loanDepot, Inc. Addresses Notice of NYSE Trading Price Non-Compliance

  • No immediate impact on listing of loanDepot’s Class A common stock or business operations
  • Company intends to cure the deficiency and return to compliance with the NYSE listing standard

IRVINE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
loanDepot, Inc. (NYSE: LDI) (together with its subsidiaries, “loanDepot”) today announced that on August 21, 2026, it received a deficiency letter from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) notifying loanDepot that it is not in compliance with applicable price criteria in the NYSE’s continued listing standards.

“As we continue to execute our transformation agenda to position loanDepot for profitable market share growth, we are making significant progress. In the last quarter, unit volume grew by 25%, revenue grew by 18%, and purchase market share grew by 33%. We executed a successful and strategic expansion into home equity lending, at scale, and re-entered the wholesale market,” said loanDepot Founder and Chief Executive Officer Anthony Hsieh. “We are making more loans, making them faster, and producing them at a lower cost. By continuously leveraging our unique assets, including one of the most differentiated customer acquisition and retention business models in the marketplace today, and by prudently and actively managing our capital and debt obligations, we believe we can create sustainable stockholder value. As we do that, we expect our stock price to reflect our success.”

This notice has no immediate impact on the ability of loanDepot’s Class A common stock to continue to trade on the NYSE during the cure period. Furthermore, there is no immediate impact on the ongoing business operations of loanDepot or its reporting requirements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notice was received because as of August 20, 2026, the average closing price of loanDepot’s Class A Common Stock (the “Common Stock”) was less than $1.00 per share over a consecutive 30 trading-day period (the “Notice”).

loanDepot will respond to the NYSE within ten business days of receipt of the notice of its intent to cure the deficiency. Pursuant to the applicable NYSE rules, loanDepot has a six-month period following receipt of the Notice to bring its share price and average share price back above $1.00. LoanDepot will consider available alternatives to cure the stock price non-compliance, including, if necessary, a reverse stock split that would be subject to stockholder approval no later than at loanDepot’s next annual meeting of stockholders anticipated for early June 2027.

Kairos Pharma Announces 1-for-7 Reverse Stock Split

Kairos Pharma Announces 1-for-7 Reverse Stock Split

LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Kairos Pharma, Ltd. (NYSE American: KAPA), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on overcoming cancer drug resistance, today announced that it will conduct a reverse stock split of its outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of 1-for-7 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Reverse Stock Split is expected to become effective on September 1, 2026 at 12:01 a.m. ET (the “Effective Time”), with shares expected to begin trading on the NYSE American on a split-adjusted basis at market open on September 1, 2026 under the existing trading symbol “KAPA” and a new CUSIP number of 48301N203.

In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, every seven (7) shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be automatically reclassified and combined into one (1) share of common stock. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, the Company will issue to holders of record who were entitled to a fraction of a share as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, a fraction of a share of common stock as is necessary to round up to the nearest whole share. For shares held through The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), fractions of shares will be issued as is necessary to round up to the nearest whole share at the DTC participant level. Brokers, banks or other nominees holding shares in “street name” will be instructed to effect the Reverse Stock Split for their beneficial holders; however, such brokers, banks or other nominees may apply their own specific procedures for processing the Reverse Stock Split.

Upon the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, the conversion rates of the Company’s outstanding convertible notes, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants and the exercise prices thereof, and the number of shares subject to outstanding equity awards under the Company’s equity incentive plans (and the applicable exercise prices thereof), will each proportionately be adjusted pursuant to their respective terms and as determined by the Company’s board of directors to reflect the 1-for-7 Reverse Stock Split ratio.

The Reverse Stock Split will have no effect on the par value of the Company’s common stock, and each stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company and proportional voting power remains unchanged, except for minor changes resulting from the treatment of fractional shares. Following the Reverse Stock Split, the par value of the common stock will remain unchanged at $0.001 par value per share. The Reverse Stock Split will not change the number of authorized shares of common stock or preferred stock.

The Reverse Stock Split is intended to reduce the number of outstanding shares and proportionately increase the per-share trading price and help the Company maintain compliance with the requirements for continued listing on the NYSE American.

Vstock Transfer, LLC is acting as the transfer and exchange agent for the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who hold registered shares in book-entry form at Vstock Transfer, LLC are not required to take any action to receive split-adjusted shares. Stockholders who hold shares through a broker, bank or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted and are not required to take any action.

