Multi-Color Corporation Announces Confirmation of Plan of Reorganization

 Company Expects to Emerge from Prepackaged Chapter 11 in Coming Weeks With Significantly Deleveraged Balance Sheet Including Approximately $3.8 Billion Reduction in Outstanding Funded Debt


Significant New Money Investment Will Establish Strong Liquidity Position to Support Long-Term Growth and Investment


(BUSINESS WIRE)--Multi-Color Corporation (“MCC” or the “Company”), a global leader in prime label solutions, today announced that the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey (the “Court”) has confirmed the Company’s prepackaged plan of reorganization (the “Plan”). MCC expects to emerge from prepackaged Chapter 11 in the coming weeks.


Under the terms of the Plan, MCC will complete a comprehensive restructuring transaction that significantly deleverages the Company’s balance sheet and recapitalizes the business. The restructuring reduces net debt by approximately $3.8 billion, reduces annualized cash interest expense by more than $330 million, and extends long‑term debt maturities to 2033. In addition, MCC will receive a significant $889 million investment from CD&R and a group of MCC’s existing secured lenders. Post-emergence, the Company expects to have more than $500 million of available liquidity to support long-term growth and investment.


“Today’s confirmation marks the near-completion of our financial restructuring process, positioning MCC to emerge as an even more resilient company,” said Hassan Rmaile, President & Chief Executive Officer of MCC. “With the support of our financial stakeholders, MCC will emerge with a significantly deleveraged balance sheet and liquidity available to support our go-forward operations, invest in innovation, and continue delivering the high-quality label solutions that our customers depend on. I am grateful to our teammates, customers, and suppliers for their steadfast commitment and support throughout this process, and we look forward to the opportunities ahead.”


Plan confirmation follows a successful mediation and global settlement among every major constituency in MCC’s prepackaged Chapter 11 cases, with more than 99% of voting stakeholders accepting MCC’s prepackaged Chapter 11 plan. This global settlement is in addition to the support previously obtained through the restructuring support agreement entered into prior to the commencement of MCC’s prepackaged Chapter 11 cases in January 2026.


With court approval in hand, MCC expects to receive the proceeds from the significant new common and preferred equity investment and complete its financial restructuring in the coming weeks.

Skild AI Acquires Zebra Technologies' Robotics Automation Business

 Any robot. Any warehouse. One brain. Now at scale.


 


(BUSINESS WIRE)--Skild AI today announced the acquisition of Zebra Technologies' Robotics Automation business, including its Symmetry Fulfillment orchestration platform.


This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260415518240/en/


The Skild Brain — the industry's first omnibodied AI software designed to operate without prior knowledge of a robot's exact body form — can control any robot, across any task, in any warehouse environment. With Zebra's battle-tested Symmetry orchestration platform, it now has the infrastructure to deploy and orchestrate entire fleets of Skild Brain-powered robots at enterprise scale.


From Fragmented Automation to Orchestrated Intelligence: Warehouse robots today are programmed task-by-task, locked to specific hardware. Change the robot, and you're largely starting from scratch. The Skild Brain was built to break that dependency — generalizing across humanoids, mobile robots, and industrial arms without retraining. Symmetry, already proven in some of the world's most demanding logistics environments, coordinates those robots in real time alongside frontline workers. Every new deployment feeds the Skild Brain's data flywheel, making it smarter across every environment it operates in.


Together, they form something that hasn't existed before: one intelligent layer that can run an entire warehouse, regardless of what robots are in it.


Turning Existing Warehouses Into Symphonies of Autonomy: Logistics operators no longer need to engineer their warehouse around their robots and deal with several partners — each providing one fragment of the automated solution. Skild AI’s acquisition of Zebra’s Robotics Automation business will create the first organization that can provide a full end-to-end automation solution for warehouses: humanoids for pick-place, robotic dogs for inspection, robotic arms for packing, AMRs for material movement and an orchestration layer to control them all.


