Theremin Demonstration by Miles Brown
Mon 31 AUG 2026, 7:00pm-9:00pm
Philharmonic Club, 21/F Skyway Centre, 23 Queen’s Road West, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong
Tickets: $100 per person. Walk-in accepted or register by email: info@ccohk.com

Space Fantasy features the theremin, an electronic instrument invented by the Russian scientist Léon Theremin in 1920. It is the only musical instrument in existence today that is played without physical contact. The player moves his/her hands around two protruding metal antennae. One antenna controls the frequency (or pitch), the other the amplitude (or volume), and both are motion sensitive. To form a musical line, the player moves his/her hands near the antennae and appears to find the notes from mid-air. The theremin’s eerie sound is often heard on movie soundtracks associated with aliens and science fiction themes. Famous examples include It Came from Outer Space (1953), The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951) and Tim Burton’s Mars Attacks! (1996). Miles Brown, a leading performer of the theremin, studied with theremin virtuoso Lydia Kavina, a direct relative of Theremin himself. He will give a demonstration on how this intriguing instrument works at the Philharmonic Club in Sheung Wan on 31 August 2026, 7:00pm to 9:00pm. Further Enquiries: 2864 2156.

JETCO Connect 2.0 drives Johor – Singapore collaboration to create new tourism offerings

Tourism businesses and industry partners invited to collaborate with JETCO as Visit Johor 2026 gathers momentum.


SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 12 August 2026 – Following the successful launch of JETCO Connect in 2025, Johor Economic, Tourism and Cultural Office Singapore (JETCO) is taking the next step with JETCO Connect 2.0, shifting the focus from introducing Johor’s tourism offerings to fostering cross-border collaboration.

As Visit Johor 2026 invites visitors to discover Johor through its diverse mix of cultural, nature, food and island experiences, JETCO Connect 2.0 focuses on the work behind the scenes – bringing together tourism stakeholders to develop and package these experiences into compelling travel offerings for the Singapore market.

Organised in collaboration with Tourism Johor and Tourism Malaysia, JETCO Connect 2.0 brings this collaboration to life through a series of activities:

  • 12–13 August – Familiarisation (FAM) Trip: Around 40 Singapore travel trade representatives, including travel agents, inbound operators, golf specialists and media, will explore Johor’s heritage, culture, eco-tourism, sports and urban attractions through a curated familiarisation programme.
  • 13 August – Tourism Product Development Workshop: Around 80 participants from Johor and Singapore will work together to develop tourism packages across themes such as heritage and culture, gastronomy, eco-tourism, sports tourism, golf, halal experiences and island tourism for the Singapore market.
  • 19 August – Partner Networking Session: JETCO leaders will reconnect with local operators in Singapore to present the tourism concepts developed during the workshop and discussion plans to bring them to market.

Redefining the Road Trip

One notable project that materialized from past discussions is Elevating Road Trip to Desaru. For years, the pristine beaches of Desaru Coast have beckoned Singaporeans seeking a quick, luxurious escape. The rise of world-class resorts has transformed the area into a premier destination. However, a glaring gap remained in the travel experience: the journey itself often lacked the refinement expected by guests bound for five-star accommodations.

Come 1st September 2026, the SVIP 27-Seater Daily Coach service will be launched. The 27-seater provides spacious seating, is equipped with individual USB charging point and offers strategic departure points from Tampines, Suntec City and Jurong East. From 01 Sep 2026 – 31 Oct 2026, bookings will be at $45/pax ($10 upgrade fee waived). More details can be found in Annex.

As JETCO continues to strengthen tourism links between Johor and Singapore, it welcomes tourism businesses, attractions, hotels, travel operators, industry associations and destination partners interested in exploring future collaborations.

Annex

The new SVIP fleet addresses the common pain points of overland travel, focusing entirely on passenger comfort and convenience.

Key Features of the SVIP Experience:

* Spacious Seating: The 27-seater configuration ensures ample legroom and personal space, a significant upgrade from standard, densely packed coaches. The seats are designed for relaxation, allowing travelers to start unwinding immediately.

