LANGHORNE, Pa., Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- TEN Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: XHLD) ("TEN Holdings" or the "Company"), through its subsidiary, Ten Events, Inc., a technology platform for enterprise-grade webcasts and virtual events, today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a new share repurchase program of up to $2.0 million and approved the establishment of a strategic technology and engineering relationship with GLSoft Corp. ("GLSoft").

$2.0 Million Share Repurchase Program

Under the newly authorized share repurchase program, TEN Holdings may repurchase up to $2.0 million of its outstanding common stock through December 31, 2026. Repurchases may be made from time to time through open-market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or other transactions deemed appropriate by the Company, including pursuant to trading plans or arrangements intended to comply with Rule 10b5-1 and/or Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The timing, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined based on market conditions, the trading price of the Company's common stock, available liquidity, applicable securities laws, contractual restrictions and other relevant factors.

The authorization does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number or dollar amount of shares, and the program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time.

In connection with the authorization of the new program, the Board also approved the termination of the Company's existing share repurchase program administered through Bancroft Capital, LLC.

"We believe the authorization of this new share repurchase program provides us with an additional tool to strategically allocate capital while maintaining the flexibility necessary to continue investing in the growth of our business," said Virgilio Torres, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TEN Holdings, Inc. "Following the strengthening of our balance sheet earlier this year, we believe it is important to maintain a disciplined approach to capital allocation. This authorization allows us to evaluate opportunistic repurchases when we believe they represent an attractive use of capital, while continuing to prioritize investments in technology, product development and long-term growth."

Strategic Technology Relationship with GLSoft Corp.

The Board has also authorized TEN Holdings to establish a strategic relationship with GLSoft, providing the Company with the ability to utilize GLSoft's engineering, software development and broader technology capabilities as opportunities arise.

The relationship is expected to provide TEN Holdings with additional flexibility to pursue product engineering, software and technology development, platform integrations, technical support, technology licensing, redistribution, resale and commercialization initiatives.

Rather than committing the Company to a specific project or minimum expenditure, the authorization enables management to identify and pursue individual development and technology initiatives with GLSoft when management determines that doing so is beneficial to the Company and consistent with its strategic objectives.

"Expanding our technology and engineering capabilities is a critical component of where we want to take TEN Holdings," Torres continued. "Our objective is to evolve beyond a traditional webinar and virtual-events offering and build a broader, more scalable technology platform. Having the ability to leverage additional engineering and development resources through relationships such as GLSoft gives us greater flexibility to accelerate product development, evaluate new technologies and bring additional capabilities to market."

The GLSoft authorization complements TEN Holdings' previously announced strategy to invest in expanded product functionality, automation, analytics, artificial intelligence and other technologies designed to increase the scalability of its platform and broaden its addressable market.

Calkins Joins OutKick Following Departure from The Seattle Times

NEW YORK, Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- National multimedia sports platform OutKick announced today the signing of Matt Calkins, the former Seattle Times sports columnist. Calkins will join OutKick as a columnist, covering sports and culture, effective immediately.

Prior to joining OutKick, Calkins spent eleven years with The Seattle Times covering local college and professional sports, as well as national events including the Super Bowl and World Cup. Calkins garnered national attention after resigning from the paper in August following its decision to not publish a column he wrote about two female student-athletes who opposed competing against biological males. Previously, Calkins was a preps writer at the Riverside Press-Enterprise and a columnist at the San Diego Union Tribune. He has also been named National Sports Columnist of the Year three times.

In commenting on the announcement, FOX News Digital's Editorial Executive Vice President Tommy Firth said, "Authenticity and common sense are at the heart of what we do at OutKick and are qualities FOX News Digital looks for when hiring new talent. Calkins clearly embodies both, and he will be a great addition to our team."

Calkins added, "While my decision to leave The Seattle Times wasn't easy, I'm beyond excited to start this new chapter at OutKick. I've always admired OutKick's coverage and its willingness to never shy away from any topic."

The addition of Calkins is another example of OutKick driving the conversation at the intersection of sports and culture, including the debate over biological males competing in women's sports. OutKick has been at the forefront of this national conversation and continues to ask the questions other sports sites won't. Most recently, OutKick was on the ground at WNBA games asking head coaches if they oppose transgender women competing in women sports after Sophie Cunningham spoke out on this issue.

