Trump's nominee to oversee jobs, inflation data faces shower of criticism
Part of an email to Bureau of Labor Statistics employees from William Wiatrowski, obtained by The Associated Press, is photographed Tuesday, Aug. 12, 2025. (AP Photo/Jon Elswick) WASHINGTON — The director of the agency that produces the nation's jobs and inflation data is typically a mild-mannered technocrat, often with extensive experience in statistical agencies, with little public profile. But like so much in U.S. President Donald Trump's second administration, this time is different. Trump has selected E.J. Antoni, chief economist at the conservative Heritage Foundation, to be the next commissioner at the Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics. Antoni's nomination was quickly met with a cascade of criticism from other economists, from across the political spectrum. His selection threatens to bring a new level of politicization to what for decades has been a nonpartisan agency widely accepted as a producer of reliable measures of the nation's economic health. While many former U.S. Labor Department officials say it it unlikely Antoni will be able to distort or alter the data, particularly in the short run, he could change the currently dry-as-dust way it is presented. Antoni was nominated by Trump after the BLS released a jobs report Aug. 1 that showed that hiring had weakened in July and was much lower in May and June than the agency had previously reported. Trump, without evidence, charged that the data had been 'rigged' for political reasons and fired the then-BLS chair, Erika McEntarfer, much to the dismay of many within the agency. Antoni has been a vocal critic of the government's jobs data in frequent appearances on podcasts and cable TV. His partisan commentary is unusual for someone who may end up leading the BLS. For instance, on Aug. 4 — a week before he was nominated — Antoni said in an interview on Fox News Digital that the Labor Department should stop publishing the monthly jobs reports until its data collection processes improve, and rely on quarterly data based on actual employment filings with state unemployment offices. The monthly employment reports are probably the closest-watched economic data on Wall Street, and can frequently cause swings in stock prices. When asked at Tuesday's White House briefing whether the jobs report would continue to be released, press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the administration hoped it would be. Trump news White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt speaks during a briefing at the White House, Tuesday, June 3, 2025, in Washington. (AP Photo/Evan Vucci) 'I believe that is the plan and that's the hope,' Leavitt said. Leavitt also defended Antoni's nomination, calling him an 'economic expert' who has testified before Congress and adding that, 'the president trusts him to lead this important department.' Yet Antoni's TV and podcast appearances have created more of a portrait of a conservative ideologue, instead of a careful economist who considers tradeoffs and prioritizes getting the math correct. 'There's just nothing in his writing or his resume to suggest that he's qualified for the position, besides that he is always manipulating the data to favor Trump in some way,' said Brian Albrecht, chief economist at the International Center for Law and Economics. Antoni wrongly claimed in the last year of Biden's presidency that the economy had been in recession since 2022; called on the entire U.S. Federal Reserve board to be fired for not earning a profit on its Treasury securities holdings; and posted a chart on social media that conflated timelines to suggest inflation was headed to 15 per cent. His argument that the U.S. was in a recession rested on a vastly exaggerated measure of housing inflation, based on newly-purchased home prices, to artificially make the nation's gross domestic product appear smaller than it was. 'This is actually maybe the worst Antoni content I've seen yet,' Alan Cole of the center-right Tax Foundation said on social media, referring to his recession claim. On a 2024 podcast, Antoni wanted to sunset Social Security payments for workers paying into the system, saying that 'you'll need a generation of people who pay Social Security taxes but never actually receive any of those benefits.' As head of the BLS, Antoni would oversee the release of the consumer price index by which Social Security payments are adjusted for inflation. Many economists share, to some degree, Antoni's concerns that the government's jobs data has flaws and is threatened by trends such as declining response rates to its surveys. The drop has made the jobs figures more volatile, though not necessarily less accurate over time. 'The stock market moves clearly based on these job numbers, and so people with skin in the game think it's telling them something about the future of their investments,' Albrecht said. 'Could it be improved? Absolutely.' Katharine Abraham, an economist at the University of Maryland who was BLS Commissioner under former U.S. President Bill Clinton, said updating the jobs report's methods would require at least some initial investment. The government could use more modern data sources, she said, such as figures from payroll processing companies, and fill in gaps with surveys. 'There's an inconsistency between saying you want higher response rates and you want to spend less money,' she said, referring to the administration's proposals to cut BLS funding. Still, Abraham and other former BLS commissioners don't think Antoni, if confirmed, would be able to alter the figures. He could push for changes in the monthly press release and seek to portray the numbers in a more positive light. William Beach, who was appointed BLS commissioner by Trump in his first term and also served under Biden, said he is confident that BLS procedures are strong enough to prevent political meddling. He said he didn't see the figures himself until two days before publication when he served as commissioner. 'The commissioner does not affect the numbers,'' Beach said. 'They don't collect the data. They don't massage the data. They don't organize it.' Regarding the odds of rigging the numbers, Beach said, 'I wouldn't put it at complete zero, but I'd put it pretty close to zero.'' It took about six months after McEntarfer was nominated in July 2023 for her to be approved. Antoni will likely face stiff opposition from Democrats, but that may not be enough to derail his appointment. U.S. Sen. Patty Murray, a senior Democrat from Washington, on Tuesday slammed Antoni as 'an unqualified right-wing extremist' and demanded that the GOP chairman of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, U.S. Sen. Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, hold a confirmation hearing for him. ___ Associated Press Staff Writers Paul Wiseman and Stephen Groves contributed to this story.

