ExtendMax Becomes First Vietnamese Company to Win the Asia-Pacific People's Choice Stevie Awards
This major milestone reflects ExtendMax Vietnam Company Limited's decade-long journey building trust through regulatory expertise and seamless project execution for multinational clients entering or operating in Vietnam.
"We're honored to represent Vietnam on a global stage," said Tran Thanh Phuong, Founder and CEO of ExtendMax. "This award belongs to our customers, partners, and team – people who've trusted us to solve complex compliance challenges and deliver critical business outcomes."
ExtendMax's recognition follows a growing list of achievements, including Gold and Silver Stevie Awards in innovation categories, further cementing Mr. Phuong's status as a leading legal and compliance expert in Vietnam's fast-evolving tech and import landscape.
One of ExtendMax's hallmark achievements underscoring its capabilities is the project supporting LEGO in importing the IT systems for LEGO's largest global factory in Vietnam, with a total investment of approximately USD 1.3 billion.
From the outset, this project faced numerous regulatory challenges related to importing IT equipment that uses encryption technology and network security systems. As both a consulting firm and a trusted provider of Importer of Record (IOR) services in Vietnam, ExtendMax provided end-to-end advisory services, crafted detailed plans, applied for encryption licenses, and prepared all necessary procedures to ensure the project stayed on schedule without disruption.
Thanks to its comprehensive solutions and extensive experience handling large-scale projects, ExtendMax enabled LEGO to smoothly import tens of millions of dollars' worth of IT equipment, helping ensure the factory's construction and operations progressed as planned.
"The LEGO project is a testament to the values of commitment and customer-centricity that ExtendMax upholds. We don't just provide consulting; we stand side by side with our clients, overcoming every obstacle, executing every procedure, and taking responsibility for the final outcomes. Our clients' success is our success – and that is the value we cherish most," Mr. Tran Thanh Phuong added.
According to CEO Tran Thanh Phuong, this People's Choice Stevie Award is not only a recognition of his personal efforts or those of the leadership team – it is a proud achievement of the entire ExtendMax collective, whose members have remained steadfast in their mission to accompany and support clients in successfully completing every project.
He also extended his heartfelt gratitude to the customers, partners, and community who took the time to vote, share, and support ExtendMax, helping the company make its mark across the region:
"The Stevie Awards are among the world's most prestigious business awards. This year, the Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards received over 1,000 nominations from 29 markets, but only eight People's Choice Stevie Awards were presented. ExtendMax is honored and proud to be the only Vietnamese company to win this special category. I believe this award belongs to all of us – the ExtendMax team, our customers, partners, and friends – those who have joined me in a nearly decade-long journey of continuous innovation, relentless effort, and the ambition to reach the global stage."
Looking ahead, Mr. Phuong shared that ExtendMax remains committed to its strategic focus on developing professional compliance certification consulting services and Importer of Record solutions, enhancing internal capabilities, embracing digital transformation, and expanding international partnerships.
"We will not stop at this award. This is the motivation for ExtendMax to continue improving service quality, pursuing innovative solutions, and advancing transparent, sustainable development that brings value to the business community in Vietnam and the broader region," Mr. Tran Thanh Phuong emphasized.

Alamos Gold Files $500 Million Shelf Prospectus to Preserve Financial Flexibility
Alamos Gold Inc. (NYSE:AGI) is one of the best cheap growth stocks to buy according to analysts. On August 8, 2025, Alamos Gold filed a base shelf prospectus enabling the company to issue up to US $500 million in securities, including common shares, debt instruments, warrants, and subscription receipts, over the next 25 months. The filing specifically states that there are no current plans to issue securities, positioning the move purely as a precaution to maintain financial flexibility, and it replaces a previous prospectus that expired in June 2025. Alamos Gold Inc. is a Canadian-based intermediate gold producer. Its operations span the Island Gold District and Young‑Davidson mine in Ontario, as well as the Mulatos District in Mexico. The company emphasizes low-cost, long-life assets, with a development pipeline that includes the Phase 3+ expansion at Island Gold and the Lynn Lake project in Manitoba. While we acknowledge the potential of AGI as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.

