Accenture to Acquire CyberCX, Expanding Cybersecurity Capabilities in Asia Pacific

NEW YORK & MELBOURNE, Australia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Accenture (NYSE: ACN) has agreed to acquire CyberCX, a leading privately-owned cybersecurity services provider serving both private and public sector organizations across Australia, New Zealand and internationally. The move represents Accenture's largest cybersecurity acquisition to date and will significantly bolster Accenture's cybersecurity services in Asia Pacific. It will further expand Accenture's leading position in the region, enhancing its ability to build business resilience, protect critical infrastructure and drive secure enterprise reinvention amidst an increasingly complex regulatory and threat landscape. Established in Melbourne, Australia in 2019, CyberCX is one of the largest and most prominent cybersecurity firms in the Asia Pacific region with a highly skilled workforce of approximately 1,400 professionals. The company's end-to-end services extend across consulting, transformation and managed security services and include advanced capabilities in offensive security and cyber physical security, crisis management, threat intelligence, managed detection and response, as well as strategic advisory, identity, cloud and network security. CyberCX operates a network of advanced security operations centers across Australia and New Zealand, with additional offices in London and New York, combining deep local insight with international reach. Additionally, CyberCX brings innovative AI-powered platforms that deliver cybersecurity services including detection and response, sovereign secure cloud, CyberCX Academy for training and learning as well as proprietary tools for security testing and cyber intelligence. This strategic move is timely given Accenture's recent State of Cybersecurity Resilience 2025 report, which found that 97% of Australian organizations are not adequately prepared to secure their AI-driven future, with 80% lacking the critical data and AI cybersecurity practices needed to protect models, data pipelines and cloud infrastructure. 'CyberCX and Accenture share a mission to harness the power of cyber to help our clients securely navigate change, accelerate business reinvention and build resilience against evolving threats,' said Paolo Dal Cin, global lead, Accenture Cybersecurity. 'By combining Accenture's agentic AI capabilities with CyberCX's strong market leadership, innovative offerings and trusted C-suite and government relationships, we will enable clients across Asia Pacific to transform cybersecurity into a strategic advantage.' CyberCX has established strong ecosystem partnerships across major cybersecurity players such as Microsoft, Palo Alto Networks and CrowdStrike, consistently winning awards as one of the top managed service and system integrators in the region. This success is underpinned by extensive expertise, showcased through over 2,600 certifications. "Client demand for cybersecurity services is accelerating as data and digital environments become increasingly connected and heightened threats are exposed across operational value chains, supply chains and the enterprise. The need for responsible governance is also rising as AI and Quantum technologies advance,' said Peter Burns, who leads Accenture's business in Australia and New Zealand. 'CyberCX's breadth of capabilities, trusted relationships with government and critical infrastructure organizations, and exceptional talent in the region, combined with Accenture's local and global scale and innovation, will help us meet this ever-increasing client need.' John Paitaridis, CEO of CyberCX, said, 'We are immensely proud of the business we have built, becoming one of the leading providers of cybersecurity services in the region. Joining Accenture's global cybersecurity organization enables our exceptional people to combine forces with global capabilities and provide world-leading cybersecurity services to an even greater number of clients across Asia Pacific as we accelerate our growth in the region. Our shared mission for helping clients stay ahead of emerging threats and build resilience makes this a force multiplier.' The acquisition of CyberCX will be the latest in a series of strategic moves by Accenture to expand its cybersecurity capabilities and solutions. Since 2015, Accenture has completed 20 security acquisitions, including most recently acquiring Morphus, MNEMO Mexico and Innotec Security. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. Completion of the acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals.