OutKick also announced that Craig Carton has signed to host The Craig Carton Show and the platform has integrated as the official sports brand of FOX News Digital as well as refreshed its branding.

In August 2026, OutKick recorded its highest month of all time with 13 million total desktop and mobile unique visitors, up 19% versus the prior month and up 179% versus the prior year, 71 million total multiplatform views, up 30% versus the prior month and up 236% versus the prior year, and 72 million total multiplatform minutes, up 9% versus the prior month and 178% versus the prior year, according to Comscore.

Authenticated deadstock sneakers, from Jordan and Nike staples to coveted grails, all at one price, with instant buyback

NEW YORK, Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Courtyard, the entertainment shopping platform pioneering a new category of commerce built around discovery and reveal, announced today the launch of Courtyard Sneakers, bringing its signature discovery experience to the sneaker market for the first time with the Courtyard Sneakers Pack.

For $275, sneakerheads discover their pair from a curated collection of authenticated deadstock sneakers, from Jordan and Nike staples to coveted grails rarely available on the sneakers resale market, with the option to keep, ship, instantly sell back or post for sale on the Courtyard Marketplace.

Where other platforms sort inventory by price tier and optimize for volume, Courtyard curates for quality and rarity with transparency as all Sneaker Packs include clear and easy to find information so that users can make informed decisions. Every sneaker is certified authentic before it enters the vault. The only unknown is which pair gets revealed to shoppers, whether it's one they love or one with a cultural story they'll appreciate.

Courtyard Sneakers' inventory includes some of the most coveted Nike and Jordan releases available, from the Jordan 1 High Off-White Chicago and Mars Yard 2.0 to the Nike SB AF1 Pink Foam Friends & Family and other rare pairs that seldom hit the resale market. After the reveal, sneaker enthusiasts choose to ship it home, hold it in Courtyard's secure vault, or sell it back at fair market value, no questions asked.

"At Courtyard, we're delivering a shopping experience built on the excitement of discovery," says co-founder and CEO Nico Le Jeune. "Every pair in our inventory is worth owning, from deadstock staples to pairs most enthusiasts will never find anywhere else. We built this for the hardcore collectors, the cultural trendsetters, and anyone ready to cop with confidence knowing the worst case scenario is a keeper and the best is a grail."

The launch of Courtyard Sneakers marks the latest expansion in Courtyard's rapid growth. The platform has grown from $50,000 in monthly transaction volume in January 2024 to $2 billion annualized today, across trading cards, luxury watches, comics and coins. Sneakers are the newest category, and the same entertainment shopping model that transformed how people discover and trade collectibles is now coming to one of the most passion-driven categories in culture.

MIAMI, Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Miami-Dade is on track to break its annual $10M+ home sales record by year-end, providing another robust example of the tremendous wealth migration flowing into South Florida, according to August 2026 statistics released by MIAMI REALTORS® + RWorld, the MIAMI MLS, and BeachesMLS.

Through August 2026, Miami-Dade has recorded 194 home sales of $10 million or more – already 14.1% above its full-year 2025 total of 170 transactions. At this current pace, the county is projected to finish 2026 with about 291 $10M+ home sales. That would smash the previous record of 230 sales, set in 2021 during the pandemic-fueled buying frenzy.

"Miami and South Florida continue to break real estate records," MIAMI REALTORS® + RWorld Chairman of the Board Alfredo Pujol said. "A banner year even with elevated mortgage rates. But it is also important to point out our condo market, the entry-market for first-time buyers, continues to see a rise in total year-over-year transactions, particularly near the median price point. Miami offers opportunities for buyers across a range of price points."

Latest South Florida real estate rankings/stats:

- Leader in Wage Growth: The Miami MSA Metro area saw a $3.6 billion gain in wage earnings due to net job migration in the four quarters ending Q1 2025 (latest data available via U.S. Census) via MIAMI REALTORS® + RWorld Research.

