Scottsdale Fashion Square, A Macerich Property

SANTA MONICA, Calif., Aug. 30, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Macerich (NYSE: MAC), one of the nation’s leading owners, operators and developers of high-quality retail and mixed-use properties in top markets, today detailed progress for its current redevelopment of the south wing at Scottsdale Fashion Square, including more experiential dining and more retail space dedicated exclusively to men.

During Macerich’s Q2 2023 earnings call with analysts, Macerich Senior Executive Vice President of Leasing Doug Healey discussed exciting updates in the food and beverage category at Scottsdale Fashion Square, announcing that noted seafood restaurant Catch will open its only Arizona location flanking one side of the Nordstrom wing’s new, high-profile porte cochere entrance – providing direct access to more luxury – while Élephante will flank the other side. Catch is an Asian-inspired, globally influenced menu offering great food and great service in a lively atmosphere, with seven units open to date in Las Vegas, New York, Los Angeles and Aspen.

“In addition to the wealth of outstanding dining we continue to bring to Scottsdale Fashion Square, now including Catch, a major story emerging from our consistent reinvestment in this one-of-a-kind property in Arizona is the success and growth of men’s luxury,” said Healey. “Beyond dedicated standalone luxury stores for men from Gucci and Louis Vuitton, both now open and doing very well, we continue to see top global luxury flagships here dedicating more store space to the men’s market. This includes DIOR, which features men’s lounge seating and other elevated experiences just for men, plus Salvatore Ferragamo, Christian Louboutin and others. It’s a remarkable phenomenon and Scottsdale Fashion Square is at the forefront of this key trend.”

In all, Macerich properties saw an 8% sales increase year over year in men’s apparel (clothing and shoes), and the top 10 Macerich centers by sales per square foot, which includes Scottsdale Fashion Square, saw a 13% year-over-year increase in this growing category.*

AvePoint Achieves New ISO 27701:2019 Certification as Part of its Commitment to Security and Privacy

Audited against two additional ISO certifications with zero non-conformities for the second year in a row

JERSEY CITY, N.J., July 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AvePoint (NASDAQ: AVPT), the most advanced platform to optimize SaaS operations and secure collaboration, today announced certification against, and demonstration of conformance to, the International Organization for Standardization’s (ISO) information security management system (ISMS) audit using the 27701:2019 framework for the first time, and the 27001:2013, and 27017:2015 frameworks for the second consecutive year. Successfully achieving these three certifications demonstrates AvePoint’s prioritization of security and privacy for both itself and its customers and shows that AvePoint has proper company-wide processes for managing operations, and maintaining people and information assets, information systems, and the associated processes that enable corporate operations.

“AvePoint has a longstanding history of helping organizations safely manage and optimize their digital collaboration data. Continuing to add to our ISO certifications shows we also hold ourselves to the highest privacy and data security standards,” said Dana Simberkoff, Chief Information, Security and Risk Officer, AvePoint. “The auditors for our new ISO certification affirmed that AvePoint’s unwavering focus on privacy and security was apparent in both our evaluations and in the inherent design of our products and services, which has always been our goal.”

ISO is an independent, non-governmental international organization with a membership of 161 national standard bodies, credited with publishing more than 2,100 international standards covering almost every industry from technology to food safety to aviation to healthcare. For six years, AvePoint has been audited against ISO 27001:2013, and for two years ISO 27017:2015, both of which are information security management accreditations. The new ISO 27701:2019 certification is in the information privacy management category and represents the evolution of AvePoint as a safe controller of data as opposed to a large processor of data like Microsoft, Amazon Web Services, Salesforce and Google. With access to customer and partner data, it is critical to AvePoint that it is only using said data for its intended purposes.

