Alpha Compute Corp. (NASDAQ: ALP): $79.2M in Assets, $23M Projected Annual Revenue, GAMEE Acquisition Complete, and “Own Your Data” Campaign Launches Nationally
Alpha Compute Corp. (Nasdaq: ALP) (“Alpha Compute” or the “Company”), a pioneering technology leader in AI GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS) and AI Confidential Compute, today provided a comprehensive business update covering operational, commercial, and financial progress for the period ended June 4, 2026. The Company enters this reporting period with growing momentum across every dimension of its strategy: enterprise-grade GPU infrastructure is fully operational and revenue-generating, the “Own Your Data” brand campaign is live on three major financial networks (CNBC, FOX Business News, Newsmax), and the acquisition of GAMEE has added one of the world’s largest Telegram-native gaming platforms to Alpha Compute’s ecosystem. Collectively, these developments mark the Company’s transition from infrastructure buildout to operating scale. As of the period ended June 4, 2026, Alpha Compute’s balance sheet (unaudited figures) reflects the cumulative impact of its GPU infrastructure deployments, the GAMEE acquisition closing, and ongoing capital formation activities: Total Assets: $79.2 million Total Liabilities: $44.4 million (including $34.4 million of GPU leases and data center leases) Total Equity: $34.8 million Projected Annual Revenue: $23 million This balance sheet profile reflects the cumulative effect of the Company’s first GPU cluster deployment—ALPHA-01 in Canada. REVENUE GROWTH Revenue growth has been sharp. Alpha Compute entered Q1 2026 with approximately $30,000 in quarterly contracted revenue. Following the May 2026 closing of the $32.2 million, two-year off-take agreement with a leading frontier AI research laboratory—providing $16.1 million in Annual Recurring Revenue from a dedicated cluster of 504 NVIDIA B200 GPUs—the Company has projected annualized revenue run-rate of approximately $23 million. GPU INFRASTRUCTURE: ALPHA-01 AND ALPHA-02 DEPLOYMENTS Alpha Compute operates its GPU infrastructure under two flagship deployment programs: ALPHA-01 — Canada (Live): The Company’s inaugural enterprise-scale Blackwell cluster consists of 504 NVIDIA B200 GPUs and went live for its first enterprise customer in May 2026. The deployment is 100% powered by hydroelectric energy. Under the terms of the binding two-year off-take agreement, a leading frontier AI laboratory has reserved exclusive access to the cluster to accelerate its next-generation model development. The $7.5 million upfront reservation payment secured compute capacity through the full contract term. ALPHA-02 — Sweden (In Progress, 576 NVIDIA B200s): Alpha Compute’s second GPU deployment is in progress, which will add 576 NVIDIA B200 GPUs to its operational fleet once completed. Like ALPHA-01, this cluster is powered entirely by hydroelectric energy, consistent with the Company’s commitment to sustainable, renewable-powered AI infrastructure. Combined with ALPHA-01, Alpha Compute will operate over 1,000 Blackwell-generation GPUs across two facilities “OWN YOUR DATA” — NATIONAL MEDIA CAMPAIGN Alpha Compute has launched “Own Your Data,” a national brand and awareness campaign airing during the NYSE and NASDAQ Market Opens and Market Closes on CNBC, Fox Business News, and Newsmax. The campaign represents a significant step in Alpha Compute’s effort to build public understanding of data sovereignty, digital surveillance, and the role of confidential computing in protecting individuals in the AI economy. The campaign confronts an uncomfortable truth: the connected devices that furnish modern life—smart televisions, video doorbells, baby monitors, and home assistants—frequently function as if they can act less like products you own and more like data pipelines for the companies that made them. By reframing these devices as involuntary participants in mass data collection, Alpha Compute’s “Own Your Data” messaging challenges consumers to reconsider the trade-offs they have implicitly accepted in exchange for digital convenience. GAMEE ACQUISITION — 120 MILLION USERS ENTER THE SOVEREIGN AI ECOSYSTEM Alpha Compute has completed its majority acquisition of GAMEE, the mobile and Telegram-based gaming and digital rewards platform, bringing one of the world’s largest Telegram-native gaming communities into Alpha Compute’s sovereign AI infrastructure ecosystem. The transaction closed in May 2026 following the satisfaction of all