Barrick Eyes Exit from Ivory Coast's Tongon Mine in $500 Million Deal with China's Zijin
Barrick Mining Corporation (NYSE:B) is one of the best cheap growth stocks to buy according to analysts. On July 23, 2025, reports emerged that China's Zijin Mining is in advanced talks to acquire Barrick's Tongon gold mine in Ivory Coast for up to $500 million. The deal, still subject to regulatory approval, comes as Barrick continues to streamline its portfolio by shedding lower-margin, shorter-life assets. Tongon, which began production in 2010, has seen its reserves decline in recent years and is projected to cease operations by 2027 without major reinvestment. Selling the mine would free up capital for Barrick to pursue higher-return opportunities, particularly in copper and long-life gold projects. The potential sale reflects Barrick's broader strategy of focusing on assets with strong margins and long production horizons. Management has signaled increased emphasis on copper, which now accounts for roughly one-fifth of the company's output, with a target of raising that share to 30 percent by 2029. Divesting from smaller, aging mines like Tongon aligns with this shift, enabling Barrick to redeploy resources toward growth-oriented ventures in regions such as Latin America, North America, and Central Asia. Barrick Mining Corporation (NYSE:B) is a global leader in gold and copper production, with operations spanning North and South America, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. Founded in 1983, the company is headquartered in Toronto, Canada. While we acknowledge the potential of B as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.

Asics Corp. raised full-year guidance and a projection for operating profit ahead of plan following a strong second quarter report. Results for the three months ended June 30 were helped strong strong performance in its performance running, sportstyle and Onitsuka Tiger categories. Asics' core performance sports category also showed gains in the quarter. Results were more than enough for the Japanese sportswear company to raise its operating profit projection for the year to 136 billion yen, one year ahead of its initial expectation as stated in its Mid-Term Plan 2026. The prior estimate for Fiscal Year 2025 was 120 billion yen back in February. It guided net sales to 800.0 billion yen for the year, up from 780.0 billion yen.

U.S. President Donald Trump said last month that it had the parameters for a trade deal with Japan that set tariffs for Japanese imports to America at 15 percent, down from a proposed 25 percent. The final terms of the deal are still being negotiated. Even with the additional tariffs, the company raised upward its full-year operating profit guidance for the North America business to 15.0 billion yen from 11.5 billion yen. Net sales were also guided upward to 145 billion yen from February's forecast of 136 billion yen. Data for Asics North America — the region that includes the U.S., Canada and Mexico — showed a quarterly profit for the eighth time in the past nine quarters, driven by success of the wholesale channel. U.S. wholesale sales rose nearly 40 percent from year-ago levels. The running and sportstyle businesses also posted double-digit increases from year-ago levels. On a local currency basis, the U.S. and Mexico produced double-digit growth, while Canada reach a high single-digit growth year-to date. Separately, in retail, Asics' Meatpacking store posted a net sales growth of 15.5 percent in the quarter, aided by implementation of omnichannel initiatives to bolster the in-store assortment mix. 'The consistent demand for Asics footwear products across the region speaks to our relentless pursuit of developing technically advanced performance running products while remaining very aware of broader cultural and lifestyle trends to support the sportstyle category,' Koichiro Kodama, president and CEO of Asics North America, said. He said both the Megablast and Sonicblast performance running models, part of the company's Blast footwear series, will have expanded offerings for consumers this fall. The overall Asics operation ended the second quarter with earnings that rose 41.8 percent to 22.0 billion yen, up from 15.5 billion yen a year ago. Net sales were up 15.7 percent to 194.4 billion yen from 168.0 billion yen. By category, running net sales rose 4.8 percent to 86.9 billion yen for the quarter. The category was led by Novablast 5, which showed strong sales worldwide. Asics has also been actively introducing new products, taking advantage of momentum from the upcoming World Athletics Championships Tokyo 25 slated for next month. In core performance, net sales were up 8.2 percent to 18.6 billion yen. The category was driven by sales for shoes such as the DS Light X-Fly 6, a soccer spike that provides a barefoot feel with its SilkyWrap construction, as well as footwear for volleyball and all racquet sports. The sportstyle unit posted a 43 percent jump in net sales to 32.1 billion yen, driven by strong performance of Vintage Tech and sales of Gel-NYC from the Modern silo and Kinetic Fluent from Vis-Tech. The category also celebrated the 10-year anniversary of its Gel-Quantum franchise. The Onitsuka Tiger business posted a 45.2 percent jump in net sales to 37.5 billion yen. Its Tiger loafer features a distinctive silhouette with a voluminous toe. Net sales were robust in Japan to inbound tourists and in the Europe and Greater China regions. An Onitsuka Tiger store opened in Covent Garden, London, in May, and on the Champs-Élysées, Paris, in July. Asics said the Onitsuka Tiger will participate in Milan Fashion Week in September. Earlier this year saw the Sneaker Politics x Asics 'Just Say No' release, while earlier this month Asics released its new Gel-Sekiran sneaker in the U.S. for the first time, with JD Sports as an exclusive partner for the launch. And separately last month, Asics America moved its North American head office to 179 Lincoln Street in Boston's Leather District. The new five-story, 221,474-square-foot building, which is LEED Silver-certified, spans an entire city block and once was home to a shoe factory.
