New York – September 29, 2026 -- Global employment infrastructure provider Multiplier has surpassed $100 million in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) just six years after its founding, posting 80% year-over-year growth and 115% Net Revenue Retention for its core business.

North America now generates 60% of Multiplier's total revenue

Despite originating in Singapore and operating across more than 160 countries, Multiplier has built its primary growth engine in North America, a region where several industry peers have scaled back operations. Companies headquartered in the United States accounted for 47% of all Multiplier's expansion activity between Q4 2025 and Q1 2026.

Miami – September 29, 2026 -- Jeeves, a stablecoin-native banking platform for global enterprises, has raised $110 million in equity funding and launched a proprietary stablecoin wallet with payouts to 190 countries.

Stablecoin volume surges from zero to $1.5 billion annualized in eight months

The Miami-based company's total platform volume across cards and payments has surpassed $5 billion annualized, tripling year-over-year, while revenue has grown 4x in 14 months. Stablecoin-settled activity, effectively nonexistent eight months ago, now accounts for $1.5 billion of that annualized volume, driven by enterprises moving money between markets where correspondent banking is slow or costly.

Applications for MSCRF funding continue to exceed available resources

Requested funding significantly outstripped the capital available for this cycle, according to the Commission, reflecting both the depth of Maryland's research base and a rising number of technologies advancing past early discovery into validation, clinical development and manufacturing—stages that require substantially more capital.

No par value changes, no shareholder vote required

The par value of the Class A Shares remains unaffected by the consolidation. Because ReTo is incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, the transaction does not require shareholder approval and will proceed automatically without any action from holders.

Calgary, AB – – September 29, 2026 -- Canadian oil sands production is projected to average a record 3.5 million barrels per day (b/d) in 2026, a 100,000 b/d increase of 3% over the prior year, according to S&P Global Energy's latest 10-year production outlook. Output is forecast to climb further to 3.9 million b/d by the early 2030s.

Production has grown almost every year since 2001, when output stood at just 300,000 b/d

The only exception was 2020, when COVID-19 disrupted demand. Most of the 2026 gains stem from optimization of existing facilities rather than new construction, S&P Global Energy said.
