Kontrol Technologies Launches BuildX AI Platform and Announces Loan Agreement
The Company serves over 400 commercial and industrial buildings with HVAC solutions and services. It has launched BuildX AI, a new platform designed to improve how building owners and operators interact with their buildings and HVAC systems. Traditionally, the industry focuses on equipment replacement and maintenance cycles, but this approach often lacks efficient data integration and analytics to improve how buildings and HVAC assets are managed. BuildX AI addresses this by connecting with existing equipment and incorporating advanced drone technology and sensors throughout buildings. Asset managers and owners will gain much needed insights and actionable data to improve operations and capital budgeting.
"AI enables us to process vast amounts of data and deliver actionable insights for better asset management and streamlined operations," said Paul Ghezzi, CEO of Kontrol. "We are in the early stages of growing our AI platform and are planning multiple customer pilots over the next six months."
The Company will provide an update on its pilots as they are completed.
The Company continues to review multiple potential acquisition opportunities. The potential acquisitions are subject to customary due diligence and definitive agreements. The Company will provide further details subject to reaching definitive agreements.
Loan Agreement
The Company further announced that it has entered into loan agreement dated May 2nd, 2025 (the ' Loan Agreement ') pursuant to which the Company has agreed to loan Paul Ghezzi, CEO of the Company, the principal amount of $680,000 (the ' Loan '). The Loan is repayable within one year and will bear interest at the CRA prescribed rate.
The Loan constitutes a 'related party transaction' pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (' MI 61-101 '). The transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and minority securityholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as the fair market value of the Loan does not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization, calculated in accordance with MI 61-101.
The Loan was unanimously approved by the directors of the Company entitled to vote thereon, which consisted of all directors of the Company except for Mr. Ghezzi who abstained from voting.

Pulsar Helium Announces Major Flow Test Results at Jetstream #1, Topaz Project
THIS ANNOUNCEMENT AND THE INFORMATION CONTAINED HEREIN IS RESTRICTED AND IS NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN, INTO OR FROM AUSTRALIA, JAPAN OR THE REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA OR TO BE TRANSMITTED, DISTRIBUTED TO, OR SENT BY, ANY NATIONAL OR RESIDENT OR CITIZEN OF ANY SUCH COUNTRIES OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH SUCH RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION MAY CONTRAVENE LOCAL SECURITIES LAWS OR REGULATIONS. CASCAIS, Portugal, Aug. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pulsar Helium Inc. (AIM: PLSR, TSXV: PLSR, OTCQB: PSRHF) ('Pulsar' or the 'Company'), a leading helium project development company, is delighted to report major natural flow test results at the Jetstream #1 appraisal well, part of the Topaz helium project in Minnesota, USA. These latest results mark a major leap in well performance, with natural flow rates more than tripling those recorded in 2024. A summary of the results is as follows: On August 15, 2025 Jetstream #1 achieved a peak natural flow rate of ~501 thousand cubic feet per day (~501 Mcf/d) on a 38/64' choke at ~30 pounds per square inch (psi) well head pressure (WHP), achieved with no compression or stimulation. No formation water has been encountered; the gas has flowed as dry gas. Substantial improvement over 2024 tests: In April 2024, Jetstream #1 achieved a peak natural flow of ~150 Mcf/d at 34 psi WHP (~821 Mcf/d under well-head compression) with helium concentrations ranging from 8.7% to 14.5%; the well is now flowing at more than three times the rate recorded in April 2024 under similar pressure conditions. Significance and Next Steps: As Pulsar President & CEO Thomas Abraham-James stated in April 2024, the Jetstream #1 results confirmed a 'major new helium discovery, putting Topaz in the top tier of global primary helium projects'. The latest test