applicable regulatory requirements and financial audit conditions. Under the terms of the definitive agreement, Alpha Compute acquired a 60% controlling interest in GAMEE from Animoca Brands at an implied GAMEE valuation of $18 million. Founded in 2015, GAMEE has grown from a mobile gaming aggregator into one of the most widely used gaming platforms globally, with over 120 million registered users across its Telegram and mobile applications. GAMEE powers a proprietary digital rewards engine and has produced large-scale gaming experiences for global brands and intellectual properties including Azuki, NASA, Manchester City, and Mocaverse. GAMEE brings strong financial momentum to Alpha Compute: the platform generated $3.5 million in revenue in 2025 and $926,000 in Q1 2026, with 2026 revenues expected to exceed 2025 levels. The acquisition establishes Alpha Games, Alpha Compute’s new AI gaming division, which will be led by GAMEE’s founder Bozena Rezab as Executive Vice President. Integration priorities include: Merging GAMEE’s gaming distribution infrastructure with Alpha Compute’s Blackwell B200 and B300 GPU clusters, which power Telegram’s Cocoon AI confidential compute network. Launching Phase II agentic gameplay in Q4 2026, enabling users to connect or rent AI agents to participate in dedicated prize pools—accelerating mainstream adoption of AI agents in consumer gaming. Leveraging GAMEE’s 120 million users as a native deployment channel for Alpha Compute’s TEE-secured AI capabilities, making sovereign AI compute tangible at consumer scale. About Alpha Compute Corp.

AI Stock News Agent Offering 24/7 Research, Monitoring & Analysis Launched
Stocknews.ai is a newly launched AI Stock News Agent that delivers continuous research and monitoring of stock market news, providing traders with proprietary sentiment, confidence, and novelty scoring capabilities around the clock. Unlike passive news aggregators, the platform performs active, intelligent analysis to serve a range of users from individual investors to financial professionals, particularly those who lack the institutional research resources available to large firms, enabling them to detect market-moving signals automatically as they emerge. More details can be found at https://stocknews.ai/ As a spokesperson for Stocknews.ai explained, real-time financial news now plays a critical role in trading decisions, particularly in volatile environments where opportunities and risks shift rapidly. Traders generally rely on timely, clear data to adjust strategies and capitalize on developing market opportunities, and accurate, real-time information directly impacts risk management, time management, and trading efficiency. However, while staying informed helps traders manage market complexities with confidence, it is often challenging for individual investors to maintain continuous awareness without succumbing to noise or information overload. As such, Stocknews.ai curates financial news from over 100 sources using artificial intelligence algorithms, an operational scale that ensures broad market coverage while maintaining the quality standards individual investors require. The AI Stock News Agent analyzes financial news and press releases in real time, generating sentiment analysis, confidence scoring, and novelty detection for each development. For instance, when Wave Life Sciences shares dropped over 55% following a failed drug trial, the platform provided an AI recommendation to short WVE, supported by quantifiable metrics: Sentiment scored -80, Confidence reached 90, and Importance registered 95. These analytical outputs translate complex market events into actionable intelligence with measurable confidence levels, enabling traders to make informed decisions quickly. Stocknews.ai users can also receive custom alerts for stocks of personal interest and implement portfolio monitoring with instant AI news alerts, removing the burden of manual surveillance. This capability allows traders to respond to opportunities as they develop rather than discovering them after the fact. Stocknews.ai's founder developed the platform to address frustration with the noise and information overload that now clutters many traditional financial news sites and creates barriers between traders and the information they need. Given that a wealth of new research suggests that AI analysis of news at scale can outperform the market, their platform is a solution grounded in both user experience improvements and quantifiable analytical advantages.

