Paranovus Entertainment Technology Receives Letter From Nasdaq Regarding Late Filing Of Form 6-K Reporting Interim Financial Information

On Thursday, BofA Securities analyst Christopher Nardone upgraded Levi Strauss &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LEVI#NYSE">LEVI</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/LEVI/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">from Neutral to Buy rating</a> and raised the price forecast from $17.00 to $20.00.
The analyst cited the stock's 38% drop from last year as a compelling entry point and highlighted Levi's strong sales trends, conservative revenue guidance, low exposure to China, and improving wholesale performance.
With a solid balance sheet and diversified supply chain, the analyst raised the price forecast, applying an 8x multiple on fiscal 2026 EV/EBITDA.

The analyst views LEVI as a standout brand in uncertain times, thanks to its growing global appeal and dominant position in the denim market.
The company is expanding beyond denim into categories like dresses, skirts, and outerwear, aiming to increase its reach in women's apparel.
A partnership with Beyoncé continues to fuel brand buzz, while strong direct-to-consumer trends in key regions suggest global market share gains.
LEVI delivered a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44674732/levi-strauss-shares-rise-after-mixed-q1-results-details" rel="noreferrer noopener">strong fiscal first quarter</a>, with solid holiday sales driving improved revenue and margins. Net organic sales excluding FX, Denizen, footwear, and extra weeks rose 9%, though growth tapered as the quarter progressed.
Management reiterated its 3–4% annual growth outlook, which the analyst views as cautious. Encouragingly, March trends rebounded, and the margin trajectory appears well-positioned against peers forecasting stronger second-half recoveries.
LEVI's wholesale segment is showing positive momentum, with two straight quarters of U.S. growth. In Europe, first-quarter wholesale declined due to distribution center transitions, but order book strength suggests a return to growth in the second quarter.
LEVI is temporarily benefiting from a 90-day tariff reprieve, but the company appears resilient if trade tensions flare again, the analyst observed.
With limited exposure to China in its production and just 40% of sales tied to the U.S., LEVI is insulated from significant disruption.
LEVI's strong balance sheet is a key advantage amid economic uncertainty. With net leverage at just 0.2x, the company is in a far better position than many peers.
This financial flexibility allows LEVI to maintain dividends, continue share buybacks, and reinvest in growth positioning it well should macro conditions worsen, said the analyst.
Price Action: LEVI shares closed lower by 2.75% to $14.52 on Thursday.

ServiceNow, Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOW#NYSE">NOW</a>) is one of the weaker performers in Goldman Sachs analyst <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/58c6ab8db85e9300015f1ae0/kash-rangan">Kash Rangan&#8217;s coverage group</a>.
Rangan maintained a Buy rating on the company and lowered his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NOW/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target to $1,050 ($1,200 prior) on Thursday</a>.
ServiceNow has been one of the weaker performers in Rangan&#8217;s coverage group year-to-date (-22% versus coverage average -14%) as investors grapple with sub-20% fiscal 2025 guidance, the potential rationalization of PubSec IT spending, and knock-on effects from tariff policy volatility. 
Regarding the fiscal first quarter, the analyst noted ServiceNow could deliver +20.2% CC Subscription Revenue growth (modestly above guidance for +19.5% to +20%) and CC cRPO growth in line with guidance (+20.5%).
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44218665/servicenow-eyes-3-billion-ai-deal-targets-boost-from-moveworks-chatbot-tech" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ServiceNow Eyes $3 Billion AI Deal, Targets Boost From Moveworks Chatbot Tech</a>
While fiscal first-quarter guidance likely contemplated ongoing PubSec dynamics and closed before any tariff-related announcements, Rangan noted there may be some risk to fiscal second-quarter and fiscal 2025 guidance.
The analyst noted ServiceNow&#8217;s potential to modestly reduce growth expectations in response to predominantly tariffs and PubSec-related demand volatility (though the 90-day tariff pause adds further complexity).
However, with ServiceNow -29% off all-time highs (and at 33x EV/FCF calendar 2026), Rangan noted the stock provides an attractive entry point, notwithstanding the turbulent macro period.
ServiceNow is the standard for selling on customer value, amplified by its expanding AI portfolio (AI ACV &gt;$200 million) and recent Moveworks acquisition. It has consistently supported a growing share of IT budgets.
Furthermore, ServiceNow offers a strong and expanding free cash flow margin profile (&gt;30%) and maintains a solid balance sheet, meeting the key characteristics of a defensive software asset while still providing a bend toward high growth at scale.
Rangan noted ServiceNow as a resilient software asset that is facing macro uncertainty. However, while the analyst expects fiscal first-quarter results to largely be shielded from the volatility of recent tariff news, he noted the potential for fiscal second-quarter and fiscal 2025 guidance to be impacted by the evolving macro backdrop. 
Tariff uncertainty will likely cause enterprises to reassess IT budgets, spending priorities, and hiring plans, Rangan notes. 
Even following the announcement of the recent 90-day pause, the potential for ServiceNow to reduce forward expectations for revenue and cRPO growth modestly, he adds. Expect some enterprises to be more reluctant to sign large, transformational software deals in the interim, given a lack of clarity around what shape tariff policy will take.
The analyst noted that ServiceNow provides an attractive entry point, notwithstanding the turbulent macro environment. ServiceNow is the standard for selling on customer value, with clear ROI and efficiency gains, all of which are amplified by its growing AI portfolio.
Rangan projected first-quarter revenue of $3.09 billion and adjusted EPS of $3.93.
Price Action: NOW stock is down 5.19% at $783.49 by Thursday&#8217;s close.

