Amid a complex environment of mounting external pressures and internal challenges, China continued to advance high-quality development, with the overall economy maintaining stable performance and achieving steady progress. With stable economic growth, corporate demand for commercial space has increased. Coupled with accelerated urbanization and the development of new business districts, demand for commercial properties has continued to rise, supporting the growth of commercial property management and leasing activities. In addition, the Chinese government has introduced a series of favourable policies for the commercial real estate sector, focusing on inventory digestion and optimization of industry planning, thereby providing further support to the property management and leasing industry.The Group’s managed properties mainly comprise commercial assets. Despite macroeconomic conditions and market competition, tenancy arrangements, lease agreements and occupancy rates remained stable in 2025. However, rental levels for newly signed leases were lower than in previous periods. To mitigate the pressure arising from rental adjustments, the Group will continue to enhance customer satisfaction by incorporating value-added services into new lease agreements, including property maintenance and upkeep, facilities management and community event planning.The Group’s existing properties are primarily located in Chengdu, Sichuan and Kunming, Yunnan—two key regional cities—and comprise three commercial buildings: Everbright Financial Center, Everbright International Mansion and Ming Chang Building.

In recent years, the Group has successfully introduced tenants from emerging sectors such as software and technology, while also offering digitalised services to tenants. Looking ahead, the Group will continue to promote diversified business development and strive to attract more high-quality commercial tenants.In addition, the further escalation of the situation in the Middle East in March 2026 has led to rising energy prices, heightened inflation expectations and slower economic growth, all of which are core factors affecting overseas investment decisions. Accordingly, the Group will carefully reassess its asset allocation and regional risks with respect to its overseas investment plans. Despite the current significant volatility in the global economy, the Group will adhere to the principle of prudent operation, flexibly seize investment windows, and ensure the safety of capital operations.The Group continues to leverage technology to advance smart property management, enhance operational efficiency and elevate the customer experience.

It is not the first time the Danish Royal Family has been close to NanoNord - the company was originally officially inaugurated by a then-young Crown Prince Frederik.Danish Technology Measures Lithium in Real TimeNanoNord's flagship technology, Tveskaeg, is an MR-based measurement instrument that enables precise real-time measurement of lithium and a range of other elements. The technology is wireless, uses neither chemicals nor disposable materials, and requires minimal calibration and maintenance - making it robust, green, and operationally reliable.ElectraLith uses Tveskaeg instruments as a central part of their groundbreaking DLE-R technology for lithium extraction. DLE (Direct Lithium Extraction) is a new and far more sustainable method for extracting lithium - a critical metal in the batteries powering the green transition. The full potential of the collaboration is up to DKK 10 million over the coming years, as ElectraLith rolls out its technology globally.The two companies connected in Melbourne during the Danish Industry reception 'An Evening in the Name of Business, Sport and Danish Dynamite,' and further strengthened ties during a meeting at ElectraLith's headquarters following the conclusion of the official business delegation.A Happy Customer on the Other Side of the Globe"Tveskaeg is an essential part of our DLE-R system and we are delighted with our partnership with Martin and the NanoNord team. Each DLE-R unit will include a Tveskaeg system to measure lithium and the order of additional units highlights its importance to our operations, particularly as we prepare for rapid global deployment to meet burgeoning demand lithium.Our existing two systems perform flawlessly and intuitively - so much so that our team has named them Forky and Hilda (after King Sweyn ‘Forkbeard' Tveskaeg and his wife). This is our second major order, in what we expect to be many."- Charlie McGill, CEO, ElectraLith"There is nothing better than visiting a customer on the other side of the globe and seeing our technology in use with happy customers like Charlie and his team. Our talented employees back at Skjernvej in Aalborg deserve the credit for the technology simply working and the customers being happy. That we can also bring home an order for additional instruments naturally makes me extra pleased."