WATERLOO, ONTARIO, Oct 8, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - BlackBerry Limited (NYSE:BB)(TSX:BB), today unveiled new research highlighting the mounting pressure on software engineers and developers to balance rapid innovation with safety and security. The comprehensive survey of 1,000 embedded software developers and engineers from around the world revealed the growing tension between meeting tight project deadlines and maintaining functional safety, with 75% of respondents acknowledging that urgency often forces them to compromise on key safety requirements.Widespread Frustration Leads 74% of Developers to Consider Switching Operating SystemsWhile developers cite security (54%), cost control (52%) and safety certifications (48%) as their ‘top' considerations when selecting an operating system, the survey also highlights significant downstream challenges in each of these areas that have made the vast majority (74%) of respondents open to changing their existing OS. Indeed, of those required to meet international safety standards, 61% say it is extremely or very challenging to meet these specific standards with their current OS. Security concerns (36%) and lackluster performance issues (28%) are the two main reasons respondents are considering changing their current OS.Open-Source Platforms Preferred Yet Fall Short on Safety StandardsOpen-Source operating systems are the preferred foundational platform for almost half (44%) of developers, with an additional 25% indicating no preference for either Open-Source or proprietary offerings. Open-Source platforms are often adopted within development environments due to widespread familiarity with the technology and their open availability, but critically, they do not carry the same safety certifications as many proprietary options which go through rigorous verification and testing to achieve; validating and verifying each stage of the development process to ensure stringent international safety requirements are met."As we enter the era of 'Software-Defined Everything,' where devices and infrastructure increasingly rely on software for operations, new features, and innovation, the importance of functional safety (FuSa) and security are paramount," said John Wall, SVP and Head of BlackBerry QNX. "While 90% of organizations surveyed recognize this as a priority, developers are under growing pressure to meet deadlines and budgets, which is why pre-certified software is so important to enabling organizations to not only meet their goals but do so without compromise."Safety Certification Gaps Cause Costly Delays and Compliance IssuesWorryingly, the survey also revealed that nearly a third (31%) of all respondents admitted that their OS lacked the necessary safety certifications or only had ‘some' of them covered. This gap has no doubt contributed to delays for two-thirds of organizations as they grapple with the complexity, time, and cost-averaging $591,000 and 154 hours of company resources-needed to meet evolving safety standards.Security Vulnerabilities and Breaches Lead to Project DelaysSecurity also remains a pain point for developers, particularly for Open-Source operating systems, which are more likely to experience a breach (46% vs. 40% for proprietary systems). Of those who have encountered a security breach or vulnerability in their OS, 72% reported delays in project timelines directly due to security vulnerabilities, further exacerbating the challenges of maintaining both innovation and robust, secure systems."To thrive in a software-driven world, developers need an OS that prioritizes safety and security," added Wall. "Pre-certified, secure-by-design solutions allow teams to focus on innovation rather than troubleshooting. Choosing the right OS can significantly transform your business by minimizing headaches and enhancing efficiency."Other key findings include:While 73% of organizations prioritize operating system security, the frequency of applying security patches varies, with a notable average of 5 weeks between updates.Operating system issues can have a significant impact on project timelines, with 34% of organizations reporting that they have missed deadlines due to OS-related problems, with the average delay globally being one month.For more information on how BlackBerry QNX's portfolio of embedded software solutions can help accelerate safety-certification, ensure reliability and reduce development time, visit BlackBerry QNX.Methodology: Research was conducted in from July to September by Coleman Parkes and commissioned by BlackBerry QNX, surveying 1,000 embedded software developers and engineers across North America (USA and Canada), Europe (UK, France, and Germany), and APAC (Japan, South Korea).About BlackBerryBlackBerry (NYSE:BB)(TSX:BB) provides intelligent security software and services to enterprises and governments around the world.

