SAN DIEGO, Oct. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Shareholder rights law firm Robbins LLP reminds investors that a class action was filed on behalf of all persons and entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Ryde Group Ltd (NYSE: RYDE) securities between March 6, 2024 and September 11, 2024, inclusive (the "Class Period"). RYDE operates a mobility platform offering ride-hailing and transportation-related services.

The lawsuit alleges that Ryde's stock price was artificially inflated through a stock-promotion campaign and that defendants failed to disclose the alleged activity to investors.

Investors who suffered significant losses during the Class Period may be eligible to participate in the lawsuit and should contact Robbins LLP prior to the November 9, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline.

Why Was RYDE Sued?

The complaint alleges that, during the Class Period, defendants failed to disclose to investors that:

(1) RYDE was the subject of a fraudulent stock promotion scheme involving social media-based misinformation and impersonated financial professionals;

(2) insiders and/or affiliates used offshore or nominee accounts to facilitate the coordinated dumping of shares during a price inflation campaign;

(3) RYDE's public statements and risk disclosures omitted any mention of the false rumors and artificial trading activity driving the stock price; and

(4) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants' positive statements about the Company's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

Why Did RYDE Stock Drop?

Plaintiff alleges that in the weeks and months leading up to the collapse, RYDE's share price surged from an initial public offering ("IPO") price of $4.00 to an all-time high of $22.49 despite no fundamental changes to the Company or news to justify the spike. Plaintiff further alleges that Investigations and public reports revealed that RYDE utilized social media to orchestrate an illicit "pump-and- dump" promotion scheme to defraud investors. These reports detail how impersonators claiming to be legitimate financial advisors touted RYDE in online forums, chat groups, and through social media posts with sensational but baseless claims to create a buying frenzy among retail investors.

However, on September 11, 2024, RYDE's share price abruptly crashed approximately 75%, to $5.50. Since then, the Company's share price has rapidly declined to approximately $0.50.

Who May Be Eligible to Participate in the RYDE Class Action?

The lawsuit seeks to represent investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Ryde Group Ltd securities between March 6, 2024 and September 11, 2024. Investors who suffered losses during that period may have legal rights under the federal securities laws.

What Is a Lead Plaintiff?

The lead plaintiff is a court-appointed investor who represents the interests of all class members throughout the litigation. Shareholders who wish to lead the case should contact Robbins LLP before the November 9, 2026, lead plaintiff deadline.

Serving as lead plaintiff is not required to share in any potential recovery. Investors who do not seek appointment may remain absent class members if the case proceeds and later resolves successfully.

Does It Cost Anything to Participate?

No. Robbins LLP represents investors on a contingency fee basis.

Why Robbins LLP?

A recognized leader in shareholder rights litigation, Robbins LLP has helped restore more than $2 billion in value to shareholders and secured some of the largest recoveries in shareholder derivative litigation history.

"Companies have an obligation to provide investors with complete and accurate information so that markets can function fairly and efficiently," said Brian J. Robbins, Founding Partner of Robbins LLP.

Reported loss per share of ($1.32), and adjusted earnings per share, excluding certain tax impacts, of $0.36

Announced intent to join the Atlantic and Pacific Joint International Businesses with oneworld and global partners

New service to Osaka and Papeete expands Seattle's nonstop international network to 9 of 15 planned routes by 2030

SEATTLE, Oct. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Alaska Air Group (NYSE: ALK) today reported financial results for the third quarter ending September 30, 2026.

"At Investor Day, we laid out a clear strategy for building a stronger, more diversified business, and we're executing it: growing premium, international, cargo and Atmos Rewards, and investing in the guest experience," said Alaska Air Group CEO Ben Minicucci. "Those are the things that earn guest loyalty, diversify our revenue and ultimately drive stronger earnings. While we're not satisfied with this quarter's result or the $1.8 billion fuel headwind this year, we are confident in our ability to execute on the things we can control, including increasing the spread between unit revenue and unit costs excluding fuel."

Quarter in Review:

Air Group reported third quarter Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) pretax margin of 0.4% and GAAP net loss of ($147) million, or ($1.32) per share. Air Group's third quarter adjusted pretax margin was 1.1% and adjusted net loss was ($35) million, or ($0.31) per share. Excluding certain tax impacts, Air Group's third quarter adjusted net income was $49 million, or $0.36 per share.

