Rosen Law Firm Encourages Telix Pharmaceuticals Ltd. Investors to Inquire About Securities Class Action Investigation

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Why: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, announces an investigation of potential securities claims on behalf of shareholders of Telix Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (NASDAQ: TLX) resulting from allegations that Telix may have issued materially misleading business information to the investing public. So What: If you purchased Telix securities you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. The Rosen Law Firm is preparing a class action seeking recovery of investor losses. What to do next: To join the prospective class action, go to or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email case@ for information on the class action. What is this about: On July 22, 2025, Telix disclosed receipt of a subpoena from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which was 'seeking various documents and information primarily relating to the Company's disclosures regarding the development of the Company's prostate cancer therapeutic candidates.'

KBRA Assigns AA- Rating to Various Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission Turnpike Revenue Bonds; Affirms Related Ratings

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA assigns a long-term rating of AA- to the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission: Turnpike Revenue Bonds, Series B-1 of 2025; Turnpike Revenue Bonds, Series B-2 of 2025; Turnpike Revenue Refunding Bonds, Third Series of 2025, Sub-series A; and, Turnpike Revenue Refunding Bonds, Third Series of 2025, Sub-series B. KBRA additionally affirms the long-term ratings of AA- for the Commission's outstanding Turnpike Revenue Bonds, A+ for the Commission's outstanding Turnpike Subordinate Revenue Bonds, and AA- for the Commission's outstanding Motor License Fund-Enhanced Turnpike Subordinate Special Revenue Bonds. The Outlook for each obligation is Stable. Key Credit Considerations The rating actions reflect the following key credit considerations: Credit Positives The Turnpike System is a highly essential, statewide, regional toll road system with limited competition. The Commission has full rate setting autonomy which, together with prudent finance management and controls, has supported strong margins and stable debt service coverage. Credit Challenges The Commission's O&M, capital and existing debt obligations, including its outstanding Act 44/89 obligations, are substantial and require annual toll increases, the cumulative effect of which may at some point dampen traffic demand, reducing operating margins and financial flexibility. The planned issuance of $3.6 billion in senior obligations per the 10-year capital plan may pressure subordinate obligation coverage if actual traffic demand is materially weaker than forecast, although the Commission's capital plans remain flexible if traffic volumes are not consistent with forecasts. Rating Sensitivities For Upgrade A sustained trend of increasing net revenue resulting in debt service coverages well in excess of the Commission's targets of 2.0x annual debt service on senior lien, 1.30x combined annual senior and subordinate debt service and 1.20x annual debt service for all obligations. For Downgrade A sustained decline in net revenue DSCRs below the Commission's targets for all obligations. To access ratings and relevant documents, click here.
