Faraday Future Files Three Patent Applications Through its Future AIHER Subsidiary Relating to AI-Powered Hybrid Extended-Range Systems
Future AIHER is positioning itself to lead commercialization and innovation through a two-phase strategic plan. In the short term, it would focus on integrating existing third-party range extender technology into the planned Faraday X (FX) vehicles, which could enable a faster market entry. In the long term, Future AIHER would aim to design and develop its own AI-driven range extender solutions, leveraging advanced technology to enhance efficiency and potentially expand commercialization opportunities to other mobility OEMs including air, ground, and ocean applications, such as electric vertical takeoff and landing (EVTOL) aircraft, commercial trucking, and electric boating industries.

Sacramento City Council approves revised $1.6 million city budget
Sacramento city leaders have reached the culmination of a months-long process, voting to pass a revised $1.6 billion city budget and close a $62 million funding gap. In the revised budget, the City of Sacramento says it will not lay off any city employees. Though funding for vacant positions was cut, the mayor says no one is out of a job. "We adopted our budget, which was the number one thing cities must do every year. We had to make some tough decisions but by and large, residents won't see any major impacts in their communities," Mayor Kevin McCarty told CBS Sacramento after the vote. " We didn't adversely cut public safety funding from police and fire. The budget also restores money for youth violence prevention funding. However, ahead of the vote, what we heard in public comment was frustration and doubt from most of the public speakers who said the budget doesn't have enough money for the community or youth. Councilmembers Lisa Kaplan and Mai Vange opposed the revised budget. "I don't think we are doing what we need to do to be readily transparent, implement our values, and show a two-year budget when we know the minute this passes, which I know this will, that we are already $60 million in the hole," Kaplan said ahead of the vote. The mayor added that the council will be back to address a deficit next year, saying that the problems aren't over.

Canada's WSP Global to acquire UK's Ricardo for $490 million
(Reuters) -Canada-based WSP Global said on Wednesday that it would acquire British environmental and engineering consulting firm Ricardo for about 363.1 million pounds ($489.6 million) including debt. Under the deal, Ricardo shareholders will receive 430 pence in cash per share, a 28.4% premium to its closing price on June 10. The British company had been under pressure from rival and investor Science Group , who had been pushing for a sale or breakup of Ricardo amid calls to oust Chairman Mark Clare and other directors, citing underperformance and structural inefficiencies. Science Group, Ricardo's second-largest investor with a 21.76% stake according to LSEG data, said on Wednesday it would sell a 20% stake to WSP for about 53.5 million pounds.

Qantas shutters Jetstar Asia, blaming costs and competition
STORY: Australia's Qantas is shutting down its Singapore-based budget airline, Jetstar Asia. That will mean up to 500 job losses, and see the carrier's fleet of Airbus jets redeployed to Australia and New Zealand. Qantas said Wednesday that rising costs and mounting competition had driven the move. Since the end of the pandemic, budget rivals like AirAsia and Scoot have ramped up services. That has driven competition up, and airfares down. Jetstar Group Chief Executive Stephanie Tully says Singapore's Changi Airport has also become a very expensive place to run an airline. It's been steadily raising charges to pay for investment. Tully says costs there have soared for fuel, airport fees, ground handling and security. She said Jetstar Asia had only been profitable in six of its 20 years, and was on track for another deficit this year. Now the airline will be shuttered at the end of July, with customers offered refunds or rebooking on other carriers where possible. The shutdown does not affect Qantas's other budget units - Jetstar Airways and Jetstar Japan. Shares in Qantas were down around 1.5% in afternoon trade following Wednesday's news.
