Poland, Romania lead a drone bonanza in Eastern Europe
WARSAW, Poland — As Poland's military is developing the Drone Force, its latest military component that was launched earlier this year, the Ministry of National Defence recently signed a deal to purchase the largest number of unmanned aerial vehicles in the country's history. The move comes as various Eastern European allies are advancing major drone purchases, drawing lessons from Russia's war against Ukraine. On May 15, the Polish ministry signed a framework agreement with local private defense company WB Group to buy some 10,000 units of the Warmate loitering munition. The contract foresees deliveries until 2035. 'This is a large-scale investment – 10,000 Warmate drones are becoming a fact,' Władysław Kosiniak Kamysz, Poland's deputy prime minister and defense minister, said at the official signing ceremony, as quoted in a statement. 'They will soon start being delivered to the Polish military. The next deals, which will be executive, will be signed in the near future,' he added. WB Group has been expanding its portfolio of UAVs over the past years. Some of the latest additions to the company's range include the Warmate TL-R reconnaissance system, FT5 mini tactical class drones in new variants, Warmate 20 loitering munition, and the extended-range Warmate 50. Warmate 20 has a range of 'several hundred kilometers' and Warmate 50's range exceeds that of Warmate 20, according to the company. Remigiusz Wilk, the head of communications at WB Group, told Defense News that, since the war's outbreak, the drone producer has observed a surge in interest in unmanned capabilities across the region. 'Drones are now considered an important protective measure for soldiers,' Wilk said. 'When combined, they allow to create complex aerial systems.' In the fighting between Ukraine against Russian invaders, sections of the front line have almost become devoid of human soldiers, with drones patrolling large swathes of land, ready to pounce on anything that moves. 'The more we push soldiers away from the battlefield and replace them with drones, the safer they are,' Wilk said. 'Drones have the potential to protect many lives, and the military appreciates this now more than ever before.' The Polish Armed Forces are showing an growing interest in buying new UAVs to develop their Drone Force, but WB Group is also using the company's expanding manufacturing capabilities to unlock additional markets. 'WB Group is currently building new facilities to produce more drones,' the spokesman said, listing countries in Europe and Asia, including South Korea and Malaysia, as clients. 'We have supplied drones to Ukraine's military since 2015, so we are in an optimal position to draw lessons from the conflict and continue to enhance our unmanned systems to respond to the evolving battlefield requirements.' At the same time, the Polish Drone Force will also comprise larger UAVs. In December 2024, the ministry signed a contract worth around $310 million to acquire an undisclosed number of MQ-9B Sky Guardian drones. The UAVs are to be delivered to Poland's military by the first quarter of 2027. Meanwhile in Romania, the country's economy minister, Bogdan Ivan, recently paid a visit to the factories of local drone manufacturers Carfil SA and IAR Ghimbav. During his visit to their facilities, Ivan announced Bucharest intends to use a significant portion of the European Union's funds for defense acquisitions by member states to buy drones for Romania's military. The Romanian minister was referring to the ReArm Europe plan, an initiative designed to bolster the EU's defense expenditure and capacities. Mobilizing up to €800 billion ($906 billion) through various means, the program is to stimulate higher national defense budgets and finance a new loan instrument available to member states to facilitate equipment purchases. Romanian officials hope the rising domestic drone production capabilities will allow to ramp up the military's unmanned capacities, but also enable local producers to sell a sizable share of their output abroad, according to the economy minister. 'When you have a production line that can make up to 3,500 drones annually, we will not only produce for the Romanian military,' Ivan said, as quoted by local daily Adevarul.

