Golar LNG Limited ("Golar") is pleased to announce that FLNG&nbsp;Gimi has reached the Commercial Operations Date ("COD") for its 20-year Lease and Operate Agreement for the Greater Tortue Ahmeyim ("GTA") project offshore Mauritania and Senegal. The COD triggers the start of the 20-year Lease and Operate Agreement that unlocks the equivalent of around $3 billion of Adjusted EBITDA backlog (Golar's share).
The COD milestone marks a major achievement for one of Africa's deepest offshore developments which introduce Mauritania and Senegal as LNG exporters. We look forward to continuing working together with the GTA operator bp and its partners Kosmos, PETROSEN and SMH as well as Mauritanian and Senegalese authorities to deliver safe and reliable operations and to create value to all stakeholders.
Following the achieved COD of FLNG Gimi and announcement of the two FLNG charters in Argentina on May 2, 2025, Golar is accelerating work on its next FLNG unit(s). We continue to advance commercial discussions, with charterer demand guiding design choice of the fourth FLNG unit. In addition to the 3.5mtpa MKII option at CIMC Raffles shipyard, Golar has signed a final engineering study to confirm EPC price and delivery for a 5mtpa MKIII FLNG and is updating price and schedule for an up to 2.7mtpa MKI FLNG.

Global Net Lease, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GNL#NYSE">GNL</a>) ("GNL" or the "Company") announced that it has completed the final phase of its multi-tenant portfolio sale to RCG Ventures, LLC on June 18, 2025, including 12 encumbered properties. This third phase generated approximately $313 million in gross proceeds1, bringing total gross proceeds from the portfolio sale to $1.8 billion2. GNL plans on using the incremental net proceeds from the third phase of the multi-tenant portfolio sale to further reduce leverage by paying down the outstanding balance on GNL's Revolving Credit Facility.
The multi-tenant portfolio sale simplifies GNL's portfolio and sharpens its strategic focus by becoming a pure-play net lease owner and operator. This transition is expected to generate approximately $6.5 million in recurring annual G&amp;A savings, along with additional cash savings from a substantial reduction in annual capital expenditures. GNL also believes the multi-tenant portfolio sale will create significant efficiencies in its operations by eliminating the complexities associated with managing multi-tenant retail properties.

US Stock Futures Rise As Markets Shrug Off Iran Strike Fallout: 'Worst Is Now In The Rear-View Mirror,' Says Top Analyst

Cambium Networks (NASDAQ: CMBM) today announced three standout hospitality Wi-Fi upgrades: DelParco Hotel in Udine, Italy; Maples Motor Inn in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee; and a portfolio of Hawaiian resorts modernized by systems integrator Pacific DirectConnect. All sites replaced legacy gear with Cambium's cloud-managed ONE Network—improving coverage, virtually eliminating support calls, and, in Hawaii, cutting planned outdoor AP counts by 60 percent while boosting guest-satisfaction scores.
&nbsp;
DelParco replaced multiple legacy systems with a full Cambium solution stack, including the NSE 3000 next–generation firewall, EX2028P/EX1028P aggregation and access switches, XV2–22H in–room wall plate APs, and XV2–21X APs in common areas—all orchestrated by the cnMaestro&#x2122; X cloud. Guests stream 4K content without buffering, staff applications run faster, and the hotel has recorded zero unplanned downtime since the cut–over.
"With our hospitality solutions, boutique properties can outperform brand–flags on connectivity without an army of IT staff," said Morgan Kurk, CEO, Cambium Networks.
"The solution installed by Giemme Soluzioni allows us to offer uncompromised connectivity that aligns with the high standards and image of our facility," added Paolo Meroi, Owner, DelParco Hotel.
Early Guest Feedback Turns Tech Gains into Revenue
Within weeks, DelParco's front desk saw a 75 % drop in Wi–Fi support calls, and OTA survey scores for "Internet Quality" jumped into the top quartile of comparable Italian hotels.
Quickrelay, a Cambium partner, installed 40 XV2-21X Wi-Fi 6 access points across 80 rooms, connected via fiber-backed EX-series switches. 'We chose Cambium for its feature-rich platform and single-pane cloud management,' said Chad Ellis, founder of Quickrelay. Within 30 days, guest Wi-Fi tickets fell to near zero while OTA scores for 'Internet Quality' climbed 30 points.
"Granular control over VLANs and application policies let us meet every vendor security requirement without on-site IT staff,' added Chad Ellis, Quickrelay."
Hawaii-based systems integrator <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4453331-1&amp;h=3760993667&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cambiumnetworks.com%2Fresource%2Fboosting-property-value-and-guest-satisfaction-pacific-directconnects-success-with-cambium-networks%2F&amp;a=Pacific+DirectConnect">Pacific DirectConnect</a> upgraded multiple upscale resorts with Cambium's Wi-Fi 6 indoor/outdoor access points, cnMatrix&#x2122; switches and cnMaestro&#x2122; X cloud management. By swapping 14 planned outdoor APs for just six XV2-23T units, the team reduced hardware by 60 % while still blanketing pool decks, conference centers and beachfront hammocks with strong signal.
Hotel managers say guest-satisfaction scores climbed sharply once the new network went live, confirming that reliable connectivity is now as essential as ocean views.
Together with wins at Maples Motor Inn and DelParco Hotel, the Pacific DirectConnect success underscores Cambium Networks' momentum as a preferred Wi-Fi backbone for the hospitality industry.
Global Momentum: Exceeding 1,000 Deployments and Counting
Cambium's hospitality footprint spans well over 1,000 hotels in more than 70 countries. Properties range from boutique inns to 1,000–room resorts, all managed through the same ONE Network architecture.
Future–Proof From Day One
The hotel's backbone is multi–gigabit, enabling DelParco to slot in Cambium's X7–35X Wi–Fi 7 access points—which recently received OpenRoaming&#x2122; certification—in the future without re-cabling or service disruption.

