AGENCIA COMERCIAL SPIRITS LTD ISSUES LETTERS OF AWARD FOR MEP EQUIPMENT SUPPLY AND INSTALLATION FOR PHASE 1A OF INDONESIA DATA CENTER

TAICHUNG CITY, Taiwan, Sept. 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Agencia Comercial Spirits Ltd (NASDAQ: AGCC) (“Agencia” or the “Company”), a company whose principal business operations comprise both its established premium whisky business and the development of AI computing infrastructure and cloud-based computing services, today announced that its Indonesian operating subsidiary, PT. AGCC AITECH INDONESIA, has issued two Letters of Award, each dated August 28, 2026, to separate contractors for the supply of mechanical, electrical and plumbing (“MEP”) equipment and related installation works for Phase 1A of the Company’s planned AGCC-JKT01 data center in West Java, Indonesia.

AI Computing Business Development

Since launching its AI Computing Infrastructure Initiative in February 2026, a strategic undertaking now recognized as a co-primary business line, the Company has entered into a series of commercial and infrastructure arrangements supporting this principal business line, including a five-year computing technology services agreement with a customer in the digital financial services sector, power supply and data center land arrangements, and agreements relating to data center construction, network infrastructure procurement and technical support in Indonesia. The two Letters of Award announced today form part of the continuing build-out of this infrastructure. The Company continues to operate its established whisky business as an equally principal, complementary line of business.

The two Letters of Award cover the supply of MEP equipment and the related installation works and have an aggregate reference amount in a range between US$65 million and US$75 million, exclusive of Indonesian value-added tax. Under their terms, each Letter of Award becomes binding upon PT. AGCC AITECH INDONESIA’s receipt of a duly countersigned copy and operates pending execution of the applicable formal contract.

The Letters of Award form part of the Company’s continuing development of its planned AI computing infrastructure and cloud-based computing services in Indonesia. Together with previously announced arrangements relating to data center construction, land, power supply, network infrastructure and technical support, they are intended to support the infrastructure required for the Company’s planned computing deployment.

The Letters of Award are infrastructure procurement and installation arrangements and are not customer revenue contracts. They do not, by themselves, guarantee that the relevant computing infrastructure will be successfully completed or deployed, that contemplated computing capacity will become operational or be fully utilized, that customers will use the Company’s planned AI computing services, or that the Company will generate revenue, profitability or positive cash flow from the project. The Company’s AI computing infrastructure business is a principal business operation that the Company is actively scaling through dedicated capital expenditures, subsidiary structuring and long-term infrastructure contracting.

Management Commentary

“These Letters of Award represent another important step in the continuing build-out of our AI computing infrastructure business, which we are developing alongside our established whisky operations,” said Mr. TSAI Yi-Yang, CEO of Agencia. “Since launching the initiative earlier this year, we have been putting in place the customer, power, construction, network and technical-service arrangements required to support deployment. Our focus remains on disciplined execution and on building the infrastructure and operational capabilities needed to develop AI computing and cloud-based services as a significant part of Agencia’s future business.”

Management believes that the Company’s planned infrastructure deployment, if successfully implemented, may provide an opportunity to participate in demand for AI computing capacity and related services in Southeast Asia. However, the Company’s AI computing infrastructure strategy remains subject to significant business, operational, financing, construction, supply chain, technology, regulatory, customer demand and execution risks.

About Agencia Comercial Spirits Ltd

Agencia Comercial Spirits Ltd is a Nasdaq-listed company with two principal business focuses: (i) its established premium whisky operations; and (ii) the development of AI computing infrastructure and cloud-based computing services. These two lines of business represent the Company’s primary operational pillars, with the Company dedicating substantial resources to the development and scaling of its AI computing infrastructure business. The Company’s whisky operations include procurement and distribution of bottled whisky, procurement and distribution of raw cask whisky, and cask-to-bottle and distribution services, including brand-authorized bottling, packaging and sales, in Taiwan and select international markets.