Skild AI grew from zero to approximately $30M in revenue in just a few months in 2025 and is now positioned to scale enterprise deployments at a pace that was not previously possible. Skild AI will build end-to-end solutions for warehouses, accelerating the pace of deployments at a rate unheard of in the current AI robotics industry.


In their words:


"Warehouse automation remains deeply fragmented today, with classical approaches falling short in most real-world scenarios — a fundamental barrier to achieving true operational efficiency. Tearing down and rebuilding warehouses to suit pre-programmed robots is simply not a viable economic solution. By combining Zebra's human-robot orchestration platform with Skild AI's omnibodied brain, we are set to transform what end-to-end automation looks like in warehouses that exist today. Zebra's orchestration layer brings humans into the fold alongside Skild AI's vision of 'any robot, any task, one brain' — turning warehouses into living symphonies of human and machine autonomy." — Deepak Pathak, CEO, Skild AI


“Lack of automated grasping and complex manipulation continues to slow down warehouses. The Skild Brain in conjunction with the Zebra’s tried and tested person-to-goods solution will turn warehouses into hubs of hyper-efficiency.” — Abhinav Gupta, President, Skild AI


About Skild AI : Founded in 2023, Skild AI builds a general-purpose foundation model for robotics. Backed by SoftBank Group, NVIDIA Ventures, Macquarie Capital (entities administered by Macquarie Capital), Jeff Bezos, Sequoia Capital, Lightspeed, Coatue, Felicis, and others, the company is valued at over $14 billion. Offices in Pittsburgh, the San Francisco Bay Area, and Bengaluru.

Ferring Pharmaceuticals and Gallup Announce Landmark Global Public Attitudes Study on Fertility and Family-Building


 WASHINGTON - 

Ferring Global Fertility Monitor will gather data from a representative sample in 70 countries as a part of the Gallup World Poll

Consultation to gather expert opinion on high impact questions begins this year

The project aims to provide data and evidence to inform demography-related policymaking against a backdrop of total fertility rates dropping below replacement levels in many countries worldwide, with the U.S. reporting its lowest on record in the latest federal data released last week1

 


(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ferring Pharmaceuticals and Gallup today announced the Ferring Global Fertility Monitor, a global study on the factors influencing people’s fertility choices, at the 2026 Annual Convening of Semafor World Economy.


This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260415305082/en/


The Ferring Global Fertility Monitor is grounded in the recognition that declining global fertility rates are an increasingly significant public policy topic, with rates already well below replacement level in many countries. Rolled out as part of the Gallup World Poll, it will provide policymakers with robust, globally comparable data on the social, economic, cultural, and structural factors shaping fertility choices. By integrating these insights with people’s lived experiences, well-being, and aspirations, the Monitor supports more responsive, inclusive, and human-centred approaches to demographic change.


Jean-Frédéric Paulsen, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of Ferring Pharmaceuticals, said: “As a company committed to supporting people on their fertility journey, we see the global debate on demographic change as one of the defining issues of our time. Around the world, questions about the future shape of populations are intensifying, yet the data needed to fully understand these shifts, and their implications, remains far too limited. This project has the potential to transform that landscape. By strengthening the global evidence base, we can deepen understanding of what is happening and why, helping governments, health systems and communities plan for a more sustainable future.”


Jon Clifton, Chief Executive Officer of Gallup, said: “We spend a lot of time debating falling fertility and birth rates, but surprisingly little time asking people why. This initiative changes that, using nationally representative data, collected consistently at a scale no one has attempted before across 70 countries."


In 2026, the Ferring Global Fertility Monitor will be developed through an expert consultation and research process designed to identify critical evidence gaps in how fertility decisions are understood across countries. A cognitively tested questionnaire will then enter the 2027 Gallup World Poll and run as a biannual tracker. When complete, the Monitor will represent one of the most comprehensive global data and evidence bases to date on how people think about parenthood, and what helps or hinders them from realising those aspirations.


The Gallup World Poll is the world’s largest private survey infrastructure, collecting annual data from around 140 countries. All data are nationally representative of the adult population and collected either via face-to-face or telephone interviewing. The World Poll collects data on a wide range of topics, all of which speak to how people’s lives are going.

