CASE ALLEGATIONS: AeroVironment designs, develops, produces, delivers, and supports a portfolio of robotic systems and related services for government agencies and businesses. The AeroVironment class action lawsuit alleges on May 1, 2025, AeroVironment announced it had completed the acquisition of BlueHalo, LLC, which had previously been awarded a contract to support the U.S. Space Force’s Satellite Communication Augmentation Resource (“SCAR”) program. The SCAR program represents the U.S. Space Force’s efforts to modernize antennas used by the Satellite Control Network (“SCN”), which is comprised of 19 fixed antennas across the world and executes tasks such as tracking satellites, transmitting signals, and conducting telemetry, or accessing data from satellites to assess their status and health, according to the complaint.

The AeroVironment class action lawsuit alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) AeroVironment understated the likelihood that it would imminently face competition from other vendors for the work it performed in connection with the SCAR program and the U.S. Space Force’s ongoing efforts to modernize the SCN; and (ii) accordingly, defendants overstated AeroVironment’s business and financial prospects.

The AeroVironment class action lawsuit further alleges that on January 20, 2026, AeroVironment announced that the U.S. government had issued a stop work order on AeroVironment’s agreement to deliver BADGER systems to the SCAR program. In the same announcement, AeroVironment allegedly stated that the stop work order “allows for the parties to negotiate an amended agreement for the future of the SCAR program” and that “[t]he Company expects to continue to deliver capabilities and products for the SCAR program.” On this news, the price of AeroVironment stock fell nearly 16%, according to the complaint.

Then, on March 2, 2026, SpaceNews allegedly reported that the U.S. Space Force was reopening the SCAR program and “reassessing how to move forward.” Space News quoted Colonel Owen Stevens, director of contracting at the Space Rapid Capabilities Office, which supervised SCAR, as stating: “We have been in conversations with the SAE [senior acquisition executive] for a little while now, and we are going to move into a new acquisition strategy for SCAR,” the complaint alleges. On this news, the price of AeroVironment stock fell more than 17%, according to the complaint.

Finally, on March 10, 2026, the complaint alleges that AeroVironment announced its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026. Among other items, AeroVironment allegedly reported a third-quarter operating loss of $179.0 million, compared to an operating loss of $3.1 million for the same period in fiscal year 2025. These financial results reflected the impact of a $151.3 million goodwill impairment in AeroVironment’s space division after the stop work order on AeroVironment’s BADGER systems built for the SCAR program, according to the AeroVironment class action lawsuit. AeroVironment also allegedly reported that the U.S. Space Force had terminated AeroVironment’s contract concerning the SCAR program, and as a result, it would have to “recompete” for the SCAR program. On this news, the price of AeroVironment stock fell more than 6%, the complaint alleges.

THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased or acquired AeroVironment securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the AeroVironment class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the AeroVironment class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the AeroVironment class action lawsuit. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the AeroVironment class action lawsuit.

About NovaBridge Biosciences

NovaBridge is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company advancing innovative medicines for areas of significant unmet need. The Company combines deep business development expertise with agile translational clinical development to identify, accelerate, and advance breakthrough assets, enabling transformative therapies to progress rapidly from discovery toward patients in need.

The Company’s differentiated pipeline is led by givastomig, a potential first-in-class Claudin 18.2-Targeted Immuno Amplifier (CTIA) — a Claudin 18.2 × 4-1BB bispecific antibody — and VIS-101, a purpose-designed, potential best-in-class dual VEGF-A × ANG-2 inhibitor.

Givastomig conditionally activates T cells via the 4-1BB signaling pathway in the tumor microenvironment where Claudin 18.2 is expressed, and is being developed to treat Claudin 18.2-positive gastric cancer and other gastrointestinal malignancies. It is being evaluated in a global, randomized Phase 2 study, following positive topline results from a Phase 1b, multicenter, open-label study in first-line gastric cancer. NovaBridge is also collaborating with its partner, ABL Bio, on ragistomig, a bispecific antibody combining PD-L1 as a tumor engager with 4-1BB as a conditional T-cell activator, in solid tumors. In addition, NovaBridge holds worldwide rights outside of China to uliledlimab, an anti-CD73 antibody targeting adenosine-driven immunosuppression in cancer.