Targa Resources Declares An Increase To Its Quarterly Cash Dividend To $1.00 Per Common Share For Q1 2025

Several stocks in the health care technology space are moving higher after the market close on Thursday after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced plans to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/fda-calendar">phase out animal testing requirements</a>.
What Happened: The FDA on Thursday announced plans to replace&nbsp;animal testing in the development of monoclonal antibody therapies and other drugs with human-relevant methods.
The FDA said it will phase out animal testing requirements in favor of AI-based computational models of toxicity and cell lines and organoid toxicity testing. Implementation is expected to begin immediately.
Health care tech and AI-powered biotech stocks making the biggest moves after the bell include Certara Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CERT#NASDAQ">CERT</a>), Schrodinger Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SDGR#NASDAQ">SDGR</a>), Simulations Plus Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLP#NASDAQ">SLP</a>), Recursion Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RXRX#NASDAQ">RXRX</a>) and Absci Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ABSI#NASDAQ">ABSI</a>). All of the aforementioned names were up between 15% and 25% in Thursday&#8217;s after-hours session at the time of writing, per <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
&#8220;This initiative marks a paradigm shift in drug evaluation and holds promise to accelerate cures and meaningful treatments for Americans while reducing animal use,&#8221; said Martin Makary, commissioner of the FDA.
&#8220;By leveraging AI-based computational modeling, human organ model-based lab testing and real-world human data, we can get safer treatments to patients faster and more reliably, while also reducing R&amp;D costs and drug prices.&#8221;
The policy changes will help improve the overall process by introducing advanced computer simulations, human-based lab models and regulatory incentives. The change is also expected to result in faster drug development.

Health Care Technology Stocks Surge After FDA Announces Plans To Phase Out Animal Testing Requirements

Rosenblatt Securities analyst Steve Frankel <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/IMAX/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reiterated a Buy rating</a> on the shares of IMAX Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IMAX#NYSE">IMAX</a>) on Wednesday, with a price forecast of $35.00.
Ahead of IMAX&#8217;s upcoming first-quarter earnings report, the analyst has raised the forecasts to better align with consensus, citing strong box office performance. 
Despite concerns about potential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44708103/why-investors-should-watch-chinas-service-trade-amid-us-tariff-escalation-disney-and-imax-most-impacted" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chinese restrictions on Hollywood films</a>, IMAX&#8217;s first-quarter global box office hit $280 million, far surpassing previous projections of $230 million. This was thanks to the massive success of Ne Zha 2, which grossed $2.145 billion globally, with $2.09 billion from China alone.
The film generated $162.6 million for IMAX, ranking among the company's top six highest-grossing titles and top three by ticket admissions.
Regionally, first-quarter box office figures showed a mixed picture: North America declined 46% year over year to $51 million, while Greater China surged 135% to $167 million. The rest of the world dropped 35% to $62 million.
Reflecting these results, the first-quarter earnings estimates are revised up to $82.7 million in revenue and $24.3 million in earnings, approaching the consensus of $83.5 million and $28.5 million. The updated full-year estimates of $420.0 million/$164.1 million compare to a consensus of $405.9 million/$156.3 million.