AvePoint’s three ISO certifications add to the company’s overall resiliency strategy and commitment to security for all customers, which includes other accreditations including SOC 2 Type II, CSA STAR, IRAP, FedRAMP and StateRAMP.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This press release may contain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and include statements regarding, among other things, our projected revenue growth and profitability, our growth strategies and opportunity, anticipated trends in our market and our anticipated needs for working capital. They are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plans,” “potential,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expects,” “management believes,” “we believe,” “we intend” or the negative of these words or other variations on these words or comparable terminology. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, prospective products, market acceptance, future performance, results of current and anticipated products, sales efforts, expenses, and the outcome. Most of these factors are outside Lucy’s control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause actual future events to differ materially from the expected results, include, but are not limited to: (i) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the legality of this consumer product , (ii) inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the opportunity, which may be affected by, among other things, competition and the ability of the company to grow and manage growth profitability, (iii) costs related to the production, (iv) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations of the opportunity, as well as identify and realize additional opportunities, (v) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Lucy following the announcement of the new product line, and (vi) other risks and uncertainties indicated in the filings that are made from time to time with the SEC by Lucy (including those under the “Risk Factors” sections therein).

These statements are based on our management’s expectations, beliefs and assumptions concerning future events affecting us, which in turn are based on currently available information. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Although we believe that the estimates and projections reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, our expectations may prove to be incorrect.

Tivic Health Establishes Halal Compliance for ClearUP, FDA-Approved, Effective, Drug-Free Alternative for Sinus Pain, Pressure, and Congestion

Tivic Health Establishes Halal Compliance for ClearUP, FDA-Approved, Effective, Drug-Free Alternative for Sinus Pain, Pressure, and Congestion

SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Tivic Health® Systems, Inc. (“Tivic”, Nasdaq: TIVC), a health tech company that develops and commercializes bioelectronic medicine, today announced that the Company has completed a full internal assessment of its supply chain and has established that its ClearUP product is Halal compliant.

Of all the industries the American Halal Foundation (AHF) serves, there is probably none more critical than the pharmaceutical and supplement industry. From both a practical and principles perspective, the pharmaceutical and supplement industry is critically important to AHF. 1

There is currently a large asymmetry between the supply and demand for Halal pharmaceuticals. Although nearly 1 in every 4 consumers globally adheres to Halal, less than 5% of all pharmaceutical drugs are Halal compliant. 2 As a result, such consumers are often left with very limited options to address their health concerns.

American Halal Foundation indicates that 24% of the global population adheres to Halal and that Halal compliance is the number one influence on a Muslim consumer’s purchasing decision.3 The global Muslim population is a diverse and dynamic group that is spread across the world. As of 2023, it is estimated that there are over 2.01 billion Muslims in the world, making Islam the second-largest religion after Christianity. 4

“Today’s pharmaceuticals for pain and inflammation management lag behind consumer demand for Halal products,” said Jennifer Ernst, CEO of Tivic. “Bioelectronic medicine is a growing market that delivers effective, drug-free alternatives to pharmaceuticals and Tivic is leading the way to deliver solutions to meet the needs of all of our consumers.”

ClearUP’s non-invasive and targeted approach to the treatment of inflammatory chronic health conditions gives consumers a drug-free, ingestion-free, Halal-compliant therapeutic solution. Tivic has verified that its manufacturing and regulatory processes apply the principles of good hygiene practices and are in compliance with the rules of Islamic law. Specifically, Tivic has self-assessed full compliance with Halal requirements and has verified that all the products, product derivatives, components, packaging, and processes in its supply chain meet Halal standards of compliance.

JetBlue Launches New TrueBlue Loyalty Program Today, Offering More Paths to Perks and Mosaic Status

Program Delivers More Value to Customers Across JetBlue’s Entire Suite of Travel Products and Partnerships

Customers Will Earn Perks Sooner Than Ever Before and TrueBlue Mosaic® Expands with Multiple, New Levels

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
JetBlue (Nasdaq: JBLU) today launched the new TrueBlue® loyalty program, offering members more value with the introduction of tiles, Perks You Pick™, expanded levels of Mosaic and more ways to earn perks and status than ever before. The program, announced last year, builds on TrueBlue’s award-winning features that customers have come to love while expanding to offer members new opportunities to earn perks and status whether in the air or on the ground. With this reimagined loyalty program, JetBlue has set the bar sky-high as a travel brand with new industry-leading rewards for more customers to earn and enjoy.

