TORONTO, Aug. 20, 2025 – Hydro One Limited, Ontario’s largest electricity transmission and distribution company, today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Hydro One Inc. (together with Hydro One Limited, “Hydro One“), has priced an offering of $1.1 billion of Medium Term Notes (the “Notes“) consisting of $450 million aggregate principal amount of 3.94% Medium Term Notes, Series 61, due 2032 (the “Series 61 Notes“), $300 million aggregate principal amount of 4.30% Medium Term Notes, Series 62, due 2035 (the “Series 62 Notes“) and $350 million aggregate principal amount of 4.95% Medium Term Notes, Series 63, due 2055 (the “Series 63 Notes“). The Series 61 Notes will be issued at a price of $99.988 per $100.00 principal amount, the Series 62 Notes will be issued at a price of $99.928 per $100.00 principal amount, and the Series 63 Notes will be issued at a price of $99.907 per $100.00 principal amount. The net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes will be approximately $1.1 billion. The offering of the Notes is expected to close on August 25, 2025.

The offering of Notes represents the issuance of medium term notes pursuant to Hydro One’s Sustainable Financing Framework dated August 13, 2024 (the “2024 Framework“). Hydro One Inc. intends to allocate an amount equal to the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes to finance and/or refinance, in whole or in part, new and/or existing eligible green projects that meet the eligibility criteria described in the 2024 Framework. Prior to such allocation, the net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes may be initially used, in part or in full, for repayment of indebtedness or investments in bank deposits or other cash equivalents, in each case in accordance with Hydro One’s internal liquidity management policies. Although Hydro One Inc. intends to allocate an amount equal to the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes to eligible green projects under the 2024 Framework, it will not be an event of default under the trust indenture governing the Notes if the company fails to do so.

The Notes are being offered on a best-efforts basis in each of the provinces of Canada through a syndicate of agents.

www.encoreuranium.com

DALLAS, Aug. 20, 2025 – enCore Energy Corp. (NASDAQ: EU) (TSXV: EU) (the “Company” or “enCore”), America’s Clean Energy Company™, announced today the pricing of $100 million aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 (the “Convertible Notes”) in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The offering was upsized from the previously announced offering size of $75 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes. In connection with the offering of the Convertible Notes, enCore granted the initial purchasers of the Convertible Notes a 13-day right to purchase up to an additional $15 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes. The sale of the Convertible Notes is expected to close on August 22, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.

The Convertible Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of enCore and will bear interest from, and including, August 22, 2025, at an annual rate of 5.50%, payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on February 15, 2026. The Convertible Notes will mature on August 15, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted in accordance with their terms. Before May 15, 2030, holders will have the right to convert their Convertible Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. At any time from, and including, May 15, 2030, noteholders may convert their notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. enCore will have the right to elect to settle conversions either in cash, common shares or in a combination of cash and common shares. The initial conversion rate is 303.9976 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $3.29 per common share. The initial conversion price represents a premium of 27.5% over the last reported sale price of $2.58 per common share on August 19, 2025 on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events.

The Convertible Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, for cash at enCore’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after August 21, 2028, and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, enCore may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Convertible Notes, at its option, if the last reported sale price per common share exceeds 130% of the conversion price for a specified period of time. In addition, the Convertible Notes will be redeemable, in whole and not in part, at enCore’s option at any time in connection with certain changes in tax law. The redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

Holders of the Convertible Notes will be able to require enCore to repurchase their Convertible Notes following certain corporate transactions that constitute a “fundamental change” at a repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the repurchase date. Following certain corporate transactions that constitute a “fundamental change” or if enCore issues a notice of redemption, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder that elects to convert its Convertible Notes in connection with such corporate transaction or notice of redemption.

enCore estimates that the net proceeds from the offering will be approximately $95.3 million (or approximately $109.8 million if the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional Convertible Notes in full), after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses. The Company intends to use $10.0 million of the net proceeds from the Convertible Notes offering to pay the cost of entering into capped call transactions in connection with the Convertible Notes and approximately $10.6 million of the net proceeds from the Convertible Notes offering to repay amounts outstanding under its loan agreement. enCore intends to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the Convertible Notes offering for general corporate purposes. If the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional Convertible Notes, enCore intends to use a portion of the additional net proceeds to pay the cost of entering into additional capped call transactions and the remainder of net proceeds for general corporate purposes.

The capped call transactions were privately negotiated with certain financial institutions (the “option counterparties”). The capped call transactions will cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, the number of common shares initially underlying the Convertible Notes, including any additional Convertible Notes issuable upon exercise of the initial purchasers’ option to purchase additional Convertible Notes.