Cango Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CANG#NYSE">CANG</a>) ("Cango" or the "Company") today announced that it has entered into the fourth amendment (the "Fourth Amendment") to the On-Rack Sales and Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") dated November 6, 2024 for the acquisitions of on-rack crypto mining machines with an aggregate hashrate of 18 Exahash per second through issuance of Class A ordinary shares of the Company to the sellers (the "Share-Settled Transactions").
&nbsp;
The Company announced signing of the Purchase Agreement on November 6, 2024, and amendments to the agreement on March 26, 2025, April 3, 2025 and June 4, 2025. The Fourth Amendment adjusted the split of hashrate represented by the crypto mining machines sold by certain sellers, including Golden TechGen Limited ("GT"), Fortune Peak Limited and Silver Crest Limited, and accordingly, adjusted the split of the number of Class A ordinary shares to be issued to these sellers at closing and the bonus shares that may be issued to these sellers upon the bonus triggering&nbsp;event as provided in the original Purchase Agreement. Upon closing of the Share-Settled Transactions as amended (and before completion of the transactions contemplated by the definitive agreement announced by the Company on June 2, 2025), GT, which is expected to be the largest seller in these transactions, will own approximately 19.85% of the Company's total outstanding shares. The total hashrate represented by the crypto mining machines sold by all sellers, the total number of Class A ordinary shares of the Company to be issued to all sellers at the closing and the total number of bonus shares to be issued to all sellers upon the bonus triggering&nbsp;event remain unchanged.
The closing of the Share-Settled Transactions is subject to certain closing conditions that are yet to be satisfied or waived and the Company is working with the relevant parties towards the closing of the Share-Settled Transactions. There can be no assurance that the closing conditions will be satisfied nor that the Share-Settled Transactions will be completed before the contemplated closing date stipulated in the Purchase Agreement or at all.

The Wall Street Journal Reported Alibaba Is Folding Its Food Delivery, Online Travel Services Into Core E-Commerce Unit

Alibaba Group Holding (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NASDAQ">BABA</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/alibaba" rel="noreferrer noopener">is merging its</a> food delivery platform Ele.me and online travel agency Fliggy into its core&nbsp;e-commerce&nbsp;business.
The restructuring signifies Alibaba&#8217;s strategic rechanneling of resources towards its core revenue drivers, a move necessitated by fierce domestic rivalry in the on-demand delivery sector with JD.com (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JD#NASDAQ">JD</a>) and Meituan.
Meituan&#8217;s daily orders reportedly reached 90 million recently, while JD.com&#8217;s service hit 25 million orders earlier in June.

