Canadian North Resources Inc. Reports Operational and Financial Results for the First Quarter Ended March 31, 2025
Highlights:
TORONTO, May 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Canadian North Resources Inc. ('Canadian North' or the 'Company') (TSXV: CNRI; OTCQX: CNRSF; FSE: EO0 (E-O-zero)) is pleased to report its operational and financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.
Dr. Kaihui Yang, President and CEO of the Company, commented: 'In the first quarter, we commenced more extensive bio-leaching tests for the Ferguson Lake Project. These new tests are based on the exceptional results of the bio-leaching amenability tests completed in 2024, which indicate that both the massive sulphides and the rougher sulphide tail are amenable to bio-leaching with very high extraction rates for nickel (97.8-98.9%) and cobalt (96.0-97.7%) plus encouraging initial extractions of Cu of 73.6 -75.4% from massive sulphides. We believe that the Cu extraction rate can be significantly improved, and the PGE metals can be recovered with additional testing.'
'We are expanding the bio-leaching tests to develop a mineral processing flowsheet for the high recovery of nickel, cobalt, copper and PGE. When proven, this flowsheet can simplify mineral processing, bypassing smelting and metal refining, and it will substantially reduce the capital expenditures needed for mine development, energy consumption, and operating cost for production. We believe that bio-leach extraction is a promising technology for developing a low-cost, low-carbon footprint mine at the Ferguson Lake Project.'
'Following the communities engagements programs in 2024 in southeast Nunavut, we have increased the communications with local communities, local governments and investors for the potential mine development of the Ferguson Lake Project.'
Quarter 1 of 2025 Highlights:
Subsequent Events:
For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, The Company ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $771,839 and reported a net profit and comprehensive profit of $46,394 or $0.00 per share.

Oshkosh Corporation Poised for Solid Revenue Growth and Margin Expansion
OSHKOSH, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE: OSK), a leading innovator of purpose-built vehicles and equipment, shared its strategy for growth and 2028 financial targets at its Investor Day held June 5, 2025. The Company announced the following 2028 consolidated financial targets: _______________________________ 1 This news release refers to GAAP (U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) and non-GAAP financial measures. Oshkosh Corporation believes that the non-GAAP measures provide investors a useful comparison of the Company's performance to prior period results. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies. A reconciliation of the Company's presented non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures can be found under the caption 'Non-GAAP Financial Measures' in this news release. 2 Net cash provided by operating activities less additions to property, plant and equipment, divided by net income. Expand 'At Oshkosh, we are harnessing the strength of our industry-leading brands and advanced technologies to support everyday heroes across the globe,' said John Pfeifer, president and chief executive officer of Oshkosh Corporation. 'With a strong foundation and a clear vision, we are targeting strong revenue and adjusted EPS growth over the next three years. This reflects our confidence in the business, underpinned by a robust backlog and sustained demand across our end markets. We are executing our Innovate. Serve. Advance. strategy to drive revenue growth and transform our margins. Driven by our purpose of making a difference in people's lives, we are focused on delivering innovation that moves the world forward.' Revenue growth target supported by executing existing contracts and backlog: multi-year backlogs and existing contracts in the Company's Vocational and Transport segments support approximately 50% of targeted revenue growth in 2028. Oshkosh is poised to capitalize on key industry trends and expects solid, long-term demand for its industry-leading products to drive success. A path to transformative margin expansion: actions taken during the past few years are transforming Oshkosh's margin profile. The Company expects updated, sole-source contracts and new product launches in the Transport segment to support improved profitability. Additionally, Oshkosh is implementing cost reduction initiatives and enhancing operational efficiency through autonomous technologies that leverage artificial intelligence to improve throughput companywide. The Company continues to invest in customer-centric product innovations as it plans to reinforce and grow its leading positions on the journey toward achieving its 2028 targets. Increased portfolio resilience: Oshkosh is growing strong resilient segments to support balanced returns. In 2028, Oshkosh expects the Vocational segment's contribution to adjusted operating income to be on par with its Access segment. The delivery vehicle business is also growing, and defense margins are expected to improve with new economic price adjustment provisions. The Company recently renamed its Defense segment to the Transport segment to better reflect its broader scope of business. Cash generation and capital management: after a period of elevated new product and capital spending, the Company expects to generate significant free cash flow and attractive free cash flow conversion. Oshkosh employs disciplined capital allocation while reinvesting organically in its businesses. The Company is committed to returning cash to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had 9.9 million shares available for repurchase under the current authorization.

