Lufax Granted Extension by NYSE for Filling the 2024 Annual Report on Form 20-F

SHANGHAI, Oct. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Lufax Holding Ltd (NYSE: LU and HKEX: 6623), (“Lufax”, or the “Company”), a leading financial services enabler for small business owners in China, today announced that the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) has granted the Company an extension through April 30, 2026 to file the Company’s annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 20-F”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, subject to reassessment on an ongoing basis.

The Company had previously reported that it would be delayed in its filing of the 2024 20-F due to the proposed change in the Company’s auditors in 2025 and announced that it had received notice from the NYSE that it was not fully in compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing standards. It has since appointed Ernst & Young and Ernst & Young Hua Ming LLP as its auditors. The Company continues to work diligently with its independent auditors to finalize and file the 2024 20-F as soon as possible.

The Company will continue to cooperate with the NYSE in this matter.  If the Company fails to file the 2024 20-F by April 30, 2026, suspension and delisting procedures will commence. The Company intends to regain compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing standards by filing the annual report within the NYSE’s prescribed timelines.

MILAN, Oct. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Enfinity Global, a leading renewable energy company, has signed an agreement with VW Kraftwerk GmbH, a subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group, for the supply of Guarantees of Origin (GOs) from its solar PV power plants in Italy.

The agreement provides for the purchase of approximately 40 GWh of GOs per year over the next ten years, for a total volume of 400 GWh, sourced from Enfinity’s renewable energy assets in Italy.

“Guarantees of Origin are a transparent and effective tool to promote renewable energy adoption and accelerate the energy transition,” added Julio Fournier Fisas, General Manager for Europe at Enfinity Global. “This collaboration is a strong example of how cross-sector partnerships can generate measurable environmental impact and drive progress toward climate neutrality in Europe.”

Through this deal, Enfinity Global reaffirms its role as a strategic partner for global companies seeking to integrate renewable energy solutions into their business models, actively contributing to the decarbonization of industrial supply chains and to the construction of a low-carbon, more resilient energy future. GOs not only certify the renewable origin of energy but also serve as a key element for ESG traceability and reporting, in line with European regulations and sustainability standards.

With a global presence and a pipeline of 37 GW, Enfinity Global is one of the leading players in the sector, offering integrated energy solutions for the decarbonization of industrial activities and advancing a circular economy.

LRS Output Management Announces Cloud-Based Print, Scan, and Auditing Suite

Solutions leverage proven LRS Mission Control platform

SPRINGFIELD, Ill., Oct. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Levi, Ray & Shoup, Inc. (LRS) today announced the availability of four new multi-tenant SaaS output management solutions. Based upon the web-based LRS Misson Control® platform introduced in 2023, the new solutions eliminate the need for on-premise servers and associated IT staff. The integrated suite of output management products will provide print management, pull print, scan services, and print auditing functionality— all in a seamless, serverless manner.

The VPSX/DirectPrint Cloud SaaS lets organizations manage drivers, printers, locations via floorplans, and all other aspects of workstation printing. Rather than relying on an onsite server, the VPSX/DirectPrint Cloud service directly interacts with LRS’ Personal Print Manager agent running on each user’s Windows,® macOS,® or Linux® workstation. By integrating control of user printing with backend application print and scan management functions, the solution establishes a single point of control that can streamline IT administration and lower FTE requirements in IT departments of all sizes. 

MFPsecure/Print Cloud pull printing software enables any user to print to a holding area and then release the job from a qualified MFP with a card, a code, or both (in a Multi-factor authentication scheme). Like other new multi-tenant SaaS solutions running in LRS’ Mission Control platform, MFPsecure/Print Cloud software integrates fully with the VPSX/DirectPrint Cloud service so administrators can easily define and configure their environment from a single screen. Full integration with LRS’ Personal Print Manager client gives users a simple method to define printers to a workstation and submit print.

The new MFPsecure/Scan Cloud SaaS enables the Scan functions on modern multi-function devices (MFPs) to work with LRS’ robust document workflow engine. Users can Scan to email or Scan to storage (OneDrive, Google Drive, File share etc.) as well as initiate complex workflows like scanning incoming invoices, extracting information via OCR, and automatically feeding scanned data into business applications. These and other customizable workflows unlock a fully digital workplace experience that increases productivity and automation.