VIS-101 targets VEGF-A and ANG-2 to provide more rapid, robust, and durable treatment responses for patients with retinal vascular diseases, including wet age-related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema, and retinal vein occlusion. It has completed a randomized, dose-ranging Phase 2a study in wet AMD and expects to initiate a dose-determining Phase 2b study in the second half of 2026. NovaBridge is the majority shareholder of Visara, Inc., which controls global rights to VIS-101 outside of Greater China and certain countries in Asia.

Mdxhealth Announces Receipt of Nasdaq Notification Regarding Minimum Market Value of Listed Securities Deficiency

Mdxhealth Announces Receipt of Nasdaq Notification Regarding
Minimum Market Value of Listed Securities Deficiency

IRVINE, California – July 24, 2026 (GlobeNewswire) – Mdxhealth SA (NASDAQ: MDXH) (the “Company” or “mdxhealth”), a leader in urology-focused precision diagnostics, today announced that the Company received an additional notification letter (the “Additional Letter”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) related to the recent reduction in the price for the Company’s ordinary shares. The initial notice, reported by the Company in its Form 6-K filed on July 2, 2026, related to the Company’s non-compliance with the $1.00 Minimum Bid Price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for continued listing. The Supplemental Letter, received on July 20, 2026, notifies the Company that it is not in compliance with the minimum market value requirement set forth in rules for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) requires listed companies to maintain a minimum market value of US$35 million and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C) provides that a failure to meet the minimum market value requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive business days. Based on the market value of the Company from June 1, 2026, to July 17, 2026, the Company no longer meets the minimum market value requirement.

The Additional Letter does not impact the Company’s listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market at this time. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company has been provided 180 calendar days, or until January 19, 2027, to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2). To regain compliance, the Company’s market value must exceed US$35 million for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days. In the event the Company does not regain compliance by January 19, 2027, the Company may be eligible for additional time to regain compliance or may face delisting. In the event of such a notification, the Nasdaq rules permit the Company an opportunity to appeal Nasdaq’s determination.

The Company’s business operations are not affected by the receipt of the Additional Letter. The Company intends to monitor its market value and intends to cure the deficiency within the prescribed grace period.

First Capital, Inc. Reports Quarterly Earnings

CORYDON, Ind., July 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — First Capital, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: FCAP), the holding company for First Harrison Bank (the “Bank”), today reported net income of $4.8 million, or $1.43 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to net income of $3.8 million, or $1.13 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025

Net interest income after provision for credit losses increased $1.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. Interest income increased $1.6 million when comparing the two periods due to an increase in the average tax-equivalent yield(1) on interest-earning assets from 4.82% for the second quarter of 2025 to 5.12% for the same period in 2026, in addition to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets from $1.18 billion for the second quarter of 2025 to $1.24 billion for the same period in 2026. Interest expense decreased $93,000 when comparing the periods as the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 1.64% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 to 1.56% for the same period in 2026 while the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased from $883.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 to $907.3 million for the same period in 2026. As a result of the changes in interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the tax-equivalent net interest margin(1) increased from 3.59% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 to 3.98% for the same period in 2026. Refer to the accompanying average balance sheet for more information regarding changes in the composition of the Company’s balance sheet and resulting yields and costs from the quarter ended June 30, 2025 to the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Based on management’s analysis of the Allowance for Credit Losses (“ACL”) on loans and unfunded loan commitments, the provision for credit losses increased from $306,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 to $425,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.   The Bank recognized net charge-offs of $58,000 and $113,000 for the quarters ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Noninterest income increased $187,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The increase is primarily due to the Company recognizing a $92,000 gain on equity securities during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 compared to a loss of $41,000 during the same period in 2025. In addition, the Company recognized an increase of $54,000 in service charges on deposit accounts when comparing the two periods.

Noninterest expenses increased $359,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the same period in 2025. This was primarily due to increases in compensation and benefits, advertising, and other expenses of $235,000, $84,000 and $79,000, respectively, when comparing the two periods.   The increase in compensation and benefits is due to increases in salary and wages associated with annual cost of living and performance related adjustments as well as increases in the cost of Company-provided health insurance benefits. The increase in advertising expenses is related to various new marketing campaigns undertaken during the quarter ended June 30, 2026. The increase in other expenses was primarily due to general inflationary pressures and routine pricing increases rather than any specific item. These increases were partially offset by a $75,000 decrease in professional services when comparing the two periods due to fewer consulting fees during the quarter ended June 30, 2026.  

