Entravision Scales Industry-First AI Latino Radio Show “GeeGee & Coyotec” into 5 New Markets Across the Fuego Network

Following audience growth in Los Angeles, the dynamic human-AI duo expands into a multi-market, English-infused bicultural format tailored for bilingual audiences.

BURBANK, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Entravision (NYSE: EVC), a leading media and advertising technology company, today announced the multi-market expansion of its groundbreaking AI-co-hosted show starring Geraldine “GeeGee” Guzman and Coyotec, the industry’s first Latino AI radio personality. Beginning Monday, August 3rd, the duo brings their signature chemistry, culture, and high-energy format to five new key markets across Entravision’s premier Fuego Network, which targets one of the fastest rising consumers: bicultural & bilingual Latinos.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260805035739/en/

GeeGee & Coyotec is the first human-AI Latino personality show on a bilingual radio format.

GeeGee & Coyotec is the first human-AI Latino personality show on a bilingual radio format.

Building on the proven track record of their hit show Al Aire y Sin Permiso on José 97.5 FM in Los Angeles—which drove audience growth, particularly among younger Hispanic male listeners—the program is scaling up to reach a broader, highly engaged bicultural audience. To align with the vibe & sound of the Fuego Network, the expanded show features an increased English-language mix, tapping into the natural, bilingual energy of young Latino listeners alongside the hottest Latin Urban and Música Mexicana hits.

The show is now airing across the following Fuego stations in these markets:

  • Sacramento, CA – FUEGO 101.9 (10:00 AM – 12:00 PM PDT)

  • Las Vegas, NV – FUEGO 92.7 (10:00 AM – 12:00 PM PDT)

  • Modesto, CA – FUEGO 98.9 (10:00 AM – 12:00 PM PDT)

  • Palm Springs, CA – FUEGO 103.5 (10:00 AM – 12:00 PM PDT)

  • McAllen, TX – FUEGO 99.5 (1:00 PM – 2:00 PM CDT)

“This expansion is a prime example of how content innovation drives our industry forward,” said Eduardo Maytorena, President of Audio. “GeeGee and Coyotec represent the future of multi-market audio—delivering authentic culture, seamless versatility, and unmatched value for our brand partners.”

Bridging Human Talent and AI

At the heart of the expansion is the ability to adapt cutting-edge AI technology to diverse regional audiences while preserving authentic human connection.

“Hearing GeeGee and Coyotec together in English has been one of the most exciting parts of this expansion,” said LeaAnna Hernandez, EVP of AI Strategy. “We intentionally created Coyotec to be our ‘amigo inteligente’ (intelligent friend)—a trusted companion that informs, entertains, and connects with listeners. Their chemistry shows how naturally AI can adapt when paired with great talent, and it’s a powerful reminder that AI isn’t limited to a single language, platform, or audience.”

A Home for Bicultural Listeners

For lead host Geraldine “GeeGee” Guzman, stepping onto the Fuego Network represents a natural evolution in reflecting how modern bicultural audiences communicate.

“For me it’s less about switching gears and more about getting to show up as my full self,” said GeeGee Guzman. “So many of us grew up bouncing between English and Spanish without even thinking twice about it. So getting to bring that same energy to Fuego feels like a blessing honestly, like I finally get to sound like the people who raised me. I’m thankful for the opportunity to grow with an audience that already feels like home.”

By pairing human emotional intelligence with AI’s ability to rapidly adapt, process information, and scale across regions, Entravision continues to redefine the future of localized radio with national and cultural impact.

RACKSPACE TECHNOLOGY, INC.
 CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT – COMPLAINT ALLEGATION SUMMARY:
The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, and/or failed to disclose material adverse facts about the company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants misrepresented and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Rackspace’s enterprise AI efforts would require the company to significantly re-prioritize its capacity and capital away from the profitable Private Cloud segment; (2) Rackspace’s Public Cloud revenue was declining as customers contracted directly with hyperscale cloud platforms; (3) as a result, Rackspace was likely to significantly reduce a material portion of its Public Cloud infrastructure resale business; (4) consequently, Rackspace’s fiscal year 2026 revenue would be significantly impacted; and (5) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

Why did Rackspace’s Stock Drop?
On July 9, 2026, before the market opened, Rackspace published its second quarter 2026 financial results and disclosed “a strategic and financial update on its transition to becoming the operator of the full enterprise AI stack.” Specifically, Rackspace revealed that its AI investments would require a significant re-prioritization of resources and, as a result, reduced its full year 2026 revenue guidance by $150 million. Rackspace also cut its full year 2026 Private Cloud revenue outlook by $25 million and explained that “[l]ower near-term margins reflect upfront growth investment and restructuring, ahead of AI revenue ramping.”

