PepperBall® Announces Exclusive Multi-Year Partnership with Marshfield Drones™ to Implement AIMbot™ and SWATbot™ Robotic Platforms

Lake Forest, IL July 03, 2025 --( PR.com )-- PepperBall®, a widely adopted distance-based, non-lethal system, today announced an exclusive multi-year partnership with Marshfield Drones™, a Wisconsin-based robotics innovator specializing in ground tactical platforms. Under the agreement, Marshfield Drones will collaborate with PepperBall, which will brand, integrate, and market the technology to law-enforcement, corrections, and military agencies worldwide. The vehicles will launch at the National Sheriffs Association Conference, Fort Lauderdale, FL, June 23-25, 2025, Booth 1716.
'Robotics extends the PepperBall core promise of distance and safety,' said Bob Plaschke, CEO of PepperBall. 'AIMbot and SWATbot let officers deploy select launchers, BLAST, or BURST payloads from cover, giving them vital options without stepping into harm's way.'
Nick Wayerski, President of Marshfield Drones, added, 'Our robots were built to carry mission-critical payloads into places people shouldn't go. Partnering exclusively with PepperBall—a company trusted by more than 10,000 agencies—means those platforms provide value with a proven, non-lethal capability on day one.'
New Robotic Platforms
PepperBall AIMbot™ – A mid-sized, rugged robot that arrives as a turnkey kit (robot, goggles, controller, launcher.) When outfitted with an FTC or TAC-SA launcher, it gives operators a heads-up display to place a reticle on target and remotely deploy PepperBall projectiles with precision.
PepperBall SWATbot™ – A compact, low-profile robot designed for confined or barricaded spaces. Remotely guided by the operator, the SWATbot carries a BLAST™ or BURST™ device, maneuvers through doorways or under obstacles, and deploys an area-saturation irritant exactly where it is needed. Kit includes robot, goggles, and controller.
PepperBall-branded units will begin factory acceptance in the coming weeks, with agency demonstrations already conducted for numerous federal agencies. Commercial availability is slated for late 2025 through the PepperBall global law-enforcement distribution network.

elf Beauty (ELF) Jumps 9.7% as Analyst Grows More Bullish Despite Product Price Increase

We recently published . e.l.f. Beauty, Inc. (NYSE:ELF) is one of the best-performing stocks on Monday. e.l.f Beauty saw its share prices jump by 9.73 percent on Monday to finish at $111.67 apiece as investors took heart from an investment firm's bullish rating and price target upgrade for its stock. In a market note, Morgan Stanley upgraded e.l.f. Beauty, Inc. (NYSE:ELF) to 'overweight' from 'equal weight' previously, alongside a higher price target of $134 versus $114 prior. The new price suggested a 20-percent upside potential from its latest closing price. Last August 1, e.l.f. Beauty, Inc. (NYSE:ELF) slapped a 14-percent price hike on its products, saying that it would assess how consumers would respond. 'It will take a couple of weeks for that to fully roll out within retail. And so that is something that we're watching for,' e.l.f. Beauty, Inc. (NYSE:ELF) CFO Mandy Fields has said. However, Morgan Stanley posted a more optimistic outlook, saying that consumers typically do not tend to be especially sensitive to price increases 'given the relative importance of beauty products to consumers.' Copyright: citalliance / 123RF Stock Photo Additionally, it underscored that e.l.f. Beauty, Inc.'s (NYSE:ELF) products are relatively cheaper compared with those from its counterparts, and there is less opportunity for consumers to find more affordable substitutes.

If You'd Invested $10,000 in Navitas Semiconductor Stock 2 Years Ago, Here's How Much You'd Have Today

Key Points Its partnership with Nvidia is proof of the long-term potential for silicon carbide and gallium nitride chips. Investors are looking to 2027 and the launch of new data centers to spur Navitas' growth. 10 stocks we like better than Navitas Semiconductor › If you're wondering how much you'd have if you'd invested $10,000 in Navitas Semiconductor (NASDAQ: NVTS) stock two years ago -- and I'm sure you are since you're reading this -- the answer is about $7,500 as I write this on Aug. 10. While that might surprise investors in Navitas Semiconductor who've only been watching it in 2025, as it's up 85% so far this year, it does highlight some points about investing in growth stocks. Why Navitas Semiconductor's stock has gone up so much in 2025 The simple reason for this year's jump comes down to the mid-May announcement of a partnership with Nvidia to develop data center power architecture for the next generation of data centers, due to launch in 2027. The new more efficient, reliable, and lower-maintenance cost 800 V data centers need silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) chips (Navitas' specialty) in the power conversion process in the new data centers. Considerations for growth investors The fact that the stock is down over the last couple of years indicates that patience is key when investing in growth stocks, and it pays to avoid getting caught up in euphoria. For example, in the summer of 2023, Navitas offered 11.5 million shares at a price of $8, which the market eagerly took up. Unfortunately, some of its key end markets, like electric vehicles and consumer electronics (notably mobile phones), slowed markedly, and the stock declined. However, it makes sense to buy into weakness if you have data-backed belief in the long-term growth prospects of a company. This has happened as investors have jumped back into Navitas on the Nvidia news. Do the experts think Navitas Semiconductor is a buy right now?

Fed's policy rate should stay on hold for now, Schmid says

(Reuters) -The U.S. central bank should not take tariffs' muted effect on inflation so far as an opportunity to cut interest rates, but rather as a sign that monetary policy is "appropriately calibrated," Kansas City Federal Reserve President Jeffrey Schmid said on Tuesday, in remarks that contrast with the increasingly dovish tone of some of his colleagues. "With the economy still showing momentum, growing business optimism, and inflation still stuck above our objective, retaining a modestly restrictive monetary policy stance remains appropriate for the time being," Schmid said in remarks prepared for delivery to an economic development conference in Oklahoma. "While increased tariffs seem to be having a limited effect on inflation, I view this as a rationale for keeping policy on hold rather than an opportunity to ease the stance of policy." Schmid said his "patient approach" to changing the policy rate, currently in the 4.25%-4.50% range, shouldn't be seen as a "wait and see" approach because he does not think that it will be clear in the next few months whether tariffs are pushing up on prices temporarily or persistently. Rather, he said, he feels the current policy rate is not very far above the neutral rate, where activity is neither stimulated nor restrained, and the labor market is still looking solid despite a sharp drop in job growth in recent months. And while the cooling labor market is keeping a lid on the pass-through of tariffs into inflation, boosting demand aggressively could raise the risk of an outsized increase in price pressures, Schmid said. "In my view, and in discussion with my contacts, growth remains solid, inflation remains too high, and therefore policy should remain modestly restrictive," he said. "That said, as I stated earlier, inflation is determined by the balance of supply and demand, and if I see indications that demand growth isweakening significantly, I will adjust my views accordingly." 擷取數據時發生錯誤 登入存取你的投資組合 擷取數據時發生錯誤 擷取數據時發生錯誤 擷取數據時發生錯誤 擷取數據時發生錯誤