“As JetBlue grows, we maintain our commitment to delivering innovative programs and products that provide our customers withgreat service and low fares, which is why we are thrilled to launch the new TrueBlue loyalty program,” said Jayne O’Brien, head of marketing and loyalty, JetBlue. “The new TrueBlue comes at the perfect time as we prepare not only to become a bigger JetBlue, but a travel partner that brightens all aspects of the journey by offering our customers more choices, perks and ways to earn rewards.”

“JetBlue is continuing our legacy of disrupting travel for the better with unique, customer-first programs such as the new TrueBlue,” said Christopher Buckner, vice president of loyalty and partnerships, JetBlue. “The new TrueBlue redefines what it means to be a loyalty program by offering new and exciting perks to more customers, as well as providing more ways to attain perks and status.”

“We’re excited that our travel sites Paisly.com and JetBlue Vacations are fully integrated into the new TrueBlue so that members can rack up rewards along their journey—when booking flights and beyond,” said Andres Barry, president, JetBlue Travel Products. “Moving forward, when a customer books a car rental or activity on Paisly, or a flight + cruise or hotel package with JetBlue Vacations, they will earn TrueBlue points towards their next trip and earn tiles to get them closer to one of their next Perks You Pick.”

Earn Tiles to Build Your Mosaic, Your Way

Tiles are the new way for TrueBlue members to track progress toward Mosaic status while also unlocking valuable perks along the way. With the introduction of tiles, TrueBlue members can turn road trip rentals into an inflight rosé, or that dream vacation into Mosaic status.

One tile is awarded for every $100 in qualifying purchases¹ on JetBlue, JetBlue Vacations®, Paisly® by JetBlue, many JetBlue extras and fees and American Airlines flights. Additionally, one tile is awarded for every $1,000 in eligible spend¹ on all JetBlue credit cards. The more ways customers interact with JetBlue, the more perks they can earn.

More Perks for More Customers

Understanding that no two travelers are alike, the new TrueBlue gives customers the ability to choose the rewards that are most valuable to them. For the first time ever, TrueBlue members will be able to customize their experience with Perks You Pick from a new menu of rewards after reaching only 10 tiles.

For every 10 tiles TrueBlue members earn (until reaching Mosaic status at 50 tiles), they can choose a new perk, including:

  • Early Boarding.

    • Get settled sooner with Group B boarding (excluding Blue Basic fares).

  • Priority Security.

    • Access an expedited lane to security at dozens of airports.2
  • Alcoholic Drink.

    • First beer, wine or liquor is free each flight (21+).

  • JetBlue Vacations Bonus.

    • 2X points bonus on a JetBlue Vacations package (one-time use).3
  • 5,000-Point Bonus.

    • Boost your TrueBlue balance with 5,000 bonus points.

These perks will allow even occasional travelers to enjoy an elevated experience when flying on JetBlue. TrueBlue members can track their tiles on their TrueBlue dashboard starting today, with members receiving tiles for spend from the start of 2023. Any member eligible for Perks You Pick based on their 2023 tile count will have the opportunity to immediately select as many perks as they’re eligible for.

Once a customer earns 50 tiles, they will reach Mosaic 1 status, automatically receive all TrueBlue Perks You Pick and benefit even more from new Mosaic levels and Mosaic Perks You Pick4.

Take Mosaic to the Next Level

Whether they fly it, buy it or drive it, TrueBlue members need only collect 50 tiles to unlock Mosaic—a milestone that’s within reach for more customers whether they’re booking flights, family vacations, or your favorite all-inclusive getaways.

And since there are no blackout or expiration dates, it’s just as easy to use them (or share them to friends and family members with Points Pooling).

All TrueBlue members also have an opportunity to boost their points balances with Perks You Pick. A 2x points bonus on JetBlue Vacations (one-time use only) and the 5,000-Point Bonus are available as two of the TrueBlue Perks You Pick while Mosaic members can select the 15,000-Point Bonus as one of their perks.