Galderma Launches New Alastin Regenerating Skin Nectar with TriHex+™, Powered by Its Next-Generation TriHex Technology® Regenerative Platform


 ZUG, Switzerland - 

Regenerating Skin Nectar has long played a central role in the peri-procedural skin journey as part of Alastin’s dedicated procedure support portfolio, enhancing the body’s natural processes for removing damaged collagen and elastin while creating an optimal environment for new, healthy collagen and elastin production — visibly improving how the skin prepares for, responds to, and recovers from procedures.

With the addition of our proprietary Octapeptide‑45, Regenerating Skin Nectar with TriHex+™ introduces an advanced formulation that builds on the original Tri-Hex Technology® foundation, while further supporting the skin’s natural production of new collagen, elastin, and high‑molecular‑weight hyaluronic acid (HA).1

The new formulation also helps reinforce skin structure, restore skin barrier, and support long-term skin longevity.

This innovation underscores Galderma’s commitment to advancing peri-procedural skincare and empowering providers with science-based solutions designed to deliver exceptional aesthetic and procedural outcomes.

 


(BUSINESS WIRE)--Galderma (SIX: GALD), the pure-play dermatology category leader, today announced the launch of Regenerating Skin Nectar with TriHex+™, the newest innovation from Alastin, a leader in peptide-based regenerative skincare.


As a pioneer in peri‑procedural skincare, Alastin helped establish the category with the original Regenerating Skin Nectar — one of the first products specifically developed to prepare the skin before cosmetic procedures, complement procedural outcomes, and visibly support a smoother, accelerated recovery.


For more than a decade, it has served as a foundational peri-procedural product used by aesthetic providers to improve skin readiness and enhance treatment response. Today, among physicians who offer the brand, Alastin is their preferred peri-procedural skincare choice, and it remains the only product in this category with published clinical data demonstrating the benefits of preconditioning the skin prior to a procedure.


The new and enhanced Regenerating Skin Nectar with TriHex+™ builds on this foundation with an advanced formulation designed to help visibly improve how the skin prepares for, responds to, and recovers from procedures. It complements a broad range of aesthetic and surgical procedures such as facelifts, microneedling, laser resurfacing, chemical peels, and radiofrequency ablation, among others.


Regenerating Skin Nectar with TriHex+™ is the second product to feature the next-generation TriHex+™ platform, following the successful launch of Restorative Skin Complex with TriHex+™. TriHex Technology® uniquely combines proprietary peptide components that help clear aged, damaged collagen and elastin while simultaneously supporting the production of new, healthy collagen and elastin — a dual mechanism that underpins its regenerative approach. TriHex+™ is the next evolution of this technology. The addition of proprietary Octapeptide‑45 advances this activity by supporting the skin’s natural production of high‑molecular‑weight HA, a critical component of skin structure and resilience, and working synergistically with TriHex Technology® to further enhance production of collagen, elastin, and HA. This reinforces the skin’s underlying structural integrity, including the dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ), and supports the skin’s response to procedural stress in ways that contribute to more consistent outcomes and long-term skin longevity.


 


“Galderma continues to deepen the understanding of extracellular matrix remodeling, which is now recognized as a key driver of skin aging and longevity. Our new TriHex+™ formulation represents the evolution of our regenerative platform, focusing on key proteins and membranes that influence how the skin responds to procedural stress at a structural level. This innovation reflects our continued commitment to developing science-driven solutions that not only aid in procedural outcomes, but also support a more resilient skin recovery.”