Alibaba announced on Monday that daily orders have reached 60 million.
Ele.me CEO Fan Yu and Fliggy CEO Zhuang Zhuoran will report directly to Jiang Fan, who leads Alibaba&#8217;s E-commerce Business Group, SCMP <a target="_blank" href="https://www.scmp.com/tech/big-tech/article/3315436/alibaba-merges-delivery-platform-eleme-and-travel-agency-fliggy-e-commerce-group" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a> on Monday, citing Alibaba CEO&nbsp;Eddie Wu Yongming&#8217;s internal memo.
Alibaba&#8217;s E-commerce Business Group supervised domestic platforms Tmall and Taobao and the company&#8217;s global e-commerce operations.
The fierce competition in China&#8217;s on-demand delivery and e-commerce sectors is pushing major players to innovate. As rivals like JD.com and Meituan ramp up their logistics, Alibaba is fortifying its delivery network.
Demonstrating this focus, in April, Alibaba launched a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45105930/alibaba-instant-commerce-delivery" rel="noreferrer noopener">new rapid-delivery feature</a> on its Taobao shopping platform, directly addressing the consumer demand for quicker receipt of goods and aiming to stay ahead in the delivery race.
Reportedly, JD.com sought to hire tens of thousands of full-time riders. Meanwhile, Meituan held a commanding 70% of China&#8217;s food delivery market, as <a target="_blank" href="https://www.scmp.com/tech/big-tech/article/3315095/meituans-food-delivery-market-dominance-china-remains-stable-70-report-says" rel="noreferrer noopener">cited</a> by SCMP, which referenced Leiphone.com last week.
Meituan has been aggressively expanding globally through its Keeta brand to beat the domestic slowdown. Since launching in 2023, it has held a 44% market share in Hong Kong, SCMP cited a March 2024 survey by Measurable AI.
Meituan launched Keeta in Saudi Arabia and plans to&nbsp;launch it in Brazil. JD.com will reveal a new food delivery model in July.
According to Bocom International, as cited by SCMP, in 2024, Meituan held 65% of the food delivery market, with Ele.me at 33%.
Price Action:&nbsp;BABA shares are trading lower by&nbsp;0.50% to&nbsp;112.45&nbsp;premarket at&nbsp;last check Monday.

Alibaba Integrates Ele.me And Fliggy Into Core Business To Battle Rivals In Delivery War

Chevron U.S.A., a subsidiary of Chevron Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>), announced its intention to enter the lithium market last week by acquiring lease rights to approximately 125,000 net acres spanning northeast Texas and southwest Arkansas.
The rights, acquired from TerraVolta Resources and East Texas Natural Resources, give the firm access to the Smackover Formation – a geologic unit rich in <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/lithium" rel="noreferrer noopener">lithium-bearing brine</a>.
"This acquisition represents a strategic investment to support energy manufacturing and expand U.S.-based critical mineral supplies," <a target="_blank" href="https://www.chevron.com/newsroom/2025/q2/chevron-enters-domestic-lithium-sector-to-support-us-energy-security" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a> Jeff Gustavson, president of Chevron New Energies.

"Establishing domestic and resilient lithium supply chains is essential not only to maintaining U.S. energy leadership but also to meeting the growing demand from customers. This opportunity builds on many of Chevron's strengths, including subsurface resource development and value chain integration," he added.
The Smackover Formation is famous for its high lithium content and established infrastructure. The brine, a byproduct of oil and gas production, makes diversification particularly appealing for oil majors looking to expand into other markets without straying too far from their core expertise. The repurposing of these brine reservoirs presents both a low-carbon opportunity and a cost-effective path into the critical minerals sector.
Chevron plans to employ <a target="_blank" href="https://lithium.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Direct-Lithium-Extraction-DLE-An-introduction-ILiA-June-2024-v.1-English-web.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">direct lithium extraction</a> (DLE) technologies to process the brine. Unlike conventional methods, which rely on vast evaporation ponds that require months and consume large amounts of land and water, DLE utilizes advanced materials to extract lithium ions from brine selectively.
The technology promises a faster, more efficient extraction process with a smaller environmental footprint. While DLE is still an emerging technique, it's gaining traction among energy giants aiming to modernize domestic lithium production.
Through this effort, Chevron has joined another domestic oil major, ExxonMobil (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>), which is advancing its own <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/02/37182798/exxons-lithium-experiment-could-be-winner-for-oil-company-state-of-arkansas" rel="noreferrer noopener">DLE project in Arkansas</a> through the subsidiary Mobil Lithium.
Exxon acquired 485 square kilometers of Smackover acreage in 2023 and aims to supply enough lithium for one million electric vehicles per year by 2030. The company has already inked a preliminary supply agreement with battery manufacturer SK On.
Despite lithium prices plunging from a high of $80,000 per ton in 2022 to around $8,400 today, the interest from Chevron, ExxonMobil, and others signals a longer-term bet.
These oil majors are acquiring lease rights and investing in capital expenditures during the market downturn, positioning themselves to be key suppliers when the rebound arrives.

