香港, 2024年10月7日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 近期，在市場需求邊際改善、下游應用驅動強勁、全球地緣風險波動等多重因素共振之下，全球鋁市場經歷了一波顯著的價格上行，行業基本面呈逐步向好態勢。當此機遇，東南亞頂級氧化鋁生產企業Nanshan Aluminium International於9月26日向港交所遞交了A1招股書，擬向資本市場發起沖擊。根據弗若斯特沙利文的資料，截至2023年底，東南亞主要的氧化鋁生產國為印尼和越南。Nanshan Aluminium International是東南亞並列第一的優質氧化鋁製造商，按2023年的設計產能計，在印尼及東南亞排名首位。自成立以來，公司持續整合原材料供應優勢，推動產銷量攀升，促進業務發展並不斷提升市場份額。母公司背景雄厚，業務發展基礎堅實招股書顯示，Nanshan Aluminium International的控股股東為南山鋁業（600219.SH），於1999年在A股主板上市。南山鋁業深耕鋁行業數十年，建立了完整的產業鏈，產銷量國內領先，鋁型材生產線水平先進，在鋁行業積累了豐富的技術儲備及專業經驗，目前為世界短距離內產業鏈最完整的鋁加工企業。在整個氧化鋁產業鏈，南山鋁業有著紮實的技術積累。在Nanshan Aluminium International的發展過程中，南山鋁業不僅提供技術、專業知識，亦提供資金、資源等積極支持公司發展，為公司在東南亞開展業務奠定堅實基礎。依託南山鋁業在整個氧化鋁產業鏈的優勢地位，公司於2017年開始在印尼建設氧化鋁生產基地的籌備工作，並完成了一期氧化鋁生產項目及二期氧化鋁生產項目的建設。與此同時，Nanshan Aluminium International的主要股東Press Metal在下游電解鋁生產方面實力卓然，而投資者Santony家族及其關聯方擁有豐富的鋁土礦儲量，一直為公司提供優質鋁土礦原材料。股東及戰略合作夥伴的鼎力支持，形成和諧雙贏的協同效應，助力公司持續擴大在鋁產業鏈的業務領域。持續創新技術水平領先，行業龍頭地位凸顯業務模式上，Nanshan Aluminium International以生產和銷售優質冶金級氧化鋁為重點，在印尼採購鋁土礦，並採用低溫拜耳法。其產品以質量著稱，主要滿足東南亞市場的需求，包括生產電解鋁的領先綜合性鋁業生產商及大宗商品貿易商。Nanshan Aluminium International的生產設施位於印尼。印尼是東盟重要成員國，處於東南亞發展趨勢的核心，擁有豐富的鋁土礦資源。東盟成員國之間的經濟合作和一體化為印尼鋁行業的發展提供了肥沃的土壤，同時該國正利用其優勢吸引外商投資氧化鋁產能。受益於穩定的原材料供應、強有力的政策支持及便利的交通網絡，近年來，Nanshan Aluminium International業務發展迅速。公司的生產基地地理位置優越，運輸路線較短，且背靠印尼龐大優質的鋁土礦資源，原材料方面享有全面成本優勢。為保證材料設備採購和產品銷售的及時便捷運輸，亦在生產基地自建港口碼頭，帶來便捷銷售及運輸。公司還主動開展一整套生產及配套設施的建設，借助最先進的生產線及配套設施的無縫運行，有效提高了生產力及運營效率，進而帶來顯著的成本及盈利優勢。根據弗若斯特沙利文的資料，Nanshan Aluminium International氧化鋁的生產成本低於行業平均值。與此同時，Nanshan Aluminium International在生產中採用低溫拜耳法，這項工藝保證了進入焙燒階段的粒徑，確保最終生產出優質氧化鋁顆粒，使得產品質量十分優異。公司產品中小於45μm的顆粒比例遠低於20%的標準要求，不超過6%。根據弗若斯特沙利文的資料，該水平達到行業更高標準。憑藉有利的戰略位置、不斷提高的產能及技術優勢，Nanshan Aluminium International在滿足東南亞日益增長的氧化鋁需求方面保持先發優勢。 2021財年、2022財年、2023財年及2024年上半年，其氧化鋁產量分別達到約0.49百萬噸、1.21百萬噸、1.91百萬噸及1.08百萬噸，呈穩步增長之勢。財務表現方面，公司收益由2021財年的1.73億美元增至2022財年的4.67億美元，並再次激增至2023財年的6.78億美元，CAGR達98.0%，增勢迅猛。於2024年上半年，收益由2023年上半年的2.99億美元進一步增長至4.23億美元，同比增長41.3%。各期毛利率分別達到25.9%、24.0%、29.2%、22.2%及42.2%。綜合來看，生產規模、成本效益、技術進步及嚴格的質量控制等關鍵要素的深度融合，令Nanshan Aluminium International確立了卓越的綜合競爭力，成為東南亞頂級氧化鋁生產企業。印尼經濟前景廣闊，港股「純印尼概念第一股」有望誕生從行業發展前景看，東南亞的經濟擴張速度超過全球平均水平，而印尼既是「一帶一路」倡議在東南亞推進的重要區域，也是東南亞最大經濟體，其連貫的宏觀政策及穩健的投資環境，持續推動氧化鋁行業的穩步增長。據高盛預測，到2050年，印尼將成為全球第四大經濟體。從該地區飆升的需求及強勁的投資勢頭中，Nanshan Aluminium International料將充分獲益。2022年1月， 印尼佐科總統視察Nanshan Aluminium International在印尼的子公司PT Bintan Alumina Indonesia （PT BAI）的氧化鋁項目，其在講話中強調，「印尼有很多豐富的資源，非常歡迎外國企業前來投資、發展、獲利，我們不但可以得到附加值的提升，亦能增加稅收、拉動就業，促進國家經濟繁榮。我特別感謝像南山這樣的企業勇敢在印尼投資發展，正因為有了這樣優秀的企業，才使得印尼工業及下游相關產業鏈得以成長」。佐科總統為Nanshan Aluminium International 在印尼的子公司PT BAI題詞「發展下游產業，促進國家自強」。另值得一提的是，於2023年11月，港交所已將印尼交易所納入其認可證券交易所名單，為印尼企業提供接觸更廣泛區域和全球投資者的機會。此番遞表港交所，意味著Nanshan Aluminium International有望成為港股市場的純印尼概念第一股。 Copyright 2024 亞太商訊 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.