Since early 2026, the Company has launched and been developing its AI Computing Infrastructure Initiative through subsidiaries in Singapore, Indonesia and other jurisdictions. This initiative represents a principal business focus, backed by substantive contractual arrangements for commercial AI computing cloud services and the development of supporting data center, power, network and technical infrastructure. The Company’s historical operating revenue has been derived from its whisky operations, and the AI computing business remains in development and deployment and is subject to significant business, financing, construction, technology, regulatory, customer demand and execution risks.

Additional risks and uncertainties are described in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.

Boxlight Launches Clevertouch Focus: A Better Experience for Teachers. A Safer Campus for All.

Boxlight Launches Clevertouch Focus: A Better Experience for Teachers. A Safer Campus for All.

New interactive display puts the teacher experience at the center while connecting classrooms to campus-wide communication and safety; launching exclusively across the Americas

DULUTH, Ga.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Boxlight Corporation (Nasdaq: BOXL), a leading provider of educational technology, campus communication, and school safety solutions, today announced the launch of Clevertouch Focus, an EDLA-certified interactive display that connects teaching, communication, and safety. Available exclusively in the Americas, including the U.S., Canada, and Latin America, Focus delivers a simpler, more intuitive experience for educators while extending classroom communication campus wide.

More than an interactive display, Clevertouch Focus brings together Harmony, Boxlight’s next-generation educational experience, AI-powered instructional software, real-time captioning and translation, STEM curriculum, campus communication, and emergency notification capabilities in one affordable solution. The result is greater value for schools looking to improve learning outcomes while strengthening campus safety.

Built for Teaching

Clevertouch Focus is designed to help educators spend less time managing technology and more time engaging students.

At the center of the experience is Harmony, Boxlight’s next-generation educational interface that brings lessons, instructional tools, applications, and classroom resources together in a simple, intuitive environment. Harmony creates a consistent user experience that allows educators to move seamlessly between teaching tools, helping maximize instructional time and classroom engagement.

The display also delivers the authentic, EDLA-certified Google experience educators expect, providing seamless access to Google Workspace for Education and familiar classroom applications. Through the partnership between Boxlight and Google, Focus extends beyond device access by providing a pathway to Google Educator Certification. Every Clevertouch Focus display includes a Boxlight-provided Google certification exam as well as Boxlight’s online pre-exam training, helping districts support professional development and empowering teachers to maximize the value of their classroom technology investment.

Focus also includes Boxlight’s growing ecosystem of proprietary instructional and communication technologies. Lynx Whiteboard uses AI-powered lesson and activity generation to help teachers create engaging, interactive learning experiences in minutes. CleverLive, Boxlight’s cloud-based digital signage platform, enables schools to create, manage, and distribute dynamic content across displays throughout the campus. Through MyStemKits.com, educators gain access to standards-aligned STEM lessons and activities that promote hands-on learning and student engagement. Together, these solutions extend Clevertouch Focus beyond a classroom display into a connected teaching, learning, and communication platform.

“School districts should not have to choose between affordability, instructional effectiveness, teacher development, and student safety,” said Jeremy Peterson, VP US Operations Boxlight Corporation. “Clevertouch Focus combines Harmony, Google certification opportunities, AI-powered teaching tools, accessibility solutions, campus communications, and school-safety integrations into one affordable platform, creating a connected classroom experience unlike anything else on the market.”

A Classroom Display That Enhances School Safety

Through integration with Symphony Cloud& Campus, Boxlight’s unified communication platform, Clevertouch Focus becomes a visual communication endpoint capable of delivering emergency alerts, lockdown notifications, safety instructions, campus announcements, paging communications, and visual emergency messaging directly into the classroom.

Unlike standalone classroom displays, Focus extends campus communication and safety infrastructure directly into learning spaces.

When connected to Symphony, Focus also benefits from LAN-based emergency alerting and messaging, allowing schools to continue delivering critical communications even during internet outages. This provides districts with a resilient communication solution when reliability matters most.

One Ecosystem. One Partner.