Inquest into death of Polish man adjourned for 14th time
Gardaí in Cork have thanked the city coroner for his patience and understanding as they sought a fourteenth adjournment of the inquest into the death of a man killed in front of his wife and children almost seven years ago, so that gardaí can get instructions on a murder file from the DPP. Sergeant Fergus Twomey told Cork City Coroner's Court that the inquest into the death of Polish national, Mikolaj Will had been first opened on 1 November 2018 when evidence of identification and of the cause of Mr Wilk's death were laid before the court. Mr Wilk, a Polish national worked as a landscape gardener. He was attacked by up to five masked men armed with machetes when they burst into his home, the Bridge House at Maglin near Ballincollig around 3am on 10 June 2018. Mr Wilk was repeatedly hacked in front of his wife, Elzbieta, who sustained serious slash injuries to her face, neck and hands as she sought to protect her husband. The couple's two children, who were both under six years of age at the time, were uninjured in the incident. A woman in her 30s, who was renting a room from the Wilks, managed to flee through a window at the rear of the house and ran to a nearby house to raise the alarm and gardaí responded finding Mr Wilk in a critical condition. Gardaí and HSE paramedics worked to try and stabilise Mr Wilk's condition before he was taken by ambulance to Cork University Hospital, where despite the extensive and horrific nature of his injuries, he survived for two hours before losing his fight for life. Re-opening the case today, Sgt Twomey said that the inquest had been mentioned 14 times including today since 1 November 2018 and he thanked Cork City Coroner Philip Comyn for his "patience and understanding" but he could now confirm that a file on the murder had been sent to the DPP. "This was a mammoth investigation with thousands of tasks and inquiries both within the State and in European countries with assistance from other police forces and a comprehensive investigation file has been forwarded to the DPP seeking directions." He said that as a consequence he was seeking another adjournment under Section 25 of the Coroner's Act 1962 to have the inquest adjourned until 15 November for mention to allow investigators to wait for the DPP's directions. Mr Comyn said that it was evident from what Sgt Twomey said that gardaí had made progress in their investigation into the murder of Mr Wilk and as a result he was willing to adjourn the matter to allow gardaí obtain directions from the DPP on the case. "I know this case dates from 2018 but I note that there has been a lot of work done by An Garda Síochána in the investigation and they have now forwarded a file to the Director of Public Prosecutions so I'm happy to adjourn it," he said, adjourning the matter until 15 November. A Garda Family Liaison Officer has been keeping Mr Wilk's wife, Elzbieta informed of developments. She and her children returned to Poland in June 2018 following the murder of her husband.

Cork machete murder: Gardaí submit file to DPP on the killing of Mikolaj Wilk
Gardaí investigating the brutal murder of a man who was hacked to death by a gang in Cork almost seven years ago have submitted a massive file on the case to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP). Sergeant Fergus Twomey told Cork City Coroner Philip Comyn that gardaí have conducted a "mammoth" investigation into the murder of Polish man, Mikolaj Wilk, 35, in his rented home near Ballincollig, west of Cork city, in June 2018, as the adjourned inquest into the death was in for mention. It was opened on November 1, 2018 to hear evidence of identification and cause of death, and has been adjourned for mention 14 times over the years as the active garda investigation continued. 'This was a mammoth investigation with thousands of tasks and inquiries both within the state and in European countries with assistance from other police forces and a comprehensive investigation file has been forwarded to the DPP seeking directions," Sgt Twomey said. Mr Comyn said while the case dates back to 2018, it was clear there has been a lot of work done by the gardaí involved and he was satisfied to further adjourn the hearing until November. St Augustine's Church, Washington St, Cork, was packed for a Mass celebrated by Polish chaplain Fr Pitor Galus in June 2018 for the Wilk family. file picture: David Keane Mr Wilk was attacked in front of his wife, Elzbieta, by a gang of up to five masked men armed with machetes, at their home in Maglin, just outside Ballincollig, in the early hours of June 10, 2018. Elzbieta suffered serious injuries to her face, neck and hands as she tried to protect her husband. Their two young children, who were in the house at the time, were not physically injured. A woman who was renting a room in the house fled through a rear window and raised the alarm with neighbours. Gardaí and emergency services rushed to the scene and found Mr Wilk in critical condition, with senior gardaí describing the scene and level of violence inflicted as one of the worst they had encountered. Mr Wilk was rushed to Cork University Hospital, but died two hours later his injuries. Gardaí launched a massive investigation and over the coming months arrested six suspects, two Poles, two Latvians, and an Irish man and woman, all in their 30s and all with addresses at the time in Cork city. They were all released with without charge pending a file to the DPP. Elzbieta, who returned to Poland with her children in June 2018, has been kept up to date on the investigation.