The Company intends that all statements in this news release concerning the 2028 Targets, including without limitation the Company's financial targets for 2028; its plans to evolve its product portfolio; growth trends and drivers; its strategic and capital allocation priorities; its plans, objectives and expectations; future financial and other results it seeks to attain; its competitive advantages; the new product introductions it contemplates and anticipated revenues from new products; financial pillars; takeaways and messages; its cost reduction plans; its capacity expansion plans; its expectations concerning free cash flow; its resilience; its investment strategy; its M&A strategy; and its views of market opportunities and benefits and other matters resulting from the 2028 Targets, are statements that the Company believes to be 'forward-looking statements' within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Without limitation, when used in this news release, words such as 'may,' 'will,' 'expect,' 'intend,' 'estimate,' 'anticipate,' 'believe,' 'should,' 'project,' 'confident,' 'executing,' 'building,' 'improving,' 'advancing,' 'expanding,' 'trends,' 'positioned,' or 'plan' or the negative thereof or variations thereon or similar terminology are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. Similarly, references in the strategy circle that appears in this news release to diversified growth, healthy margins and disciplined capital allocation are intended to be forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors, some of which are beyond the Company's control, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These factors include the cyclical nature of the Company's access equipment, fire apparatus, refuse and recycling collection and air transportation equipment markets, which are particularly impacted by the strength of U.S. and European economies and construction seasons; the Company's estimates of access equipment demand which, among other factors, is influenced by historical customer buying patterns and rental company fleet replacement strategies; the impact of orders and costs on the U.S. Postal Service contract; risks that a trade war and related tariffs could reduce the demand for or competitiveness of the Company's products or cause inefficiencies in the Company's supply chain; the Company's ability to increase prices to raise margins or to offset higher input costs; the Company's ability to accurately predict future input costs associated with Defense contracts; the Company's ability to attract and retain production labor in a timely manner; the Company's ability to realize the anticipated benefits associated with the AeroTech acquisition; the strength of the U.S. dollar and its impact on Company exports, translation of foreign sales and the cost of purchased materials; the impact of severe weather, war, natural disasters or pandemics that may affect the Company, its suppliers or its customers; the Company's ability to predict the level and timing of orders for indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contracts with the U.S. federal government; budget uncertainty for the U.S. federal government, including risks of future budget cuts, the impact of continuing resolution funding mechanisms and the potential for shutdowns; the impact of any U.S. Department of Defense solicitation for competition for future contracts to produce military vehicles; risks related to the collectability of receivables, particularly for those businesses with exposure to construction markets; the cost of any warranty campaigns related to the Company's products; risks associated with international operations and sales, including compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act; the Company's ability to comply with complex laws and regulations applicable to U.S. government contractors; cybersecurity risks and costs of defending against, mitigating and responding to data security threats and breaches impacting the Company; the Company's ability to successfully identify, complete and integrate other acquisitions and to realize the anticipated benefits associated with the same; and risks related to the Company's ability to successfully execute on its strategic road map and meet its long-term financial goals.