On this news, Rackspace’s stock price fell $2.21 per share, or 33.6%, to close at $4.37 per share on July 9, 2026.


WHAT RACKSPACE TECHNOLOGY, INC. INVESTORS CAN DO NOW:

  1. File to be lead plaintiff by September 28, 2026.

Carlisle Launches “Made with America” Video Celebrating America’s 250th Anniversary

Carlisle Launches “Made with America” Video Celebrating America’s 250th Anniversary

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Carlisle Companies Incorporated (NYSE:CSL) today launched “Made with America,” a video celebrating America’s 250th anniversary and Carlisle’s own 109-year history as an American manufacturer contributing to the nation’s storied growth and resilience.

Since its founding in 1917, Carlisle has contributed to American innovation, strengthened infrastructure, created jobs, and delivered long-term value while helping power the nation’s growth. Throughout its history, Carlisle pioneered building-envelope industry firsts, including the 1961 installation of Sure-Seal® single-ply EPDM membrane on the rotunda roof at O’Hare International Airport, marking the first use of a protective rubber membrane to waterproof a commercial roof.

“Carlisle’s commitment to growth in America began with our founding in 1917, and for more than a century we’ve grown in step with the people building our country,” said Chris Koch, Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer. “As we celebrate the nation’s 250th anniversary, we honor that shared story and the people who continue to write it.”

“Made with America” brings Carlisle’s American Story of Growth to life through four defining themes:

  • American Innovation: Carlisle has a long history of building-envelope innovations that set new standards for durability, energy efficiency, and ease of installation, helping lower lifecycle costs and extend the life of structures across America.
  • American Infrastructure: From schools and hospitals to manufacturing plants, warehouses, office buildings, and data centers, Carlisle’s roofing, insulation, waterproofing, and building-envelope systems help protect the buildings and facilities Americans rely on every day.
  • American Jobs: Carlisle employs nearly 5,000 professionals across 80 U.S. locations and has issued four broad-based employee stock option grants since 2009, giving employees a direct stake in the company’s success. A $125 million R&D center expansion currently under construction will add more than 100 high-paying jobs for PhDs, scientists and engineers.
  • American Value Creation: Carlisle will issue its 50th consecutive annual dividend increase, a milestone reflecting strong cash generation and a commitment to disciplined capital allocation. Through recessions, market cycles, and its transformation into a pure-play building products company, Carlisle has maintained the financial strength needed to invest in growth, innovation, and shareholder returns.

“Made with America” will run across Carlisle’s digital and social channels, at company facilities, and in select media placements over the coming year.

The video and additional information about Carlisle’s American Story of Growth can be found at www.carlisle.com.

RTC Networks Invests in Calix Agent Workforce To Further Reduce 46% Drop in Churn While Advancing a 5-Year Growth Strategy

RTC Networks Invests in Calix Agent Workforce To Further Reduce 46% Drop in Churn While Advancing a 5-Year Growth Strategy

After increasing ARPU by 22 percent and reducing monthly churn 46 percent in two years, RTC Networks is deepening their investment in the AI-native Calix One platform, developing secure agentic workflows to drive higher revenue and fuel long-term growth

SAN JOSE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Today, Calix, Inc. (NYSE: CALX) announced that RTC Networks is leveraging the AI-native Calix One™ platform and Calix Agent Workforce™ Cloud to advance their five-year growth strategy, a blueprint for the future of their connected communities. With secure agentic workflows on Calix One, the North Dakota communications cooperative is accelerating transformation across marketing, support, and operations teams. Agentic capabilities are expected to help employees onboard faster, resolve questions with fewer escalations, and access guidance quickly and easily during live support calls. As RTC Networks continues to introduce greater intelligence and operational efficiencies with Calix, the cooperative will accelerate the delivery of experiences to better compete and win residential, business, and community markets.

Since 2008, RTC Networks has partnered with Calix—leveraging both the Calix platform and deep engagements with Calix Success™—to build a repeatable engine for growth, subscriber loyalty, and operational excellence. Acting on insights from a Calix Business Insights loyalty analysis, RTC Networks optimized their investment in SmartHome™ experiences for residential members, including increased adoption of their personalized CommandIQ®mobile app. These efforts increased average revenue per user (ARPU) by 22 percent and reduced monthly churn by 46 percent. RTC Networks also partnered with Calix Success to strengthen employee readiness and operational consistency while serving business subscribers, helping achieve a 97 percent installation success rate for SmartBiz™ upgrades. Now, RTC Networks is extending that proven operating model with Calix One and AI-powered workflows.