IMAX shares declined earlier in the week following reports suggesting China might limit Hollywood film imports amid ongoing trade tensions. However, there has been no official confirmation or coverage from major Chinese media outlets.
Given the importance of moviegoing to China's broader economic sectors, such as retail and real estate, the analyst doubts the government would take actions that could harm the exhibition industry.
If China limits Hollywood film imports, IMAX can pivot by showcasing more domestic films and proven alternatives like Japanese anime, which have performed well in the market. 
The second quarter has started strong, with A Minecraft Movie surpassing expectations globally, noted Frankel.
With six Filmed for IMAX titles scheduled this quarter, including Thunderbolts and Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning, the company is positioned for potential upside beyond its $265 million global box office estimate.
The shift toward premium movie formats is also boosting IMAX's business. The company revealed key expansion deals, including <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/contracts/25/04/44603254/amc-expands-premium-movie-experience-with-imax-laser-upgrades-in-landmark-deal">AMC's plan to install 12 new IMAX with Laser screens</a> and upgrade 68 existing ones.
IMAX recently expanded its partnership with TOHO Cinemas, adding six new IMAX with Laser locations in Japan, one of IMAX's strongest markets by per-screen revenue. This includes the first dual-IMAX complex outside North America, reflecting growing demand for diverse content.
Frankel observed that IMAX is benefiting from a blockbuster-heavy 2025–2026 slate, tighter cost control (especially in China), and stronger partnerships with studios and streamers.
Price Action: IMAX shares traded lower by 4.51% at $22.43 at last check Thursday.

Strong Slate, Premium Push Fuel IMAX Forecast Upgrades, Says Analyst

Mike Ippolito, co-founder of the financial media company Blockworks, summarized his view on tariffs as a "decades-long psyop" of the American middle class that led to populist blow-back and tariffs as a way to return blue-collar manufacturing jobs<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44748635/stocks-bounce-off-session-lows-after-trump-says-china-deal-is-going-to-work-out"> to the United States.&nbsp;</a>
What To Know: Ippolito posted a short video clip from the "Bell Curve" podcast where he laid out his views on the motivation behind the Trump administration's aggressive trade policies: The tariffs are intended to appease the middle-class, ‘Main Street'&nbsp; voter base with promises of returning manufacturing jobs to Americans.&nbsp;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
"A huge problem in America for a very long time is that we were exporting middle-class jobs overseas. And I think there was a decades-long psyop that ‘That's not the case!' … and it was really disproportionately hurting a large portion in voter base in America," Ippolito said.&nbsp;
Middle class workers eventually grew angry with the exportation of industrial and manufacturing jobs and decided they did not like the people and policies that had moved their jobs overseas.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Ippolito said, "You know what? This is what you get. You reap what you sow. You did not solve this problem, you gaslit this huge portion of the population."&nbsp;
The pressure had built up and exploded out in the form of populist policies and tariffs designed to reshore manufacturing and return product manufacturing to the United States in an attempt to please ‘Main Street' American voters.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Ippolito concluded his theory with the idea that Trump's trade policies are intended to move the focus from Wall Street to Main Street.&nbsp; It remains to be seen which "Street," if any, will benefit from the tariffs.&nbsp;