program builds decisively on that foundation, validating Topaz's potential as a globally significant source of primary helium. Further updates imminent: Additional sustained-flow results, flow results under well-head compression, and full gas composition analyses are in the process of being obtained. When testing is complete, all equipment will then be moved to Jetstream #2 for equivalent testing. Thomas Abraham-James, President & CEO of Pulsar, commented: 'The deepening of the Jetstream #1 appraisal well to a total depth of 5,100 feet, penetrating the entire interpreted helium-bearing zone, has proven highly successful. The well is now naturally flowing at ~501 thousand cubic feet per day at 30 pounds per square inch WHP, more than three times the peak natural flow achieved in 2024. This result validates our subsurface model, significantly de-risks the Topaz project, and confirms the reservoir's outstanding productivity. This is especially exciting considering the 2024 gas analysis for the same well returned helium concentrations ranging from 8.7% to 14.5%. With further flow testing, including under well-head compression, and gas composition analyses to follow, we look forward to sharing further updates, and the results of Jetstream #2. These results underscore the immense opportunity at Topaz and signal the start of unlocking its full potential.' Test Results and Analysis The Jetstream #1 well delivered a maximum natural flow rate of ~501 thousand cubic feet per day (Mcf/d) during open-flow testing on August 15, 2025. This was observed on a 38/64-inch choke at approximately 30 psi WHP, without compression assistance. By comparison, during initial appraisal in April 2024, Jetstream #1 reached a peak natural flow of ~150 Mcf/d at 34 psi. The improvement of more than threefold under near-identical pressure conditions highlights the effectiveness of recent wellbore clean-up and deepening and underscores the formation's strong productivity. Importantly, no formation water has been encountered, the gas has flowed as dry gas. In addition to the peak result, Jetstream #1 demonstrated stable long-duration flows, producing 150–300 Mcf/d for periods of 12–18 hours on smaller choke sizes. These sustained flows showed no significant decline and were followed by rapid pressure recovery, indicating excellent reservoir recharge capacity. Compression Testing and Expected Upside To further assess the well's maximum capacity, Pulsar is commencing a compression-assisted flow test. By reducing WHP via surface compression, flow rates are expected to increase significantly. For reference, compression applied during the February 2024 test program resulted in a maximum flow rate of ~821 Mcf/d. The current test is designed to validate Jetstream #1's full potential and provide key data for production facility design and future development planning. A Brief Explanation of Flow Testing Under 'Natural' Conditions and Under 'Compression' When a well produces under natural flow, the gas comes to surface on its own, pushed out purely by the pressure in the reservoir. It's a strong indicator of how much energy the reservoir holds. With compression, special surface equipment is used to lower the pressure at the wellhead, which makes it easier for the gas to flow out. This doesn't change the size of the reservoir, but it allows much higher flow rates and gives a clearer picture of the well's maximum production potential. About the Topaz Project The Topaz project is located in northern Minnesota, USA where Pulsar is the first mover and holds exclusive leases. Drilling at the Jetstream #1 appraisal well reached total depth ('TD') of 5,100 feet (1,555 metres) on January 11, 2025, successfully penetrating the entire interpreted helium-bearing reservoir and beyond. The Jetstream #1 appraisal well previously reached TD of 2,200 feet (671 metres) on February 27, 2024, identifying top-tier helium concentrations of up to 14.5%, well above the 0.3% widely accepted economic threshold, and flowed at a rate of 821,000 cubic feet per day under well-head compression. Drilling of the Jetstream #2 appraisal well was completed on February 1, 2025, reaching a TD of 5,638 feet (1,718 metres). These activities will progress Pulsar's strategy become a producer of helium, addressing increasing global demand. On behalf of Pulsar Helium Inc.