Third quarter results were driven by strong underlying commercial momentum despite a significant fuel headwind. Revenue increased 14% year-over-year to $4.3 billion on 2.4% capacity growth, resulting in unit revenue growth of nearly 12%, despite Hawaiʻi headwinds, pressure from strategic growth markets investments, and rapid international expansion. Yield improved through the quarter, with September yield increasing approximately 17% year-over-year.

Air Group's diversified revenue, which represents operating revenue outside the main cabin, has grown to 54% of total revenue, reflecting progress against our strategic initiatives as we shift towards a more structurally resilient business. Premium revenue grew approximately 25% and represented more than 36% of total revenue, loyalty program cash remuneration grew 21% to $721 million, and managed corporate revenue increased 30%. Air Group continued to expand its international network, with the additions of Paris, Athens, Osaka, and Papeete, bringing our Seattle international network to nine routes.

During the third quarter, the Company reduced its estimated annual effective tax rate (AETR) following a change in its full-year outlook from pretax income to a pretax loss, driven primarily by elevated fuel prices. As a result, the Company recorded a cumulative catch-up adjustment related to tax benefits recognized on first-half losses, which reduced third quarter adjusted earnings per share by ($0.67). Excluding this adjustment, third quarter adjusted earnings per share were $0.36.

Fourth Quarter Forecast Information:

Looking ahead, demand remains healthy, with commercial momentum continuing into the fourth quarter. Air Group expects capacity to grow approximately 1% to 1.5% year-over-year, with the increase concentrated in international flying. Unit revenue is expected to increase in the low double digits year-over-year and improve sequentially on a gross basis, supported by continued yield strength. Non-fuel unit costs are expected to increase in the mid-single digits, reflecting lower capacity growth.

Elevated fuel costs are expected to remain a significant headwind to near-term profitability, with our guidance assuming a fourth quarter economic fuel cost of $4.65 to $4.85 per gallon, or $650 million higher than our initial plan. For the full year, we now expect an adjusted loss per share between ($5.50) and ($5.00), inclusive of $1.8 billion in fuel expense above our plan.

Commercial Updates:

- Announced intent to join the Atlantic and Pacific Joint International Businesses with oneworld and global partners, broadening international connectivity for guests and increasing access to premium worldwide travel opportunities.

- Unveiled Aurora and Leihōkū by Alaska and Hawaiian, new premium guest experiences designed to elevate travel, featuring spacious lie flat suites, access to exclusive check-in and concierge services, and elevated dining options. Aurora will be featured on Alaska's Boeing 787 fleet and select transcontinental routes operated by new 737-10 MAX aircraft, while Leihōkū will be featured on Hawaiian's A330 fleet.

- Introduced Premium Reserve, a new premium economy product set to debut in 2028 on Alaska's 787-9, 787-10 and select 737-10 MAX aircraft and on Hawaiian's A330 fleet, offering guests enhanced comfort, space, and choice on longer flights.

Loyalty Updates:

- Loyalty program cash remuneration grew 21% to $721 million in the third quarter.

- Beginning in October, Atmos Rewards members can choose how they earn points and status points - by distance traveled, price paid, or segments flown - on flights departing on or after January 1, 2027.

- Announced enhancements to Atmos Rewards, including expanded card offerings with the launch of an Atmos debit card in early 2027, four new Atmos communities, and additional program partnerships.

- Launched new and improved benefits for Huakaʻi by Hawaiian members, including two free checked bags for Neighbor Island travel and additional ways to earn Atmos Rewards points.

Network Updates:

- Announced new nonstop service from Seattle to Athens, Paris, Osaka, and Papeete beginning in spring 2027, further strengthening our position as Seattle's largest international carrier.

- Announced domestic route expansions, including new routes from Portland to Steamboat Springs, San Diego to Loreto, Mexico and Paine Field to San Jose, alongside increased service from Paine Field to Portland, San Diego and Los Angeles.

Liquidity Updates:

- Generated $755 million of operating cash flow during the first nine months of 2026.

- Held $3.3 billion in available liquidity, including unrestricted cash, marketable securities, and undrawn credit facilities.

- Had approximately $20 billion of unencumbered assets at September 30, 2026, including 134 aircraft and the unencumbered portion of our loyalty program assets.