* Modern Connectivity: Understanding the needs of the modern traveller, each seat is equipped with dedicated USB charging points. Whether you need to catch up on work, entertain the kids with a movie, or simply keep your devices juiced up for the weekend, power is always within reach.

Accessible Luxury: Strategic Departure Points

To cater to travelers across the island, the daily service operates from three strategically chosen departure points in Singapore:

1. Tampines: Serving the East, providing a convenient starting point for those living near Changi and the eastern heartlands.

2. Suntec City: Located in the heart of the city, offering easy access for urban dwellers and professionals heading straight from the office.

3. Jurong East: Ensuring that guests residing in the western part of Singapore have a hassle-free departure option without needing to cross the island first.

Allianz: Data center boom ushers in a new era of infrastructure risks and opportunities for insurers

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 12 August 2026 – Artificial intelligence is driving one of the largest infrastructure investment cycles in decades, but the rapid global build-out of data centers is also creating a new era of construction, operational, climate and insurance risks, according to the latest Allianz Commercial The data center construction boom: risks and claims trends report. Annual investment in data centers is projected to double from around US$500bn in 2024 to more than US$1trn as early as 2027. The investment opportunity extends far beyond server halls to electricity generation, grid infrastructure, cooling, networking, and semiconductors. According to Allianz Research, the US and China are expected to account for around 62% of new global capacity additions through 2030, but the next wave of investment is becoming increasingly global. In Europe, Germany, the UK and Ireland remain major markets, but faster expansion is expected in Spain, Finland and Denmark, where power availability and permitting conditions can be more favorable. Across Asia Pacific, excluding China, installed capacity is projected to increase from around 9GW today to more than 28GW by 2030, with Malaysia expected to grow more than tenfold.
AI is turning the latest generation of data centers from a specialist real estate asset into mission-critical infrastructure,” says Thomas Lillelund, CEO of Allianz Commercial. “The scale of investment is extraordinary and, as these centers evolve beyond traditional data storage to high-performance compute demands, success will increasingly depend on resilience: access to power, reliable supply chains, robust construction controls, as well as climate-aware site selection and insurance programs that reflect the true accumulation risk. Indeed, comprehensive insurance cover has become a prerequisite for financing many large-scale AI infrastructure projects.”

Resilience must be central to data center operations
The sector’s biggest constraints are increasingly physical rather than financial. Competitive advantage is increasingly determined by access to electricity, grid connections, permitting, specialized equipment and skilled labor. In the US alone, the construction industry faces a shortage of around 439,000 skilled workers, while an estimated 349,000 additional workers may be needed in 2026. Climate resilience is increasingly a strategic consideration rather than an operational afterthought. Around 79% of global data center capacity is already located in areas exposed to heightened natural catastrophe risk, while 54% is exposed to chronic heat and drought stress. Some of the fastest-growing AI infrastructure markets are also among the most climate-exposed, including Northern Virginia, US, Johor in Malaysia, and Marseille, France. Acute flood, wildfire and wind exposure is highest in the Americas, affecting 86% of capacity, while chronic heat and drought stress is greatest in Asia Pacific, where 89% of capacity is exposed.

Global data center insurance market will more than double by 2030
Insurance is evolving alongside the sector. As data centers assume a more critical role in infrastructure, comprehensive insurance cover has become a prerequisite for financing many large-scale AI infrastructure projects. Construction costs for a single AI campus can exceed US$20bn, with insured values rising substantially once high-performance computing equipment is installed. The global data center insurance market is projected to grow from around US$11bn today to more than US$24bn by 2030, reflecting rapid capacity expansion, rising insured values and increasing operational complexity. Demand is expected to extend beyond traditional property cover towards integrated solutions spanning construction, engineering, property, business interruption, cyber and liability, while also creating new opportunities in areas such as energy resilience, operational continuity, and technology risk.

Risk and claims trends: fire drives severity; water damage frequency
Allianz Commercial analysis of insurance industry data center-related claims shows that fire is the leading driver of loss severity, accounting for well over 50% of around €700mn (US$800mn) worth of losses. Natural catastrophe activity ranks second, followed by willful acts, which include crime and cyber incidents, followed by power failure. Water damage is the most frequent cause of data center claims, followed by willful acts, fire, and equipment breakdown. Business interruption is the primary driver of claims severity by line of insurance, highlighting the significant financial impact of operational downtime.

