Cosmo Films expands US Operations with new Slitter Rewinder
Reduced customer order wait time from 2–3 months to 10–15 days
CHICAGO, July 31, 2025 /CNW/ -- Cosmo Films Inc. USA, a subsidiary of Cosmo First Limited (Formerly known as Cosmo Films Limited) has announced expansion in North America with the installation of a 120" wide new high-speed Slitter (3000 ft/min). With this new installation, the company aims to meet the budding demand for flexible packaging solutions across North America. The new machine is a strategic investment by Cosmo Films to enhance customer service with faster delivery solutions for its diverse range of films across the US market.
The machine is installed at the Company's Carol Stream Warehouse in Chicago. With this new state-of-the-art equipment, Cosmo Films will now be able to fulfil customer orders within 10–15 days from the order date, thereby helping customers optimise inventory and reduce warehousing costs by providing just-in-time delivery, and gain flexibility in production schedules.
This investment comes at a time when the North American flexible packaging market is projected to grow from USD 84.9 billion in 2025 to USD 123.07 billion by 2034, fuelled by rising demand for lightweight, sustainable, and customisable packaging across food, personal care, and pharmaceutical sectors.
Speaking on the development, Mr. Kulbhushan Malik, Global Business Head, Cosmo Films, said, " We have been growing year over year in the US market, and it continues to be a strategic priority for us. This new investment in the US serves as an extended support platform from India, bringing us closer to customers and optimising our business while creating value for the stakeholders involved through a robust and smarter supply chain."
With latest features, the Slitter is designed to work with a variety of substrates, such as BOPP, CPP, BOPET, and PETG films. It also offers razor-sharp accuracy and high-speed operation (3000 ft/min). This will allow Cosmo Films to provide aesthetically-appealing, eco-friendly, and flexible packaging formats like sachets, pouches, and wraps — all of which are high-demand packaging solutions in North America's rapidly growing food, beverage, and healthcare sectors.
Mr. Sandeep Dutta, President–North America, Cosmo Films, said "Over the years, we have positioned ourselves as trusted partners for US businesses, providing quality products as well as technical support, with the willingness to develop new films to keep up with the ever-changing and challenging end-use requirements. Cosmo Films is one of the unique producers, catering to multiple segments with our wide variety of Barrier Metallized Films as well as Chemical Coated products. The installation reflects our commitment towards addressing the packaging needs in real-time with flexibility and reliability. With this, we will be well-positioned to function as an extended platform of our overseas manufacturing facilities, enabling us to cater to the on-demand, short turn-around time needs of the industry. The quality promise of Cosmo Films will now be available in days, instead of months."
With such ongoing developments and investments aimed at delivering both quality and agility, Cosmo Films continues to strengthen its global customer footprint. Further, the company is steadily positioning itself as a trusted and preferred supplier of high-quality packaging films and a comprehensive solutions provider for a range of packaging needs across North America.

Perpetua Resources Announces Second Quarter 2025 and Recent Highlights
BOISE, Idaho, Aug. 14, 2025 /CNW/ - Perpetua Resources Corp. (Nasdaq: PPTA) (TSX: PPTA) ("Perpetua Resources" or "Perpetua" or the "Company") announced today that its unaudited condensed consolidated financial results for the period ended June 30, 2025 were filed. For details, please see the Company's filings available on EDGAR and SEDAR.

Perpetua Resources is focused on finalizing remaining permits for the Stibnite Gold Project ("Project") to support early works construction expected to start in the fall of 2025, advancing detailed engineering, long lead procurement and execution planning to be full sanction construction ready in the spring of 2026 and finalizing project financing. Second Quarter 2025 and Recent Highlights: Zero lost time incidents or reportable environmental spills. U.S. Army Corps of Engineers ("USACE" or the "Army Corps") issued the Section 404 permit for the Project. Submitted formal application to U.S. EXIM for potential Project debt financing of up to $2.0 billion. Closed $425 million in gross proceeds from equity financing and subsequently additional gross proceeds of $49 million upon full exercise of an underwriter option, for total aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $474 million. Announced plan for comprehensive project financing plan for the Project. Published 2024 Sustainability Report, the Company's twelfth annual sustainability report. The Idaho Board of Environmental Quality issued a final order rejecting challenges by certain petitioners to the air permit to construct issued by the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality for the Project and upholding the permit in all respects. "Perpetua Resources received its final federal permit for the Stibnite Gold Project in the second quarter of 2025, after eight years of rigorous interagency coordination and review," said Jon Cherry, President and CEO of Perpetua Resources. "Following the successful equity offering in June 2025, and with final state permits and authorizations needed to begin construction expected in the fall of 2025, Perpetua is focused on finalizing a potential royalty or stream arrangement with financial assurance guarantees which is expected to be complete this summer, while advancing the US EXIM debt financing." About Perpetua Resources and the Stibnite Gold Project Perpetua Resources Corp., through its wholly owned subsidiaries, is focused on the exploration, site restoration and redevelopment of gold-antimony-silver deposits in the Stibnite-Yellow Pine district of central Idaho that are encompassed by the Stibnite Gold Project. The Stibnite Gold Project is one of the highest-grade, open pit gold deposits in the United States and is designed to apply a modern, responsible mining approach to restore an abandoned mine site and produce both gold and the only mined source of antimony in the United States. Antimony trisulfide from Stibnite is the only known domestic reserves of antimony that can meet U.S. defense needs for many small arms, munitions, and missile types. Forward-Looking Information Investors should be aware that the U.S. EXIM Letter of Interest ("LOI") is non-binding and conditional, and does not represent a financing commitment. A funding commitment, if any, is conditional upon successfully completing the due diligence and underwriting process, which may not be completed on the expected timeline, or at all. If the Company's application is approved, there can be no assurance that the U.S. EXIM financing will be for the full amount indicated in the LOI or the increased amount requested in the application, or that the approved U.S. EXIM financing will be sufficient for the Company to commence construction of the Project. Further, release of funding under any such commitment would be subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and covenants by the Company. Investors should be aware that the Company has not entered into any definitive agreement with respect to a royalty, streaming or guarantee and may not be able to enter into such agreement on the anticipated terms and timeline, or at all. In addition, the outcomes from such agreement, when entered into, may not be sufficient to satisfy the aggregate obligations of the Company to provide construction phase financial assurance under applicable federal and state law prior to commencing construction.

