Sable Offshore Corp. (SOC) Securities Class Action:
The suit claims that on May 19, Sable triggered a stock frenzy with a press release announcing it had 'restarted oil production at SYU,' a claim that sent its shares soaring by a remarkable 12.5% in a single day. Riding this wave of investor enthusiasm, the company quickly priced a secondary stock offering two days later, raising a substantial $256.5 million.
But the euphoria was short-lived. Just as the ink was drying on the offering, a letter from California's Lieutenant Governor, Eleni Kounalakis, allegedly surfaced that accused Sable of painting a deceptive picture. According to the complaint, the letter bluntly stated that the company's press release 'appears to mischaracterize the nature of recent activities' and that the so-called 'restart' was nothing more than 'well-testing procedures required by the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement prior to restart.' In a damning indictment, the letter is said to have declared, 'Characterizing testing activities as a restart of operations is not only misleading but also highly inappropriate.'
When the contents of this letter were reported in the financial press on May 28, the market delivered a swift verdict. Sable's stock price plunged over 15% the very next day, wiping out the gains that had enticed new investors just a week earlier.
The litigation now aims to hold the company accountable for what some are calling a calculated maneuver to raise capital under false pretenses. The case, Johnson v. Sable Offshore Corp., et al., is being litigated in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California.
'We're investigating whether Sable may have misled investors about its restart progress and purported restart of SYU,' said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.

Clinton G. Johnson Launches BreakThrough At Work: A Data-Driven Coaching and App Platform Tackling Talent Blindspots in Corporate America
An innovative coaching program and mobile app by Us At Spaces equips Black, Latinx, and women professionals to gain visibility, recognition, and leadership readiness while helping companies reduce the $398B cost of underutilized talent. PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — National Geographic Explorer and antiracist geoarchitect Clinton G. Johnson today announced the launch of BreakThrough At Work, a dual 8-week coaching program and mobile app designed to address one of corporate America's most persistent challenges: the systemic invisibility of Black, Latinx, and women professionals in leadership pipelines. The program uses Johnson's Undeniable Storytelling Method to help high-potential professionals overcome 'Talent Blindspots'—structural and cultural patterns that cause organizations to overlook qualified employees despite measurable impact. Combining live coaching, career templates, and a microlearning app, BreakThrough At Work offers a scalable, data-driven solution to improve representation, retention, and leadership readiness. 'Too many brilliant professionals are doing the work, driving results, and still being overlooked,' Johnson said. 'If we want to fix what's broken in our workplaces, we must start by equipping the people stuck in talent blindspots.' The Business ImpactWorkforce studies highlight the urgency: 70% of employees of color report working harder just to be seen as competent (CTI). Women of color hold less than 5% of senior roles despite earning the majority of advanced degrees in their demographic (LeanIn & McKinsey). Leadership visibility gaps cost U.S. businesses $398B annually in lost productivity (SHRM & Gallup). Traditional DEI programs often emphasize compliance over career growth, leaving many capable employees stalled or exiting. BreakThrough At Work shifts the focus from liability to leverage, helping professionals build undeniable personal brands while providing organizations with a roadmap to unlock hidden capacity. Launch Timeline & Early ImpactThe mobile app launched in June 2025, with the first full coaching cohort starting September 22, 2025. Early participants report increased recognition, faster promotions, and renewed career confidence—without code-switching or burnout. Cohort applications and the free guide From Invisible to Irresistible are now available at About Us At Spaces LLCUs At Spaces builds tools and programs to help underrecognized professionals thrive across industries. BreakThrough At Work blends behavioral science, workplace equity research, and actionable career coaching to help overlooked talent become undeniable while enabling companies to see, support, and retain them.

Notes to be the obligation solely of Qnity Electronics, Inc. as issuer following consummation of DuPont's intended Spin-Off of its electronics business WILMINGTON, Del., Aug. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — DuPont de Nemours, Inc. (NYSE: DD) ('DuPont') and Qnity Electronics, Inc. ('Qnity') announced today that Qnity priced an offering of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.750% senior secured notes due 2032 (the 'Secured Notes') and $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.250% senior notes due 2033 (the 'Unsecured Notes' and, together with the Secured Notes, the 'Notes' and each, a 'series of Notes') at a price of 100.000% of the principal amount of the Secured Notes and 100.000% of the principal amount of the Unsecured Notes. Each series of Notes is being offered in connection with DuPont's previously announced plan to separate its electronics business through a pro rata distribution of Qnity common stock to stockholders of DuPont (the 'Spin-Off'), as more fully described in Qnity's information statement filed as Exhibit 99.1 to its amended Registration Statement on Form 10 filed by Qnity with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the 'SEC') on August 5, 2025. Upon the consummation of the Spin-Off, the Unsecured Notes will be jointly and severally and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis and the Secured Notes will be jointly and severally and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis by each Qnity subsidiary that is a borrower, or guarantees indebtedness, under Qnity's planned senior secured credit facilities. Upon the consummation of the Spin-Off, the Secured Notes and related guarantees will be secured, subject to permitted liens and certain other exceptions, by first priority liens on substantially the same collateral that secures Qnity's obligations under its planned senior secured credit facilities. The Unsecured Notes and related guarantees will not be secured by any collateral. The offering is expected to close on August 15, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions. The closing of this offering is not conditioned on the closing of the Spin-Off. The gross proceeds of the offering will be held in escrow and released in connection with the completion of the Spin-Off. Qnity intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, together with borrowings under its Senior Secured Credit Facilities (as defined below) and cash on hand, to finance the payment of a cash distribution to DuPont plus the pre-funded interest deposit in connection with the issuance of notes (and any investment returns thereon). The Spin-Off is targeted for completion on November 1, 2025*. If the Spin-Off is not consummated (x) on or prior to the earlier of (i) March 31, 2026 and (ii) the date on which Qnity notifies the escrow agent and the trustee that Qnity has determined the Spin-Off will not be consummated or (y) within two business days of the gross proceeds being released from escrow, then each series of Notes will be subject to a special mandatory redemption. In connection with the Spin-Off, Qnity expects to enter into a credit agreement providing for (a) a five-year revolving credit facility in the aggregate committed amount of $1.25 billion (up to $100 million of such revolving facility will be available for the issuance of letters of credit ) (the 'Senior Secured Revolving Facility'), and (b) a seven-year term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of $2.35 billion (the 'Senior Secured Term Loan Facility' and, together with the Senior Secured Revolving Facility, the 'Senior Secured Credit Facilities'). On or prior to the Spin-Off date, Qnity intends to enter into, implement and document the Senior Secured Credit Facilities pursuant to a credit agreement (the 'Credit Agreement'). As of the date hereof, the Credit Agreement is expected to be entered into (and the initial funding thereunder is expected to occur) substantially concurrently with the release of the proceeds of this offering from escrow. Each series of Notes and the related guarantees were offered in the United States to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 'Securities Act'), and outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. Each series of Notes and the related guarantees have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of Notes in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