- #1 in Home Equity: South Florida single-family homeowners who purchased a home 15 years ago have over $500,000 in home equity compared to $333,700 nationally as of 2026 Q2 via MIAMI REALTORS® + RWorld Research.

- #1 Ultra-Luxury Market in the U.S.: South Florida averages one $10M home sale per day. In 2025, South Florida posted the most $20M & up condo sales in its history; the second-most $10M & up total home sales in history; and more.

- #1 Market in the U.S. for Cash Buyers: 82% of Miami $1M & up condo sales were all-cash in 2025. The Miami MSA leads the nation in all-cash sales, which means many buyers are operating on liquidity, not debt.

Miami Condo Sales Rise Year-over-Year

Condo sales increased 1% year-over-year in August 2026, from 903 to 911. Condos priced near the median price point, from $500K to $600K, saw a 32% year-over-year sales growth, increasing from 78 to 103.

Total home sales decreased 1.1% year-over-year to 1,769 transactions in August 2026. The decrease is due to elevated mortgage rates and lack of inventory in certain price points. Miami total home sales had increased year-over-year for 11 consecutive months before August 2026. Single-family home transactions declined 3.1% year over year to 858.

The sales total doesn't include South Florida's new construction, pre-construction and condo conversion sales because they are largely not reported in the MLS. But MIAMI led the charge to publish two new construction reports.

International buyers purchased 49% of new South Florida construction, pre-construction and condo conversion sales over an 18-month period ending in July 2025, according to MIAMI REALTORS® first-ever New Construction Global Sales Report in collaboration with industry leaders.

Our second New Construction Global Sales Report, published in November 2025, showed an increase in global sales and buyers from 73 countries, according to the MIAMI REALTORS® November 2025 Global Sales Report in collaboration with industry leaders.

The lack of Federal Housing Administration loans for many existing Miami condominium buildings is preventing further market strengthening. Of the 2,397 condominium buildings in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties, only 21 are approved for FHA loans, according to statistics from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Just 0.9% of South Florida condo buildings are approved for FHA loans.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac eliminated the limited review option for many condo loans on Aug. 3, 2026. For decades, Florida condominium borrowers and owners faced stricter lending standards and higher financing hurdles than those in many other states. The updated guidelines are expected to create a more transparent and financially secure lending environment.

Miami-Dade Condominium Sale Prices Have Appreciated 259% Since 2011

Miami condo prices have increased 259% since 2011, from $113,800 to $408,000. Miami condos are a long-time national leader in price appreciation. Prices decreased 0.49% year-over-year in August 2026, from $410,000 to $408,000. Condo inventory is declining year-over-year, which will put upward pressure on prices.

Miami condo median prices have stayed even or increased in 166 of the last 183 months (14+ years).

Miami-Dade County single-family home median sale prices increased 3.82% year-over-year in August 2026, from $655,000 to $680,000. Miami single-family median prices have risen in 174 of the last 178 months (14+ years).

Miami single-family prices have risen 293.7% since 2011, from $172,700 to $680,000.

MIAMI REALTORS® + RWorld continues to support cross-sector stakeholder solutions – like removing obstacles to permitting and zoning, funding the Florida Hometown Heroes Program, and creating pathways for accessory dwelling units (ADUs) – to facilitate both the creation and preservation of safe and affordable housing.

Miami's surging multifamily market and the Florida Live Local Act should boost affordability in the future. Southeast Florida ranks No. 1 in the U.S. for most multifamily construction, according to MIAMI REALTORS® Research. This is important because it adds more overall housing/apartment supply to a city, creates more affordability and adds to Miami's economic growth.

Florida's Live Local Act, which was passed in 2023 and amended in May 2024, is encouraging developers to build more affordable housing. The Live Local Act gives developers the highest density allowed in a local area if they allocate 40% of its units for affordable housing. The state law defines an affordable unit as being at or below 120% of an area's median income.

Miami remains a bargain in comparison to other global cities. For $1M, homebuyers can purchase 58 square meters of prime property in Miami, according to the 2026 Knight Frank Wealth Report. That is almost four times more than Monaco (16 square meters), nearly two times more than New York (34) and London (33) and more than Paris (37), Tokyo (37) and more.