The data center risk profile is changing as facilities become larger, more complex, and more increasingly interdependent. Hyperscale and colocation of campuses can bring together multiple tenants, construction works, servers, supporting utilities and on-site infrastructure in one physical or operational space. A single event can therefore trigger claims across property, construction, business interruption, liability, cyber, and financial lines. Real-life claims case studies show that in hyperscale facilities, damage to external cooling systems, hot works-related fire damage, and a delay in start-up caused by power disturbances have each resulted in losses in the US$50mn to US$100mn range.

For insurers, the key question is not only the value of the building, but the concentration of value and dependency inside and around it. Power, cooling, batteries, fiber routes, testing and commissioning, and business continuity planning are all part of the same risk picture. Effective risk mitigation must begin early and continue throughout the data center lifecycle. Resilience must be designed in from the earliest planning stage,” explains Christian Kolbe, Global Head of Construction Claims at Allianz Commercial.

Clarity between policies essential to avoid ambiguity
Data center projects encompass different project phases with several stakeholders and interests involved, which can create complications. During the construction phase, stakeholders include the owner, developer, contractor, and subcontractors, whereas in the operational phase, the stakeholders include the owner-operator, and potentially multiple tenants or end users. For example, different policies could respond to a hot works-related fire resulting in damage to a data center nearing completion, and this would impact different stakeholders.

“Clarity is critical with an insurance claim,” says Charlotte Field, Regional Head of Short-tail Claims, Asia, at Allianz Commercial. “Clearly documented handovers are essential between your construction all-risk policy and operational policy. There must be no ambiguity about practical completion, in order to avoid disputes over which policy responds to a particular event and the extent of cover.”

Shama Responds to the Rise in Multi-City Living Among Today’s Professionals, Elevating Every Stay Beyond Accommodation with ‘The Joy of Living’


BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 12 August 2026 – Living between cities is fast becoming part of everyday life. People travel from elsewhere in Thailand to Bangkok for health checks and recovery; parents come to care for their children during term time or attend important family occasions; business travellers commute regularly for work; executives and expatriates relocate to begin new roles; and hybrid workers and specialists take on short-term assignments. As the boundaries between travel, work and everyday life continue to blur, accommodation is no longer simply a place to stay. It has become a space where guests can live comfortably, naturally and flexibly, maintaining their everyday routines much as they would at home.

Shama The Joy of Living (1)

Shama, the serviced apartment brand under ONYX Hospitality Group, a leading management company for hotels, resorts, serviced apartments and luxury residences across the Asia-Pacific region, responds to this evolving way of life through its ‘The Joy of Living’ philosophy. Shama believes that a fulfilling stay comes not only from a well-connected location, but also from an environment that enables guests to live and follow their daily routines in a way that feels true to who they are. Guests are also encouraged to experience the character of each neighbourhood and connect naturally with the surrounding community through a warm, friendly atmosphere and a genuine sense of belonging from the first day of their stay. This reflects Shama’s role as more than accommodation: it is a living space that helps each day unfold smoothly and meaningfully.

This philosophy is reflected across Shama properties in Thailand and overseas. Each is located in a neighbourhood with convenient connections to business districts, leading hospitals, international schools, public transport and key lifestyle destinations, and is surrounded by local restaurants, cafés, shops and communities. Guests can settle naturally into the rhythm of local life, whether staying for a few weeks, several months or many years, or moving to begin a new chapter in a different city.

In Thailand, for those looking to escape the bustle of the city while remaining within easy reach of Bangkok’s business districts, Shama Yen-Akat Bangkok offers the charm of a peaceful residential neighbourhood surrounded by local restaurants, shops and an established community. With convenient connections to Sathorn, Silom and Rama III, guests can enjoy a more relaxed pace of life while balancing work, leisure and everyday living. The property is also pet-friendly.

