DEADLINE ALERT: Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Investigates Claims on Behalf of Investors of CTO Realty Growth
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential claims against CTO Realty Growth, Inc. ('CTO' or the 'Company') (NYSE: CTO) and reminds investors of the October 7, 2025 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company. Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia. The firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its founding in 1995. See As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (i) CTO's dividends were less sustainable than Defendants had led investors to believe; (ii) the Company used deceptive and unsustainable practices to artificially inflate its AFFO and overstate the true profitability of its Ashford Lane property; (iii) accordingly, CTO's business and/or financial prospects were overstated; and (iv) as a result, Defendants' public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. On June 25, 2025, Wolfpack Research ("Wolfpack") published a report entitled "CTO: The B. Riley of REITs" (the "Wolfpack Report" or the "Report"), which compared CTO unfavorably to B. Riley, a financial services company that recently lost more than 90% of its value amid three years of losses, soured investments, delayed financial reports and revelations that the SEC had been investigating whether the firm gave shareholders an accurate picture of its health. Citing interviews with former employees and whistleblowers, the Wolfpack Report accused CTO of, among other things, "not generat[ing] enough cash to pay its recurring capex and cover its dividends since converting to a REIT in 2021" and instead "rel[ying] on dilution (increasing shares outstanding by 70% since December 2022) to cover a $38 million dividend shortfall from 2021 to 2024," employing a "manipulative definition of [AFFO] where they exclude recurring capex, unlike all of their self-identified shopping center REIT peers," and "us[ing] a sham loan to hide the collapse of a top tenant from shareholders at Ashford Lane." (Emphasis in original). Further, Wolfpack predicted imminent further dilution of the Company, noting that CTO has just $8.4 million in cash while facing quarterly dividends of $14 million and average recurring capital expenditures of $5.7 million per quarter, along with approximately $12 million in additional planned capital expenditures. On this news, CTO's stock price fell $0.98 per share, or 5.42%, to close at $17.10 per share on June 25, 2025. The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not. Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding CTO's conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others. To learn more about the CTO Realty Growth class action, go to or call Faruqi & Faruqi partner Josh Wilson directly at 877-247-4292 or 212-983-9330 (Ext. 1310).

Apple's US manufacturing promises are 'uneconomic' & unrealistic
On Wednesday at the White House, President Trump and Apple (AAPL) CEO Tim Cook announced Apple's additional $100 billion investment into US manufacturing, for a total of $600 billion. Needham & Company senior media and internet analyst Laura Martin joins Market Catalysts with Julie Hyman to discuss the latest. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Market Catalysts. So, Tim Cook joining President Trump at the White House Wednesday evening to announce the company's plan to invest another $100 billion into the US on top of the 500 billion it pledged earlier this year. The company's looking to avoid painful tariff pressures, bringing more of a supply chain and advanced manufacturing to the US. We want to get an analyst take on this investment with Laura Martin, Needham & Company senior media and internet analyst. Good to see you, Laura. Hi. So, I've seen some analyst commentary this morning that the way Tim Cook handled this was masterful, right? He presented a a gift to President Trump, like a little statuette, I guess you would call it, you know. I I'm curious to get your take on this and and how you think Cook has sort of finessed this situation. So, I wish they'd started at 200 million the first time. So when he raised it by 100 billion yesterday, it would have been 300 instead of six. But I think this is a way to buy down tariffs currently from India and China and get an exemption for Apple while promising to spend money over a four-year term, but if it ends up going past Trump, they may never have to actually deliver on. Well, that that was going to be my question here, you know, do they actually spend this money? What do they actually spend it on? Or is just is this indeed sort of a waiting game? So, I think they'll like they've already made commitments, and we saw a couple of the companies that they announced yesterday, um, in Texas saying, hey, they just got a $2.5 billion deal with Apple, like they just signed it because Apple has to go in and sign contracts with all these people. But these are $2 billion dollar contracts, and they just committed 600 billion over four years. So I think they're gonna have trouble spending that much money in America over the next four years. But more important, the more important question is, are they going to get tariff relief from India and China because it'd be horrible if they didn't, and that was hurting the prices of their iPhones today, and yet they have this horrible commitment to spend all this money, um, which will increase the cost of iPhones frankly, over the next four years. And so I guess there's no way of knowing if they're going to get that tariff relief, and and your sort of like backdrop for this stock. You I know you have a hold, uh, rating on it right now is that, you know, there has to be an iPhone iPhone replacement cycle. I imagine an iPhone replacement cycle is not going to be helped if iPhones get more expensive. Correct. I you know, our estimate is that if they moved all of the manufacturing assembly to America, iPhone prices would triple, and they start at like $1,200, $1,400 per iPhone. So like it's sort of uneconomic to bring a lot of the, um, a lot of the assembly back to America, but I understand that they really do need to get tariff relief right now for the new iPhones that go on sale in September, starting in September. And do you expect that they will also take a hit to margins, or is Apple able to pass on a lot all maybe all, if not most of that cost? I believe they'll pass on all of the costs, and they will not take a margin hit.