- Martin Mindorf, CCO, NanoNord"It is a great honour to be part of the historic state visit to Australia, and we are honoured by the attention from especially H.M. the Queen on this trip. The Queen quickly understood the potential of the technology in Australia and asked curiously about how Tveskaeg is used in connection with lithium extraction. NanoNord and ElectraLith are a great example of how our countries can work together, and there is great potential out here, particularly for the extraction of metals that are critical for the green transition. Beyond ElectraLith, we also have several exciting customers and prospects that we need to come back for."- Martin Mindorf, CCO, NanoNordAbout ElectraLithElectraLith is an American deeptech pioneer developing DLE-R - a proprietary electrochemical technology for lithium extraction and refining. The technology produces battery-grade lithium hydroxide or carbonate without water, chemicals, or waste, and can be powered by renewable energy.In December 2024, the company closed a materially oversubscribed Series A round of approximately USD 17 million with investors including Rio Tinto, Chevron, Marathon Petroleum, and In-Q-Tel. In 2026, ElectraLith was selected a Top Innovator by the World Economic Forum and has pilot projects planned in Australia, the United Kingdom, and Argentina.About NanoNordNanoNord was founded in 2001 by inventor Ole Nørgaard Jensen, who previously sold the Bluetooth pioneer company Digianswer to Motorola. The company develops and manufactures MR-based measurement equipment under the name Tveskaeg, used for applications including sodium measurement in food, lithium measurement in the mining industry, and nitrogen and phosphorus measurement in agriculture. Customers include global names such as Kraft-Heinz, Orkla, and Imerys. In the other industries, such as the food industry, NanoNord equipment eliminates the need for silver nitrate titration, and in several European countries, Tveskaeg technology is currently being tested for agricultural applications, where it has the potential to optimise the use of slurry, resulting in less groundwater pollution and better utilisation of nutrients.NanoNord is foundation- and family-owned, with the Lauritzen Foundation as a major investor, and continues to be led by founder Ole Nørgaard Jensen as CEO. In Australia, NanoNord is represented during the state visit by Martin Nørgaard Mindorf, CCO, the next generation of the family.Contact information:Martin MindorfCCOmm@nanonord.dk+4596341590Charlie McGillCEOcharles.mcgill@electralith.comSOURCE: NanoNord Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Brisbane, Australia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - March 25, 2026) - Adyton Resources Corporation (TSXV: ADY) ("Adyton" or the "Company") is pleased to announce positive expansionary drill results from its ongoing exploration program at the 100% owned Feni Island Gold-Copper Project, located on the productive Lihir Trend, Papua New Guinea (PNG). This announcement provides all the assay results for expansionary hole FDD017 (preliminary results were first reported on February 18, 2026).Hole FDD017 previously returned 53m @ 1.29g/t Au (gold only) and now, incorporating newly released copper assays, reports as 53m @ 1.60g/t AuEq representing an approximate 25% increase in reported grade. In addition, strong silver (Ag) and molybdenum (Mo) results further support the presence of a highly fertile epithermal-porphyry at Kabang.KEY HIGHLIGHTS OF DRILL HOLE FDD017Final assays for hole FDD017 have delivered another >100g*m intercept, further confirming strong Au-Cu mineralisation in the north-eastern extension targetHole FDD017 yielded:53m @ 1.29g/t Au, 0.26% Cu (1.60g/t AuEq; from 151m)within a broader interval of 164m at 0.63g/t Au, 0.15% Cu (0.82g/t AuEq for 134g*m; from 36m);including a higher-grade interval that returned: 5m @ 3.6g/t Au, 1.48% Cu (5.63g/t AuEq: from 198m)In addition to gold and copper, FDD017 also reports significant silver and molybdenum signalling strong system fertility for a large alkalic epithermal-porphyry system:5m @ 22.3g/t Ag (from 198m) and 6m @ 275ppm Mo (from 295m; peak Mo 579ppm)These final assay results for hole FDD017 confirm the North-Eastern zone at Kabang is strongly mineralised and prospective for gold and copper and continues to expand this zone beyond the current resource model.Ground based IP/MT survey progressing well; looking to deploy within 2Q 2026."FDD017 continues to exceed our expectations, delivering a meaningful uplift in grade with the inclusion of copper and highlighting the strength of the broader mineralized system at Feni. The increase to 1.60g/t AuEq over 53 metres, combined with strong silver and molybdenum values, reinforces our view that Kabang represents a highly fertile and evolving epithermal-porphyry system. Importantly, this hole further confirms the scale and continuity of mineralization in the north-eastern extension, which remains open and continues to grow beyond the current resource footprint." said Tim Crossley, CEO.Adyton is looking forward to receiving additional assays from nearby drillholes within this zone and updating the market accordingly.SIGNIFICANT INTERCEPTSTable 1 shows the Significant Intercepts for gold and copper assay results received to date (new assays this release for FDD017 only).