The intimate tastings, held every Tuesday and Thursday at 5 p.m., will feature these exclusively auction-grade wines awarded a perfect score (of the many millions of wines in the world only 0.1- 0.3% will ever achieve this prestigious judges' ranking). Each star Sommelier-led experience will welcome no more than six staying guests, on a first-booked first-access basis, offering an exceptionally rare opportunity to experience some of the world's most coveted bottles in a private, unhurried setting. The experience is offered as an entirely gifted privilege to eligible guests of Kat Florence Hotel, where extraordinary hospitality has become as much a signature as the world-record-breaking gemstones of its founder, internationally celebrated artist Kat Florence. 

"Some of my most memorable evenings have been spent around a table with a remarkable bottle and the people I love" describes Florence. "I wanted to create a space where my guests could have that same experience. Elizabeth, my personal sommelier, pours for them just as she pours for me: something extraordinary, along with its story, in an intimate room. It is included in every stay, because the finest things in life are meant to be shared."

Leading the experience is Elizabeth Davies, Kat Florence's personal Sommelier and rare wine hunter, whose expertise in sourcing exceptional bottles from the world's best auctions brings a new dimension to the hotel's celebrated guest experiences.

With more than 20 years of experience in luxury hospitality, Davies has built her career around the discovery, curation and appreciation of extraordinary, rare wines. A Certified Sommelier through the Court of Master Sommeliers, Davies curates Kat's elite cellar collection, is a contributor to the Canadian Association of Professional Sommeliers' certification curriculum, teaches professional wine education at George Brown and more. Her widely known expertise has been featured on Breakfast Television, CHCH, The SOMM Journal, House & Home and many others.

"It's both an honour and a wild adventure to have what can only be described as the greatest sommelier position on Earth," says Davies. "As Kat Florence's personal sommelier, my role is much like that of her in-house gem hunter, but instead of rare gemstones, I'm searching the world for extraordinary, ultra-rare, and 100-point wines. I get to hunt down bottles that most sommeliers and wine lovers only dream of experiencing. What makes this opportunity even more remarkable is that Kat doesn't simply collect these treasures; she shares them with her guests, giving us the extraordinary privilege of experiencing and appreciating their greatness together."

The gifted, 5 p.m. elite wine tastings have been thoughtfully timed by Kat Florence to precede another famously signature house experience: the elaborate, multi-course celebrity Chef tasting dinners included with every night of every guest's stay.

Joining the hotel's esteemed fleet of star chefs this month is Chef Shai-Ann Tyson, winner of the 2023 Garland Canada Culinary Competition (where she became the first woman of colour to claim the title), top finalist of Top Chef Canada Season 12, and Canadian regional finalist for the 2026– 2027 S.Pellegrino Young Chef Academy Competition. Her achievements also include competing in the Bocuse d'Or Canada National Selection, and contributing to the Bocuse d'Or Team Canada Research & Development group.

Tyson joins a distinguished culinary collection that includes internationally acclaimed chefs Anthony Bish, Marc Collyer, Dale Mackay and Neill Anthony, whose careers have taken them into Michelin-starred kitchens, royal family households and the private dining rooms of some of the world's richest and most celebrated figures.

Unlike traditional luxury hotel dining, every stay at Kat Florence Hotel includes an opulent tasting dinner prepared by one of its rotating celebrity chefs, with the identity of the evening's chef and the menu itself part of the surprise. The addition of Tyson introduces a fresh creative perspective to this already exceptional culinary offering, where each evening promises an experience that cannot simply be ordered from a menu. 

The new wine and culinary experiences continue Kat Florence's distinctive approach to hospitality, where rare artistry, highly personalized service and extraordinary generosity come together in an intimate historic setting in Elora, Ontario. From museum-worthy, multimillion- dollar gemstones displayed within the hotel's original 1848 limestone walls to nightly celebrity chef dinners and now access to some of the world's most valuable wines, the experience is designed around moments that few travellers will ever encounter.

Adding to the magic of the season, the Elora Christmas Market, presented by Kat Florence, returns November 14 through Christmas Day, once again transforming the historic village into one of the country's most popular festive holiday destinations. The artisanal, European chalet market and it's 100,000+ spectacular lights will welcome visitors Wednesday through Sunday, from noon to 8 p.m., offering another reason to discover Elora during one of its most enchanting times of year.