香港, 2024年10月7日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 近期，在市场需求边际改善、下游应用驱动强劲、全球地缘风险波动等多重因素共振之下，全球铝市场经历了一波显著的价格上行，行业基本面呈逐步向好态势。当此机遇，东南亚顶级氧化铝生产企业Nanshan Aluminium International于9月26日向港交所递交了A1招股书，拟向资本市场发起冲击。根据弗若斯特沙利文的资料，截至2023年底，东南亚主要的氧化铝生产国为印尼和越南。Nanshan Aluminium International是东南亚并列第一的优质氧化铝制造商，按2023年的设计产能计，在印尼及东南亚排名首位。自成立以来，公司持续整合原材料供应优势，推动产销量攀升，促进业务发展并不断提升市场份额。母公司背景雄厚，业务发展基础坚实招股书显示，Nanshan Aluminium International的控股股东为南山铝业（600219.SH），于1999年在A股主板上市。南山铝业深耕铝行业数十年，建立了完整的产业链，产销量国内领先，铝型材生产线水平先进，在铝行业积累了丰富的技术储备及专业经验，目前为世界短距离内产业链最完整的铝加工企业。在整个氧化铝产业链，南山铝业有着扎实的技术积累。在Nanshan Aluminium International的发展过程中，南山铝业不仅提供技术、专业知识，亦提供资金、资源等积极支持公司发展，为公司在东南亚开展业务奠定坚实基础。依托南山铝业在整个氧化铝产业链的优势地位，公司于2017年开始在印尼建设氧化铝生产基地的筹备工作，并完成了一期氧化铝生产项目及二期氧化铝生产项目的建设。与此同时，Nanshan Aluminium International的主要股东Press Metal在下游电解铝生产方面实力卓然，而投资者Santony家族及其关联方拥有丰富的铝土矿储量，一直为公司提供优质铝土矿原材料。股东及战略合作伙伴的鼎力支持，形成和谐双赢的协同效应，助力公司持续扩大在铝产业链的业务领域。持续创新技术水平领先，行业龙头地位凸显业务模式上，Nanshan Aluminium International以生产和销售优质冶金级氧化铝为重点，在印尼采购铝土矿，并采用低温拜耳法。其产品以质量著称，主要满足东南亚市场的需求，包括生产电解铝的领先综合性铝业生产商及大宗商品贸易商。Nanshan Aluminium International的生产设施位于印尼。印尼是东盟重要成员国，处于东南亚发展趋势的核心，拥有丰富的铝土矿资源。东盟成员国之间的经济合作和一体化为印尼铝行业的发展提供了肥沃的土壤，同时该国正利用其优势吸引外商投资氧化铝产能。受益于稳定的原材料供应、强有力的政策支持及便利的交通网络，近年来，Nanshan Aluminium International业务发展迅速。公司的生产基地地理位置优越，运输路线较短，且背靠印尼庞大优质的铝土矿资源，原材料方面享有全面成本优势。为保证材料设备采购和产品销售的及时便捷运输，亦在生产基地自建港口码头，带来便捷销售及运输。公司还主动开展一整套生产及配套设施的建设，借助最先进的生产线及配套设施的无缝运行，有效提高了生产力及运营效率，进而带来显著的成本及盈利优势。根据弗若斯特沙利文的资料，Nanshan Aluminium International氧化铝的生产成本低于行业平均值。与此同时，Nanshan Aluminium International在生产中采用低温拜耳法，这项工艺保证了进入焙烧阶段的粒径，确保最终生产出优质氧化铝颗粒，使得产品质量十分优异。公司产品中小于45μm的颗粒比例远低于20%的标准要求，不超过6%。根据弗若斯特沙利文的资料，该水平达到行业更高标准。凭借有利的战略位置、不断提高的产能及技术优势，Nanshan Aluminium International在满足东南亚日益增长的氧化铝需求方面保持先发优势。 2021财年、2022财年、2023财年及2024年上半年，其氧化铝产量分别达到约0.49百万吨、1.21百万吨、1.91百万吨及1.08百万吨，呈稳步增长之势。财务表现方面，公司收益由2021财年的1.73亿美元增至2022财年的4.67亿美元，并再次激增至2023财年的6.78亿美元，CAGR达98.0%，增势迅猛。于2024年上半年，收益由2023年上半年的2.99亿美元进一步增长至4.23亿美元，同比增长41.3%。各期毛利率分别达到25.9%、24.0%、29.2%、22.2%及42.2%。综合来看，生产规模、成本效益、技术进步及严格的质量控制等关键要素的深度融合，令Nanshan Aluminium International确立了卓越的综合竞争力，成为东南亚顶级氧化铝生产企业。印尼经济前景广阔，港股「纯印尼概念第一股」有望诞生从行业发展前景看，东南亚的经济扩张速度超过全球平均水平，而印尼既是「一带一路」倡议在东南亚推进的重要区域，也是东南亚最大经济体，其连贯的宏观政策及稳健的投资环境，持续推动氧化铝行业的稳步增长。据高盛预测，到2050年，印尼将成为全球第四大经济体。从该地区飙升的需求及强劲的投资势头中，Nanshan Aluminium International料将充分获益。2022年1月， 印尼佐科总统视察Nanshan Aluminium International在印尼的子公司PT Bintan Alumina Indonesia （PT BAI）的氧化铝项目，其在讲话中强调，「印尼有很多丰富的资源，非常欢迎外国企业前来投资、发展、获利，我们不但可以得到附加值的提升，亦能增加税收、拉动就业，促进国家经济繁荣。我特别感谢像南山这样的企业勇敢在印尼投资发展，正因为有了这样优秀的企业，才使得印尼工业及下游相关产业链得以成长」。佐科总统为Nanshan Aluminium International 在印尼的子公司PT BAI题词「发展下游产业，促进国家自强」。另值得一提的是，于2023年11月，港交所已将印尼交易所纳入其认可证券交易所名单，为印尼企业提供接触更广泛区域和全球投资者的机会。此番递表港交所，意味着Nanshan Aluminium International有望成为港股市场的纯印尼概念第一股。 