Sniper Auto Trader Expands Global Adoption of Futures Automation Software, Surpasses 2,500 Users in 140+ Countries
An automation software provider narrows the execution gap between institutional and retail traders while maintaining user control over their accounts. Sniper Auto Trader, a futures automation software provider, today announced continued global growth, surpassing 2,500 users across more than 140 countries since its launch in August 2023. Sniper Auto Trader is not a brokerage, trading platform, or fund manager. The company provides locally installed automation software that integrates with third-party brokerage infrastructure, allowing self-directed traders to automate predefined strategies while retaining full control of their accounts. For decades, institutional trading firms have relied on algorithmic execution systems to maintain discipline, speed, and consistency in futures markets. Retail traders, by contrast, have historically faced structural disadvantages, including emotional decision-making, inconsistent execution, and gaps in risk management. Sniper Auto Trader’s software is designed to address those structural challenges through rules-based automation. By executing trades according to programmed logic rather than impulse, traders can reduce emotional interference and apply strategies with greater consistency. “Automation should provide structure, not promises,” said Harman Dhillon, founder of Sniper Auto Trader, who brings more than 25 years of experience across equities, forex, and futures markets. “Our objective is to equip retail traders with institutional-style execution infrastructure while ensuring they remain fully responsible for their decisions.” The software installs locally and integrates with NinjaTrader, enabling users to automate execution while maintaining direct access to their brokerage accounts. The company does not place trades on behalf of users, manage funds, or provide discretionary trading services. In addition to automation infrastructure, the company emphasizes trader education and live support. Monty Sandhu, the company's vice president, brings two decades of corporate finance experience and early personal trading lessons to the firm’s education-first model. Sniper Auto Trader operates on three core pillars: Automation software designed specifically for futures markets Structured education, including live training and mentorship Human-based technical support during active market hours. Futures markets are particularly well-suited for automation due to their liquidity, standardized contracts, and extended global trading hours. These characteristics allow systematic strategies to operate across time zones when paired with disciplined risk parameters. Since launch, the company’s growth across North America, Europe, and Asia reflects increasing retail interest in structured, rules-based trading approaches as automation technology becomes more accessible. Sniper Auto Trader has been featured by outlets including NBC News and Fox News, highlighting broader public interest in automation and financial education. As automation and artificial intelligence continue to change, analysts expect the execution gap between institutional and retail market participants to narrow further. By focusing on infrastructure, transparency, and education rather than performance guarantees, Sniper Auto Trader positions itself within this structural shift in retail trading.

The Tomorrow Company Launches With a Bold Mandate to Build the Infrastructure Layer of the AI-Native Financial Era.
VANCOUVER BC– February 26, 2026 — The Tomorrow Company (“TMRW”) today announced the completion of its strategic merger with Carbon Distributed Technologies AG(“CUT”) and Plato Technologies Inc. , forming an integrated Web3 infrastructure platform positioned at the convergence of artificial intelligence, tokenized real-world assets, and programmable climate markets. The Company is launching with a clear conviction: the next decade of value creation in digital finance will belong to those who build and own infrastructure — not interfaces. Systems that are programmable. Intelligence that is embedded. Assets that are verifiable. Rails that institutions can scale on. Global markets are entering a structural transformation. Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming embedded into capital allocation, enterprise operations, and regulatory oversight. Digital assets are evolving from trading vehicles into programmable utility frameworks capable of moving value instantly and transparently. Climate accountability is moving from narrative commitments to measurable, auditable instrumentation. The Tomorrow Company is designed to operate at the intersection of these structural shifts — and to grow with them. The merger unites two powerful and complementary platforms. CUT Carbon Distributed Technologies AG contributes a tokenized carbon utility framework structured around verifiability, traceability, and retirement mechanics. Built within Liechtenstein’s Blockchain Act framework and deployed on Ethereum Mainnet, CUT’s model emphasizes measurable CO₂ reduction linkage and immutable audit trails across issuance, transfer, and retirement. As regulators, institutions, and global enterprises demand higher standards of disclosure and impact validation, programmable carbon infrastructure becomes foundational to next-generation capital markets. Paul Thomson, Co-Founder of CUT Carbon Distributed Technologies AG, commented: “Tokenized commodities are moving from intention to instrumentation. For tokenized carbon credits, what matters now is verifiability—traceable assets, defensible controls, and retirement mechanics that stand up to real scrutiny. By integrating into The Tomorrow Company’s broader infrastructure platform, we believe we can accelerate adoption and bring institutional-grade carbon instrumentation to global markets.” Complementing this climate utility layer is Plato Technologies Inc. , which brings an AI-driven intelligence engine purpose-built to convert