The cap price of the capped call transactions will initially be $4.52 per share, which represents a premium of 75% over the last reported sale price of enCore’s common shares of $2.58 per share on The Nasdaq Capital Market on August 19, 2025, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions.

The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to enCore’s common shares upon any conversion of the Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments enCore is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Convertible Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap.

In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates expect to enter into various derivative transactions with respect to enCore’s common shares and/or purchase common shares concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the Convertible Notes. This activity could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of the Company’s common shares or the Convertible Notes at that time.

In addition, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates expect to modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to enCore’s common shares and/or purchasing or selling enCore’s common shares or other securities following the pricing of the Convertible Notes and prior to the maturity of the Convertible Notes (and are likely to do so during the observation period related to any conversions of the Convertible Notes on or after May 15, 2030, or following early termination of any portion of the capped call transactions in connection with any repurchase, redemption or early conversion of the Convertible Notes). This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or decrease in the market price of enCore’s common shares or the Convertible Notes, which could affect the holders’ ability to convert the Convertible Notes and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to a conversion of the Convertible Notes, it could affect the amount of cash and/or the number and value of common shares, if any, that holders will receive upon conversion of the Convertible Notes.

The Convertible Notes will be offered only to persons reasonably believed to be “qualified institutional buyers” under Rule 144A of the Securities Act. The Convertible Notes and enCore’s common shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, if any, have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws, or qualified by way of a prospectus in any province or territory of Canada. As a result, neither the Convertible Notes nor any common shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes may be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold to persons located or resident in Canada except pursuant to an exemption from the prospectus requirements of applicable Canadian securities laws. This news release is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy the Convertible Notes or any common shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, nor will there be any sale of any securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

All references to dollar amounts contained in this press release are expressed in United States dollars.

enCore intends to use a portion of the net proceeds from the offering of the Convertible Notes to pay the cost of entering into capped call transactions in connection with the Convertible Notes. The Company intends to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the Convertible Notes offering to repay amounts outstanding under its loan agreement and for general corporate purposes. If the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional Convertible Notes, enCore intends to use a portion of the additional net proceeds to pay the cost of entering into additional capped call transactions and the remainder of net proceeds for general corporate purposes.

The capped call transactions would be privately negotiated with certain financial institutions (the “option counterparties”). The capped call transactions are expected to cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, the number of common shares initially underlying the Convertible Notes, including any additional Convertible Notes issuable upon exercise of the initial purchasers’ option to purchase additional Convertible Notes.

The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to enCore’s common shares upon any conversion of the Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments enCore is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Convertible Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap.

In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates expect to enter into various derivative transactions with respect to enCore’s common shares and/or purchase common shares concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the Convertible Notes. This activity could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of the Company’s common shares or the Convertible Notes at that time.

In addition, the option counterparties or their respective affiliates expect to modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to enCore’s common shares and/or purchasing or selling enCore’s common shares or other securities following the pricing of the Convertible Notes and prior to the maturity of the Convertible Notes (and are likely to do so during the observation period related to any conversions of the Convertible Notes on or after May 15, 2030, or following early termination of any portion of the capped call transactions in connection with any repurchase, redemption or early conversion of the Convertible Notes). This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or decrease in the market price of enCore’s common shares or the Convertible Notes, which could affect the holders’ ability to convert the Convertible Notes and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to a conversion of the Convertible Notes, it could affect the amount of cash and/or the number and value of common shares, if any, that holders will receive upon conversion of the Convertible Notes.

The Convertible Notes will be offered only to persons reasonably believed to be “qualified institutional buyers” under Rule 144A of the Securities Act. The Convertible Notes and enCore’s common shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, if any, have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws, or qualified by way of a prospectus in any province or territory of Canada. As a result, neither the Convertible Notes nor any common shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes may be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold to persons located or resident in Canada except pursuant to an exemption from the prospectus requirements of applicable Canadian securities laws. This news release is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy the Convertible Notes or any common shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, nor will there be any sale of any securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

The Wyoming Reserve seeks to provide accredited investors with “smart liquidity” and potential opportunity zone tax advantages

CASPER, Wyo., Aug. 19, 2025 — The Wyoming Reserve Opportunity Zone Fund Corporation (“The Wyoming Reserve”) today announced that it is commencing a new offering of up to 10 million shares of its common stock at $11.50 per share for an aggregate offering amount of $115 million, pursuant to Rule 506(c) under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Wyoming Reserve successfully closed its initial common stock offering in March 2025 after raising approximately $26 million from accredited investors.