Anaergia Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Anaergia Inc. ('Anaergia', the 'Company', 'us', or 'our') (TSX: ANRG) (OTCQX: ANRGF), a company that offers integrated waste-to-value solutions to reduce greenhouse gases by cost-effectively turning organic waste into renewable natural gas ('RNG'), fertilizer, and water, released its financial results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 ('Q2 2025'), and the related management's discussion and analysis ('MD&A') for the period. All financial results are reported in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated. Highlights and Management Commentary Anaergia's financial results for the second quarter of 2025 reflect the ongoing strategic transition in its business model. The Company's shift to a capital-light strategy was the primary driver behind our strong quarterly results led by significantly higher revenue, higher gross profit margin, and an increase in Revenue Backlog. Anaergia is uniquely positioned to benefit from the growing demand for sustainable waste solutions, underpinned by a robust market, and regulatory and environmental tailwinds. The Company provides complete, integrated resource recovery solutions globally. Anaergia's products and services respond to regulatory and customer demand for sustainable waste management services that are superior to landfills and composting while producing carbon negative fuel, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Anaergia is focused on providing cost effective and sustainable solutions that leverage our experience with project development, execution and our network of owned infrastructure. "Reflecting on my first year as CEO at Anaergia, I am excited to highlight the transformative progress we've made. We have strategically redefined Anaergia as a leading technology company in the RNG sector, delivering complete solutions though our capital sales business, and we are well positioned to capture expanding opportunities. Our second-quarter financial results demonstrate significant advancements enabled by our transition to a capital-light business model, clearly showcasing Anaergia's positive trajectory," stated Assaf Onn, Chief Executive Officer of Anaergia. "Additionally, our Revenue Backlog surged to $244 million at the end of the quarter, increasing from $200 million in the previous quarter and $104 million at the start of the year. This growing backlog, along with $43.8 million in new contracts announced since the end of the second quarter, enhances our visibility and optimism for the future. We are enthusiastic about the ongoing transition and remain confident that the most promising developments are yet to come," added Mr. Onn. Financial Results for Q2 2025 Financial highlights: Revenue increased by 36.8%, or $8.7 million, to $32.3 million in Q2 2025, as compared to Q2 2024. Revenue increased primarily due to higher revenue from Capital Sales, most significantly in Italy and North America. Gross profit margin percentage increased to 32.5% in Q2 2025 from 17.6% in Q2 2024, or a 14.9 increase in percentage points. This is attributable to higher margins from all three segments, Capital Sales, Build-Own-Operate ('BOO'), and Operation Maintenance Services ('O&M'). Adjusted EBITDA 1 loss in Q2 2025 of $2.2 million improved by 72.1%, from an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $8.0 million reported in Q2 2024. This positive variance reflects a substantial improvement in our results from operations which was driven by the increases in revenue and in gross profit.

These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. We use non-IFRS measures to provide investors with supplemental measures. Management also uses non-IFRS measures internally in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, prepare annual operating budgets and assess our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements. Management believes these non-IFRS measures and industry metrics are important supplemental measures of operating performance because they eliminate items that have less bearing on operating performance and highlight trends in the core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS financial measures. Management believes such measures allow for assessment of our operating performance and financial condition on a basis that is more consistent and comparable between reporting periods. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of public companies. Definitions of non-IFRS measures and industry metrics used in this press release are provided below. ' Adjusted EBITDA ' is defined as net earnings before finance costs, taxes and depreciation and amortization adjusted for our normalized proportionate interest in our Build-Own-Operate assets and one-time or non-recurring items, stock-based compensation expense, asset impairment charges and write downs, gains and losses for equity-accounted investees, gain or loss on equity method adjustment, significant one-time provisions, foreign exchange gains or losses, restructuring costs, Enterprise Resource Planning ('ERP') customization and configuration costs, litigation and other claims settlements, gains and losses resulting from changes in certain balance sheet valuations (such as derivatives and warrants) and acquisition costs. ' EBITDA ' is defined as net income before finance costs, taxes and depreciation and amortization. ' Revenue Backlog ' is defined as the balance of unrecognized, undiscounted, consolidated revenues from signed contracts in our Capital Sales and O&M Services segments. For our Capital Sales contracts, we have modeled only projects that have been contracted. For our O&M Services segment, while most of our in-hand contracts are 5-15 years in tenure, we have conservatively modeled for only 3 years of contracted revenue. See 'Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures' below for a reconciliation of the foregoing non-IFRS measures to their most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with IFRS. Conference Call and Webcast Details A conference call to review the Company's financial results will take place at 9:00 a.m. (EDT) on Wednesday August 13, 2025. It will be hosted by management of Anaergia. An accompanying slide presentation will be posted to the Investor Relations section of the Company's website shortly before the call. To listen to the webcast live: The webcast will be archived and available in the Investor Relations section of our website following the call.