Brooks Goodall, assistant general manager at RTC Networks, said: “We are preparing RTC Networks for where our business will be five years from now, not where it is today. With Calix Agent Workforce, employees will be able to find answers more easily, resolve issues with greater confidence during troubleshooting, and onboard faster. As our teams gain more hands-on experience with secure agentic workflows, they are also embracing AI as a practical tool for serving subscribers faster and more effectively. The early benefits we saw with Calix One encouraged our leadership to expand access across the cooperative within weeks of deployment, helping us build the operational readiness we need to support long-term business growth and achieve our goals.”

John Durocher, chief operations officer at Calix, said: “RTC Networks has a clear vision for the future and a proven approach for long-term growth. They have already shown how a disciplined, data-driven focus on subscriber experience across residential and business markets can help them compete and win. Now, they are applying that same approach to how work gets done using AI-powered workflows. The result is greater efficiency and more consistent experiences. By embedding secure agentic workflows into everyday work with Calix One and Calix Agent Workforce Cloud, RTC Networks is creating a more predictable and scalable operating model that drives subscriber loyalty and higher revenue. We are proud to partner with RTC Networks as they continue building on that success for years to come.”

Constellation Announces Board Chairman Transition and New Board Appointment

Constellation Announces Board Chairman Transition and New Board Appointment

BALTIMORE–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Constellation (Nasdaq: CEG) today announced that its Board of Directors has elected President and Chief Executive Officer Joe Dominguez to serve as Chairman of the Board, effective Aug. 4, 2026, and appointed Roger Crandall, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of MassMutual, to the Board as an independent director, effective Aug. 5, 2026. Charles L. Harrington will serve as Lead Independent Director, reinforcing the company’s strong governance framework and independent Board oversight.

Crandall brings nearly four decades of leadership experience in financial services and has served as chief executive officer of MassMutual since 2010. MassMutual, a Fortune 100 company, is one of America’s largest mutual life insurance companies, serving more than four million customers with over $1 trillion in life insurance in force. Under Crandall’s leadership, the 175-year-old company has delivered strong long-term performance and exceptional value to its policyowners. He recently completed service as Chair of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston and currently serves on several business, educational and nonprofit boards. Crandall earned an MBA from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and a bachelor’s degree in economics from the University of Vermont.

“Roger is an exceptional business leader with deep expertise in capital allocation, risk management, technology transformation and corporate governance,” said Dominguez. “His perspective and experience will be invaluable as Constellation continues to execute its strategy and meet growing demand for reliable, carbon-free energy.”

“Constellation plays a critical role in powering economic growth and advancing a more reliable and sustainable energy future,” said Crandall. “I look forward to working with the Board and leadership team to support the company’s long-term success and value creation, all in service of building a better tomorrow for communities across the country.”

These appointments follow the resignation of Robert J. Lawless from the Board, effective Aug. 4, 2026. Lawless concludes a distinguished tenure spanning more than two decades of service to Constellation. He served on the board of legacy Constellation Energy Group from 2002 until its merger with Exelon in 2012, on the Exelon Board from 2012 to 2022, and as chairman of Constellation following its separation from Exelon in 2022. His strategic insight, financial acumen, commitment to strong corporate governance and steadfast support of management helped position Constellation for sustained growth and industry leadership.

“Few people have had a greater impact on Constellation’s journey than Bob Lawless,” said Dominguez. “From his service on the legacy Constellation board to supporting the company through our separation from Exelon, Bob has been a trusted counselor, thoughtful leader and steadfast advocate for our long-term success. His leadership helped lay the foundation for the growth and value creation we have achieved as an independent company, and we are deeply grateful for his service.”

Mr. Lawless brought decades of executive leadership, strategic planning and corporate governance experience to the Board. As the former chairman, president and chief executive officer of McCormick & Company, he provided valuable insight on issues affecting public companies and helped strengthen Constellation’s focus on long-term shareholder value and disciplined leadership.

“It has been an honor to serve on Constellation’s Board and work alongside such a talented team,” said Lawless. “I am proud of what the company has accomplished and confident it is well positioned for continued success.”