香港, 2024年10月2日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 擁有直播平台花椒和六間房的花房集團（03611）即將觸發香港證券交易退市政策紅線，若公司連續停牌18個月，將被視為自願退市。花房集團自2023年4月因被投資公司調查而停牌以來，已達17個月。停牌期間花房集團的業務並未受影響，2024年半年報顯示，集團期內總收益為9.65億元（人民幣，下同），股東應佔溢利3448.9萬元，同比大增105%。其中海外社交網絡收益更是同比增長9.8%至1.39億元。目前花房集團已向港交所提交復牌文件，若通過港交所審核，花房集團將成為今年第一個實現自救，成功復牌的停牌上市公司。2022年12月12日花房集團正式登陸香港聯合交易所。（資料圖片）根據港交所最新數據顯示，截至7月31日，2024年除牌公司25家，已獲上市委員會批准的除牌公司6家，還有高達79家上市公司處於長期停牌狀態。仔細分析被除牌的25家上市公司，有幾個特徵：一是市值較小，二是大部分屬於消費行業，且無實質性經營業務，沒有足夠的業績支撐其上市地位，有「養殼」之嫌。與很多停牌上市公司業務「擺爛」不同，花房集團在眾多停牌公司中顯然是個異類。8月26日花房集團公布2024年中期業績報告顯示，報告期內，花房集團國內直播及音頻社交網絡業務收益達8.13億元。雖然受停牌影響業務有所下滑，但花椒和六間房在直播平台市場的佔有率一直靠前。記者打開花椒直播和六間房網，均能正常觀看直播。在六間房網的「關於我們」介紹裏表示，六間房是首批文化部授權的「網絡演出試點單位」之一，總註冊用戶已達6000萬，網站擁有簽約藝人25萬，日演藝總時長超過5萬小時。與此同時，花房集團海外社交業務展現出強勁的增長勢頭。中報顯示，花房集團海外社交網絡收益同比增長9.8%至1.39億元，其中海外社交業務的HOLLA Group上半年收益達1.5億元，規模暫不及內地直播業務，但其除稅前可呈報部分利潤達4231.3萬元，相較於集團業務總和的7109.7萬元，佔比高達59.5%。花房集團認為，這一增長主要得益於集團海外業務對其核心市場如北市場的精準定位，以及旗下HOLLA、MONKEY等產品在全球範圍內的用戶規模擴張。記者進入Google市場看到，旗下專注於北美市場的視頻社交軟件MONKEY下載量已達1000萬以上，頗受美國年輕人喜歡。值得留意的是，截至2024年6月30日，花房集團的現金及現金等價物約為人民幣19.3億元，現金流可謂充裕。今年5月花房集團收到港交所復牌指引，7月2日，花房集團再次發布公告表示，將向聯交所遞交經更新復牌建議書，以證明本公司已達成復牌指引所載有關恢復本公司股份買賣的條件。花房集團可謂含着「金湯匙」出生，互聯網「紅衣教主」周鴻禕作為花房集團的實際控制人通過奇虎360、花椒壹號及花椒貳號控制花房集團約36.46%的股權。花房集團的第二大股東是宋城演藝，通過其全資附屬公司Global Bacchus Limited持股花房集團約35.35%的股權。受經濟大環境影響，花房集團兩大股東的日子並不好過，周鴻禕擔任董事長三六零安全科技股份有限公司剛發布的2024年中報顯示，上半年凈現金流為-67.45億元，同比下滑518.03%。受花房集團停牌影響，宋城演藝甚至已經在2023年財報中計提了巨額的長期股權投資減值準備，導致公司凈利潤出現虧損。2024年中報顯示，宋城演藝凈現金流為2.66億元。兩大股東的現金流都不如花房集團19.3億元充裕。表面上看，如果花房集團退市，那麼周鴻禕和宋城演藝兩大股東將蒙受極大損失。可是在花房集團擁有19.3億元現金的情況下，如果退市，兩大股東或成最大贏家。一旦啟動退市流程，不論是私有化還是徹底退市，周鴻禕和宋城演藝兩大股東都將掌握着19.3億元現金的分配權，花房集團現金被分配後，料將極大緩解兩大股東的現金流問題，特別是對周鴻禕而言，一旦獲得花房集團的現金流，將極大地改善其財務狀況。對於中小投資者而言，最不願看到的結果是花房集團退市，被鎖定了18個月流動性的資金或將一無所獲，由於退市涉及清盤等複雜程序，想要拿回投資款同樣要經過複雜的法律程序，對於何時能夠拿回投資款以及能否拿回投資款都存在極大的不確定性。如今，花房集團已經站在了能否復盤的十字路口，如果在港交所最後期限花房集團遞交文件無法通過審核，花房集團將不得不面臨私有化或者退市風險，那麼對中小股東而言都是最壞的結果。目前，花房集團還在等待港交所最後的審核結果，對於有真實業務有現金流積極爭取復盤的停牌上市公司，交易所在復牌審核上也應該有新的標準，不該像對待「殭屍」上市公司那樣「一刀切」，讓其一退了之。 