NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 17, 2025 / Markets prefer simple explanations. A vertical chart invites familiar labels. Momentum. Speculation. A passing frenzy. That framing misses what actually happened with SMX (NASDAQ:SMX).

Since November, SMX has advanced more than 1,900%, closing at $116 on Tuesday. Moves of that magnitude are often dismissed as temporary dislocations. This one behaved differently. It did not trade like a narrative spike. It traded like a repricing event, the kind that occurs when markets realize they misunderstood the underlying structure.

This was not enthusiasm discovering a story. It was the market discovering what SMX actually is: a transformative force in how the world will view supply chains from this point forward. At least the smart ones.

When Price Moves Before Consensus Forms

It’s trading as it should. In foreign exchange markets, major moves often occur before consensus catches up. A shift in settlement mechanics, liquidity, or structural assumptions forces the price to adjust immediately. Explanations follow later.

SMX fits that pattern. For decades, global supply chains relied on declarations. Materials were assumed to be what paperwork said they were. Regulators tolerated this because scalable alternatives did not exist, and markets priced that assumption as a constant. That constant broke.

SMX built a system that assigns immutable molecular identity at the material level. Not at the document level. Not at the company level. In the material itself. Once that capability exists, everything downstream changes. Compliance becomes provable. Verification replaces assumption. Markets are efficient at repricing certainty, especially when it appears suddenly.

This was not gradual discovery. It was realization.

Why SMX Traded Like Infrastructure, Not a Microcap

Microcaps usually trade on potential. Infrastructure trades on necessity. SMX spent years priced as the former while functioning as the latter. Even while telling just how transformative, and timely, its technology can be and is.

When that disconnect corrected, the float structure mattered immediately. Supply was not built for discovery. It was built for obscurity. As interest increased and available shares tightened, price adjusted accordingly. That dynamic explains why the move did not fade after the first surge. It reset.

Markets recalibrated around a different understanding of value rather than chasing a transient trade. That is how SMX briefly reached levels near $490 before gravity and consolidation took hold.

Identity as a Settlement Requirement

Both moves make sense. Physical supply chains have operated on trust for decades, relying on declarations instead of proof. That model no longer holds under regulatory pressure, sustainability mandates, and geopolitical fragmentation. The initial upside reflected that realization. Subsequent market dynamics and settlement mechanics exposed the gravitational forces at work. Both were natural outcomes of appraisals and repricing.

What matters now is the leveling of the playing field. SMX can do what it does best: address the root cause of supply chain and market inefficiencies by embedding identity directly into materials. Verification becomes intrinsic rather than reported. This is not an ESG narrative. It is a settlement narrative, and settlement narratives matter across every market because they determine what can be trusted at scale. Here’s where its PCT comes in.

The Plastic Cycle Token Is a Utility Layer

SMX’s Plastic Cycle Token is often misunderstood. It is not designed as a speculative instrument. It functions as a utility layer that assigns economic value to verified circularity rather than promised outcomes.

The focus is measurement. Incentives follow measurement. That framework resonates across regulated environments because it turns verification into something systems can settle against rather than debate.

Why the Move Was Rational

Extreme price moves appear irrational when viewed through the wrong lens. Viewed correctly, they often reflect delayed recognition.

SMX combined three forces at once. A technology that solved a real problem. A regulatory environment that suddenly required that solution. A float structure unable to absorb rapid attention. That combination does not produce orderly charts.

Markets did not get excited. They got informed.

The most important signal is not how far SMX moved, but why it moved at all. Verification is becoming a prerequisite for participation in global trade. Systems that provide it will not be valued as optional tools. They will be valued as infrastructure.

SMX crossed that threshold, and price followed.

About SMX

As global businesses face new and complex challenges relating to carbon neutrality and meeting new governmental and regional regulations and standards, SMX is able to offer players along the value chain access to its marking, tracking, measuring and digital platform technology to transition more successfully to a low-carbon economy.

Expanded state filing options extend TaxBandits’ compliance coverage ahead of 2026.

ROCK HILL, SC / ACCESS Newswire / December 17, 2025 / TaxBandits, an IRS-authorized e-file provider, has expanded its state tax form coverage ahead of the 2026 tax season that begins on Jan. 1, 2026.

“State filing requirements add complexity to year-end reporting, and our goal is to simplify that process for our clients,” said Naga Palanisamy, CEO of SPAN Enterprises. “This expansion strengthens our state coverage so filers can complete their federal and state submissions in one platform, improving consistency and reducing manual work.”

The expansion builds on TaxBandits’ existing state filing support for Forms 1099 and W-2. New additions include state-only W-2 filing, expanded reconciliation and transmittal form availability, state unemployment insurance reporting, and support for new hire reporting. These improvements broaden the range of state requirements that can be completed within the platform.

Expanding the selection of reconciliation and transmittal forms helps filers meet year-end reporting requirements in states that require confirmation of annual totals. These forms can be generated and downloaded after transmission for recordkeeping or additional state submission.