The Kat Florence 100-Point Elite Auction Wine Tastings begin October 20, 2026, and take place Tuesdays and Thursdays at 5 p.m. Each complimentary experience is limited to six staying guests, with advance reservations made for the tastings via their personal hotel concierge.

The Article Outlines the Key Stages of a Whole-Home Renovation, From Initial Planning and Permits to Construction and Final Finishes.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C., Oct. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- What should homeowners expect during a full home remodel? A HelloNation article answers this question by explaining the major remodeling phases, construction timelines, and preparations involved in a whole-house renovation.

The article features insights from Remodeling Expert Brian Ward of Ward Construction & Remodeling in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. It explains how understanding each stage of a home remodel in Winston-Salem can help homeowners prepare for construction and manage expectations throughout the project.

The HelloNation article begins with the design and planning phase, which establishes the foundation for the renovation. Homeowners and contractors review project goals, evaluate existing conditions, and develop budgets. In older Winston-Salem homes, assessing plumbing, electrical, and structural systems may require additional planning time.

The article explains that permitting is another important step before construction begins. Structural changes and certain plumbing or electrical improvements generally require building permits and approvals. Because processing times vary, homeowners should account for potential delays when developing their home remodeling timeline.

Once homeowners secure the necessary permits, demolition begins. The article describes how removing walls, flooring, cabinets, and outdated materials can temporarily disrupt daily routines. Dust, noise, and limited access to certain rooms are common during this stage.

Following demolition, contractors begin structural work and rough-in installations. These remodeling phases may include framing adjustments, plumbing upgrades, electrical wiring, and HVAC improvements. The article notes that crews must complete required inspections before covering certain systems with finished walls.

The HelloNation article also addresses unexpected conditions that may emerge during construction. Older homes can contain hidden issues that become visible only after demolition. Discovering damaged materials or outdated systems may require schedule and budget adjustments.

After rough-in work and inspections, the renovation moves into insulation and drywall installation. During this phase, rooms begin to take shape as walls close in and surfaces are prepared. However, drying times and finishing requirements can make visible progress seem slower than homeowners expect.

The article then examines the finishing stages of a home remodel in Winston-Salem. Cabinet installation, painting, flooring, lighting, plumbing fixtures, and appliances help transform construction spaces into usable rooms. Material availability and installation schedules can still affect completion dates during these final steps.

According to the article, communication between homeowners and contractors remains important throughout the renovation. Regular updates can help families understand scheduling changes, upcoming decisions, and potential disruptions. Clear expectations also support better planning when construction activities overlap.

The article discusses how homeowners may need to adjust their living arrangements during a whole-house renovation. Temporary kitchens, alternate sleeping spaces, or other accommodations can help families manage periods when essential rooms are unavailable. Preparing for these disruptions can make the remodeling experience more manageable.

Remodeling Expert Brian Ward is featured in the article's explanation of how each construction phase depends on the work completed before it. Planning, permits, demolition, inspections, and finishing activities all contribute to the overall project timeline.

The HelloNation article concludes that understanding the full renovation process helps homeowners make informed decisions and prepare for potential delays. Knowing what happens from planning through completion provides a clearer picture of the time, coordination, and flexibility involved.

What to Expect During a Full Home Remodel in Winston-Salem — From Start to Finish features insights from Brian Ward, Remodeling Expert of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, in HelloNation.

Raised by a single mother of six, Eno put herself through college and built a career as a mathematician and radar engineer before launching a multimillion-dollar medical billing company from her kitchen table, serving more than 100 physicians and creating work-from-home career opportunities for professional mothers. Today, she leads Prayers Are Answered Inc., a healthcare and core services brokerage in Madison, Alabama, that helps individuals, families, and businesses reduce healthcare and everyday living expenses without sacrificing quality or care. In 2021, she founded the Alabama Leading Ladies Chapter of ABWA to help women connect, grow professionally, and develop leadership skills.

"Anita is an inspiration to ABWA and to all women in the workplace" said Elizabeth H. Johnson, CAE, Executive Director of ABWA. "She built a business that gave working mothers a path forward, and she founded a chapter so more women could grow as leaders. That's the heart of this award, and it's why she's our 2027 American Business Woman of the Year."

"Being named the 2027 American Business Woman of the Year is one of the greatest honors and most humbling blessings of my life," said Eno. "I do not see this award simply as a recognition of what I have accomplished, but as a greater responsibility to serve, mentor, encourage, and open doors for other women. My greatest joy is not in the dreams I have achieved, but in the dreams that I can inspire in others."