For those whose daily lives combine work with living in the heart of the city, Shama Lakeview Asoke Bangkok presents another side of city-centre living. Located in Asoke, one of Bangkok’s main transport hubs, the property is well connected by both BTS Skytrain and MRT, making everyday journeys easy and efficient. It is also surrounded by the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center, Terminal 21 and The EM District, while views over Benjakitti Park provide welcome moments of calm amid the energy of the city. The property is therefore well suited to business travellers, executives and families seeking the convenience of life in central Bangkok.

Meanwhile, Shama Sukhumvit Bangkok captures the energy of city-centre living, surrounded by restaurants, shopping destinations and key business districts. Its proximity to Bumrungrad International Hospital also makes it an ideal choice for guests travelling to Bangkok for work, health checks or time with family.

By contrast, Shama Sukhumvit 101 Bangkok offers a calm, welcoming residential atmosphere in the outer Sukhumvit area, which has been designated as one of Bangkok’s Creative Districts. Close to Cloud 11 and True Digital Park, hubs for young professionals and start-ups, the property offers convenient access via the BTS Skytrain and expressway. It is ideal for guests seeking a balance between work, relaxation and life in a warm, connected community, clearly reflecting Shama’s ‘Connected Neighbourhood’ philosophy.

For guests travelling to Bangkok for medical treatment or a temporary work assignment, Shama Petchburi 47 Bangkok offers comfort and convenience in a quiet yet well-connected residential neighbourhood. Located next to Bangkok Hospital and just five minutes from Phetchavej Hospital, it also provides easy access to Rama IX, Thonglor and Ekkamai. Guests can enjoy a relaxed way of life in peaceful surroundings while remaining close to the city’s main business districts.

Meanwhile, Shama Ekamai Bangkok offers a different perspective on urban living in the vibrant neighbourhoods of Ekkamai and Thonglor, surrounded by popular restaurants, cafés and lifestyle destinations. Despite its prime location, the property provides a peaceful, private retreat amid lush greenery, just minutes from the energy and convenience of Ekkamai and Sukhumvit. It also invites guests to discover the character of the local community, learn about the neighbourhood’s way of life and experience a genuine connection with the people who live there.

In addition, every Shama property offers Shama Social Club and Shama Friends, two lifestyle programmes that give guests opportunities to meet, share experiences and build relationships with neighbours and the surrounding community. By gradually becoming familiar with the people and everyday life of each neighbourhood, guests can feel part of the community from the very first day of their stay.

Creating experiences for diverse ways of life reflects ONYX Hospitality Group’s ‘More of What You Love’ philosophy, which focuses on delivering hospitality that meets the needs of travellers across different lifestyle segments. Through a portfolio of distinctive brands, ONYX elevates each stay beyond accommodation with benefits from ONYX Rewards, dining experiences from ONYX Dining, and services that connect guests with local people, communities and destinations, making every journey more meaningful.

As ONYX Hospitality Group marks its 60th anniversary, the company continues to develop its brands and guest experiences, offering a wider range of choices to meet the evolving needs of today’s travellers. Shama, meanwhile, continues to strengthen its role as more than a place to stay by creating spaces that connect people with local communities and fill every stay with the joy of everyday living under its ‘The Joy of Living’ philosophy.

Quantinuum and Oracle Partner to Accelerate Hybrid Quantum Compute Adoption on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

  • Quantinuum’s most advanced quantum computer, Helios, will be deployed in a US-based OCI AI data center to enable hybrid quantum-AI workloads as an OCI service.
  • Quantinuum and Oracle aim to support enterprise, AI lab, academic, and research applications spanning drug discovery, materials science, financial modeling, and large-scale optimization, including AI workloads.

BROOMFIELD, Colo. and AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Quantinuum (NASDAQ: QNT), a leading quantum computing company, and Oracle today announced a multi-year strategic partnership to bring quantum computing to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Under the partnership, OCI customers will be able to directly access Quantinuum’s Helios, the most accurate commercial quantum computer in the world,[1] through OCI’s quantum service, alongside OCI’s high-performance computing (HPC) and GPU infrastructure.

Together, Quantinuum and Oracle plan to explore how hybrid quantum-AI infrastructure could address some of the most computationally intensive challenges facing enterprises and broaden access for universities and research institutions advancing scientific discovery and education. The partnership reflects a shared vision that the future of enterprise computing will be built on the convergence of AI, classical supercomputing, and quantum computing. Many complex problems across materials discovery, drug development, logistics, energy, and financial modeling already push the limits of today’s computing architectures.