State-only W-2 form filing provides an option for businesses that must submit state forms without an accompanying federal filing, allowing these submissions to remain within one system.

Support for state unemployment insurance reporting and new hire reporting assists filers in meeting state requirements related to state unemployment programs and new hire reporting.

TaxBandits implements ongoing platform enhancements based on the latest IRS guidance to stay aligned with evolving state reporting requirements. These updates reflect the company’s broader commitment to innovation, including regular development of new compliance features, reporting capabilities, and security improvements across all supported forms.

Claims Would Strengthen Competitive Moat and Reinforce Market Leadership

Omnibus Application includes 167 Invention Claims Covering 5E’s End-to-End Borate Mining, Bolstering Long-term IP Protection

HESPERIA, CA / ACCESS Newswire / December 17, 2025 / 5E Advanced Materials, Inc. (“5E” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:FEAM)(ASX:5EA), a U.S. development-stage company focused on becoming a vertically integrated global leader and supplier of refined borates and advanced boron derivative materials, has filed an omnibus application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for a proprietary, closed-loop in-situ leach (ISL) mining and production process that has lowered 5E’s operating costs, reduced its environmental footprint, and, if granted, will create meaningful barriers to competitors seeking to replicate the Company’s ISL technology. The patent application includes 167 claims covering 5E’s mining process and production for boric acid, gypsum, sodium chloride, as well as the management of metal impurities. Over the coming weeks, 5E intends to file several additional standalone applications. The patents would form a cornerstone of 5E’s intellectual property portfolio, covering key steps from injection to recovery, processing, and reinjection.

“With 5E filing the omnibus application, we are taking an important step to secure the intellectual property that underpins our differentiated ISL mining and processing platform that has led to our technical successes,” said Paul Weibel, Chief Executive Officer of 5E Advanced Materials. “5E performed ISL pilot operations in the 1980’s and has been mining consistently for nearly two years. Building on this experience, our team developed a closed-loop process designed to lower costs, improve sustainability, and enhance mining efficiency. This patent filing is intended to protect that know-how and support our long-term commercial and strategic objectives through the protections provided by the USPTO.”

ISL borate mining techniques at the Fort Cady Project trace back to pilot programs in the early 1980s with the discovery of mineral resources dating to 1964. Primary exploration work and land acquisition occurred over the next two decades. A series of ISL pilot programs occurred on three separate occasions from 1981 to 1982, 1986 to 1987, and 1987 to 1988. The major permitting initiative commenced in 1990 with the Record of Decision from the United States Bureau of Land Management and a Conditional Use Permit and Reclamation Plan from the California Department of Conservation and San Bernardino County obtained in 1994. This unique history, combined with permits from federal, state and local agencies, positions 5E with one of the most strategically advanced and de-risked ISL boron assets in the United States.

5E obtained its approval to commence mining from the United States Environmental Protection Agency in November 2023 and recommenced ISL mining in January 2024. Mining occurs via ISL technology and initially utilized four vertical injection-recovery wells where recovered leached solution is processed at 5E’s Small-Scale Facility (SSF). In July 2025, two vertical injection-recovery wells were converted to horizontal wells with downhole fiber optics to pilot ISL techniques and demonstrate baseline head grades, temperatures, impurity profiles, injection rates, and recovery rates. Mined solution is processed into boric acid and gypsum at the SSF where it has demonstrated meeting the highest commercial product specifications.

The novel processing technology produces boric acid, gypsum and calcium chloride via ISL technology while regenerating hydrochloric acid via aqueous chemistry, with the overall mining process being a closed loop where mining feedstock is regenerated and recycled. This closed-loop ISL approach is designed to minimize waste, reduce reagent consumption, lower water and energy use, and limit surface disturbance compared with conventional open-pit mining. These advantages are aligned with increasing demand from customers and end-markets for more sustainable mineral production.

By submitting for patent protection for its proprietary ISL process in the United States, 5E aims to underpin a secure, domestic source of boron, a U.S.-designated critical mineral used in defense, clean energy, and high-tech applications, at a time when supply chain resilience has become a strategic priority for both government and industry. The patent filings align with 5E’s strategy to advance toward scaled production and long-term offtake discussions.

About 5E Advanced Materials, Inc.

5E Advanced Materials, Inc. (Nasdaq:FEAM)(ASX:5EA) is focused on becoming a vertically integrated global leader and supplier of refined borates and advanced boron materials, complemented by calcium-based co-products, and potentially other by-products such as lithium carbonate. The Company’s mission is to become a supplier of these critical materials to industries addressing global decarbonization, energy independence, food, national security, and the defense sector. The Company believes factors such as government regulation and incentives focused on domestic manufacturing and supply chains and capital investments across industries will drive demand for end-use applications like solar and wind energy infrastructure, neodymium-ferro-boron magnets, defense applications, lithium-ion batteries, and other critical material applications. The business is based on the Company’s large domestic boron resource, which is located in Southern California and designated as Critical Infrastructure by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and with the U.S. Government’s 2025 Critical Minerals List following boron’s inclusion.
