Almonty Appoints Respected U.S.-Based Financial Executive Brian Fox as Chief Financial Officer
Almonty Industries Inc. (' Almonty ' or the ' Company ') (NASDAQ: ALM) (TSX: AII) (ASX: AII) (Frankfurt: ALI1), a leading global producer of tungsten critical to the U.S. defense and technology sectors, today announced the appointment of Brian Fox, CPA as Chief Financial Officer, succeeding Mark Gelmon, CPA,CA, effective August 25, 2025. Mr. Fox most recently served as Chief Financial & Operating Officer at CBIZ Marks Paneth, a top-tier U.S. accounting and advisory firm, where he played a key role in strategic growth initiatives and post-merger integration. His prior experience includes leadership roles at Loureiro Engineering and United Subcontractors, as well as senior audit work at Arthur Andersen. He holds a Master's degree in Management from Harvard University and a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from the University of Connecticut. Mr. Gelmon, who joined Almonty in 2015 through its acquisition of Woulfe Mining Corp. (former owner of the Sangdong Mine Project) and became CFO in 2017, will remain involved with the Company as a financial consultant. The Company thanks Mr. Gelmon for his unwavering dedication and years of service. Lewis Black, Chief Executive Officer of Almonty, commented: 'As Almonty advances its U.S. redomiciling strategy following our successful US$90 million public offering and Nasdaq listing, the appointment of a U.S.-based executive with deep financial and operational acumen was a deliberate and strategic move. Brian brings exactly the type of disciplined execution and institutional-grade financial leadership we need as we scale operations and align with U.S. capital markets. His track record in guiding complex organizations through growth and transformation will prove invaluable. We thank Mark for his years of dedication and are thrilled to welcome Brian to the team.' About Almonty Almonty (NASDAQ: ALM) (TSX: AII) (ASX: AII) (Frankfurt: ALI1) is a leading supplier of conflict-free tungsten – a strategic metal critical to the defense and advanced technology sectors. As geopolitical tensions heighten, tungsten has become essential for armor, munitions, and electronics manufacturing. Almonty's flagship Sangdong Mine in South Korea, historically one of the world's largest and highest-grade tungsten deposits, is expected to supply over 80% of global non-China tungsten production upon reaching full capacity, directly addressing critical supply vulnerabilities highlighted by recent U.S. defense procurement bans and export restrictions by China. With established operations in Portugal and additional projects in Spain, Almonty is strategically aligned to meet rapidly rising demand from Western allies committed to supply-chain security and defense readiness.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information This news release contains 'forward-looking statements' and 'forward-looking information' within the meaning of applicable securities laws. All statements, other than statements of present or historical facts, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions and accordingly, actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. You are hence cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as 'plan', 'development', 'growth', 'continued', 'intentions', 'expectations', 'emerging', 'evolving', 'strategy', 'opportunities', 'anticipated', 'trends', 'potential', 'outlook', 'ability', 'additional', 'on track', 'prospects', 'viability', 'estimated', 'reaches', 'enhancing', 'strengthen', 'target', 'believes', 'next steps' or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results 'may', 'could', 'would', 'might' or 'will' be taken, occur or be achieved. Forward-looking statements in this news release include, but are not limited to, statements concerning the completion of the Offering, the Company's redomiciling initiatives, the Company's position as a leading supplier of tungsten to the U.S. and its allies, the timing of any listing of the Common Shares on the Nasdaq, the continued listing of the Common Shares on the TSX and the ASX and trading on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, and the use of proceeds of the Offering. Forward-looking statements are based upon certain assumptions and other important factors that, if untrue, could cause actual results to be materially different from future results expressed or implied by such statements. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate. Key assumptions upon which the Company's forward-looking information is based include, without limitation, the absence of market conditions that could adversely impact the Offering or the intended listing of the Common Shares on the Nasdaq; the satisfaction of all listing requirements of the Nasdaq and continued listing requirements of the TSX and ASX; the achievement of any closing conditions to the Offering; and the absence of material adverse changes in the Company's industry or the global economy including interest rates, inflationary pressures, supply chain disruptions, and commodity market volatility. Forward-looking statements are also subject to risks and uncertainties facing the Company's business, including, without limitation, the risks and