HONG KONG, Dec. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Intercont (Cayman) Limited (“NCT”, the “Company”, or “we”) (NASDAQ: NCT), a global carbon-neutral shipping company, today announced that, on December 15, 2025, the Company received a notification letter (the “Notification Letter”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), notifying the Company that it is currently not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The Notification Letter is based upon the fact that the closing bid price of the Company’s ordinary shares (“Ordinary Shares”) was below $1.00 per share for a period of 30 consecutive business days from October 31, 2025 to December 12, 2025.

This press release is issued pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), which requires prompt disclosure of receipt of a deficiency notification. The Notification Letter has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s Ordinary Shares, which will continue to trade uninterrupted on Nasdaq under the ticker “NCT”.

Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until June 15, 2026 (the “Compliance Period”), to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement. If at any time during the Compliance Period, the closing bid price per share of the Company’s Ordinary Shares is at least $1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company a written confirmation of compliance and the matter will be closed.

In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement by June 15, 2026, the Company may be eligible for additional time of grace period. To qualify, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, including by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.

SAN DIEGO, Dec. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP announces that the SLM class action lawsuit seeks to represent investors in SLM Corporation a/k/a Sallie Mae (NASDAQ: SLM; SLMBP) securities between July 25, 2025 and August 14, 2025, inclusive (the “Class Period”). Captioned Zappia v. SLM Corporation a/k/a Sallie Mae, No. 25-cv-18834 (D.N.J.), the SLM class action lawsuit charges SLM and certain of SLM’s top executives with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

CASE ALLEGATIONS: SLM, through its subsidiaries, originates and services private education loans (“PELs”).

The SLM class action lawsuit alleges that throughout the Class Period defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) SLM was experiencing a significant increase in early stage delinquencies; and (ii) accordingly, defendants overstated the effectiveness of SLM’s loss mitigation and/or loan modification programs, as well as the overall stability of SLM’s PEL delinquency rates.

The SLM investor class action further alleges that on August 14, 2025, investment bank TD Cowen issued a report addressing SLM, flagging that, “[o]verall, July [2025] delinquencies were up 49 bp m/m, higher (worse) than the seasonal (+10 bps) performance for July, driven by a 45 bps increase in early stage delinquencies.” Notably, TD Cowen’s findings directly contradicted assurances made by SLM’s CFO, defendant Peter M. Graham – made late in the month of July 2025 – that defendants were observing delinquency rates that “really are following the normal seasonal trends we would expect in the business,” the complaint alleges. Following this news, the price of SLM’s stock fell by approximately 8%, the SLM shareholder class action claims.

THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who invested in SLM securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the SLM 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 SLM investor class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the SLM shareholder class action lawsuit. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the SLM class action lawsuit.

NEW YORK, Dec. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces that a securities class action lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of all persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Coupang, Inc. (“Coupang” or the “Company”) (NYSE: CPNG) securities between August 6, 2025 and December 16, 2025.

The Complaint alleges that Coupang had inadequate cybersecurity protocols that allowed a former employee to access sensitive customer information for nearly six months without being detected. The Complaint further alleges that this subjected Coupang to a materially heightened risk of regulatory and legal scrutiny. The Complaint also alleges that when defendants became aware that Coupang had been subjected to this data breach, they did not report it in a current report filing to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in compliance with applicable reporting rules. Additionally, the Complaint also alleges that as a result, defendants’ public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times.

Investors who purchased or otherwise acquired shares of Coupang should contact the Firm prior to the February 17, 2026 lead plaintiff motion deadline. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. If you wish to discuss your rights or interests regarding this class action, please contact Thomas J. McKenna, Esq. or Gregory M. Egleston, Esq. of Gainey McKenna & Egleston at (212) 983-1300, or via e-mail at [email protected] or [email protected].

NEW YORK, Dec. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces that a securities class action lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington on behalf of all persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired F5, Inc. (“F5” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: FFIV) securities between October 28, 2024, and October 27, 2025.

The Complaint alleges that Defendants provided investors with material information concerning F5’s cybersecurity capabilities and effectiveness. The Complaint alleges that the Defendants’ statements included, among other things, their confidence in the Company’s security coverage and that Defendants routinely emphasized the importance of effective security measures to F5’s clientele. The Complaint further alleges that Defendants’ statements included, among other things, confidence in the Company’s ability to uniquely address newly developing security concerns, provide best-in-class security offerings, and overall protect its clients’ data while capitalizing on the market potential for enhanced security offerings.

The Complaint also alleges that Defendants provided these overwhelmingly positive statements to investors while, at the same time, disseminating materially false and misleading statements and/or concealing material adverse facts concerning the true state of F5’s security capabilities; notably, that it was not truly equipped to safely secure data for its clients as F5 itself was, for all relevant times, experiencing a significant security breach (the “Security Breach”) of some of its key offerings and, further, that the revelation of this breach would significantly impact F5’s potential to access capital. The Complaint further alleges that the alleged false statements caused Plaintiff and other shareholders to purchase F5’s securities at artificially inflated prices.

Additionally, the Complaint alleges that investors began to question the truth of Defendants’ public statements on October 15, 2025, following a press release and associated 8-K. In pertinent part, the Complaint alleges that the Defendants announced a “long-term, persistent” breach to its systems, during which the Company’s BIG-IP product development and engineering knowledge management platforms were compromised, including the BIG-IP source code.

Further, the Complaint alleges that investors and analysts reacted immediately to F5’s revelation, with the price of F5’s common stock declining from a closing market price of $343.17 per share on October 14, 2025 to $295.35 per share on October 16, 2025, a decline of about 13.9% in the span of just two days.

The Complaint additionally alleges that notwithstanding the October 15 disclosures, F5 and the Defendants continued to mislead investors about the Company’s updated financial projections, a potential scope of client exposure, or the cost or significance of the remedial measures underway, planned, or otherwise contemplated.

The Complaint further alleges, that the full truth finally emerged on October 27, 2025 when F5 announced their fourth quarter fiscal year 2025 results and provided significantly below-market growth expectations for fiscal 2026. The Complaint alleges this was due in significant part to the Security Breach as the Company announced expected reductions to sales and renewals, elongated sales cycles, terminated projections, and increased expenses attributed to ongoing remediation efforts. The Complaint also alleges that Defendants disclosed that BIG-IP, the product that was the subject of the Security Breach, is the company’s highest revenue product. The Complaint alleges this highlighted the impact of the Security Breach on the Company because F5 does not otherwise provide revenue contributions by product line.

The Complaint also alleged that investors and analysts again reacted promptly to F5’s revelations, with the price of F5’s common stock declining from a closing market price of $290.41 per share on October 27, 2025 to $258.76 per share on October 28, 2025, a decline of an additional 10.9% in the span of two days.

Investors who purchased or otherwise acquired shares of F5 should contact the Firm prior to the February 17, 2026 lead plaintiff motion deadline. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. If you wish to discuss your rights or interests regarding this class action, please contact Thomas J. McKenna, Esq. or Gregory M. Egleston, Esq. of Gainey McKenna & Egleston at (212) 983-1300, or via e-mail at [email protected] or [email protected].