 


ALAN D. WIDGEROW, MBBCH, MMED, FCS, FACS


CHIEF SCIENTIFIC OFFICER, GALDERMA


HEAD, SKIN SCIENCE CENTER FOR INNOVATION


 


Peer-reviewed clinical studies support the use of Regenerating Skin Nectar with TriHex+™ as a foundational peri‑procedural product. In a randomized, double‑blind facelift pre‑conditioning study, 100% of patients showed visible improvements in key extracellular matrix (ECM) markers—including collagen, elastin, and high‑molecular‑weight HA—alongside reductions in solar elastosis and a stronger, more defined DEJ.2 The improvement in DEJ definition is clinically meaningful, as DEJ integrity helps skin better withstand mechanical and thermal stress during procedures.3,4 Additional evaluations demonstrated statistically significant improvements in skin barrier function as early as 30 minutes post-application, with continued improvement through day 14, alongside increased skin hydration observed from day 3.² Clinical grading and photography showed visibly improved healing responses, including reduced appearance of erythema (redness), edema (swelling), and crusting. Split‑face microneedling evaluations also demonstrated improved tolerability compared with exosome-based products.5 These findings reinforce the role of peri-procedural skincare in optimizing overall treatment outcomes.


The formulation is water-free, preservative-free, and bacteriostatic, allowing for use immediately following procedures. This enables early integration into post-procedure care when the skin is most vulnerable and requires products that will not irritate or disrupt healing.


 


“In my practice, patients are looking for treatments that deliver strong results while minimizing downtime. Alastin Regenerating Skin Nectar has helped support that balance by preparing the skin ahead of procedures, visibly improving how it responds during treatment, and promoting a more efficient recovery afterward. With TriHex+™, the clinical data demonstrates it supports advanced improvements in hydration, barrier function, and recovery response — factors I prioritize to help deliver more consistent, high-quality outcomes for my patients.”

(BUSINESS WIRE)--Perma-Pipe International Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: PPIH) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and 2025 fiscal year ended January 31, 2026.


“For the three months ended January 31, 2026, net sales were $55.1 million, an increase of $10.1 million, or 22.4%, compared to $45.0 million in the same quarter of the prior year. Growth was driven by higher sales volumes in both the Middle East and North America. Gross profit was $17.3 million, up $2.1 million from $15.2 million last year, reflecting higher activity levels. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased slightly to $10.3 million from $9.7 million, primarily due to higher payroll costs, partially offset by lower bonus costs. The Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) was 12.3%, compared to 32.1% in the prior-year quarter, reflecting the impact of product mix across various tax jurisdictions. As a result, net income attributable to common stock was $4.9 million, an increase of $3.1 million, or 172.2%, compared to $1.8 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024,” noted President and CEO Saleh Sagr.


“For the year ended January 31, 2026, net sales were $210.9 million, an increase of $52.5 million, or 33.1%, compared to $158.4 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to higher sales volumes in both the Middle East and North America. Gross profit was $69.5 million, compared to $53.2 million in the prior year period, reflecting increased activity levels. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $40.1 million, up from $32.9 million, due to higher payroll and professional fees, including approximately $1.0 million related to Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404 compliance in connection with our transition from a non-accelerated filer to an accelerated filer. This also includes a one-time compensation charge of approximately $2.0 million related to the departure of the previous CEO. The Company’s effective tax rate was 24.9%, compared to 29.1% in the prior-year period. The change in the Company's effective tax rate reflects product mix across various tax jurisdictions and the Company’s overall reduction in its effective tax rate for the year was partially offset by the impact of a tax limitation related to the one-time charge associated with the prior CEO’s departure. Net income attributable to common stock was $17.0 million, an increase of $8.0 million, or 88.9%, compared to $9.0 million in fiscal 2024,” Mr. Sagr commented.


President and CEO Saleh Sagr added: “Our backlog stood at $121.6 million as of January 31, 2026. This reflects strong operational execution as we successfully accelerated the conversion of existing sales orders into realized revenue. Our backlog remains at historically strong levels. We continue to see meaningful multi-regional expansion, particularly across North America and the Middle East, reinforcing sustained global demand for our solutions.”


“Our fiscal 2025 results represent a landmark achievement for the Company. Total revenues of $210.9 million and net income attributable to common stockholders of $17.0 million mark our highest level of earnings in the Company’s modern operating history, driven not only by strong top-line growth but also by improved margins. This record performance was driven by broad-based strength across our global footprint, with significant growth contributions from the Middle East and North America. Our ability to scale across these diverse markets while maintaining disciplined margin performance has enabled us to convert top-line momentum into meaningful bottom-line value for our shareholders.”