Verizon prepares network for potential tropical storm; Customer relief through August 31

At a glance

  • Ensuring connectivity and continuous monitoring: Verizon engineering teams are working around the clock between storms – monitoring conditions 24/7, keeping backup generators fueled, and restaging mobile assets across the islands as a potential tropical storm nears Hawaiʻi.
  • Satellite messaging: Verizon customers can maintain essential communications via satellite, allowing compatible phones to send text messages or connect with emergency services.
  • Customer relief: In advance of the storm, Verizon will continue to offer relief to its consumer, value and postpaid customers along with its small business customers* through August 31.

HONOLULU, Aug. 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Following Hurricane Lala last week, Verizon is preparing for another tropical storm, nearing Hawaiʻi this weekend. Verizon continues to deploy critical resources and teams across the islands. The company keeps residents, businesses, and public safety partners connected when it matters most.

“We know that facing back-to-back storms in such a short window is incredibly taxing for our communities,” said Aimee Novak, West Area President for Verizon. “While our engineering teams continue around-the-clock restoration efforts from Hurricane Lala we are simultaneously preparing for the next system. Saturated ground and ongoing commercial power disruptions present real challenges, but our highest priority remains keeping Hawaiʻi’s residents, emergency responders, and businesses connected.”

Reinforcing Hawaiʻi’s connectivity between storms

Following the power outages, wind damage, and flooding caused by Hurricane Lala, Verizon network teams have been on the ground conducting physical repairs, realigning equipment, and keeping backup generators fueled.

As this next storm approaches, Verizon is taking additional steps to maintain network resilience:

  • Continuous backup power: Permanent site generators across the islands have been topped off with multi-day fuel reserves, and portable generators remain deployed in areas where commercial power is still recovering.
     
  • Mobile & satellite deployment: To support communities impacted by power loss or fiber disruptions, Verizon has satellite assets and mobile network equipment staged and ready to deploy as conditions allow.
     
  • Emergency messaging readiness: While Verizon’s network is built to handle the unexpected, satellite communications provide backup if terrestrial services fail. Verizon encourages customers with compatible satellite-enabled devices (such as iPhone 14 or newer running iOS 18+, or Google Pixel 9 or newer) to test and familiarize themselves with emergency satellite messaging features before the storm makes landfall.

Verizon is also working in close coordination with local power companies, the Hawaiʻi Emergency Management Agency (HIEMA), and state public safety officials to ensure the company remains on constant standby to safeguard critical communications.

One less thing to worry about

Following Hurricane Lala’s impacts, Verizon will keep its relief offerings. Consumer and postpaid customers throughout Hawaii will receive waived charges and extended data access. Small business customers also qualify for the relief program.

For customers across Verizon’s value brands, including Straight Talk, Tracfone, Total Wireless, Walmart Family Mobile, Page Plus, Simple Mobile, SafeLink Wireless, and Net10 Wireless, we are offering unlimited texting, talk and data usage throughout the state of Hawaiʻi through August 31.

For postpaid consumer customers as well as small business customers* throughout the state of Hawaiʻi, Verizon will waive domestic call, text, and data charges through August 31.

Customers do not have to take any action to take advantage of the offer. Any overages for those whose billing cycles have already closed will be automatically credited back.

How residents and businesses can prepare for another storm

In addition to preparing your device for satellite messaging, customers are urged to update their personal digital preparedness plans:

  1. Charge up early: Keep all mobile devices, tablets, and portable power banks fully charged well before storm watches or warnings are issued for your location.
  2. Protect your gear: Place phones, chargers, and external batteries in waterproof accessories or heavy-duty zip-lock bags to safeguard them against floodwaters or rain.
  3. Establish a communication plan: Coordinate a dedicated ohana (family) emergency plan and save key emergency contact numbers directly to your devices.
  4. Check on your kūpuna (elders): To ensure their devices are charged and they have an emergency communication plan in place.
  5. Secure visual backups: Take photos of your home, vehicle, and valuables for insurance purposes. Ensure these images are uploaded to the cloud so you can access them even if your phone is lost or damaged.
  6. Utilize digital resources: Download critical weather tracking, news, and American Red Cross safety apps ahead of time.
  7. Mitigate customer disruption: List critical software, equipment, service contracts and vital contacts (utilities, vendors, authorities) needed to maintain operations. Review coverage with your insurance agent to eliminate gaps.
  8. Contacts and documents are key: Centralize updated contact info for all staff (including remote and satellite offices) and keep accessible, secure copies of your insurance policies.
  9. Keep track of equipment: Maintain an inventory of all corporate hardware deployed to remote employees to streamline claims for potential loss or damage.
  10. The right tech makes an impact: Secure the mobile-ready technology and infrastructure needed to maintain business connectivity if you are forced to relocate.
  11. Have a backup plan: Establish a protocol to immediately reroute workloads if remote employees lose power or face evacuation.