The fourth new offering is the Innovate/Audit Cloud solution, which interacts with other LRS products to provide cost and accounting information about a company’s print environment. No onsite servers or databases are required, as all reporting to Innovate/Audit Cloud software is handled automatically. These reporting & auditing capabilities extend beyond the SaaS solutions described above to include tracking of output managed with LRS’ server-based solutions. This ability lets organizations with hybrid network environments and those transitioning to Cloud-based landscapes leverage the power of LRS analytics to make smarter choices with regard to their printing and scanning assets.

About LRS
LRS is a privately held U.S. company with corporate headquarters located in Springfield, Illinois, USA. Remote offices are located throughout the United States and in key geographic regions around the world. More than half of the Fortune 1000 companies rely on industry leading LRS® solutions, with products in use in over 30 countries. For more information about LRS, visit www.LRS.com

AIKO INTRODUCES THE WORLD’S FIRST 500W PANEL UNDER 2M² IN AUSTRALIA, SECURES 1GW IN DISTRIBUTOR COMMITMENTS FOR GEN 3 PRODUCTS

MELBOURNE, Australia, Oct. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — One month after its soft debut at Smart Energy Queensland, AIKO unveiled on 29 October the complete Gen 3 Infinite Series portfolio at All Energy Australia 2025, giving Australian customers greater choice and higher efficiency across residential, commercial and large-scale solar projects.

The showcase highlights AIKO’s new flagship NEOSTAR 3P 500W module, delivering a world-first 25% module efficiency in a standard format under 2m². This milestone represents a major leap in real-world energy performance and system value, reaffirming AIKO’s position as a leader in solar technology and manufacturing.

AIKO also announced the signing of a 1GW supply agreement with leading distributors Solar Juice, Tradezone, AC Solar Warehouse, Sol Distribution and Lawrence & Hanson. Covering deliveries of third-generation All Back Contact (ABC) Infinite Series modules across 2026–2028, the agreement reflects AIKO’s deep commitment to supporting the region’s accelerating demand for high-efficiency solar solutions.

“Back Contact technology has long been admired for its superior performance, yet its high cost has kept it out of reach for most everyday Australians,” said Thomas Bywater, Head of AIKO ANZ. “At AIKO, we believe advanced solar technology should not be an exclusive privilege. Our next-generation ABC products deliver world-class performance without the premium pricing, maximising returns for the families, businesses and communities who need it most.”

Innovation That Redefines What’s Possible

The breakthrough performance of Gen 3 is driven by AIKO’s patented Two-Step Passivation — a proprietary ABC cell process that independently optimises the n-type and p-type layers. This dual-layer approach removes conventional efficiency bottlenecks, unlocks higher conversion rates and enables Back Contact technology to move beyond the lab into true mass production.

Complementing this is AIKO’s Copper Interconnection, an industry-first that delivers higher conductivity, greater mechanical strength and more sustainable material sourcing. By replacing silver, one of the most expensive and limited inputs in traditional solar manufacturing, AIKO has addressed key cost bottlenecks while maintaining reliability and output.

Backed by gigawatt-level production capacity and stringent quality control, AIKO has redefined how premium efficiencies can be achieved affordably and sustainably, accelerating the industry’s ability to deliver greater value to customers.

Driving a New Era for Back Contact Solar

AIKO’s innovations in technology and manufacturing have made Back Contact (BC) solar more attainable than ever. With performance gains and cost reductions now aligning, BC is seeing rapid global uptake across residential, commercial and utility-scale segments. This momentum is not only advancing AIKO’s own growth but also catalysing a broader industry movement.

According to Dr Radovan Kopeček of ISC Konstanz, one of the world’s leading IBC research institutes, conventional front-contact technologies such as TOPCon could be overtaken by back-contact modules around 2027–2028, particularly as key IBC patents expire. (*) The growing investment by other Tier-1 manufacturers reinforces this trajectory, signalling a positive feedback loop where scale drives down costs and further accelerates adoption.

“As the industry moves toward Back Contact as the dominant technology pathway, AIKO’s manufacturing capability and distribution network position us to lead that transition in Australia,” added Bywater. “Our partners are now equipped to deliver next-generation solar technology with the scale and support that large projects demand.”

AIKO’s leadership exemplifies how targeted R&D and disciplined execution can accelerate the adoption of superior solar technology, one that is more efficient, more durable and more accessible for all.