CompoSecure Reports First Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Operating results in line with expectations Reiterating previously issued full-year 2025 guidance Completed spin-off of Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. (Nasdaq: RHLD) Accounting standards related to the spin-off require the Company to report results using equity method of accounting in accordance with U.S. GAAP Non-GAAP results are also included below and provide a clearer picture of the underlying financial performance of the operating business consistent with historical reporting SOMERSET, N.J., May 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CompoSecure, Inc. (Nasdaq: CMPO), a leader in metal payment cards, security, and authentication solutions, today announced its financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025. 'We started the year with solid execution across our payment card and Arculus business,' said Jon Wilk, President and CEO of CompoSecure. 'Demand has continued to strengthen throughout the second quarter, reflecting strong sales momentum, and we anticipate this sustained growth trajectory will carry through the remainder of the year. Our team remains focused on continuing to implement the CompoSecure Operating System ('COS') throughout the business and we are beginning to see these ongoing efforts yield results.' Mr. Wilk added, 'We delivered record results for Arculus, generating another net positive contribution in Q1 as we are seeing metal card customers beginning to future-proof their offerings by bundling Arculus Authenticate with payment capabilities. As previously stated, we expect a net positive contribution for the full year as Arculus remains a powerful differentiator that sets CompoSecure apart in the digital asset and evolving Web3 payments landscape.' Dave Cote, CompoSecure's Executive Chairman, stated: 'I am pleased with our first quarter results and with the team's continued engagement implementing COS. Our metal cards enhance brand loyalty and deliver accelerated returns for our customers through superior acquisition, spending, and retention. As more issuers recognize the value our products deliver, we see significant opportunities for continued growth and are planting seeds through strategic investments to execute on the market opportunity we see while leveraging the COS to enhance efficiency and execution. Taken together, we are excited about the work at CompoSecure and believe the Company is well positioned for the remainder of 2025.' Financial ResultsAs a result of the spin-off of Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. ('Resolute Holdings') on February 28, 2025 and the execution of the management agreement with Resolute Holdings, CompoSecure is required to account for the operating results of its wholly owned operating subsidiary, CompoSecure Holdings L.L.C. ('CompoSecure Holdings'), under the equity method in accordance with U.S. GAAP, effective February 28, 2025. The GAAP results presented below reflect the consolidated operating results of CompoSecure from January 1, 2025 to February 27, 2025 and the subsequent conversion to the equity method presentation from February 28, 2025 to March 31, 2025. For clarity of comparisons and to best reflect the financial results associated with the standalone payment card and Arculus business, the Company is also presenting the full first quarter on a historical consolidated basis under the 'Non-GAAP Results' heading below. 1Q 2025 1Q 2024 Accounting Treatment GAAP Non-GAAP GAAP Non-GAAP Net Sales ($ in millions) $59.8 $103.9(1) $104.0(1) $104.0(1) Gross Profit ($ in millions) $28.70 $54.50(1) $55.20(1) $55.20(1) Gross Margin (%) 48.1 52.5(1) 53.1(1) 53.1(1) Pro-Forma Adjusted EBITDA ($ in millions) $33.7(2) $34.5(2) EPS/Adjusted EPS – Diluted $0.07 $0.25 $0.17 $0.24 Cash ($ in millions) $9.5 $71.7(1,3) $55.1(1,4) $55.1(1,4) Total Debt ($ in millions) $195.0(3) $335.6(4) (1) Refers to a Consolidated Non-GAAP Measure. For 1Q24, Net Sales, Gross Profit, Gross Margin, and Cash are identical on a GAAP and Non-GAAP basis, because such measures have historically been shown on a consolidated basis; (2) Pro-Forma Adjusted EBITDA in the table includes (~$3.2mm) expense in both 1Q25 and 1Q24. This expense represents a full quarter of management fees due to Resolute Holdings. The adjustment was made to allow for comparability across periods. The actual payment to Resolute Holdings in 1Q25 was $1.1mm because the contract has been effective since February 28th spin-off. $0 were paid in 1Q24 because Resolute Holdings did not exist. Please see Statement of Operations on page 9 for full reconciliation. (3) As of March 31, 2025. (4) As of March 31, 2024. GAAP Results: Q1 2025 Financial Highlights (vs. Q1 2024) Important Note: These GAAP results reflect the consolidation of CompoSecure Holdings, L.L.C. through February 27, 2025, and the application of equity method accounting beginning February 28, 2025, following the completion of the Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. spin-off. Net Sales: Net Sales in CompoSecure Inc., were $59.8 million from January 1, 2025 through February 27, 2025; and Net Sales of CompoSecure Holdings were $44.1 million from February 28, 2025 through March 31, 2025 (which is reflected in the Company's financial statements as an equity method investment from February 28, 2025). Net Income: Net Income was $21.5 million compared to $17.1 million in the year-ago period. Earnings Per Share: EPS attributable to Class A common shareholders was $0.21(Basic) and $0.07(Diluted) compared to $0.20 (Basic) and $0.17 (Diluted) in the year-ago period. The increase was primarily driven by non-cash gains related to the revaluation of warrant and earnout liabilities. Non-GAAP Results: Q1 2025 Financial Highlights (vs. Q1 2024) Consolidated Net Sales: Consolidated Net Sales were $103.9 million compared to $104.0 million in the year-ago period. Consolidated Gross Profit: Consolidated Gross Profit was $54.5 million or 52.5% of Net Sales, compared to $55.2 million or 53.1% in the year-ago period. The decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by product mix. Adjusted Net Income Adjusted Net Income increased 21% to $28.4 million compared to $23.3 million in the year-ago period. Adjusted Earnings Per Share: Adjusted Earnings Per Share was $0.28 (Basic) and $0.25 (Diluted) compared to $0.29 (Basic) and $0.24 (Diluted) in the year-ago period. Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA: Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA was $33.7 million compared to $34.5 million in the year-ago period, with the decrease primarily due to higher general and administrative expenses due to growth investments. Financial Condition GAAP Financial Condition: At March 31, 2025, CompoSecure had $9.5 million of cash and cash equivalents. The Company's liquidity needs are expected to be met with funding from the operations of CompoSecure Holdings. Non-GAAP Financial Condition: At March 31, 2025, CompoSecure had $71.7 million of cash and cash equivalents and $195.0 million of total debt, resulting in net debt of $180.7 million. This compares to cash and cash equivalents of $55.1 million and total debt of $335.6 million at March 31, 2024. CompoSecure's bank agreement senior secured debt leverage ratio was 1.05x at March 31, 2025 compared to 1.34x at March 31, 2024. Additional Highlights Vertical industry successes for Arculus include MetaMask (crypto payments), MoneyGram (cross-border payment services), and Circular (healthcare). 2025 Financial Outlook CompoSecure is reiterating its previously issued full year 2025 guidance, which calls for mid-single digit growth in both Consolidated Net Sales and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA with sales momentum building through the year. This guidance includes payment of the Resolute Holdings management fee in 2025 and 2024, on a pro forma basis.