fragmented global data into deployable, decision-ready workflows. Plato’s vertically focused intelligence products are designed for repeat enterprise usage and global distribution, with an operating discipline centered on scalable infrastructure and cost efficiency. Bryan Feinberg, CEO and Founder of Plato Technologies Inc., stated: “AI is only transformative when it moves from insight to execution. This merger connects measurable data verticals with a distribution-driven intelligence engine designed to operate at scale. The opportunity ahead is not incremental — it is to embed AI directly into the infrastructure layer of emerging digital markets.” The Tomorrow Company is structured as a diversified Web3 infrastructure holding platform with multiple reinforcing value engines. The strategy extends beyond a single asset class or vertical. Leadership intends to expand tokenized asset frameworks beyond carbon into additional real-world asset categories where verifiability and programmability unlock new liquidity. The Company plans to accelerate the deployment of vertical AI intelligence products across sectors where data fragmentation creates inefficiencies. It also intends to pursue selective acquisitions and integrations aligned with durable utility, regulatory alignment, and institutional capital flows. Management believes that over the coming years, the convergence of AI and tokenization will redefine how capital is raised, allocated, verified, and measured. Markets will increasingly reward platforms that can demonstrate programmable accountability, embedded intelligence, and infrastructure resilience. TMRW’s long-term objective is to build a compounding portfolio of infrastructure assets that operate beneath market cycles — generating value through adoption, integration, and scale rather than volatility. The Company’s growth roadmap includes expanding institutional partnerships, deepening blockchain-native infrastructure capabilities, and deploying AI systems that integrate directly into financial and enterprise workflows. As tokenized real-world assets and AI-native markets expand globally, The Tomorrow Company aims to position itself as a foundational infrastructure layer — enabling new asset classes, accelerating measurable climate action, and embedding intelligence into digital capital flows. This launch represents the beginning of an expansion strategy, not its culmination. The leadership of The Tomorrow Company believes that the coming cycle will see a dramatic re-rating of infrastructure-layer platforms that combine regulatory alignment, programmable assets, and deployable AI systems. TMRW is entering the market with the ambition to help define that category. About The Tomorrow Company The Tomorrow Company is a Web3 infrastructure and digital asset holding company focused on building foundational rails for the AI-native financial era. Through strategic acquisitions, tokenized utility frameworks, and vertically deployable intelligence products, TMRW seeks to architect scalable systems designed for institutional-grade adoption and long-term compounding growth. About CUT Carbon Distributed Technologies AG CUT Carbon Distributed Technologies AG operates CUT.eco, a tokenized carbon utility platform focused on verification, traceability, and transparent retirement mechanics under Liechtenstein’s blockchain regulatory framework. About Plato Technologies Inc. Plato Technologies Inc. develops AI-powered, vertically focused intelligence products designed to transform aggregated global data into deployable workflows and scalable Web3 AI capabilities.

These statements are based on current expectations and involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially.

Open World and VerifyMe Sign Merger Agreement
VerifyMe, Inc. (NASDAQ: VRME) (“VerifyMe”), a provider of authentication and precision logistics technologies and Open World Ltd. (“Open World”), a blockchain infrastructure and real-world asset (“RWA”) tokenization platform, today announced the execution of an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Agreement”). The merger positions the combined entity as a leading infrastructure provider in the digital asset and tokenization sector. “We are pleased to announce the next step in our plan to merge with Open World to align our complementary strengths,” said Adam Stedham, CEO of VerifyMe. “We believe the combined platform will deliver durable infrastructure and governance that supports digital asset innovation and long-term shareholder value.” The combined entity is expected to focus on token listings, regulated digital asset infrastructure, enterprise-grade compliance frameworks and institutional RWA tokenization across multiple jurisdictions. “This agreement represents a meaningful inflection point for both organizations,” said Matt Shaw, co-founder and CEO of Open World. “As institutional demand for regulated digital asset infrastructure continues to accelerate, bringing together complementary capabilities enables us to operate at the scale and governance standards required for real-world asset tokenization to transition from early adoption into mainstream financial markets.” The announcement builds on Open World’s previously disclosed initiatives, including the establishment of its national-scale RWA Center of Excellence in Saudi Arabia, as well as the company’s infrastructure collaboration with Abstract to support regulated, infrastructure-grade assets. RWA tokenization activity continues to gain momentum in the United States and Saudi Arabia, with significant asset classes expected to be brought onto the Open World platform as regulatory clarity advances and institutional participation expands. Upon closing, the merger is expected to result in the combined company being listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under a new ticker symbol, subject to satisfying certain customary closing conditions, including the receipt of approvals from VerifyMe’s shareholders and the listing of the combined company’s common stock on Nasdaq.