Some Verizon-Victra stores may be temporarily closed or operating on adjusted hours due to local conditions and power impacts. Customers should check the store locator for the latest information.

Verizon will continue monitoring this storm and will provide local network status updates as necessary. Customers can track real-time network status using the Check Network Status tool on Verizon’s website or directly within the My Verizon mobile app. Visit the Emergency Resource Center for further details on Verizon’s emergency response capabilities.

*Verizon small business customers include customers with 50 lines or less.

HUBG 1-WEEK DEADLINE ALERT: Hub Group (HUBG) Investors Have Until Aug. 28 to Lead Securities Class Action

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP notifies investors who purchased or acquired Hub Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: HUBG) common stock during the Class Period, April 28, 2023, through May 11, 2026, that they have until Friday, Aug. 28, 2026, to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Hub Group securities class action.

The case, captioned Lawler v. Hub Group, Inc., No. 1:26-cv-07596 (N.D. Ill.), alleges that Hub Group and certain of its executive officers violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

$HUBG Class Action at a Glance:

Class Period: April 28, 2023 – May 11, 2026
Lead Plaintiff Deadline: Friday, Aug. 28, 2026
Action: Submit Your HUBG Losses at www.hbsslaw.com/cases/hub-group-inc-hubg-securities-class-action

You may also contact attorney Reed Kathrein at Hagens Berman by calling 844-916-0895 or through e-mail at [email protected].

View our latest video summary of the allegations: youtu.be/_y-u8nktjMw

What are the allegations against Hub Group?

Hub Group is a supply chain and logistics management company that provides end-to-end transportation, rail shipping, trucking, warehousing and fulfillment services for businesses.

The complaint alleges that defendants made false and misleading statements about Hub Group’s financial reporting, including its premature and incorrect revenue recognition and its understatement of purchased transportation costs and accounts payable — even as the company assured investors that “[a]ccuracy and transparency in reporting on our performance is of utmost importance” and that its financial statements were prepared in conformity with applicable accounting rules. The complaint alleges that the truth emerged through a series of partial corrective disclosures.

On Feb. 5, 2026, the company revealed that during the first nine months of 2025 it had understated purchased transportation costs and accounts payable by $77 million. The company further disclosed that investors should no longer rely on the company’s financial statements from the first three quarters of 2025 and planned to restate them. The next day, Hub Group’s stock dropped approximately 18%.

Three months later, on May 12, 2026, Hub Group announced that its 2023 and 2024 financial reports were also materially misstated and should no longer be relied upon. The company disclosed it did not maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures over financial reporting for 2023 and 2024. The result was an approximate 13% drop in Hub Group stock.

The February 5, 2026, and May 12, 2026 drops erased more than $870 million of Hub Group’s market capitalization.

How Much Did Investors Lose?

Hub Group’s February and May 2026 stock declines erased more than $870 million from the company’s market capitalization.

Am I affected?

If you purchased or acquired Hub Group (NASDAQ: HUBG) securities between April 28, 2023 and May 11, 2026, you may have legal rights. The deadline to ask the court to appoint you as lead plaintiff is Aug. 28, 2026.

Submit Your HUBG Losses at www.hbsslaw.com/cases/hub-group-inc-hubg-securities-class-action or contact attorney Reed Kathrein at Hagens Berman at 844-916-0895 or [email protected].