“To sustain this trajectory, we have entered into a long-term lease for a new production facility in Ohio (AI data centers). This strategically located hub will serve as a primary logistics center for the Northeast and New England corridors, enabling us to localize production for our district heating and cooling offerings and capture additional regional market share. The region’s favorable and flexible labor environment further enhances our operational agility.”


“Supporting our long-term growth strategy, we also finalized a new credit facility with J.P. Morgan Chase. This agreement represents a watershed moment for the Company. We have standardized our borrowing platform globally at significantly improved terms. This transition optimizes our cost of capital while providing the liquidity necessary to support the next phase of our global expansion,” Mr. Sagr continued.


“With record earnings as our foundation and a modernized capital structure as our fuel, we enter the remainder of 2026 with strong confidence in our ability to scale our global operations and drive meaningful shareholder returns,” Mr. Sagr concluded.


2025 Results


Net sales were $210.9 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, an increase of $52.5 million, or 33.1%, from $158.4 million in the prior year. The growth was primarily driven by higher sales volumes across our key markets in the Middle East, Canada, and the United States


Gross profit was $69.5 million, or 33% of net sales, compared to $53.2 million, or 34% of net sales, in the prior year. The $16.3 million was driven by higher sales volumes and consistent gross margins globally.


General and administrative expenses were $35.3 million, compared to $28.0 million in the prior year. The increase of $7.3 million was primarily related to higher compensation costs and professional fees, including approximately $1.0 million relating to Sarbanes-Oxley 404 compliance in connection with our transition from a non-accelerated filer to an accelerated filer. This also includes a one-time compensation charge of approximately $2.0 million related to the departure of the previous CEO.


Selling expenses were $4.7 million, compared to $4.9 million in the years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease of $0.2 million was primarily driven by lower payroll expenses during the year.


Interest expense, net was $1.8 million and $1.9 million in the years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease of $0.1 million was the result of an overall reduction in interest rates during the year.


The Company's worldwide effective tax rates ("ETR") were 24.9% and 29.1% in the years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The change in ETR was largely due to changes in the mix of income and loss in various tax jurisdictions and the domestic Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income ("GILTI") inclusion.


Net income attributable to common stock was $17.0 million, or $ 2.09 per diluted share, for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to $9.0 million, or $ 1.12 per diluted share, in the prior year. The 89% increase was driven by the significant growth in sales volumes and operational efficiencies discussed above, partially offset by the one-time charges previously noted and amounts attributable to non-controlling interest.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE

ADJUSTED INCOME BEFORE TAX

(In thousands)

(Unaudited)


The following information contains a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure of adjusted income before income tax and income before tax prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for the three and twelve months ended January 31, 2026, and 2025, respectively. This reconciliation is intended to provide investors with useful information in evaluating the Company's performance. Adjusted income before tax includes certain adjustments as identified below. This measure is not considered an alternative to income before tax or other financial measures of performance that are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that the exclusion of certain items from income before tax allows investors to more effectively evaluate the Company's operating performance and identify trends that might not be apparent due to the variability and infrequent nature of these items. In addition, the Company believes this measure provides meaningful information to investors when comparing results between periods and performance with respect to the Company's peers.


Adjustments were made for certain items as follows: (i) a one-time charge associated with the acceleration of executive compensation; (ii) a one-time litigation settlement charge; and (iii) other non-recurring items. These non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance the user's overall understanding of the company’s current financial performance and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Amazfit Unveils the Cheetah 2 Pro, a Performance Running Watch Built for Marathon Preparation


 MILPITAS, Calif. - 

Titanium design meets structural lightness, engineered for the demands of marathon training cycles


(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Amazfit, a leading global smart wearable brand owned by Zepp Health, today announced the Cheetah 2 Pro, the newest addition to its performance-focused Cheetah lineup. Built for marathon runners who believe preparation is everything, the Cheetah 2 Pro is designed around a simple belief: marathon performance is shaped by the work runners do throughout the training week. It brings structured running, strength-supportive training, and recovery insights into one focused preparation system, helping runners stay consistent through long marathon build-ups. Launching ahead of the Boston and London Marathons, the Cheetah 2 Pro is built to meet the demands of high-mileage training and race day alike.