“We believe the next phase of enterprise computing will be shaped by bringing quantum, AI, and high-performance computing together,” said Dr. Rajeeb Hazra, President and CEO of Quantinuum. “Deploying Helios inside OCI gives Quantinuum and Oracle an opportunity to create a unique deeply integrated environment for hybrid workloads, explore enterprise use cases with customers, and accelerate commercial adoption.”

Quantum computing offers a fundamentally different approach to computation with the potential to address problems that are impractical for traditional systems alone. In addition, quantum computing uses significantly less energy than supercomputers. A single Helios system has an estimated power draw of less than one percent of the draw reported for leading supercomputers,[2] offering a lower power complementary resource for suitable hybrid workloads.

“AI has changed what organizations can imagine, and we believe quantum computing can expand what they’re able to solve,” said Mahesh Thiagarajan, Executive Vice President of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. “By bringing Quantinuum’s Helios to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, we want to give developers a practical and secure way to explore how quantum computing could complement their existing AI and HPC workloads on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure while improving compute efficiency and energy use.”

With Quantinuum’s Helios on OCI, customers can expect to gain managed, secure access to cloud-hosted quantum computing without having to procure, install, or operate dedicated hardware or specialized facilities. Helios, launched commercially in November 2025, is Quantinuum’s third-generation quantum computer. The 98-physical-qubit trapped-ion system has been used in demonstrations involving 48 logical qubits and achieves an average two-qubit gate fidelity of 99.921%, exceeding the widely cited “three 9s” threshold. Helios is designed for hybrid integration with classical HPC and AI environments.

By operating on-premises within OCI’s infrastructure, Helios is anticipated to be able to integrate seamlessly with existing OCI compute, networking, storage, identity, and data services under the same governance and access controls customers already use. Oracle plans to preview its OCI quantum service in the coming months, giving developers a streamlined way to move from simulation to execution on real quantum computing hardware. The planned OCI quantum service is expected to combine Quantinuum’s development stack with support for open-source hybrid-programming frameworks, helping developers build, test, and refine quantum-classical applications more efficiently.

New Possibilities for Hybrid Quantum-AI Computing

“Our roadmap includes exploring classical-quantum hybrid computing to accelerate scientific discovery,” said Johannes Blaschke, Head of Scientific Computing, GBI at Ellison Institute of Technology. “QPUs promise to unlock new insights as they are very different from the hardware that we are used to. So having both GPUs and QPUs available within OCI would provide an all-in-one platform, simplify the operation of novel hardware, and help us move at speed from concept to execution by allowing our researchers to focus on innovation. It could herald in an exciting new phase for our work.”

“As quantum computing moves closer to enterprise adoption, simplifying how organizations access and integrate quantum resources has become just as important as advancing the hardware itself,” said Heather West, PhD, Global Quantum Research Lead at IDC. “Deploying quantum systems within private cloud environments enables organizations to integrate quantum computing into existing AI and HPC workflows through familiar cloud infrastructure and development tools, reducing barriers to adoption and making hybrid quantum-classical computing a practical part of enterprise IT.”

An archived replay of the webcast will be made available on the Quantinuum Investor Relations website following the call and will remain available for one year. 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Quantinuum’s condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company uses the following non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release: Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Net Loss, fully distributed, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Net Loss Per Share, fully distributed.

Adjusted Gross Profit starts with GAAP gross profit and adds back equity compensation and related employer taxes attributable to cost of revenue and depreciation and amortization attributable to cost of revenue.

Adjusted Gross Margin is calculated as Adjusted Gross Profit divided by revenue, net.

Adjusted Net Loss, fully distributed starts with GAAP net loss on an as-converted basis, adds back GAAP income tax expense, adjusts for equity compensation and related employer taxes, costs of the initial public offering and the transition to public company reporting, the change in fair value of liability-classified warrants, and loss on disposal and write down of assets, and then applies an assumed statutory tax rate to the resulting adjusted pre-tax loss. No tax benefit is recognized in respect of losses subject to a full valuation allowance, and accordingly no tax benefit is reflected in the periods presented.