Amaze Holdings, Inc. (the 'Company') is replacing in its entirety its earnings press release for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025, originally issued on August 14, 2025, to correct certain disclosures contained in the tables entitled 'Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets' for the period ended June 30, 2025, the 'Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations' for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, and the 'Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows' for the six months ended June 30, 2025 as well as the corresponding figures included in the narrative sections in the earnings release for net loss and net loss per share for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Other than the corrections discussed herein, all other information disclosed in the earnings release remains unchanged. The updated earnings release reads: Amaze Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results with 1,134% Year-Over-Year Revenue Growth Accompanying Shareholder Letter Available at With Q2 Revenue Baseline, Company Expects Sequential Topline Growth for Remainder of 2025 NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., Aug. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amaze Holdings, Inc. (NYSE American: AMZE) ('Amaze' or the 'Company'), a global leader in creator-powered commerce, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. Recent Operational Highlights Surpassed 200 million lifetime storefront visits and 12 million active creators, underscoring the Amaze platform's scale and influence in the rapidly expanding creator economy. Announced several marquee partnerships in recent weeks, including Alex Caruso, Jamvana, Loaded Dice, Nutrius, and Ghost Gaming, among others. Partnered with Picsart, allowing users to turn their digital art, edits, and designs into physical products such as hoodies, stickers, and tote bags to sell. Began beta testing program for Amaze Digital Fits, a web-based tool will enable Roblox creators to design avatar fashion with no 3D experience required. Partnered with VisitIQ allowing Amaze to analyze, visualize, and activate first-party fan and creator data across its fast-growing platform, enabling Amaze to turn deep audience insights into smarter marketing, more comprehensive creator support, and product innovation. Launched digital payment strategy designed to modernize global payments, unlock new monetization tools, and enhance financial flexibility, emphasizing Amaze's assertive push to lead in payment innovation. Formed strategic partnership with Parler, enabling creators to sell products directly through Parler's growing network of social media properties including PlayTV and Management Commentary'In our first full quarter as a public company, we took important steps to position Amaze for long-term success,' said Aaron Day, CEO of Amaze. 'To solidify our position as the go-to platform for creators, we launched new integrations like Express Checkout and AI-driven selling tools, and we also expanded monetization opportunities to Roblox players and Picsart users. These innovations helped us surpass 200 million storefront visits and over 12 million active creators on the platform. 'Financially, we generated $0.87 million in net revenue this quarter, which we view as a strong baseline for future growth. Over the past several quarters, we've devoted significant time and effort to recapitalize the business and retool our technology infrastructure. With both initiatives far along, we now have improved liquidity to strategically invest in our business, which we expect to lead to accelerating topline growth and improved KPI performance through the second half of the year.' Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) Gross Merchandise Value (GMV): $3.77 million Average Order Value (AOV): $50.00 (1H 2025) U.S. Conversion Rate: .41% of all traffic Creator Lifetime Value (LTV): $200.00 Total Active Creators with Stores: Over 12 million Total Number of Active Visitors: Over 200 million Second Quarter 2025 Financial ResultsResults compare the second quarter ended June 30, 2025 ('Q2 2025') to the second quarter ended June 30, 2024 ('Q2 2024') unless otherwise indicated. Results from Q2 2024 represent only Fresh Vine Wine, Inc. results. Total revenue increased 1,134% to $0.87 million in Q2 2025 from $0.07 million in the same year-ago period. The increase in net contribution revenue was mostly attributable to the addition of sales from Amaze as the Company closed the acquisition during the first quarter of 2025. Gross profit increased 1,903% to $0.79 million in Q2 2025 from $(0.04) million in the same year-ago period. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to the operating leverage of the Amaze platform, which enables high-margin digital and physical sales with lower incremental cost compared to traditional wholesale models. Net loss was $5.0 million, or $(3.14) per share, in Q2 2025 compared to net loss of $0.88 million, or $(1.30) per share, in the same year-ago period. The increase in net loss is largely driven by a $4.0 million increase in SG&A expenses that are primarily related to operating costs associated with Amaze's creator-focused business model, including personnel, legal and professional services related to the reverse merger, and marketing costs to support platform growth. The Company had $0.31 million in cash at June 30, 2025, compared to $0.16 million at December 31, 2024. OutlookAmaze management expects to build on the base provided by its Q2 performance, both at the top and bottom line. The Company foresees net revenue continuing to ramp sequentially in Q3 as well as into Q4. As a result of these material topline increases, combined with additional organizational efficiencies, Amaze also expects to generate a temporary profit in Q4 2025/Q1 2026 due to an increase in sales related to the seasonality of the business. Amaze's Q3 2025, Q4 2025 and Q1 2026 financial outlook is based on a number of assumptions that are subject to change and many of which are outside our control. If actual results vary from these assumptions, our expectations may change. There can be no assurance that we will achieve these results.

ICE Index Serves as Benchmark for Taiwan's First Multi-Asset ETF Issued by KGI SITE

TAIPEI, Taiwan & NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (NYSE: ICE), a leading global provider of technology and data, today announced that KGI Securities Investment Trust Co., LTD (KGI SITE) has launched the KGI US Top Balanced ETF, Taiwan's first multi-asset exchange-traded fund (ETF), benchmarked to the NYSE TPEx 70-30 Equity Top 10 N-Listed & Treasury 3-10 Year Balanced Index. 'This innovative index is a blend of the large cap, technology-focused equities in the NYSE® Top 10 N-Listed Index and the treasury bonds within the ICE U.S. Treasury 3-10 Year Bond Index, offering a balanced and diversified structure for users,' said Christy Chan, Head of Client Development in APAC at ICE. 'The launch of the KGI US Top Balanced ETF marks a significant milestone as Taiwan's first multi-asset ETF and the inaugural product arising out of an index collaboration between ICE and the Taipei Exchange.' The index co-branding agreement between ICE and the Taipei Exchange (TPEx) was announced in November 2024. ICE leveraged its multi-asset class customized index capabilities to develop the index, which rebalances monthly to a 70% allocation to ten large cap, technology-focused equities, along with a 30% allocation to U.S. Treasury bonds with maturities between three and ten years, creating a rules-based, multi-asset benchmark. 'We're pleased to introduce the KGI US Top Balanced ETF, a core investment product designed to support long-term retirement planning,' said Albert Ding, the Chairman of KGI SITE. 'This ETF not only provides investors with a strategic tool for building financial security, but also embodies KGI SITE's enduring commitment to walking alongside our clients in realizing a prosperous future together.'