“Inflation, geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainty have prompted many sound money investors to turn to gold and other precious metals to help protect their wealth,” said Josh Phair, CEO of The Wyoming Reserve and a precious metals industry veteran. “The Wyoming Reserve seeks to provide investors with an avenue to access alternative asset classes, with the goal of potentially minimizing tax liability typically associated with the physical ownership of gold and silver.”

The core business of The Wyoming Reserve is generating income from the purchase and sale of precious metals, as well as the fee income from vaulting, transportation, fulfillment and metal availability services for commercial and industrial customers in a high-security, precious metals-focused vault facility. Utilizing these strategic drivers of profitability, The Wyoming Reserve aims to provide investors with returns exceeding those of owning physical gold and silver, which have achieved a 14.2% combined compound annual growth rate over the past five years, according to data from the LBMA.

A secure vault facility in the country’s top “sound money” state
The Wyoming Reserve is located in an approximately 70,000-square-foot facility in a designated opportunity zone in Casper. Over the past few years, Wyoming has been ranked first for both business tax climate and as a “sound money” state by The Tax Foundation and the Sound Money Defense League & Money Metals Exchange, respectively.1 Wyoming also does not impose a tax on silver or gold, has no corporate state income tax, no personal state income tax, inventory tax, franchise tax or occupation tax.

“Smart liquidity” feature may provide investors with tax-efficient cash flow
Under The Wyoming Reserve’s repurchase policy, investors may opt in to a share repurchase program after holding their investment for a year, whereby they may request to have The Wyoming Reserve repurchase up to 1% of their shares monthly (12% annually). For investors that elect to enroll in the “smart liquidity” feature, repurchases will be at the stated quarterly share repurchase value and may qualify to be taxed only on appreciation at long-term capital gains rates. Also available to shareholders is the option for investors to request the repurchase of some or all of their shares at the stated share repurchase value on a quarterly basis, provided they have held their investment for at least one year.

An investors ability to have its shares repurchased is limited to 5% of outstanding shares of The Wyoming Reserve each quarter, on a first-come, first-serve basis. Additionally, any repurchases are subject to contractual obligations or regulatory considerations of The Wyoming Reserve, the terms of its preferred stock, as well as compliance with Wyoming and federal law.

Distinct tax advantages with a “non-real estate” opportunity zone investment
The vault’s location in a qualified opportunity zone (“QOZ”), may allow investors to benefit from federal incentives available for long-term private investment in certain census-designated tracts by allowing tax-free growth on gains from QOZ investments that have been held for a minimum of 10 years.

“Our investors avoid the 28% long-term capital gains collectibles tax that comes with physical ownership of precious metals and have an opportunity to enjoy tax-free growth on any appreciation from their investment in The Wyoming Reserve,” Phair continued. “We believe that the combination of tax advantages, the asset class and our team’s breadth of experience presents a compelling opportunity.”

Additionally, investors who have realized capital gains from the sale of an asset such as stocks, bonds, businesses, real estate and K-1 partnerships, within the past 180 days may invest their capital gains into a qualified opportunity fund (“QOF”) and receive temporary deferral on the tax liabilities from their capital gains, with the length of the deferral depending on when the QOF investment is made.

For additional information and to request offering materials, interested parties, who qualify as “accredited investors,” are encouraged to email [email protected].

Consisting of a team of individuals whose breadth of experience is only matched by their commitment and purpose to deliver and protect valued assets, The Wyoming Reserve leverages the combined powers of experience, innovation, and determination to meet its goal-based financial objectives. To learn more, visit www.thewyomingreserve.com/

The tax consequences of an investment in The Wyoming Reserve are particularly complex. Prospective investors should consult with their own tax advisors, attorneys or accountants in order to fully understand the federal, state, local and any foreign tax consequences of an investment.

Each Investor will be required to represent to The Wyoming Reserve, and provide documentation to verify such representation, that such Investor is an “accredited investor,” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in shares of The Wyoming Reserve’s Common Stock.

The Shares will be subject to restrictions on transferability and resale and may not be sold, pledged or otherwise transferred except as permitted under the Securities Act and the securities laws of other applicable jurisdictions. The Shares will not be listed on any U.S. securities exchange or quoted or traded on or in any U.S. over-the-counter or other market.

Investing in securities of The Wyoming Reserve is speculative, and the offering involves substantial risks and should be considered only by those persons who can afford the risk of loss of their entire investment.