These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of management. Although CompoSecure believes that its plans, intentions, and expectations reflected in or suggested by these forward-looking statements are reasonable, CompoSecure cannot assure you that it will achieve or realize these plans, intentions, or expectations. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Generally, statements that are not historical facts, including statements concerning CompoSecure's possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events, or results of operations, are forward-looking statements. In some instances, these statements may be preceded by, followed by, or include the words 'believes,' 'estimates,' 'expects,' 'projects,' 'forecasts,' 'may,' 'will,' 'should,' 'seeks,' 'plans,' 'scheduled,' 'anticipates' or 'intends' or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. You should not put undue reliance on these statements which speak only as of the date hereof. You should understand that the following important factors, among others, could affect CompoSecure's future results and could cause those results or other outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in CompoSecure's forward-looking statements: the ability of CompoSecure to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers, compete within its industry and retain its key employees; the possibility that CompoSecure may be adversely impacted by other global economic, business, competitive and/or other factors, including tariffs; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against CompoSecure or others; future exchange and interest rates; changes in our accounting and/or financial presentation; and other risks and uncertainties, including those under 'Risk Factors' in filings that have been made or will be made with the Securities and Exchange Commission. CompoSecure undertakes no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Due to the spin-off of Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. and the resulting shift to equity method accounting under GAAP beginning February 28, 2025, CompoSecure is presenting a broader set of non-GAAP measures, including an Adjusted Statement of Operations (Unaudited), an Adjusted Balance Sheet (Unaudited), Consolidated Net Sales, Consolidated Gross Profit, Consolidated Gross Margin, Consolidated Total Cash, Consolidated Net Debt and related measures, to provide investors with financial information that we believe allows for greater comparability with our historical financial presentation and better represents the underlying performance of the standalone business across reporting periods. This press release also includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ('GAAP') and that may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. CompoSecure believes EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS, Consolidated Net Sales, Consolidated Gross Profit, Consolidated Gross Margin, Consolidated Total Cash, Consolidated Net Debt and related measures are useful to investors in evaluating CompoSecure's financial performance. Specifically, we believe EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA provide valuable insight into operational efficiency independent of capital structure and tax environment; Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS offer investors a clearer view of ongoing profitability by excluding non-recurring and non-operational items; and Consolidated Net Sales, Consolidated Gross Profit, Consolidated Gross Margin, Consolidated Total Cash, Consolidated Net Debt and related measures provide greater comparability with CompoSecure's historical results, following the change in accounting presentation required as a result of the spin-off of Resolute Holdings. CompoSecure uses these non-GAAP measures internally to establish forecasts, budgets and operational goals to manage and monitor its business, as well as evaluate its underlying historical performance and/or measure incentive compensation. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures depict the true performance of the business by encompassing only relevant and controllable events, enabling CompoSecure to evaluate and plan more effectively for the future. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS, Consolidated Net Sales, Consolidated Gross Profit, Consolidated Gross Margin, Consolidated Total Cash, Consolidated Net Debt and related measures should not be considered as measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and the items excluded from these measures are significant components in understanding and assessing CompoSecure's financial performance. Accordingly, these key business metrics have limitations as an analytical tool. They should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of CompoSecure's liquidity. These non-GAAP measures may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Additionally, CompoSecure's debt agreements contain covenants based on variations of these measures for purposes of determining debt covenant compliance. CompoSecure believes that investors should have access to the same set of tools that its management uses in analyzing operating results. Please refer to the tables below for the reconciliation of GAAP measures to these non-GAAP measures. Due to the forward-looking nature of the financial guidance included above, the charges excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures, including with respect to depreciation, amortization, interest, and taxes that would be required to reconcile the non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures are inherently uncertain or difficult to predict, so it is not feasible to provide accurate forecasted non-GAAP reconciliations without unreasonable effort.