CPP Investments Net Assets Total $731.7 Billion at First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Français
All figures in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted Highlights: Net assets increase by $17.3 billion 10-year net return of 8.4% Added $500 billion in cumulative net income since inception TORONTO, Aug. 14, 2025 /CNW/ - Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP Investments) ended its first quarter of fiscal 2026 on June 30, 2025, with net assets of $731.7 billion, compared to $714.4 billion at the end of the previous quarter. The $17.3 billion increase in net assets for the quarter consisted of $7.5 billion in net income and $9.8 billion in net transfers from the Canada Pension Plan (CPP). CPP Investments routinely receives more CPP contributions than required to pay benefits during the first part of the calendar year, partially offset by benefit payments exceeding contributions in the final months of the year. The Fund, composed of the base CPP and additional CPP accounts, generated a 10-year annualized net return of 8.4%. For the quarter, the Fund's net return was 1.0%. Since CPP Investments first started investing the Fund in 1999, and including the first quarter of fiscal 2026, it has contributed $499.6 billion in cumulative net income. "Shifting trade dynamics and broader geopolitical uncertainty fueled renewed volatility in global markets during the first quarter of our fiscal year," said John Graham, President & CEO. "Through these events, the Fund remained resilient, supported by our diversified investment strategy, including broad geographic exposure that helps offset shifts in the employment, wage and demographic trends that determine CPP contributions. We remain focused on creating long-term value for the benefit of CPP contributors and beneficiaries." The Fund delivered positive results in the first quarter, despite considerable market volatility. While markets declined early in the period, public equities rebounded by quarter end, contributing to overall Fund performance. Energy assets and strong results from our external manager programs also contributed positively to returns. These gains were largely offset by the weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to the Canadian dollar amid tariff-related uncertainty. While foreign exchange fluctuations may impact returns in the short term, maintaining a well-diversified global currency composition helps to mitigate overall return volatility over longer time horizons. Performance of the Base and Additional CPP Accounts The base CPP account ended its first quarter of fiscal 2026 on June 30, 2025, with net assets of $668.0 billion, compared to $655.8 billion at the end of the previous quarter. The $12.2 billion increase in net assets consisted of $7.3 billion in net income and $4.9 billion in net transfers from the base CPP. The base CPP account's net return for the quarter was 1.1% and the 10-year annualized net return was 8.5%. The additional CPP account ended its first quarter of fiscal 2026 on June 30, 2025, with net assets of $63.7 billion, compared to $58.6 billion at the end of the previous quarter. The $5.1 billion increase in assets consisted of $0.2 billion in net income and $4.9 billion in net transfers from the additional CPP. The additional CPP account's net return for the quarter was 0.2% and the annualized net return since inception was 5.9%. The additional CPP was designed with a different legislative funding profile and contribution rate compared to the base CPP. Given the differences in its design, the additional CPP has had a different market risk target and investment profile since its inception in 2019. As a result of these differences, we expect the performance of the additional CPP to generally differ from that of the base CPP. Furthermore, due to the differences in its net contribution profile, the additional CPP account's assets are also expected to grow at a much faster rate than those in the base CPP account. 1 After CPP Investments expenses. Long-Term Financial Sustainability Every three years, the Office of the Chief Actuary of Canada, an independent federal body that provides checks and balances on the future costs of the CPP, evaluates the financial sustainability of the CPP over a long period. In the most recent triennial review published in December 2022, the Chief Actuary reaffirmed that, as at December 31, 2021, both the base and additional CPP continue to be sustainable over the long term at the legislated contribution rates. The Chief Actuary's projections are based on the assumption that, over the 75 years following 2021, the base CPP account will earn an average annual rate of return of 3.69% above the rate of Canadian consumer price inflation. The corresponding assumption is that the additional CPP account will earn an average annual real rate of return of 3.27%. 1 After CPP Investments expenses. 2 The real return is the return after the impact of inflation, defined as the Canadian Consumer Price Index, is taken into account. CPP Investments continues to build a portfolio designed to achieve a maximum rate of return without undue risk of loss, while considering the factors that may affect the funding of the CPP and its ability to meet its financial obligations on any given day. The CPP is designed to serve today's contributors and beneficiaries while looking ahead to future decades and across multiple generations. Accordingly, long-term results are a more appropriate measure of CPP Investments' performance and plan sustainability.
