to control when they collect distributions and pay taxes. The four new actively managed ETFs join Reckoner’s two other ETFs, which offer investors exposure to CLO securities with a variety of credit ratings, according to a statement. CLOs are bundles of leveraged loans packaged into bonds of varying size and risk. The new funds are aimed at investors who prefer to avoid any dividend payouts until they sell their holdings, as well as those who want to reduce the frequency of cash distributions to just once a year rather than monthly, according to John E Kim , Reckoner’s chief executive officer. “These are dividend minimization funds,” said Kim in an interview. “Depending on investment objectives, you may want to take a distribution just once a year, or you may just want to stay fully invested until you decide to liquidate.” There are other ETFs that seek to avoid paying out dividends but they remain somewhat uncommon. A fund from Roundhill Investments tracks the S&P 500 but sells stock holdings just before they are due to deliver dividends. Reckoner says its ETFs save on fees and administrative costs by managing all funds through a single entity. The $1.3 trillion CLO market has not historically been channeled into ETFs, because the collateralized securities were seen as the domain of sophisticated institutional investors. But the growth of ETFs and the broader hunt for yield has pushed total assets in CLO-focused ETFs to over $40 billion, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

The dollar typically strengthens in times of economic or geopolitical strife, but in 2026 much of the uncertainty and political turmoil is coming from inside the US – and President Donald Trump has given a thumbs-up to the resulting plunge in the greenback. The dollar has dropped 9% overall against a basket of world currencies over the last year, and in January fell to its weakest level since March 2022. And the downward pressures don’t appear to be going away. A weaker dollar reverberates across the US and global economies. In the US, prices of imported goods rise, making purchases of those products more expensive for American manufacturers and consumers, while American exports become more attractive to customers overseas. Here’s what to know about the dollar’s drop and what to expect if the currency remains under pressure. Why is the dollar weakening? There are multiple forces dragging down the US currency. But analysts say the Trump administration’s unpredictable foreign policy, including Trump’s on-again, off-again threat to take over Greenland and the removal of Venezuela’s president by force , are undermining the dollar’s normal role as a haven in times of uncertainty. Trump’s repeated attacks on the Federal Reserve ’s independence also have put pressure on the US currency, as has the possibility of further interest-rate cuts by the central bank. Lower interest rates drag down the dollar as investors look elsewhere for higher savings rates. Separately, the Trump administration and many analysts have argued that the dollar has become overvalued and that the recent weakness and outlook for continued depreciation is a reckoning the world should have been braced for. During Trump’s first term, the president highlighted that for decades, as part of the underpinning of globalization, the dollar was artificially propelled higher by the rest of the world. Currency manipulation charges have been rampant over the past two decades at least. China and other Asian nations ...

Fidelity and Vanguard both offer relatively limited rosters of dividend exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Both are winners for different reasons, but each of their dividend ETFs has some flaws. Vanguard and Fidelity are two of the biggest names in the investment world. Together, they manage trillions of dollars in assets and are top investing destinations for almost any financial goal. For those seeking income generation, both issuers offer quality exchange-traded funds (ETFs), although somewhat limited dividend ETFs. In terms of dividend income strategies, both Vanguard and Fidelity offer several relatively standard options, but surprisingly little that would be considered a robust or unique approach. Before diving deeper into which of the two is the better dividend ETF issuer, let's do a quick rundown of the lineup that each offers. The Vanguard dividend ETFs The Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF (VIG 0.27%) has a straightforward strategy. It targets companies with a streak of consecutive annual dividend growth covering at least 10 years, while eliminating the top 25% of yields from consideration. The Vanguard International Dividend Appreciation ETF (VIGI +0.72%) is the international version of the fund above. The only major difference is that this index requires only a seven-year track record of annual dividend growth. The Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF (VYM 0.06%) is a pretty generic high-yield portfolio. It starts with a large universe of U.S. dividend-paying stocks, calculates the indicated yield for each, and simply grabs the top half of all yields. The Vanguard International High Dividend Yield ETF (VYMI +0.14%) is the international version of the above ETF. The Vanguard Wellington Dividend Growth Active ETF (VDIG 0.15%) is at least unique in that it's actively managed and targets high-quality companies that have shown an ability and a willingness to grow their dividends over time. The Fidelity dividend ETFs The Fidelity High Dividend ETF (FDVV +0.03%) is the...