All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this news release. The Company assumes no obligation, and disclaims any obligation, to update information contained in this news release to reflect subsequent events or circumstances. In particular: The statements in this news release relate to the Company's goals, targets and objectives regarding the 2028 Targets and potential results from the 2028 Targets. While many statements use language that might imply a level of certainty about the likelihood that the Company will attain these goals, targets and objectives, it is possible that the Company will not attain them in the timeframe noted or at all. By their nature, the risk and uncertainty associated with these goals, targets and objectives are greater than that associated with near-term guidance and should not be construed as guidance. Therefore, investors should construe these statements regarding the 2028 Targets only as goals, targets and objectives rather than promises of future performance or absolute statements. Non-GAAP Financial Measures The Company reports its financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP). The Company is presenting various estimates on a basis excluding items that affect comparability of results. When the Company excludes certain items as described below, they are considered non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes excluding the impact of these items is useful to investors in comparing the Company's performance to prior period results. However, while adjusted operating income and adjusted earnings per share exclude amortization of purchased intangibles, revenue and earnings of acquired companies are reflected in adjusted operating income and adjusted earnings per share and intangible assets contribute to the generation of revenue and earnings. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company's results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The table below presents a reconciliation of the Company's presented non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures:

Global Trading Card Game Authentication Services Market Size to Surpass US$ 6,611.93 Million By 2033
Fueled by escalating collector caution, rapid technology upgrades, and intensifying regulatory oversight, the 2024 trading card game authentication services market is transforming into infrastructure delivering faster, greener, blockchain-secured grading and diversified data-driven revenue streams. Chicago, June 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global trading card game authentication services market was valued at US$ 2,239.04 million in 2024 and is expected to reach US$ 6,611.93 million by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 13.13% during the forecast period 2025–2033. The fever surrounding Pokémon's 151 set, Lorcana's successive sell-outs, and One Piece Card Game's headline launch have kept third-party graders busier than ever. PSA alone encapsulated 7.5 million TCG cards during 2023, a jump of 1.4 million units over the prior year. eBay reports 2.3 million authenticated singles shipped through its Authenticity Guarantee hub, underscoring a consumer base that refuses to trade raw cards after a $2.1 million fake Black Lotus ring was exposed in February 2024. Reinforced by such fraud busts, the trading card game authentication services market now sits at the heart of every serious transaction, while hobby shops redirect bulk submissions because slabbed inventory turns faster online. Download Sample Pages: Private-equity funds, notably the Altan-backed Collectible Opportunity Fund, treat graded TCG pieces as short-duration alternative investments and demand ISO 17025-calibrated graders. Fractional-ownership platforms such as Rally and Otis will no longer accept cards without verifiable serials that pass a public API check, a policy introduced after a surge in counterfeit MetaZoo items. Consequently, dealers across Singapore, Düsseldorf, and São Paulo are fast-tracking submittals to remain competitive, further accelerating activity within the trading card game authentication services market and binding its fortunes directly to both retail and institutional appetite. Key Findings in Global Trading Card Game Authentication Services Market Market Forecast (2033) US$ 6,611.93 million CAGR 13.13% Largest Region (2024) North America (40%) By Service Type Grading Services (62.71%) By Technology QR Code Scanning (35.54%) By Application Sport Cards (40.11%) By End Users Individual Collectors (42.44%) Top Drivers Post-pandemic collectible surge driving record grading submissions and authentication demand. High-value auction results incentivize collectors to seek professional provenance verification. AI-enhanced scanning improves throughput, reducing turnaround costs for grading firms. Top Trends Embedded NFC slabs enable instant mobile authentication, heightening consumer engagement. European satellite labs reduce cross-border shipping risk, bolstering regional grading. Partnerships with e-commerce platforms integrate grading status directly into listings. Top Challenges Counterfeits employing advanced printing techniques outpace traditional visual inspection protocols. Regional regulatory discrepancies complicate insurance valuation standards for authenticated cards. Rising labor costs strain mid-tier graders lacking substantial automation investments. Technology Innovations Revolutionize Card Authentication Accuracy and Processing Times Rapidly Machine-learning vision, ultraviolet fluorescence mapping, and 8-gigapixel stitching have collapsed PSA's average turnaround from 25 days in early 2023 to nine days by March 2024. Beckett's new VisionPRO rig now batch-scans 450 cards per hour, while SGC's LUCIA platform measures centering within 0.15 millimeters. Hardware gains dovetail with cloud-based model retraining, allowing algorithms to learn from every submission without manual tagging, thereby tightening grading consistency across offices. Precision upgrades reinforce confidence, not just speed. CGC maintains a 30-terabyte library that maps ink dispersion