Copyright 2024 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - October 7, 2024) - Military Metals Corp. (CSE: MILI) (OTC Pink: MILIF) (FSE: QN90) (the "Company" or "Military") continues to advance its role in the global critical minerals sector. The Company has signed a binding Letter of Intent (LOI) to acquire 100% ownership of 1458205 B.C. Ltd. (the "Target"), a private company holding three brownfield projects in Slovakia. This acquisition includes two antimony-focused properties and one tin project, all located within the European Union.The assets include the Trojarova Antimony Project and the Medvedi Tin Project, both containing historical resources dating back to the Soviet era. As part of the transaction, Military Metals will issue 10 million common shares, valued at CAD $5.6 million, to the shareholders of the Target. The Company aims to finalize a definitive agreement and close the acquisition by October 2024.Antimony, a critical component for battery technology, advanced military systems, and other industrial applications, is in high demand globally. As recognized by the United States, European Union, and other leading economies, antimony is classified as a critical mineral. With much of the world's antimony reserves concentrated in China, Russia, and Tajikistan, Military Metals sees an opportunity to enhance Western access to this essential resource."This acquisition strategically positions Military Metals as a leading explorer and developer of antimony," said CEO Scott Eldridge. "The Trojarova and Tienesgrund projects offer significant potential for rapid advancement, particularly given Slovakia's strong mining infrastructure and history. We see this as a perfect alignment with the European Union's Critical Raw Materials Act, opening the door to potential EU funding sources as we advance these projects toward production."The Trojarova Antimony Project, located in Western Slovakia, has been extensively explored, with historical Soviet-era data indicating substantial antimony and gold historical resources. While these estimates are not yet compliant with modern standards, Military Metals plans to validate them with new drilling, ensuring compliance with National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101) requirements.In addition to Trojarova, the Company is acquiring the Tiennesgrund Antimony Project in Eastern Slovakia, which holds a 10 km-long fault-hosted vein system, and the Medvedi Potok Tin Project, a classic tin vein system with underground workings and historical resources. As part of the acquisition, Military Metals will also gain access to small-scale processing equipment, reinforcing its strategy of operational efficiency and innovation.With geopolitical tensions and increasing demand putting pressure on critical mineral supply chains, Military Metals is positioning itself to become a key player in securing Western access to vital antimony resources.Map showing the location of Military's properties in SlovakiaTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10818/225779_fdc5835d347c3af5_001full.jpgThe technical contents of this release were reviewed and approved by Avrom E.