While many display manufacturers focus solely on classroom hardware, Boxlight uniquely combines interactive displays, instructional software, accessibility tools, curriculum resources, campus communication systems, and school-safety technologies within a single connected ecosystem.

Through Harmony, Lynx Whiteboard, MyStemKits.com, CleverLive Digital Signage, Symphony Cloud & Campus, and Boxlight’s safety integrations, districts gain a unified platform designed to support teaching, learning, communication, and safety through one trusted partner.

This approach helps simplify procurement, reduce integration challenges, improve technology adoption, and maximize return on technology investments.

Clevertouch Focus isn’t simply another interactive display. It’s a connected platform that helps schools improve learning, support teacher growth, increase accessibility, strengthen campus safety, and deliver greater value from every classroom technology investment.

Cadence Subsystem for PCIe 6.0 Architecture Achieves First-Pass PCI Express Specification Compliance

Cadence Subsystem for PCIe 6.0 Architecture Achieves First-Pass PCI Express Specification Compliance

Complete x8 subsystem solution in TSMC N3 process demonstrates industry readiness for mass production and de-risks adoption for AI/HPC customers

SAN JOSE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Cadence (Nasdaq: CDNS) today announced that its PHY and controller IP for the PCI Express® (PCIe®) 6.0 specification, implemented in the TSMC N3 process, achieved first-pass success at the recent PCI-SIG® compliance workshop held in late July. The workshop marked the industry’s first official event for PCIe 6.0 specification compliance testing, with Cadence’s x8 subsystem solution tested at the full PCIe 6.0 specification speed of 64 GT/s.

The complete Cadence subsystem solution, comprising both PHY and controller, successfully passed all official PCIe 6.0 compliance specification tests and is on PCI-SIG’s Integrators List.

“PCI Express is a crucial scale-up interconnect for AI/HPC data centers and AI factories, and Cadence’s subsystem for the PCIe 6.0 specification delivers best-in-class performance with among the lowest power in the industry,” said Marc Loinaz, vice president of research and development for high-performance PHY, Silicon Solutions Group at Cadence. “This first-pass compliance success validates our complete PHY and controller solution and gives customers confidence that our technology is fully interoperable and ready for production.”

The milestone underscores the importance of early ecosystem collaboration in bringing new standards to market. Cadence worked closely with PCI-SIG, test equipment providers, and industry partners in the months leading up to the official compliance workshop, conducting interoperability testing to identify and resolve potential issues before the formal evaluation.

“As PCIe 6.0 technology enables the next wave of AI and high-performance computing systems, rigorous compliance and interoperability testing are essential for ecosystem success,” said Brig Asay, General Manager, Network Data Center, Keysight Technologies. “Cadence’s first-pass compliance achievement reflects both the quality of its PCIe 6.0 subsystem implementation and the effectiveness of comprehensive validation using Keysight’s test and measurement solutions. We are pleased to support industry leaders in accelerating PCIe 6.0 technology deployment with confidence.”

“Cadence is a long-standing PCI-SIG member helping to further PCIe technology adoption,” said Al Yanes, president and chairperson of PCI-SIG. “Cadence’s PCIe 6.0 compliance milestone plays a role in the continued advancement of PCIe technology architecture.”

PCIe 6.0 technology addresses growing demand for high-bandwidth connectivity in AI and high-performance computing systems, where the standard is used for accelerator cards, network interfaces, and storage devices. The interface is expected to see wide adoption in data center and AI infrastructure, with broader deployment in automotive and enterprise systems following as the ecosystem matures.

“Positron AI has licensed Cadence’s SerDes IP for the PCIe 6.0 specification for our AI inference accelerator chip,” said Thomas Sohmers, CTO at Positron AI. “Cadence’s complete PCIe 6.0 subsystem built in silicon and robust interoperability testing give us confidence that our PCIe 6.0 interface will meet the high-bandwidth connectivity demands of our transformer workloads.”