Latest Developments: Further Accounting Delays

On August 11, 2026, Hub Group revealed that it will miss another deadline, delaying its second-quarter financial report for 2026. The company admitted the delay is tied directly to its ongoing failure to file its 2025 annual report. Hub Group confirmed it is still fixing errors in its past financial results spanning three years—specifically full-year 2023 and 2024, along with the first three quarters of 2025. The company now claims it will finish rewriting these past statements and release all missing reports by September 14, 2026.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release may contain “forward-looking statements,” including certain plans, expectations, goals, projections and statements about the merger, TWO’s and CCM’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions, the expected timing of completion of the merger, the ability of the parties to complete the merger considering the various closing conditions, and other statements that are not historical facts. Such statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties. Statements that do not describe historical or current facts, including statements about beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are intended to be subject to the safe harbor provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included in this press release that address activities, events or developments that TWO or CCM expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Words such as “project,” “predict,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “potential,” “create,” “estimate,” “plan,” “continue,” “intend,” “could,” “foresee,” “should,” “would,” “may,” “will,” “guidance,” “look,” “outlook,” “goal,” “future,” “assume,” “forecast,” “build,” “focus,” “work,” or the negative of such terms or other variations thereof and words and terms of similar substance used in connection with any discussion of future plans, actions, or events identify forward-looking statements. However, the absence of these words does not mean that the statements are not forward-looking. Projected and estimated numbers are used for illustrative purposes only, are not forecasts and may not reflect actual results. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. TWO’s ability to predict results or the actual effect of future events, actions, plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Although TWO believes the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that its expectations will be attained and therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements.

There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements included in this press release. These include, among other things: the expected timing and likelihood of completion of the merger; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the merger; and the potential failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the merger in a timely manner or at all; risks related to disruption of management’s attention from ongoing business operations due to the merger; the risk that any announcements relating to the merger could have adverse effects on the market price of TWO common stock; the outcome of any legal proceedings relating to the merger, including stockholder litigation in connection with the merger; and that TWO may be adversely affected by other economic, business or competitive factors. All such factors are difficult to predict and are beyond the control of TWO and CCM, including those detailed in TWO’s annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and periodic reports on Form 8-K that are available on TWO’s website at www.twoinv.com/investors and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Each of the forward-looking statements of TWO is based on assumptions that TWO believes to be reasonable but that may not prove to be accurate. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and TWO does not undertake any obligation to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements that speak only as of the date hereof.

Mesa Royalty Trust Announces There Will Be No Distribution for August 2026

Mesa Royalty Trust Announces There Will Be No Distribution for August 2026

HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Mesa Royalty Trust (the “Trust”) (NYSE symbol-MTR) announced today that there will be no distribution paid for the month of August 2026, as costs, charges and expenses attributable to the Trust’s royalty properties exceeded the revenue received from the sale of oil, natural gas and other hydrocarbons produced from such properties, as reported by the working interest owners.

The Trust was formed to own an overriding royalty interest of the net proceeds attributable to certain producing oil and gas properties located in the Hugoton field of Kansas and the San Juan Basin fields of New Mexico and Colorado. As described in the Trust’s public filings, the amount of the monthly distributions is expected to fluctuate from month to month, depending on the proceeds, if any, received by the Trust as a result of production, oil and natural gas prices and the amount of the Trust’s administrative expenses, among other factors. In addition, as further described in the Trust’s most recent filing on Form 10-Q, distributions to unitholders are expected to be materially reduced, until the Trust increases its cash reserves to a total of $2.0 million in order to provide added liquidity.

Proceeds reported by the working interest owners for any month are not generally representative of net proceeds that will be received by the Trust in future periods. As further described in the Trust’s Form 10-K and Form 10-Q filings, production and development costs for the royalty interest have resulted in substantial accumulated excess production costs, which will decrease Trust distributions, and in some periods may result in no Trust distributions. The amount of proceeds, if any, received or expected to be received by the Trust (and its ability to pay distributions to unitholders) has been and will continue to be directly affected, among other things, by volatility in the industry and revenues and expenses reported to the Trust by working interest owners. Any additional expenses and adjustments, among other things, will reduce proceeds to the Trust, which will reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to unitholders and in certain periods could result in no distributions to unitholders.

This press release contains forward-looking statements. No assurances can be given that the expectations contained in this press release will prove to be correct. The working interest owners alone control historical operating data, and handle receipt and payment of funds relating to the royalty properties and payments to the Trust for the related royalty. The Trustee cannot assure that errors or adjustments or expenses accrued by the working interest owners, whether historical or future, will not affect future royalty income and distributions by the Trust. Other important factors that could cause these statements to differ materially include delays in actual results of drilling operations, risks inherent in drilling and production of oil and gas properties, declines in commodity pricing, prices received by working interest owners and other risks described in the Trust’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Statements made in this press release are qualified by the cautionary statements made in such risk factors. The Trust does not intend, and assumes no obligations, to update any of the statements included in this press release. Each unitholder should consult its own tax advisor with respect to its particular circumstances.