across 186 verified paper stocks, blocking high-quality proxies from Shenzhen print farms. Blockchain-anchored audit logs feed directly into marketplace APIs, enabling instant listing verification. As a result, the trading card game authentication services market is shifting from artisanal craftsmanship toward data-driven reproducibility. Consumers enjoy smoother cross-border deals, insurers gain hard defect probabilities, and overall trust elevates the trading card game authentication services market to infrastructure status. Competitive Landscape Expands As New Entrants Address Niche Collector Needs Brand reputation once formed the primary moat, yet 2024 is witnessing specialized graders move into underserved corners of the hobby. Osaka-based Cardriffic launched in January with bilingual support for Weiss Schwarz and Vanguard, logging 48,000 submissions in its first quarter. Madrid's Grade4Good courts eco-conscious fans by using recycled PETG slabs and water-borne inks, while partnering with DHL eCommerce to offer sub-$12 return shipping that legacy firms struggle to match. Incumbents are responding aggressively. In April 2024 PSA's parent, Collectors Holdings, invested in UK-based PeerPass, whose NFC chips slide between card and sleeve without adding thickness. Such add-ons defend market share even as venture capital pours in—Crunchbase lists 17 card-grading funding rounds since July 2023 totaling $98 million. Each infusion heightens service differentiation, spawning anime-themed labels and subscription-bundled population reports that keep the trading card game authentication services market vibrant. Ultimately, innovation pressure raises the performance bar across the market and expands choice for collectors. Regulatory Scrutiny and Intellectual Property Enforcement Shape Service Compliance Requirements Public agencies now view graded TCG assets as potential conduits for illicit finance. FinCEN's 2023 Notice on High-Value Collectibles added graded cards to its watchlist, forcing large submission centers to adopt customer-due-diligence protocols similar to bullion dealers. Germany's Zoll customs service pilots machine-vision kiosks at Frankfurt Airport to flag slabbed items with suspicious valuations after counterfeit Pikachu Illustrator seizures totaling €11.2 million. IP owners also act decisively. The Pokémon Company International filed a landmark suit in January 2024 against an Arizona seller whose falsely authenticated cards exploited holographic trademarks, citing 'willful negligence' by the grader. The language shook confidence across the trading card game authentication services market. Graders now maintain encrypted photo archives and tamper-evident sleeves applauded by EUIPO officials. Compliance costs rise, yet marketplace trust deepens—an equilibrium rapidly becoming a competitive moat within the evolving market. Regional Dynamics Highlight Asia-Pacific Surge and European Platform Consolidations Ahead Capacity has migrated east. PSA's Hong Kong hub processed 1.9 million TCG cards in 2023, eclipsing its California volume for the first time. Singapore's Qube Grading moved to a 24-hour roster to handle nightly air-cargo deliveries, while Tokyo retailer Hareruya 2 sold 11,400 graded One Piece singles during Golden Week alone. Bandai's dense event calendar and the rise of cashless high-street resellers amplify submission momentum. Europe tells a different story. French player PCA acquired Belgium's CardCase in February 2024, and rumors swirl of a Nordic buyout spree aiming to build a pan-EU logistics network. These tie-ups seek to offset post-Brexit customs delays that add six days to door-to-door times. Accordingly, the trading card game authentication services market exhibits divergent regional signatures: capacity expansion dominates Asia-Pacific, whereas consolidation efficiencies headline Europe. Still, both vectors focus on faster, safer slabs, anchoring long-term growth in the market. Digital Twins and Blockchain Underpin Next-Generation Provenance Verification Tools Today Digital twins now accompany slabs as JSON certificates on permissioned Polygon Supernets. CGC's November 2023 beta minted 210,000 tokenized reports, allowing vault-stored Grail pieces to trade ownership without physical movement. Twelve condition variables, from surface gloss to corner tensile strength, are hashed alongside graders' private signatures; repairs append rather than overwrite records, preserving immutable custody chains. Marketplaces reacted quickly. TCGplayer integrated wallet-less verification, cutting Pokémon return claims from 3,420 in Q4 2022 to 1,180 a year later. Lower indemnity reserves please insurers and raise trust during Whatnot livestreams. Because blockchain travels worldwide instantly, it internationalizes the trading card game authentication services market and frees liquidity once trapped by geography. As more graders commit to shared ledgers, composability becomes the next competitive frontier within the market. Need Custom Data? Let Us Know: Future Outlook Forecasts Diversified Revenue Streams Beyond Traditional Grading Services Graders are testing services that stretch beyond numeric scores. Beckett's October 2024 pilot offers real-time condition monitoring at $4.99 per slab per year for vault clients, while PSA's collaboration with Immutable provides 'Game-Ready' certification for cards eligible in officially sanctioned digital tournaments, blurring lines between physical and online play. These add-ons scale profitability without more plastic. Monetization is also shifting to data licensing. Population reports now feed anonymized trend analytics to hedge-fund dashboards and insurers at roughly $2 per graded card annually, elevating the trading card game authentication services market from back-end utility to real-time pricing oracle. Advisory layers—portfolio rebalancing guidance, estate planning, even AI-driven sell-through optimization—are appearing on PSA Japan's rate card. As such services mature, they promise to embed the market deeper into the value stack of collecting, investing, and competitive gameplay alike.