Forward-Looking Statements This news release contains forward-looking information within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation (collectively, "forward-looking statements") that relate to the Company's current expectations and views of future events. Any statements that express, or involve discussions as to, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, through the use of words or phrases such as "will likely result", "are expected to", "expects", "will continue", "is anticipated", "anticipates", "believes", "estimated", "intends", "plans", "forecast", "projection", "strategy", "objective" and "outlook") are not historical facts and may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements herein include, but are not limited to, statements relating to the completion of the flow testing and pressure build up tests of Jetstream #2, the timing of completion of the flow testing and pressure testing; the potential impact of the drill results, flow testing and pressure testing on the next iteration of the resource estimate; the potential of CO2 as a valuable by-product of the Company's future helium production; and the potential for future wells. Forward-looking statements may involve estimates and are based upon assumptions made by management of the Company, including, but not limited to, the Company's capital cost estimates, management's expectations regarding the availability of capital to fund the Company's future capital and operating requirements and the ability to obtain all requisite regulatory approvals. No reserves have been assigned in connection with the Company's property interests to date, given their early stage of development. The future value of the Company is therefore dependent on the success or otherwise of its activities, which are principally directed toward the future exploration, appraisal and development of its assets, and potential acquisition of property interests in the future. Un-risked Contingent and Prospective Helium Volumes have been defined at the Topaz Project. However, estimating helium volumes is subject to significant uncertainties associated with technical data and the interpretation of that data, future commodity prices, and development and operating costs. There can be no guarantee that the Company will successfully convert its helium volume to reserves and produce that estimated volume. Estimates may alter significantly or become more uncertain when new information becomes available due to for example, additional drilling or production tests over the life of field. As estimates change, development and production plans may also vary. Downward revision of helium volume estimates may adversely affect the Company's operational or financial performance. Helium volume estimates are expressions of judgement based on knowledge, experience and industry practice. These estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on interpretations, which may ultimately prove to be inaccurate and require adjustment or, even if valid when originally calculated, may alter significantly when new information or techniques become available. As further information becomes available through additional drilling and analysis the estimates are likely to change. Any adjustments to volume could affect the Company's exploration and development plans which may, in turn, affect the Company's performance. The process of estimating helium resources is complex and requires significant decisions and assumptions to be made in evaluating the reliability of available geological, geophysical, engineering, and economic date for each property. Different engineers may make different estimates of resources, cash flows, or other variables based on the same available data. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company's control, which could cause actual results and events to differ materially from those that are disclosed in or implied by such forward- looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, that Pulsar may be unsuccessful in completing the flow testing and pressure testing of Jetstream #2, in drilling commercially productive wells; the uncertainty of resource estimation; operational risks in conducting exploration, including that flow-testing, pressure testing and drill costs may be higher than estimates ; commodity prices; health, safety and environmental factors; and other factors set forth above as well as under "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements and Market and Industry Data" and "Risk Factors" in the AIM Admission Document published on October 14, 2024 found on the Company's web site at and the Company's Annual Information Form dated as of July 31, 2025 found on the Company's profile at Forward-looking statements contained in this news release are as of the date of this news release, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict all of them or assess the impact of each such factor or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.

Texas Pacific Land Corporation (TPL) Releases Financial and Operating Results for Q2 2025
Texas Pacific Land Corporation (NYSE:TPL) is one of the Oversold Fundamentally Strong Stocks to Buy Now. On August 6, the company released its financial and operating results for Q2 2025, highlighting its financial resilience amid commodity price fluctuations, with quarterly revenue records witnessed in SLEM and produced water royalties. Texas Pacific Land Corporation (NYSE:TPL)'s significant footprint throughout royalties, surface, and water positions it to extract sources of value from the Permian's exceptional resource. A pipeline running through a rural landscape, a reminder of the companies oil and gas Royalty Interest. Texas Pacific Land Corporation (NYSE:TPL)'s total revenues for the 6 months ended June 30, 2025 came in at $383.5 million versus $346.5 million for the 6 months to June 30, 2024. The rise in total revenues was mainly because of a $24.3 million rise in oil and gas royalty revenue, as well as $17.2 million increase in easements and other surface-related income. As of June 30, 2025, Texas Pacific Land Corporation (NYSE:TPL)'s royalty acreage had an estimated 6.0 net well permits, 11.1 net drilled but uncompleted wells, and 5.1 net completed but not producing wells. In particular, record produced water royalty revenue highlights Texas Pacific Land Corporation (NYSE:TPL)'s unique position to provide essential solutions and capture high-quality cash flows. Wedgewood Partners, an investment management company, released its Q4 2024 investor letter. Here is what the fund said: 'Texas Pacific Land Corporation (NYSE:TPL) was a top contributor to performance during both the quarter and the year. Texas Pacific Land continues to be an extraordinarily unique and profitable business. The Company owns over 800,000 surface acres of land in the Texas Permian Basin. The vast majority of this land was acquired in the year 1888 and more recently (i.e. the last 15 years) this land became highly productive oil and gas royalty acreage thanks to modern drilling and completion techniques and technologies. Despite all of these deserved accolades, we liquidated our positions after the stock rallied quite sharply upon being consecutively added to two major stock indexes over the past seven months. The earnings power of the Company has not substantially changed over the past seven months (for better or worse). However, passive indexes and the traders and managers that closely follow and benchmark against those indexes effectively tripled their appraisal of the Company's corporate value, while that value never changed. We will continue to monitor Texas Paci7ic Land from the sidelines and would hope to invest in them again, perhaps after the market's 'animal spirits' subside.' While we acknowledge the potential of TPL as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.