Mortgage Rates Climb over 7%

The benchmark 10-year Treasury yield is at its highest levels in 19 years as oil prices surge from the Iran conflict. Mortgage rates have started climbing.  

According to Freddie Mac, the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage was 6.67% in August 2026. But rates have climbed since the start of September with rates at 7.17% as of Sept. 15, 2026. Home sales are sensitive to mortgage rate increases.

"With mortgage rates poised to remain above 6.7% through year-end, expect more cash and high-end buyers to drive the South Florida real estate market and for well-priced homes to sell quickly," MIAMI REALTORS® + RWorld Chief Economist Gay Cororaton said.

Total Miami Inventory Declines for Seventh Consecutive Month; Single-Family in Seller's Market

Total active listings at the end of August 2026 decreased 12.1% year-over-year, from 17,998 to 15,825. Decreasing supply means more buyer competition and upward price pressure.

Inventory of single-family homes decreased 19.23% year-over-year in August 2026 from 5,361 active listings last year to 4,330 last month.

Condo inventory declined for the seventh consecutive month. Condominium inventory decreased 9.04% year-over-year in August 2026, from 12,637 to 11,495 listings during the same period in 2025, but the total is still significantly below pre-pandemic.

Months' supply of inventory for single-family homes is 4.9 months, which indicates a seller's market. Inventory for existing condominiums is 12.1 months, which indicates a buyer's market. A balanced market between buyers and sellers offers between six- and nine-months supply.

Nationally, total housing inventory is 1.62 million units, according to NAR. That is up 5.9% from August 2025. There is 4.9-month supply of unsold inventory, unchanged from one year ago.

Miami Real Estate: $228 Million in Local Economic Impact

Every time a home is sold it impacts the economy: income generated from real estate industries (commissions, fees and moving expenses), expenditures related to home purchase (furniture and remodeling expenses), multiplier of housing related expenditures (income earned as a result of a home sale is re-circulated into the economy) and new construction (additional home sales induce added home production).

The total economic impact of a typical Florida home sale is $129,000, according to NAR. Miami-Dade sold 1,769 homes in August 2026 for a local economic impact of $228 million.

Miami-Dade total dollar volume decreased 2.7% year-over-year in August 2026 to $1.6 billion.

Single-family home dollar volume decreased 3.45% year-over-year to $985 million. Condo dollar volume decreased 1.51% year-over-year to $661 million.

Miami Distressed Sales Remain at Historic Lows, Reflecting Healthy Market

Only 0.3% of all closed residential sales in Miami were distressed last month, including REO (bank-owned properties) and short sales. In 2009, distressed sales comprised 70% of Miami sales.

Short sales and REOs accounted for 0.3% and 0%, respectively, of total Miami sales in August 2026.

State & National Sales

In Florida, closed sales of single-family homes statewide totaled 21,497 in August 2026, down 1.4% year-over-year, while existing condo-townhouse sales totaled 7,291, down 1.8%.

The statewide median sales price for single-family existing homes was $415,000, up 1.2% year-over-year, according to data from Florida Realtors Research Department in partnership with local Realtor boards/associations. Last month's statewide median price for condo-townhouse units was $298,000, up 2.8% vs. last year.

The article explains how umbrella insurance extends liability coverage beyond standard home and auto policies for Arizona homeowners.

ORO VALLEY, Ariz., Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- What should Arizona homeowners understand about umbrella insurance and the protection it provides? That question is answered in a HelloNation article featuring insights from Shawn Hellebuyck of Oakley Insurance Group, which explains how umbrella insurance adds a layer of liability coverage beyond standard home and auto policies.

The HelloNation article explains that umbrella insurance is designed to provide protection when claims exceed the limits of existing policies. Standard home policy and auto policy limits may not always be sufficient in cases involving serious accidents, liability lawsuits, or significant property damage. Umbrella insurance supplements these policies by providing additional liability coverage once underlying limits have been reached.

According to the article, umbrella insurance functions as a financial safety net that helps protect Arizona homeowners from large liability claims. Legal settlements, medical costs, and related expenses can quickly exceed the limits of a home policy or auto policy. The article notes that umbrella insurance coverage activates once those underlying limits are exhausted, helping cover additional legal fees, settlements, or damages that might otherwise create significant financial risk.