Trump's Tariff Policies Stem From 'Decades-Long Psyop,' Crypto Founder Says

Benchmark analyst Mark Miller upgraded Western Digital Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WDC#NASDAQ">WDC</a>) from Hold to Buy with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/WDC/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">$55&nbsp;price target Thursday</a>.
Investor&#8217;s concern over tariffs has produced compelling valuations for some tech hardware stocks.
In Benchmark&#8217;s 26 years of coverage, the forward valuations of hard drive stocks have typically ranged from mid-single digits to teen multiples.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43065734/western-digital-poised-for-long-term-growth-despite-short-term-nand-pressures-analysts-say" rel="noreferrer noopener">Western Digital Faces &#8216;Challenging Pricing Environment,&#8217; But There&#8217;s Long-Term Potential: Analysts</a>
Western Digital stock is trading at the low end of this historic range. Miller deemed the stock attractive, backed by its valuation, expected double-digit growth in data center spending by the major hyperscalers, the AI opportunity, and lower expected interest expense.
In a recent survey, nearly two-thirds of respondents from companies that use cloud as their leading storage medium expect their cloud-based storage to grow by more than 100% over the next three years.
Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), Amazon.Com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), and Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) will likely increase their combined capital expenditure by 40%, from roughly $230 billion in 2024 to $322 billion in 2025.
According to estimates, close to 89% of data stored by leading cloud service providers is stored on hard drives. Last quarter, Western Digital reported a record Nearline Exabytes (EB) shipment and Data Center sale.
Strong data center spending should continue to aid Western Digital&#8217;s stock. Driven by AI, the size of the Global Datasphere will likely rise to 175 zettabytes this year.
Western Digital has several AI opportunities. Due to the lower storage cost on hard drives, a nearline storage HDD has a unit price per GB of $0.013, while large capacity SSDs for servers have a unit price per GB of $0.123, nearly 9.5 times higher than HDDs. SSDs are attractive for both AI learning and generative applications.
AI users believe the adoption of trustworthy AI requires an increased need to store more data for extended periods, which also favors hard drives over flash.
Miller noted that the ramp-up of PCs with AI chips in the second half of 2025 will drive a refresh cycle for PCs.
As a result of Sandisk Corp&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNDK#NASDAQ">SNDK</a>) spin-out, Western Digital holds about 24 million SanDisk stock. Miller noted that Western Digital will divest these shares and use the proceeds to pay down debt, saving an estimated $0.15 to $0.20 per diluted share in annual interest expense.&nbsp;&nbsp;
For Western Digital, Miller projected third-quarter revenue of $2.70 billion and EPS of $1.32 (prior $1.12).
Price Action: Western Digital stock closed lower by 3.94% to $34.87 on Thursday.

12 Information Technology Stocks Moving In Thursday's After-Market Session

In New York's cannabis game, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cannabis-new-york">rules are different</a>. This isn't Illinois or Florida or Pennsylvania, where massive multistate operators often dominate the market and set the pace. Nor is it a rush to grab VC dollars. In New York, ambition means ownership placed directly in the hands of those locked out for decades. Inclusion here isn't a slogan; it's the blueprint, the norm. And few embody this better than Happy Munkey.
The brand, co-founded by Vladimir Bautista and Ramon Reyes, operates licensed dispensaries in Uptown Manhattan and Downtown Brooklyn.
The storefronts are new. The journey goes back years. Happy Munkey existed long before legalization, first as an underground cannabis lounge, then as a lifestyle brand rooted in Latino culture. Now, it's fully legal, fully bilingual and fiercely proud.
This is what equity looks like when the neighborhood builds it.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="683" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/10145233/WhatsApp-Image-2025-04-10-at-15.40.44-4-1024x683.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-866664" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/10145233/WhatsApp-Image-2025-04-10-at-15.40.44-4-1024x683.jpeg 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/10145233/WhatsApp-Image-2025-04-10-at-15.40.44-4-300x200.jpeg 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/10145233/WhatsApp-Image-2025-04-10-at-15.40.44-4-768x512.jpeg 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/10145233/WhatsApp-Image-2025-04-10-at-15.40.44-4-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/10145233/WhatsApp-Image-2025-04-10-at-15.40.44-4.jpeg 1599w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
"Today we want to recognize all the Latino entrepreneurs in our industry here in New York," Bautista told Benzinga. His tone was prideful yet clear and firm &#8211; a statement that demanded attention.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Legalization With Purpose</h2>
When New York legalized cannabis in 2021, the state promised to center those who suffered the most during prohibition. Decades of aggressive policing had left Black and Latino communities disproportionately harmed. In 2020 alone, <a href="https://www.amny.com/news/people-of-color-made-up-94-of-marijuana-arrests-by-nypd-in-2020-data-and-legal-aid-says/">NYPD data</a> shows that more than 90% of low-level marijuana arrests targeted Black and Latino New Yorkers. That's the reality New York chose to address head-on.
The state's Office of Cannabis Management introduced the Conditional Adult-Use Retail Dispensary (CAURD) program, explicitly prioritizing people directly impacted by cannabis criminalization. By late 2024, <a href="https://cannabis.ny.gov/system/files/documents/2024/12/ocm-annual-report-2024.pdf">more than half</a> of CAURD licenses had gone to justice-involved entrepreneurs from historically targeted neighborhoods.