Introducing Amazfit’s philosophy of refined performance and structural lightness, the Cheetah 2 Pro is engineered for runners who know speed is not only about miles and splits, but also the strength, recovery, and discipline that support performance over time. Rooted in a hybrid training philosophy, it helps runners build endurance alongside strength and recovery, supporting the durability and consistency needed for long marathon build-ups.


“Marathon training is about consistency, discipline, and being intentional with every part of your preparation. As I train for Boston, the Cheetah 2 Pro helps me stay locked in on the details that matter, from pacing to recovery, and it does it in a way that feels light, comfortable, and built for the demands of high-mileage training.”

Rory Linkletter, professional marathon runner and Amazfit athlete ambassador


Refined Performance, Engineered Without Excess


Speed should come from intelligent architecture, not added mass. Through structural lightness, unnecessary material is reduced while rigidity and precision are maintained, creating a marathon training watch that feels precise without feeling heavy. The Cheetah 2 Pro delivers advanced running performance in a streamlined design that feels fast, comfortable, and unobtrusive from daily training to race day.


Built for the demands of long training blocks and race day, the Cheetah 2 Pro pairs a Grade 5 titanium bottom case and middle frame with scratch-resistant sapphire glass to deliver durable, lightweight confidence without unnecessary bulk. A bright 1.32-inch AMOLED display keeps data clear and readable through early starts, shifting daylight, and late miles.


Training Designed for the Long Build


The Cheetah 2 Pro supports runners at every level with built-in running workouts focused on the foundations that matter most over distance. Aerobic base work builds endurance, threshold sessions improve efficiency, and strength-focused training supports durability so runners can handle higher mileage with greater resilience.


With Zepp Coach, runners receive intelligent, personalized training plans tailored to distances ranging from 3K to full marathon, adapting based on performance and progress. For those seeking deeper control, the watch also integrates with advanced third-party platforms such as TrainingPeaks, Runna, Strava and Intervals.icu.


Metrics for Smarter Running and Recovery


The Cheetah 2 Pro turns training data into clearer decisions, helping runners understand when to push, when to recover, and how to stay consistent through demanding training blocks. Advanced running metrics including pacing, lactate threshold, running power, gait tracking, and finish time predictions help runners better understand how they move, measure progress over time, and train with greater intention.


Within the Zepp app, recovery insights such as heart rate, HRV, sleep, and fatigue provide a more complete picture of how the body is responding to training load. Metrics including VO2 max, fatigue level, and training status help runners make smarter decisions about when to push forward and when to prioritize recovery, supporting consistency across long training cycles.


The Most Advanced GPS in the Cheetah Lineup


Featuring advanced dual-band GPS with multi-satellite positioning, the Cheetah 2 Pro delivers precise pacing and reliable route tracking, even when routes become more complex or focus begins to fade over long distances. Whether navigating city streets or winding courses, runners can rely on accurate location data to stay on pace and on course.


Endurance That Matches the Distance


Training does not stop because the battery does. The Cheetah 2 Pro offers up to 29 hours of GPS battery life, supporting marathon cutoff times around the world and extended efforts that require reliable performance from start to finish. For everyday use, the watch also delivers up to 17 days of battery life, ensuring it keeps pace with both training cycles and daily life.


The built-in dual-mode flashlight adds confidence during early morning and late evening runs, with adjustable brightness settings designed to improve visibility during outdoor workouts.


Pricing and Availability


The Cheetah 2 Pro will be available for purchase starting April 16, 2026, for $449.99 on Amazfit.com and select retailers.