The article also explains that umbrella insurance coverage often extends to situations that standard policies may not fully address. In addition to bodily injury and property damage claims, umbrella policies may include protection related to defamation, libel, slander, or certain legal claims involving personal liability. This broader scope of coverage can help homeowners safeguard personal assets from unexpected legal exposure.

Rising property values and increasing legal settlements have made umbrella insurance an important consideration for many Arizona homeowners. The article notes that homeowners with significant assets or higher liability exposure may face increased financial risk if a major claim exceeds the limits of their primary insurance coverage. Umbrella insurance helps address this risk by adding additional protection in increments that typically begin at one million dollars.

Understanding how umbrella insurance interacts with existing coverage is also important. The HelloNation article explains that umbrella policies require minimum limits on underlying home policy and auto policy coverage before the umbrella protection can take effect. Licensed agents often help clients review their existing policies to ensure that required limits are in place so the umbrella insurance functions properly when claims arise.

Cost is another factor addressed in the article. While umbrella insurance provides substantial additional liability coverage, the premiums are often modest relative to the level of protection offered. The article explains that costs may vary depending on factors such as the number of vehicles, properties, and the overall liability exposure of the household.

Claims coordination is also discussed as an important aspect of umbrella insurance coverage. When claims involve multiple policies, it is important that coverage is applied correctly and efficiently. The article notes that agencies with strong claims support can help ensure that home policy, auto policy, and umbrella insurance coverage work together when a claim exceeds standard limits.

Flexibility is another benefit highlighted in the article. Umbrella insurance policies can often be adjusted as a homeowner's financial situation changes. As households acquire additional assets or face new liability risks, policy limits can be increased to maintain adequate protection. Regular reviews help ensure that coverage remains aligned with a homeowner's current circumstances.

In summary, the HelloNation article explains that umbrella insurance provides Arizona homeowners with an important layer of liability coverage beyond the limits of standard home and auto policies. By helping cover large claims, legal expenses, and unexpected liabilities, umbrella insurance can protect assets and reduce financial risk for homeowners seeking long-term protection.

JUPITER, Fla., Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Myosin Therapeutics, Inc., a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing a new class of therapies targeting cancer cell mechanics, today announced its selection as a 2026–2027 National Cancer Institute (NCI) Investor Initiatives Showcase Company.

Myosin is one of only 30 companies selected from NCI's portfolio of funded companies for the 2026–2027 Showcase cohort. Companies were chosen through a competitive private-sector peer review process involving more than 70 third-party investors and strategic partners.

The cohort represents emerging oncology innovators across biopharmaceuticals, medical devices, diagnostics and digital health, including first-in-class therapeutics, cell and immune therapies, radioligand therapies, antibody-drug conjugates, RNA medicines, precision drug delivery, AI-enabled cancer technologies, liquid biopsy and multi-omics platforms. Myosin joins this innovative group with a differentiated approach targeting molecular nanomotors and the physical machinery cancer cells depend on for growth, invasion, and survival.

"We are honored to be selected by NCI for the Investor Initiatives Showcase," said Courtney Miller, PhD, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Myosin Therapeutics. "NCI has been an important partner throughout the development of MT-125 and their continued support of our differentiated approach to oncology comes at an exciting point for our clinical program."

Myosin's lead clinical-stage oncology asset, MT-125, is a first-in-class, brain penetrant dual non-muscle myosin inhibitor in the NCI-supported Phase 1/2 STAR-GBM clinical trial. MT-125 has received FDA Fast Track designation for glioblastoma and Orphan Drug designation for malignant gliomas. GBM provides a capital-efficient entry point to a broader pan-cancer platform spanning solid and hematologic malignancies. Myosin's molecular nanomotor platform also extends beyond oncology through MT-110, an NIH-supported, IND-stage NMIIB-selective CNS asset.

Selection into the Showcase provides opportunities to present to investors and strategic partners at industry events, and NCI will feature Myosin in its 2026–2027 Showcase Companies Book. This builds upon NCI's longstanding non-dilutive support of MT-125.