Copyright 2024 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 1, 2024) - Doubleview (TSXV: DBG) (OTCQB: DBLVF) (FSE: 1D4) ("Doubleview" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the 2024 drilling program at the Hat polymetallic mineral deposit, located in Northern British Columbia, has now surpassed 7,500 meters and is continuing. The company anticipates receiving the first assay results of the 2024 drilling season in the very near future. The drilling program will expand the mineral resource, infill areas with limited drill data, and extend the lateral and depth boundaries of the existing resource envelope, which remains open in all directions and at depth.The 2024 drill targets recognize the mineral resource block model from the recently completed Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) and will increase the mineral resource and upgrade the confidence level of the resource categories. The drilling has met expectations, with visual results aligning with and confirming the block model's projections. The Hat deposit hosts several critical minerals as defined in the Canadian Critical Minerals Strategy, including copper, cobalt and, potentially, scandium, and possibly others.Farshad Shirvani, president & CEO of Doubleview, commented, "Year by year, the size of the Hat deposit has been increased by very targeted drilling, bringing it to a footprint of about 1.5km x 1.38km. Our technical and management team has excelled in this endeavor. Furthermore, we've discovered numerous additional elements within the Hat deposit that may become significant and enhance the resource: the Hat deposit may be unique among British Columbia's many. Recent moves by the governments of Canada and British Columbia in recognize the importance of critical minerals and announce targeted infrastructure investments in support of our industry and the many communities and businesses that directly benefit."Selected Drill Results Prior to 2024 Exploration:Every year Doubleview releases details of the year's drilling and activities. The Company website maintains all relevant information. Visual estimates indicate that 2024 drilling has exceeded expectations and will further validate the resource model and increase the dimensions of the mineral resource envelope. Table 1 provides previously announced key intersections, including copper equivalents and selected significant intercepts. These results, combined with the ongoing drilling program, are expected to further validate the Hat deposit's resource model and increase the dimensions of the Hat mineral resource envelope.Table 1: Selected drill results based on current commodity values applied in the resource estimate for the Hat deposit.