About Velo3D

Velo3D is a metal 3D printing technology company. 3D printing–also known as additive manufacturing (AM)–has a unique ability to improve the way high-value metal parts are built. However, legacy metal AM has been greatly limited in its capabilities since its invention almost 30 years ago. This has prevented the technology from being used to create the most valuable and impactful parts, restricting its use to specific niches where the limitations were acceptable.

Velo3D has overcome these limitations so engineers can design and print the parts they want. The company’s solution unlocks a wide breadth of design freedom and enables customers in space exploration, aviation, power generation, energy, and semiconductor to innovate the future in their respective industries. Using Velo3D, these customers can now build mission-critical metal parts that were previously impossible to manufacture. The fully integrated solution includes the Flow print preparation software, the Sapphire family of printers, and the Assure quality control system–all of which are powered by Velo3D’s Intelligent Fusion manufacturing process. The company delivered its first Sapphire system in 2018 and has been a strategic partner to innovators such as SpaceX, Honeywell, Honda, Chromalloy, and Lam Research. Velo3D has been named as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies for 2024. For more information, please visit Velo3D.com, or follow the company on LinkedIn or X.

Fund expands the firm’s category-leading Equity Premium Income Suite

NEW YORK, Aug. 19, 2025 — J.P. Morgan Asset Management today announced the launch of the JPMorgan Equity and Options ETF (JOYT) on the Cboe BZX Exchange. JOYT represents a strategic expansion of the Firm’s innovative Equity Premium Income Suite, catering to clients seeking total return or already utilizing the JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (JEPI) and the JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Income ETF (JEPQ).

The fund will integrate dividends, options premium, and capital appreciation in a strategy designed to deliver robust returns with reduced volatility and beta compared to the broad U.S. large-cap market. Unlike traditional income-distributing products, the fund’s options premium will be used to enhance total return.

“JOYT reflects our commitment to providing cutting-edge active ETFs that address the diverse needs of our clients,” said Travis Spence, Global Head of ETFs at J.P. Morgan Asset Management. “This addition offers investors a sophisticated approach to seeking diversified sources of total return beyond market appreciation.”

Led by Hamilton Reiner, manager of JEPI and JEPQ, the portfolio management team brings over 60 years of combined experience. Reiner oversees more than $370 billion as J.P. Morgan Asset Management’s CIO of Core Equity and Head of U.S. Derivatives.

“JOYT supercharges our suite of options-based strategies, standing as a dynamic counterpart to JEPI and JEPQ,” explained Hamilton Reiner. “JOYT is the go-to choice for those who have used or are exploring JEPI and JEPQ but are less income focused and more total return oriented.”

The fund is priced competitively at 35 basis points, consistent with JEPI and JEPQ.

BETHESDA, Md., Aug. 19, 2025 — Green Minting Technologies, Corp. (“Mint”), announced today the strategic investment commitment of up to $150 Million USD with GEM Digital Limited through a token subscription agreement to develop a state-of-the-art, 600-Megawatt, off-grid, renewable energy, Bitcoin mining and AI datacenter project.  The partnership is set to accelerate Mint’s mission of bringing renewably-powered cloud computing to the masses through its $MINT token, which enables tokenholders to buy compute power by the hash in order to leverage low-cost, renewable energy to power applications like Bitcoin mining on Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (“ASICs”) or training Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) on Graphics Processing Units (“GPUs”).  

As part of the $150 Million USD investment commitment, Mint will be listing its $MINT tokens on a number of the leading centralized exchanges in its Initial Exchange Offering (“IEO”), where it is targeting to raise $400 Million USD.  

“Mint is re-democratizing the Bitcoin mining landscape by fractionalizing the energy and computing infrastructure into $MINT Tokens.  In the beginning, Bitcoin mining was truly distributed across individual users. As Bitcoin mining infrastructure becomes increasingly expensive, individual users can’t compete, particularly at today’s retail energy prices.  Through this partnership with GEM, we can deploy our $MINT Tokens to enable individual users to gain the benefit of renewable, scaled operations – without the upfront costs associated with developing utility-scale energy generation and datacenter infrastructure. Bitcoin mining can now be powered by the masses once again, thanks to the $MINT Token,” said Alex Wey, CEO and co-founder.

As part of the 600-Megawatt project, Mint will dedicate a portion of the infrastructure to developing a Tier III/IV datacenter to host GPUs and power AI tools, alongside its core Bitcoin Mining operations. 

To learn more about $MINT, the project, and about how to participate in this Initial Exchange Offering and its Presale, visit the $MINT website https://www.green-mint.com/.