Founded in 1949, ABWA empowers women in business through leadership development, education, networking, and national recognition. For more information, visit abwa.org.

Why This Report Matters

- Separates surface-active emulsifiers from gums and other food stabilizers to support comparable market sizing.

- Tracks ingredient supplier consolidation and the commercial effects of purity and traceability requirements.

- Helps food processors and ingredient manufacturers evaluate bakery demand, application support and price sensitivity.

Market Overview

Food emulsifiers help maintain stable mixtures and influence the interaction of fat, water, starch and air in processed foods. Bakery producers use mono- and diglycerides to improve softness and shelf life, while lecithin and other specialty esters support chocolate, dairy desserts, sauces and beverages. Their value comes from performance at low dosage rather than the volume of the finished food.

Credence Research estimates consumption near 1.09 million metric tons in 2025. The market's growth is tied to industrial food processing in emerging economies and reformulation in mature markets. Producers with application laboratories can help customers reduce fat or simplify labels without sacrificing texture, giving technical support an important role in supplier selection.

Market Insights

- Mono- and diglycerides and derivatives represented 46.2% of 2025 product revenue.

- Sucrose esters are modeled to grow fastest at 6.20% annually.

- Asia Pacific led regional revenue at 31.5%, while Africa is modeled to grow fastest at 5.91%.

- Supplier consolidation is strengthening the position of oilseed processors and ingredient specialists with global sourcing and technical service.

Key Attributes

Segmentation

By type

Mono- and diglycerides and derivatives; lecithin; stearoyl lactylates; polyglycerol esters and PGPR; sorbitan esters and polysorbates; sucrose esters; others.

By region

Asia Pacific; Europe; North America; Latin America; Middle East; Africa.

Market Drivers and Growth Dynamics

Industrial bakery expansion is a key demand mechanism. Factory-produced bread and cakes must withstand mechanical handling, transportation and longer distribution cycles. Emulsifiers support dough performance, crumb structure and anti-staling, creating repeat ingredient demand as food production moves toward larger processing plants.

Reformulation offers a second opportunity. Food producers are seeking textures that remain acceptable with different fat levels, plant-based ingredients or altered recipes. Suppliers that can combine lecithin, emulsifier esters and enzyme systems may offer customers fewer ingredients and more consistent processing, although any clean-label claim depends on the final formula and jurisdiction.

Regional Analysis

Asia Pacific accounted for 31.5% of 2025 market value, supported by packaged bread, noodles, ice cream and beverages in China, India, Japan and Southeast Asia. Credence Research models 5.71% annual growth in the region.

Europe held 28.5%, with demand increasingly shaped by low-contaminant grades, traceability and mature food manufacturing. North America accounted for 27.0%, supported by industrial bakery, confectionery and reformulation.

Latin America held 8.0%, the Middle East 3.0% and Africa 2.0%. Africa has the highest modeled growth at 5.91%, but its small base means absolute demand remains concentrated in the three largest regions. All shares are Credence Research estimates.

Market Challenges

Vegetable oil prices influence emulsifier input costs, while customers often negotiate supply contracts that adjust with a delay. Producers must manage feedstock sourcing and maintain quality across batches. Regulatory purity requirements can raise analytical and documentation costs, particularly for mono- and diglycerides sold into Europe.

Consumer attention to processed-food ingredients adds uncertainty to demand for some emulsifier categories. Product developers must distinguish observational research from causal evidence and validate replacement recipes in commercial production before claiming equivalent performance.

Future Outlook

Credence Research expects demand growth to follow packaged food output in Asia Pacific, Latin America and Africa. Mono- and diglycerides should remain the largest category, while specialty esters and traceable lecithin may gain share where formulation performance and compliance justify premium pricing.

Competitive Landscape

Cargill, ADM, Bunge and Louis Dreyfus Company participate through oilseed processing, lecithin and functional ingredients. Palsgaard, Riken Vitamin, Taiyo Kagaku, Fine Organic Industries, Oleon, Sternchemie and Lasenor serve specialty ester and application markets. Kerry, Puratos and IFF participate in broader food ingredient and formulation systems. Bunge's 2026 purchase of IFF's lecithin assets expanded its ingredient portfolio; IFF should not be counted as the continuing owner of those divested businesses. Market shares by company are not disclosed.
