High Wire Networks Announces Reverse Stock Split
BATAVIA, Ill., May 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- High Wire Networks, Inc. (OTCQB: HWNI), a global provider of managed cybersecurity services, today announced that its board of directors has determined to effect a one-for-250 reverse stock split of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the 'Common Stock'). Mark Porter, High Wire Networks CEO commented, 'This is an important and essential step in our ongoing efforts to become listed on a major exchange. Inclusive of increasing our stock price, it also better positions the Company to meet several requirements as set out by Nasdaq, while more closely reflecting the true value of our stock to the market. We look forward to continuing the pursuit to list on the Nasdaq and to providing updates to shareholders on our progress.' The reverse stock split will take effect at market open on Monday June, 2, 2025 on the OTCQB market. The CUSIP number of 42981W203 will be assigned to the Company's Common Stock when the reverse stock split becomes effective. When the reverse stock split becomes effective, every 250 of the Company's issued shares of Common Stock will be combined into one issued share of Common Stock, without any change to the par value per share. This will reduce the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock from approximately 251,151,117 million shares to approximately 1,004,604 million shares. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Stockholders who would otherwise hold a fraction of a share of Common Stock of the Company will automatically be entitled to receive an additional fraction of a share of Common Stock to round up to the next whole share. The reverse stock split ratio approved by the board of directors is within the previously disclosed range of ratios for a reverse stock split disclosed in the Company's Information Statement filed on February 10, 2025.

ZeniMax QA workers win tentative union contract with Microsoft
After two years of negotiating, ZeniMax Workers United-CWA, the union representing quality assurance workers at ZeniMax Media, has reached a tentative union contract with Microsoft, according to the Communication Workers of America. The union originally formed in 2023 and was immediately recognized by Microsoft, which made its commitment to stay neutral towards union organizing at ZeniMax official in 2024. The new contract will cover over 300 ZeniMax employees and includes "substantial across-the-board wage increases as well as new minimum salaries for workers," the CWA says. The contract also includes language protecting workers from the impacts of AI and "a crediting policy that clearly acknowledges the QA workers' contributions to the video games they help create." "Video games have been the revenue titan of the entire entertainment industry for years, and the workers who develop these games are too often exploited for their passion and creativity," Jessee Leese, a QA tester and ZeniMax Workers United-CWA bargaining committee member shared in the CWA announcement. "Our first contract is an invitation for video game professionals everywhere to take action. We're the ones who make these games, and we'll be the ones to set new standards for fair treatment." The new contract is considered "tentative" until union members ratify it, but because existing contracts often act as a reference in ongoing negotiations, the agreements ZeniMax workers secured will likely serve as a standard for other unions going forward. ZeniMax QA testers aren't the only video game union at Microsoft — QA workers at Raven Software, QA workers at Activision, workers at ZeniMax Online Studios and the development team behind Overwatch are all still in active negotiations with the company. Outside of Microsoft, the CWA also announced the United Game Workers-CWA union at this year's GDC, as a another option for representation. United Game Workers-CWA is a direct-join union, a labor organization that all workers in an industry can participate in without needing legal recognition from an employer. The idea is that currently employed workers, anyone who's been laid off and freelancers can all still wield power together, even without a potential contract hanging in the balance.