EverForward Introduces Adaptive Trading Framework Under Portfolio Manager Brian Ferdinand
EverForward has unveiled its new Adaptive Trading Framework, a structured approach to navigating modern markets that prioritizes flexibility, timing, and disciplined conviction. The framework is led by Portfolio Manager Brian Ferdinand, who directs its design, ongoing refinement, and real-world application. The Adaptive Trading Framework is built to respond to changing market conditions rather than forcing a single strategy across every environment. Instead of assuming markets behave the same way each day, the framework adjusts based on volatility, liquidity, sentiment, and structural signals. “Markets don’t reward rigidity,” Ferdinand said. “They reward awareness. This framework is about staying aligned with what’s actually happening, not what we wish was happening.” At its core, the framework evaluates when markets are trending, when they are mean-reverting, and when conditions are unstable enough to warrant stepping aside. By identifying regime shifts early, it aims to avoid low-quality trading periods and become more assertive when opportunity is unusually clear. Ferdinand leads the framework with an emphasis on decision structure rather than prediction. The objective is not to forecast every move, but to establish clear rules around participation, exposure, and selectivity. “Being right isn’t the objective,” Ferdinand said. “Being positioned correctly for the environment is.” EverForward’s approach centers on timing and context. The framework analyzes crowd behavior, volatility expansion, liquidity stress, and narrative pressure to determine whether markets are calm, emotional, or distorted. Each state calls for a different response—ranging from cautious observation to decisive action. According to EverForward, many trading failures come not from flawed ideas, but from sound ideas used in the wrong environment. The Adaptive Trading Framework is designed to prevent that mismatch. “Most losses come from forcing activity,” an EverForward spokesperson said. “This framework is built to tell us when not to trade as much as when to trade.” Beyond strategy, Ferdinand also shapes the firm’s internal culture, reinforcing patience, clarity, and accountability. His role extends beyond portfolio decisions to guiding how the firm thinks about conviction, restraint, and long-term discipline. “Speed looks impressive,” Ferdinand said. “But restraint is what keeps you alive long enough to matter.” The launch reflects EverForward’s belief that today’s markets—shaped by algorithms, social sentiment, global shocks, and instant information—demand dynamic thinking rather than fixed playbooks. Rather than chasing every headline or price swing, the framework is designed to filter noise, recognize real distortion, and act only when conditions truly justify it. “In markets, the loudest moment is rarely the most important,” Ferdinand said. “The important moment is the one where everyone else is wrong.” With the Adaptive Trading Framework now live, EverForward will continue refining it through ongoing research, real-world testing, and leadership from Ferdinand. The firm views adaptability not as a tactic, but as a philosophy—built on patience, awareness, and the discipline to act only when it truly counts.

Options Trading & Spread Strategies For All Levels: Education Platform Announced
Weekly Income Trader has announced a comprehensive options education platform designed to accommodate traders at every skill level, from complete beginners to experienced market participants. The platform combines structured training on spread strategies with an active social community, intended to help members develop trading skills while forming connections with fellow traders. More details can be found at https://www.thetikitradingclub.com/wit The platform's curriculum focuses on lower-capital strategies, including diagonal call spreads, diagonal put spreads, and bull call spreads. The team explains that these approaches are designed to require less upfront investment compared to traditional covered call strategies, making options trading more accessible to those with smaller account balances. Members typically spend only a few hours per week on trading activities. Recent industry data shows that 40% of day traders quit within their first month, while 87% don't make it past three years, according to options trading research. Additionally, retail traders face a 30% higher likelihood of rapid losses during earnings-driven option trades, with less than 20% adopting protective strategies during these volatile periods. Weekly Income Trader's teaching approach addresses these challenges through structured training on strategies with set risk levels. The platform emphasizes diagonal spreads and bull call spreads, which allow traders to know their maximum profit and loss before entering positions, a framework which aims to help members avoid the over-trading and poor position sizing that often lead to account losses. "Options trading requires understanding not just the mechanics, but also disciplined risk management and realistic expectations," a representative explains. "Our platform focuses on strategies that work for people who have full-time jobs and other commitments, not just professional traders with unlimited time." Weekly Income Trader's educational model emphasizes practical application over theoretical knowledge, with trade ideas shared regularly among members. The platform encourages members to learn from both successful and unsuccessful trades, fostering an environment where realistic trading experiences are discussed openly. Founded by Rick Stambough in 2025, Weekly Income Trader utilizes the Skool platform for its membership community. The online resource offers real-time notifications, educational courses, member feeds, and collaborative features designed to facilitate information sharing among traders.