How do you put a value on a city on the Moon? What about a colony on Mars? Or an AI superintelligence zooming through space aboard a million satellites? If SpaceX’s bankers are to be believed, this futuristic vision should be worth at least $1.5tn (£1.1tn) at an upcoming initial public offering for Elon Musk’s rocket business. This week, Musk promised SpaceX would aim to complete a self-sustaining lunar city within 10 years and start work on a Mars colony within the next five. Even next to Tesla, SpaceX, founded in 2002, is Musk’s crowning glory. The business has a near-monopoly over the West’s space launch market and its Starlink network is vital to America’s national security. Its Starship rockets should enable humans to return to the Moon. This year, it is expected to hit $24bn in revenues. SpaceX is now rumoured to be seeking to raise $50bn at a valuation of $1.5tn in its planned stock market listing. Yet despite the company’s out-of-this-world origins, its valuation and future success are now increasingly tied to the AI mania gripping the stock market. In December, Musk began to float the idea that SpaceX could build a fleet of AI data centres in orbit. The world’s richest man wants to build a “sentient sun” to challenge OpenAI’s ChatGPT.

Key Points Micron Technology and Western Digital have both posted massive returns over the past year. There are several reasons why both of these stocks should continue to generate strong returns over the long haul. Both of these stocks are surprisingly undervalued relative to other AI juggernauts. 10 stocks we like better than Western Digital › Every year, some stocks break out with massive returns, but the ones that truly become stars are those that can sustain those gains over the long haul. In 2025, two of the most notable breakout stocks were Western Digital(NASDAQ: WDC) and Micron Technology(NASDAQ: MU) -- digital memory specialists that saw demand for their wares propelled higher by surging investments in artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now, when you join Stock Advisor. See the stocks » Over the past 12 months, Western Digital has risen a whopping 465%, including a 60% return already this year. Micron stock has gained 313% over the past year, including a 35% increase year to date. Yet even after these massive gains, both stocks remain strong long-term buys. Why these breakout stars will continue to shine There are some common threads that should make Western Digital and Micron stocks long-term growers. First, both of these companies are dominant players in their respective parts of the tech industry, and they are recipients of surging demand due to the AI infrastructure buildout. Micron makes high-bandwidth memory chips for AI data centers, and it's one of three major players in that market. The memory chip industry is in a supercycle -- an extended boom cycle -- with demand outpacing supply because the AI data center infrastructure buildout requires an abundance of these types of chips. Micron already has sales agreements in place for all of the chips it will be able to manufacture and deliver in 2026. Western Digital, which mak...

The day after French billionaire Bernard Arnault vowed to raise his stake in luxury conglomerate LVMH to majority ownership, he hunkered down and started buying. Europe’s richest individual purchased roughly €100 million of stock on Jan. 28, according to a Paris stock market filing. That came just after Arnault had unveiled 2025 results that disappointed investors and he delivered a downbeat outlook, hitting the share price and handing him his biggest single-day personal wealth loss in dollars of $15 billion. Filings show he’s kept up the pace through holding companies, bringing total purchases through Feb. 4 to some 757,000 shares, worth about €407 million. The latest spree follows a more sustained run of buying over eight months last year when Arnault also bought the dip. Unlike last year’s purchases, Arnault telegraphed his intent this time around, saying he wasn’t sure it would “please observers,” amid the strong headwinds buffeting the luxury industry and wish to own more than 50% of the world’s biggest high-end goods conglomerate that he built up over decades. “Our family group has about 50% of LVMH’s capital and since now we’re at the start of a new year, we’re entitled to acquire a bit more,” he said during the Jan. 27 earnings presentation. “This year we’ll cross the 50% threshold. So we’ll own over 50% of the share capital. So we believe in what we do, and we’re showing it in that way.” A representative for the Arnault family didn’t immediately respond to queries about the latest stock purchases.

The 76-year-old engineer-by-training has also expanded his ownership strategy at the brand level, saying last month that LVMH spent €1 billion to raise its stake in upmarket cashme...

watch now VIDEO 5:35 05:35 Tariffs do not cause inflation, says Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent Squawk on the Street New analysis of U.S. Census data shows that states across the U.S. where key midterm elections will take place this year paid over $134 billion in tariffs in the period since President Donald Trump began implementing widespread trade duties in March 2025 through last November. In all, the U.S. Census data compiled by Trade Partnership Worldwide showed a total of $199 billion in tariffs paid by states during that time period. Trump has called affordability a "Democratic hoax," and in recent testimony before Congress, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the tariffs " do not cause inflation." But Trump's tariffs and affordability are expected to be factors in the upcoming midterm election cycle. Recent CNBC survey data from the American consumer and pricing data show that the affordability issues are real and many voters have soured on the economy. A January poll from The New York Times and Siena University found that 54% of voters oppose Trump's tariffs. "Americans struggling with affordability rightly blame tariffs for higher prices on many everyday purchases," said Dan Anthony, executive director of the We Pay the Tariffs small business coalition and president of Trade Partnership Worldwide. "The president could eliminate tens of billions in taxes in the states that will determine the 2026 elections. He just doesn't want to," Anthony said. Anthony said his coalition is highlighting the new data to counter rhetoric about tariffs being "paid by other companies" and being "paid to Americans" and to "educate the public about how tariffs actually work and who pays the price for them: American small businesses, workers, and consumers."