Adjusted EBITDA starts with Adjusted Net Loss, fully distributed, and further excludes interest income, net, depreciation, and amortization of acquired intangibles.

Adjusted Net Loss Per Share, fully distributed is calculated as Adjusted Net Loss, fully distributed, divided by adjusted shares, fully distributed, basic and diluted, comprising weighted-average Class A common shares outstanding and Common Units of Quantinuum Holdings.

Management believes these measures provide investors with additional information useful in evaluating the Company’s operating performance and trends across periods. Quantinuum’s results include large non-cash charges that do not reflect the cost of operating the business in the period, principally stock-based compensation recognized on completion of the Reorganization and remeasurement of liability-classified warrants. Both are driven by accounting triggers and external inputs rather than operating activity. As an early commercial-stage business, Quantinuum’s period-to-period results also are affected by the timing of individual contracts. Measures that isolate underlying operating performance from non-cash and transition items help investors assess trends across periods.

Quantinuum’s Up-C structure means that GAAP net loss attributable to Quantinuum Inc. reflects only the Class A share of the economics. Presenting adjusted results on an as-converted, fully distributed basis describes the whole economic enterprise, which is how management assesses performance and how the business is managed. Management uses these measures for internal planning and forecasting, evaluating operating performance, and preparing budgets.

These non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. They are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Quantinuum’s non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies and, therefore, may not be comparable. Investors should review the reconciliations and should not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.

Each non-GAAP financial measure is reconciled to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure in the tables at the end of this release.

(1) Our condensed consolidated statements of operations present amortization of acquired intangibles as a single separate line and do not present a gross profit subtotal. The amount shown in this table is the portion of that line attributable to cost of revenue, allocated according to the assets to which it relates. Cost of revenue is presented as reported. The remaining portion is presented within research and development.
(2) Represents stock-based compensation expense and the related employer payroll taxes on equity vesting, in each case attributable to cost of revenue. Employer payroll taxes were 242 and 242 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and 0 in the corresponding prior year periods. These amounts are a subset of the equity compensation and related employer taxes adjustment presented in the reconciliation of GAAP net loss.
(3) Represents depreciation of property and equipment and amortization of acquired intangible assets attributable to cost of revenue.

(1) The as-converted basis includes the economic interests represented by Class A common stock and Common Units of Quantinuum Holdings as if all Common Units were exchanged for Class A common stock. It is used because Class A common stock represents a minority of the economic interest in Quantinuum Holdings.
(2) Represents non-cash compensation expense associated with equity-based awards, including expense recognized in connection with the Reorganization, together with the related employer payroll taxes on equity vesting. Employer payroll taxes were $17,127 and $17,127 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and zero in the corresponding prior year periods. The stock-based compensation component agrees to the stock compensation expense line in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
(3) Represents costs of the initial public offering, transaction costs, and the transition to public company reporting. These costs represent professional fees for advisory, legal, accounting, valuation and other professional or consulting services incurred related to the IPO. These costs are scoped by reference to their cause and have a defined end. They do not include the ongoing costs of operating as a public company.
(4) Represents the non-cash change in fair value of liability-classified warrants, which is driven by valuation inputs and accounting remeasurement rather than operating activity.
(5) Represents the tax effect of the adjusted pre-tax loss using the assumed statutory tax rate presented in the table.
(6) Represents total depreciation and amortization per our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, less amortization of acquired intangibles shown separately below. Includes amortization of capitalized software.
(7) Represents total amortization of acquired intangible assets for the period and agrees to the amortization expense line in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
(8) The denominator comprises Class A common stock and all Common Units of Quantinuum Holdings. Class B common stock is non-economic, carries voting rights only, and is cancelled upon exchange of the corresponding Common Units.
(9) GAAP net loss per Class A common share covers only the period from June 5, 2026, following the Transactions, while adjusted net loss per share, fully distributed, covers the full period presented. The two measures therefore are not calculated on the same period basis. No per share amounts are presented for periods prior to the Reorganization because the calculation would not produce values meaningful to users.