Chevron Joins Lithium Race With 125,000-Acre Texas-Arkansas Deal

The shares of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) climbed 1.50% during Monday&#8217;s pre-market session, after it unveiled its Robotaxi in Austin, marking a significant milestone in the self-driving taxi industry in the United States.
What Happened: The launch event, which&nbsp;took place on Sunday in Austin&#8217;s South&nbsp;Congress neighborhood, featured&nbsp;over 10 Tesla Model Y&nbsp;Robotaxis. The event was exclusive, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46045542/tesla-launches-robotaxi-in-austin-elon-musk-calls-it-a-culmination-of-a-decade-of-hard-work">social media influencers</a> as the main riders, who used a dedicated app to book their rides.
Tesla had safety monitors&nbsp;in the front seat during&nbsp;the rides, although the extent of their control over the Robotaxi, which was operating on Unsupervised FSD, was not confirmed.
Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, celebrated the launch on social media, describing it as the&nbsp;&#8220;culmination of a decade of&nbsp;hard work&#8221;. He further revealed that both the AI Chip and&nbsp;the software team responsible for&nbsp;the Robotaxi were built entirely within Tesla.
Additionally, Tesla also announced its plans to invest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46046720/tesla-doubles-down-on-us-elon-musk-plans-another-8-billion-investment-after-spending-nearly-10-billion-in-2024">$8 billion in manufacturing in the U.S. in 2025</a>, after investing $10 billion in 2024.
Why It Matters: The launch of the Robotaxi comes as Tesla has been hinting at its entry into the self-driving taxi market to compete with companies like&nbsp;Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>)&nbsp;Waymo and Amazon.com Inc.&#8217;s&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Zoox.
Meanwhile, Tesla&nbsp;has been under the scrutiny&nbsp;of U.S. safety regulators, with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reviewing the company&#8217;s responses regarding the performance of its Full Self-Driving (FSD) system in adverse weather conditions. Notably, former Tesla AI Chief&nbsp;Andrej Karpathy&nbsp;recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46046691/ex-tesla-ai-chief-andrej-karpathy-says-self-driving-still-isnt-solved-after-a-decade">expressed skepticism</a>&nbsp;about the industry&#8217;s ability to solve the challenge of autonomous driving. 
Earlier, Wedbush analyst&nbsp;Dan Ives&nbsp;had&nbsp;predicted a transformative future&nbsp;for Tesla, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/46034667/teslas-ai-future-is-worth-1-trillion-says-dan-ives-golden-era-of-autonomous-begins-with-robotaxi-launch">valuing its AI</a> and autonomous driving technology at a staggering $1 trillion.

Tesla Stock Climbs Nearly 2% In Monday Pre-Market: What's Going On?

Steve Jobs once likened a high-performing team to "common stones" spinning in a rock tumbler, noisy, abrasive and ultimately polished to brilliance.
What Happened: The anecdote, recorded in a 1995 interview for PBS's "Triumph of the Nerds" and rediscovered after his death, captures what the Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) co-founder saw as the alchemy of collaboration.
Jobs told <a href="https://sameerbajaj.com/jobs/">interviewer</a> Bob Cringely that, as a boy, a widower neighbor showed him a homemade tumbler, "a motor and a coffee can and a little band between them," filled with "regular old ugly rocks," water and grit. After a night of clattering, the stones emerged "amazingly beautiful," he recalled.
The tumbling, he said, mirrors "incredibly talented people bumping up against each other, having arguments, having fights sometimes, making some noise" until both ideas and individuals are refined. Jobs, then running NeXT and poised to return to Apple, argued that the best companies court constructive friction. &#8220;…Working together, they polish each other and they polish the ideas,&#8221; he remarked.

According to an NBC <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/better/careers/what-steve-jobs-taught-me-about-debate-workplace-n732956">article</a> from 2017, former colleagues say Jobs organized project rooms so engineers and designers could not avoid debate, a practice later echoed in Apple's iPhone and Pixar's story-brain sessions.
Why It Matters: Steve Jobs routinely engineered tension to sharpen ideas, whether by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45943213/steve-jobs-shared-this-work-habit-with-elon-musk-and-jeff-bezos-says-pixar-exec-but-vows-never-to-repeat-it">ringing Pixar colleagues</a> "at any time, day or night, three in the morning" and expecting instant answers, a habit Pete Docter says he now refuses to copy.
His intolerance for half-measures surfaced again this month when tech watchers joked that Jobs would "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45852236/steve-jobs-would-have-fired-everyone-apples-liquid-glass-in-ios-26-gets-roasted-online-dan-ives-calls-wwdc-2025-a-yawner">have fired everyone</a>" over a lackluster iOS interface, an exaggeration that nonetheless echoed stories of him dismissing teams that failed to hit the mark on the first iPhone's glass swap and other last-minute pivots.
Yet the same razor-edged perfectionism often came wrapped in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45989119/steve-jobs-once-gave-a-secretary-a-brand-new-jaguar-out-of-the-blue-here-is-why-the-apple-co-founder-was-so-generous">jolts of generosity</a> meant to keep morale high. Former quality chief Ron Givens recalls Jobs buying a tardy secretary a new Jaguar on the spot, a reward delivered only after a public grilling about her commitment.