Key features of Cadence’s PCIe 6.0 technology solution include:

  • Complete subsystem solution with PHY and controller built in silicon

  • ADC and DSP-based equalization

  • Firmware-optimized SerDes operation

  • Multi-protocol flexibility and support

  • Optimized for low power, including support for the latest PCI-SIG engineering change notices (ECNs)

  • Certification for x8 configuration on TSMC N3 process

PCI-SIG has continued to advance the PCIe standard to meet the needs of advanced HPC and AI workloads. Cadence offers a broad portfolio of PCIe technology solutions up to the PCIe 7.0 specification.

Lincoln Financial Research Finds 78% of Families Haven’t Discussed Life Insurance

Lincoln Financial Research Finds 78% of Families Haven’t Discussed Life Insurance

New research reveals adult children and aging parents sidestepping conversations about life insurance, making assumptions that could create costly gaps in future preparedness

RADNOR, Pa.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
For September’s Life Insurance Awareness Month, Lincoln Financial has released new research that outlines key conversations adult children and aging parents may not be having related to coverage and family financial conversations.

According to Lincoln Financial’s Consumer Sentiment Tracker, 78% of families surveyed have not had an in-depth conversation about life insurance. Additionally, 60% of adult children believe their parents have life insurance coverage in place, while only 44% of parents say they actually do, underscoring a critical gap between expectation and reality among family conversations and future preparedness.

Lincoln’s research finds similar communication gaps around retirement funding, healthcare costs and legacy planning, suggesting this disconnect isn’t limited to life insurance.

“Families often assume these decisions have already been made, but our research points to a broader issue that when generations aren’t talking about long-term intentions or financial priorities, those assumptions leave families feeling unprepared when important decisions arise,” said Darrel Tedrow, Executive Vice President, President of Life Insurance and Retail Shared Services, Lincoln Financial. “Closing the conversation gap starts with having honest conversations. When families understand their options and priorities, they can make more informed decisions about the role life insurance plays in their long-term financial security.”

The call to action: Start before it’s urgent

Lincoln encourages adult children and aging parents to begin key retirement and long-term financial conversations as early as possible, as that clarity and alignment will create greater financial confidence and preparedness for the future. For families to align, Lincoln suggests:

  • Host a family meeting where key members discuss financial protection, coverage needs and long-term goals; don’t assume everyone is already on the same page. Meet once a year or when any major life event may occur.
  • Work with a financial professional to understand how life insurance fits alongside saving, investing and retirement preparedness.
  • Have these conversations early. When families avoid discussing long-term financial goals, important decisions are often left until a major life event occurs, forcing loved ones to navigate complex and emotionally charged choices under pressure.
  • Document key decisions. Once family conversations happen, make sure family members understand expectations, know where important information is kept, and are fully aligned on what decisions have been made.

“Life insurance should be part of a family’s overall financial strategy. It should be considered alongside saving, investing and preparing for retirement as part of a broader approach to long-term financial security,” said Tedrow. “With that in mind, the most important part of any strategy is making sure the people it impacts understand it. A simple conversation today can create greater clarity and confidence for a family in the future.”

FAQs

What is Life Insurance Awareness Month? Life Insurance Awareness Month is observed each September to help raise consumer understanding of life insurance and encourage families to evaluate their coverage needs.

What does Lincoln Financial mean by “closing the conversation gap”? It’s the disconnect between what families assume has been decided and what has actually been discussed and put in place. Lincoln Financial’s Consumer Sentiment Tracker found 78% of families surveyed haven’t had an in-depth conversation about life insurance, and adult children consistently overestimate the coverage their parents have.

Why do families avoid these conversations? Families often assume the topic has already been addressed, or avoid raising it out of discomfort, and the responsibility for starting the conversation can end up sitting with no one in particular.

Why does Lincoln Financial say life insurance is part of a comprehensive financial strategy, rather than a standalone product? Because it works best alongside saving, investing and preparing for retirement, not as a decision made in isolation. Treating it separately is part of why it gets left out of the conversation.

How can families start this conversation? Start with goals and long-term priorities rather than policy details, don’t wait for a milestone event to force it, and consider working with a financial professional to help align expectations across generations.