Marijuana Policy Still Divides Democrats And Republicans</a>
Happy Munkey was among those first license recipients—not by luck, but by history. Bautista and Reyes had already earned trust, built infrastructure and created community ties. Legalization only confirmed what the streets already knew.
"What's important, my people," Bautista explained, "is that the whole world knows Latinos are succeeding here. We're entrepreneurs. We own our future. And we're proudly raising the Latino flag high."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Legacy Market Origins</h2>
In 2017, years before legalization became a reality, Happy Munkey existed underground. It offered private lounges where people gathered without stigma. Events that mixed cannabis, music and art created a genuine sense of belonging. The founders also launched The Happy Munkey Podcast, Munkey TV and Munkey Magazine, platforms normalizing cannabis culture openly.
When New York made legalization official, Happy Munkey simply continued its mission. First, with a dispensary at 151 Dyckman Street in Inwood, the neighborhood where Bautista and Reyes grew up. Soon after, a second location opened at 453 Fulton Street in downtown Brooklyn, near Barclays Center. Both dispensaries are open daily from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., offering flower, pre-rolls, concentrates, tinctures, edibles and vapes.
But the attraction isn't just products; it's people. The bilingual team moves effortlessly between English and Spanish, welcoming visitors with warmth and familiarity.
"It feels like home," said a first-time customer from Argentina visiting Dyckman. "They speak our language—literally. Entering a dispensary can feel overwhelming. Having someone explain things to me in Spanish made it easy. Easy-peasy."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Recognition From Forbes And Beyond</h2>
In 2024, Forbes placed Bautista and Reyes on its annual <a href="https://www.forbes.com/lists/cannabis420/">Cannabis 4:20</a> list, highlighting influential cannabis entrepreneurs across the U.S. Forbes' list focused specifically on independent, smaller brands reshaping the industry without massive corporate backing.
In addition, Happy Munkey received two Clio Awards—in 2023 and 2024—for innovative branding and community-focused storytelling. Still, Bautista emphasizes these accolades aren't the ultimate goal.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="815" height="1024" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/10145346/WhatsApp-Image-2025-04-10-at-15.43.45-815x1024.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-866666" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/10145346/WhatsApp-Image-2025-04-10-at-15.43.45-815x1024.jpeg 815w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/10145346/WhatsApp-Image-2025-04-10-at-15.43.45-239x300.jpeg 239w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/10145346/WhatsApp-Image-2025-04-10-at-15.43.45-768x964.jpeg 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/10145346/WhatsApp-Image-2025-04-10-at-15.43.45.jpeg 860w" sizes="(max-width: 815px) 100vw, 815px" /></figure>
"The genesis of Happy Munkey comes from a desire to provide safe, legal cannabis to the community that's given so much to us," Bautista told <a href="https://cannabisnow.com/munkey-business/">Cannabis Now</a> in a recent interview.
The commitment is clear in the brand's daily operations: hiring locals, educating neighbors, hosting cultural events and advocating for policy change. The spaces it creates resonate with local voices, whether through hip-hop playlists, Latino artwork or casual conversations that make dispensary visits feel familiar and welcoming.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">No Franchise Dreams, Only Authentic Roots</h2>
Happy Munkey isn't pursuing national scale or rapid expansion. Bautista has compared his vision to TAO Nightclubs: carefully chosen locations built around authentic cultural impact rather than uniform franchises.
This intentional approach has shaped Happy Munkey's unique identity. In a city <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/willyakowicz/2021/03/31/new-york-state-legalizes-adult-use-cannabis/">projected</a> to reach $4.2 billion in cannabis sales by 2027, Happy Munkey stands out—not because it's big, but because it's real.
In New York, where cannabis legalization arrived with the promise of equity, Happy Munkey shows how that promise can become a reality. Built by Latinos from the neighborhoods that prohibition once harmed, the brand's success reflects genuine community ownership.
Cannabis here is personal, and Happy Munkey ensures it remains that way: local, bilingual, and deeply rooted. It's a success story the city desperately needed.

And it's not alone. Across the five boroughs, other Latino entrepreneurs are carving out their space in the legal market, too:

<li>Jeremy Rivera, running Terp Bros.</li>
<li>Gabe Encarnación, founder of Glena &amp; Co.</li>
<li>Miguel Brito, behind The 1 Brand.</li>
</ul>
The movement isn't just about one brand. It's a collective wave, building a legacy where prohibition once tried to erase it.