Income tax expense increased $397,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the same period in 2025 resulting in an effective tax rate of 20.8% for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to 18.4% for the same period in 2025. The increase in the Company’s effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 reflects a higher proportion of net income being subject to taxation compared to the same period last year.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company reported net income of $9.1 million, or $2.72 per diluted share, compared to net income of $7.0 million, or $2.09 per diluted share, for the same period in 2025.

Net interest income after provision for credit losses increased $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. Interest income increased $3.2 million when comparing the two periods due to an increase in the average tax-equivalent yield(1) on interest-earning assets from 4.73% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 to 5.04% for the same period in 2026, in addition to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets from $1.18 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025 to $1.23 billion for the same period in 2026. Interest expense decreased $352,000 when comparing the periods as the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 1.67% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 to 1.56% for the same period in 2026 while the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased from $883.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 to $904.4 million for the same period in 2026. As a result of the changes in interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the tax-equivalent net interest margin(1) increased from 3.47% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 to 3.90% for the same period in 2026. Refer to the accompanying average balance sheet for more information regarding changes in the composition of the Company’s balance sheet and resulting yields and costs from the six months ended June 30, 2025 to the six months ended June 30, 2026.

Based on management’s analysis of the ACL on loans and unfunded loan commitments, the provision for credit losses increased from $644,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 to $775,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026. The Bank recognized net charge-offs of $169,000 and $197,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Noninterest income increased $387,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase is primarily due to the Company recognizing a $270,000 gain on equity securities during the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to a loss of $23,000 during the same period in 2025. In addition, the Company recognized increases of $70,000 and $53,000 in ATM and debit card fee income and service charges on deposit accounts, respectively, when comparing the two periods. These increases were partially offset by the Company recognizing a $92,000 loss on sale of available for sale securities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to a loss of $55,000 for the same period in 2025. The loss on sale of available for sale securities during the six months ended June 30, 2026 was a result of management’s decision to sell $18.7 million of available for sale securities to better position the Company’s investment portfolio for increased future yields.

Noninterest expenses increased $931,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the same period in 2025. This was primarily due to increases in compensation and benefits, other expenses, professional services, and advertising expenses of $470,000, $178,000, $166,000 and $82,000, respectively, when comparing the two periods. The increase in compensation and benefits is due to increases in salary and wages associated with annual cost of living and performance related adjustments as well as increases in the cost of Company-provided health insurance benefits. The increase in other expenses is primarily due to an increase in consumer fraud losses and increased support of the Company’s local communities through sponsorships and donations during the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the same period in 2025.   The increase in professional services is due to increased consulting fees. The increase in advertising expenses is related to various new marketing campaigns undertaken during the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the same period in 2025.

Income tax expense increased $755,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the same period in 2025 resulting in an effective tax rate of 20.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 17.9% for the same period in 2025. The increase in the Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026 reflects a higher proportion of net income being subject to taxation compared to the same period last year.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025

Total assets were $1.29 billion at June 30, 2026 compared to $1.27 billion at December 31, 2025. Net loans receivable and cash and cash equivalents increased $14.0 million and $12.5 million, respectively, from December 31, 2025 to June 30, 2026. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $10.3 million in available for sale securities when comparing the two periods. Deposits increased $13.7 million from $1.12 billion at December 31, 2025 to $1.14 billion at June 30, 2026. Nonperforming assets (consisting of nonaccrual loans, accruing loans 90 days or more past due, and foreclosed real estate) increased from $4.4 million at December 31, 2025 to $4.9 million at June 30, 2026.

The Bank currently has 17 offices in the Indiana communities of Corydon, Edwardsville, Greenville, Floyds Knobs, Palmyra, New Albany, New Salisbury, Jeffersonville, Salem, Lanesville and Charlestown and the Kentucky communities of Shepherdsville, Mt. Washington and Lebanon Junction.

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP AND NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (UNAUDITED):

This presentation contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Management uses these “non-GAAP” measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures allow for better comparability with prior periods, as well as with peers in the industry who provide a similar presentation, and provide a further understanding of the Company’s ongoing operations. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. The following table summarizes the non-GAAP financial measures derived from amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and reconciles those non-GAAP financial measures with the comparable GAAP financial measures.