uncertainties identified in the Registration Statement; risks relating to the Offering not being completed in a timely manner or at all, including due to unfavourable market or other conditions or factors; the possibility that the required approvals for or conditions to the Offering will not be received or satisfied on a timely basis or at all; changes in the anticipated timing for closing the Offering; business disruption during the pendency of or following the Offering; diversion of management time on Offering-related issues; the ability to retain members of Almonty's management team; the impact of the Offering on relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and other business counterparties; risks related to the reaction of customers, shareholders and members of the public to the Offering; and other events that could adversely impact the completion of the Offering, including industry or economic conditions outside of Almonty's control. Any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. Readers should consider reviewing the detailed risk discussion in the Company's Registration Statement, the most recent Annual Information Form and the amended Management Discussion and Analysis for the three months ended March 31, 2025 filed on SEDAR+, for a fuller understanding of the risks and uncertainties that affect the Company's business and operations. Although Almonty has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause results, level of activity, performance or achievements not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate and even if events or results described in the forward-looking statements are realized or substantially realized, there can be no assurance that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on, Almonty. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements and are cautioned that actual outcomes may vary. Investors are cautioned against attributing undue certainty to forward-looking statements. Almonty cautions that the foregoing list of material factors is not exhaustive. When relying on Almonty's forward-looking statements and information to make decisions, investors and others should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other uncertainties and potential events. Almonty has also assumed that material factors will not cause any forward-looking statements and information to differ materially from actual results or events. However, the list of these factors is not exhaustive and is subject to change and there can be no assurance that such assumptions will reflect the actual outcome of such items or factors.

Streaming Is Crowded: Why FuboTV Is Still in the Game
Key Points FuboTV's subscriber and revenue growth is going the wrong way. Disney's deal could be the turning point. Fubo still has to prove it can stand on its own two feet. 10 stocks we like better than fuboTV › FuboTV (NYSE: FUBO) has never been shy about its ambitions -- providing a live-TV streaming platform built for sports fans, cord-cutters, and viewers who still want to surf channels without a cable box. But bold plans alone don't pay the bills. And, for quite some time now, neither has Fubo. Although the company carved a niche for itself in live sports streaming, its subscriber numbers have been falling, profits have been missing, and the path forward is a little foggy. Still, a recent deal with Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS) could be the spark Fubo needs. It may not be enough to save the streaming service stock entirely, but it gives the company something it's lacked for a while: momentum. And for investors with patience, that could be enough to matter. Image source: Getty Images. Subscriber slippage and red ink Let's start with the bad news first. In the first quarter of 2025, Fubo's North American paid subscriber count fell to 1.47 million, down from 1.676 million just three months prior. Revenue in the region ticked up slightly to $408 million, but that growth came as free cash flow remained deep in negative territory at $62 million. Outside North America, the story wasn't much better. International subscribers dropped 11% year over year, with segment revenue flatlining around $8.4 million. The momentum that once made Fubo a promising growth stock has, it seems, all but stalled. Guidance for Q2 expected revenue to dip to as low as $340 million, another 10% decline. Things seem rough. So why isn't this the end? Enter Disney Now, the good news. In January, Fubo announced a surprise agreement with Walt Disney. The entertainment giant and its partners agreed to pay $220 million and provide a $145 million term loan to acquire a whopping 70% of Fubo. While the two live TV businesses will continue to operate separately, the deal brings them under the same umbrella, creating a combined footprint that's expected to serve more than 6.2 million North American subscribers. It's exactly the kind of deal that Fubo needs, for it gives it three things it hasn't quite enjoyed: scale, capital, and content leverage. It also gives Disney a stronger foothold in the live streaming TV space, a market it's not exactly dominating. Although live TV streaming has about 20.9 million paid subscribers in the U.S., only about 4.6 million are subscribed to Hulu+ Live TV. Nearly double that number (about 8 million) belong to Alphabet 's YouTube TV, a subscriber base that's projected to outsize legacy TV distributers like Charter Communications by 2026, according to Forbes. It's not clear yet whether combining with FuboTV will move the needle against YouTube TV, but it at least gets Disney back in the conversation. Will the deal save Fubo? Although the Disney agreement would offer scale and stability, it's not a done deal just yet. And even if it closes, it won't fix Fubo overnight. So, at this point in the game, it's worth asking: What does Fubo's future look like without Disney? Let's start with the fundamentals. Fubo already took big steps to tighten its operations. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) improved by $37 million year over year in Q1. Free cash flow is negative, but it's trending in the right direction, having improved by $9.3 million since the first quarter of last year. Even with these gains, however, the picture isn't ideal. Guidance for Q2 implies a continued drop in subscribers and revenue. And with total content costs rising industrywide, it's unclear how long Fubo can sustain its programming lineup without the negotiating power that comes from scale. Competing with tech giants like Alphabet or legacy players like Comcast requires either a massive subscriber base or deep pockets. And Fubo has neither. In that light, the Disney partnership looks more and more like a necessity. Without it, Fubo may still have a path to profitability. But it's a narrow one, and any misstep could knock it off course. A calculated gamble FuboTV isn't for the faint of heart. The company is still bleeding cash, subscriber trends are headed south, and the success of the Disney deal is far from guaranteed. But that deal is also the best chance Fubo's ever had to become something sustainable. It offers a path, maybe not to greatness, but at least to stability. If you're an investor who can tolerate risk and wait for the deal to execute, this might be a compelling time to buy in. Should you invest $1,000 in fuboTV right now? Before you buy stock in fuboTV, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and fuboTV wasn't one of them.

Global shares are mostly higher as investors focus on US trade talks with China
TOKYO (AP) — Global shares were mixed Tuesday at the outset of a second day of trade talks between Chinese and U.S. officials. France's CAC 40 jumped 1.1% in early trading to 7,887.57, while the German DAX rose 1.0% to 24,191.38. Britain's FTSE 100 added 0.3% to 24,191.38. The future for the S&P 500 was up 0.2%. The future for the Dow Jones Industrial Average edged 0.1% higher. Japan's benchmark Nikkei 225 fell 0.8% to 40,674.55 on broad selling of major companies including automakers and big banks. Toyota Motor Corp. dipped 2.3% and Honda Motor Co. fell 2.1%. Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group finished 1.8% lower, while Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group stock dipped 1.6%. Hong Kong's Hang Seng dropped 0.2% to 25,524.45, while the Shanghai Composite gained 0.3% to 3,609.71. Analysts said investors were watching for the latest from U.S. President Donald Trump and U.S. trade talks with talks with China in Stockholm. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng were meeting in the Swedish capital. 'Aside from addressing economic imbalances, tariffs are also now well entrenched in the geo-political arena,' Tan Boon Heng of the Asia & Oceania Treasury Department at Mizuho Bank said in a commentary. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 edged 0.1% higher to 8,704.60. South Korea's Kospi gained 0.7% to 3,230.57. Samsung Electronics edged 0.3% higher after jumping nearly 7% on Monday on news that it signed a deal with Tesla to provide computer chips for its electric vehicles. This week will bring a flurry of potentially market-moving data releases, corporate earnings and an interest rate decision by the Federal Reserve. The widespread expectation on Wall Street is that Fed officials will wait until September to resume cutting interest rates, though a couple of Trump's appointees could dissent in the vote. The Fed has been on hold with interest rates this year since cutting them several times at the end of 2024. On Monday, the S&P 500 was nearly flat, edging up by less than 0.1% to 6,389.77 and setting an all-time high for a sixth straight day. The Dow dipped 0.1% to 44,837.56, while the Nasdaq composite added 0.3% to its own record, closing at 21,178.58. Hundreds of U.S. companies are lined up to report how much profit they made during the spring, with nearly a third of the businesses in the S&P 500 index scheduled to deliver updates. Companies are broadly under pressure to deliver solid growth in profits following big jumps in their stock prices the last few months. Much of the gain was due to hopes that Trump would walk back some of his stiff proposed tariffs, and critics say the U.S. stock market looks expensive unless companies will produce bigger profits. In energy trading, benchmark U.S. crude jumped 50 cents to $67.21 a barrel. Brent crude, the international standard, gained 47 cents to $69.79 a barrel. In currency trading, the U.S. dollar fell to 148.53 Japanese yen from 148.56 yen. The euro cost $1.1567, down from $1.1589.
