LINEAGE INVESTOR ALERT: Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP Files Class Action Lawsuit Against Lineage, Inc. and Announces Opportunity for Investors with Substantial Losses to Lead the Lineage Class Action Lawsuit

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP announces that purchasers of Lineage, Inc. (NASDAQ: LINE) common stock in or traceable to the registration statement used in connection with Lineage's July 2024 initial public offering (the 'IPO'), have until September 30, 2025 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff of the Lineage class action lawsuit. Captioned City of St. Clair Shores Police and Fire Retirement System v. Lineage, Inc., No. 25-cv-12383 (E.D. Mich.), the Lineage class action lawsuit charges Lineage and certain of its top executives, directors, IPO underwriters, and IPO sponsor with violations of the Securities Act of 1933. If you suffered substantial losses and wish to serve as lead plaintiff of the Lineage class action lawsuit, please provide your information here: CASE ALLEGATIONS: Lineage is a Maryland REIT focused on temperature-controlled cold-storage facilities. In the July 2024 IPO, Lineage sold over 65 million shares of Lineage common stock to investors at $78 per share, raising more than $5 billion in gross offering proceeds. The Lineage class action lawsuit alleges that the registration statement was false and/or misleading and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Lineage was then experiencing sustained weakening in customer demand, as additional cold-storage supply had come on line, Lineage's customers destocked a glut of excessive inventory built up during the COVID-19 pandemic, and Lineage's customers shifted to maintaining leaner cold-storage inventories on a go-forward basis in response to changed consumer trends; (ii) Lineage had implemented price increases in the lead-up to the IPO that could not be sustained in light of the weakening demand environment facing Lineage; (iii) Lineage was unable to effectively counteract the adverse trends listed above through the use of minimum storage guarantees or as a result of operational efficiencies, technological improvements, or its purported competitive advantages; (iv) as a result, rather than enjoying stable revenue growth, high occupancy rates, and steady rent escalation as represented in the registration statement, Lineage was in fact suffering from stagnant or falling revenue, occupancy rates, and rent prices; and (v) consequently, Lineage's financial results, business operations, and prospects were materially impaired. Since the IPO, the price of Lineage stock has fallen to lows near $40 per share. The price of Lineage stock has remained substantially below the IPO price at the time of the filing of the complaint. The plaintiff is represented by Robbins Geller, which has extensive experience in prosecuting investor class actions including actions involving financial fraud. You can view a copy of the complaint by clicking here. THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased Lineage common stock in or traceable to the registration statement issued in connection with Lineage's IPO to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Lineage class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the Lineage class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the Lineage class action lawsuit. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the Lineage class action lawsuit.

Eurobank Ergasias Services And Holdings SA (EGFEF) Q2 2025 Earnings Call Highlights: Strong ...

Release Date: July 31, 2025 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. Positive Points Eurobank Ergasias Services And Holdings SA (EGFEF) reported a robust financial performance in the first half of 2025, achieving an adjusted net profit of 711 million and a return on tangible book value of 16.6%. Net interest income rose 12% year on year, with a strong performance in corporate provision income, which was up by 7% year on year to over 1 billion. Asset quality remained resilient, with the non-performing exposure (NPE) ratio decreasing to 2.8% and coverage exceeding 90%. Loan growth continued strongly with a quarterly net increase of 1 billion, leading to an upward revision of the full-year loan growth target from 3.5 billion to 4 billion. The total capital ratio was enhanced to almost 20% following the issuance of additional tier 1 (AT1) capital, supporting the bank's strong capital position. Negative Points The decline in net interest income is expected to continue due to the trajectory of interest rates, with a lower NII figure anticipated in the second half of the year. Operating costs increased by 6% on a like-for-like basis, with expenses in Greece rising by 6.7% due to higher IT CapEx and staff remuneration. The cost to income ratio in Bulgaria, despite improvements, still reflects the challenges of a declining interest rate environment. The consolidation of CNP in Cyprus resulted in a 20 basis points impact on capital, indicating potential challenges in managing capital deployment. The bank's exposure to CHF loans remains a concern, although it has been addressed through countercyclical provisioning policies. Q & A Highlights Warning! GuruFocus has detected 6 Warning Sign with EGFEF. Q: How do you foresee the trajectory of Net Interest Income (NII) given the recent loan growth and rate cuts? A: Unidentified_3: We reaffirm our initial target of 2.5 billion NII, assuming the ECB terminal rate reaches 1.5%. The expected average DFR for the year is 35 basis points lower than initially expected. The third quarter NII will be lower than the second due to lower base rates, but we maintain our 2.5 billion NII guidance due to higher loan deposits and bond volumes. Q: What are your plans for capital deployment, especially after the CNP acquisition and 81 issuance? A: Unidentified_2: We are interested in non-organic growth in banking, insurance, and asset management in Greece, Bulgaria, and Cyprus. While there are no advanced discussions currently, we aim to keep excess capital for potential inorganic growth opportunities. We are committed to a payout ratio of at least 50%, which may be higher due to strong loan growth and capital reserves. Q: Can you provide guidance on the NII impact from Bulgaria's reserve requirements dropping with EUR accession? A: Unidentified_2: We expect about 1 billion of liquidity to be released, boosting NII from 2026 onwards. The EUR adoption will positively impact the economy and banking sector, with potential for further consolidation. Q: What are the risks to maintaining the current Return on Tangible Equity (ROTE) in the second half of the year? A: Unidentified_3: We expect a lower NII due to interest rate trajectories, with a potential 50 basis points decrease. However, we anticipate exceeding the 15% ROTE target, with no significant variations expected in the second half. Q: How does the potential ECB rate cut impact your NII guidance? A: Unidentified_3: If rates remain at 2%, we expect a positive NII impact of 10-11 million. Our guidance assumes a rate cut in October and December, but if rates stay unchanged, there could be an upside to our NII guidance. Q: Can you clarify the impact of CHF loans on your cost of risk guidance? A: Unidentified_2: We have increased provision overlays across all loan segments, including CHF loans. We do not expect changes to the 60 basis points cost of risk guidance for 2025. Q: What are the main changes in your guidance following the recent results? A: Unidentified_2: We updated our loan growth target from 3.5 billion to 4 billion for 2025. We see upside potential in fee income and expect a return on tangible book value higher than the initial 15% target. Q: How should we think about NII growth into 2026? A: Unidentified_3: We will revisit this when preparing our budget at the end of the year. Current drivers include loan and deposit volumes and sensitivity to interest rates. A detailed business plan for 2026 will be provided in March 2026. For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript.
