Michael Howe – who currently serves as an Independent Board Member – to assume CEO role on June 10, 2025
Michael’s career spans nationally recognized brands such as MinuteClinic, Procter & Gamble, PepsiCo, CEO of Arby’s, and as an early-stage investor/board member in healthcare and software businesses
HUMACAO, PR AND NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / June 10, 2025 / Aspire Biopharma Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:ASBP) (“Aspire” or the “Company”), a developer of a multi-faceted patent-pending drug delivery technology, today announced that its Board of Directors has elected Michael C. Howe, as the Company’s new chief executive officer. The Board selected Michael Howe to be CEO based on his proven track record of hands-on success during his more than four decades of experience with leading brands and early-stage companies, and his recognized leadership qualities. Kraig Higginson, who has stepped down as CEO and Chairman of the Board, will remain with the Company and serve as Executive Chairman of the Board.
Michael Howe is a visionary C-level executive with a proven record of driving transformative success across diverse industries. With a deep understanding of market trends, consumer behavior, and innovative brand positioning, Howe has consistently demonstrated his ability to foresee and shape consumer trends, leading to the creation of groundbreaking operational strategies.
His career has been marked by his ability to build and strengthen nationally recognized brands with companies such as MinuteClinic, Procter & Gamble, PepsiCo and Arby’s. His strategic leadership has consistently delivered significant growth and financial success, from start-ups to multinational corporations. His healthcare leadership and expertise in creating innovative consumer focused brands was most effectively demonstrated in his leadership of MinuteClinic, a network of board-certified health providers offering high-quality, team-based care services. Howe joined MinuteClinic in June 2005 with 19 clinics in two markets as the brand struggled to define a clear national expansion strategy. Within 15 months, Howe added more than 100 clinics in 13 markets and facilitated the sale of the company to CVS in September 2006, which delivered a nearly sixfold return for investors. He stayed with CVS as CEO of MinuteClinic for 2 additional years leading the national expansion to more than 530 clinics.
Since 2022, Howe has served as a Co-founder and CEO of The Good Clinic (TGC), which offered a holistic care approach to primary healthcare services, integrating functional medicine, genetic testing, technology, alternative treatments, and nutrition. Howe is now leading the funding and expansion to relaunch the TGC concept under the newly formed First Choice Healthcare Solutions. Since 2021, he has also served as an independent director for P1 Dental Partners, an Indianapolis-based, PE-funded dental services organization.
“Michael is a seasoned strategist with a track record of driving sustainable growth through innovation, and we have every confidence in his ability to lead Aspire during this important time,” said Kraig Higginson, Executive Chairman of Aspire. “He brings meaningful expertise in scaling differentiated platforms and has a deep understanding of the health and wellness sector – making him uniquely suited to serve as Aspire’s next CEO. I have worked closely with Michael over the past six months as a fellow board member during which time his contributions and insights have confirmed the excellent qualities he brings to the role. Together with the entire Board, I look forward to working with him.”
On his appointment, Howe said, “I am honored to be named as CEO of Aspire. I am grateful to our Executive Chairman, Kraig Higginson for his commitment, leadership and passion, and to the members of our Board for their leadership, particularly in these recent months, and for the confidence they have placed in me to lead our business.”
Howe continued “Aspire has a powerful and differentiated drug delivery platform, is engaged in an important clinical trial which could support a submission to the FDA via the 505(b)(2) pathway, and has the opportunity to generate early revenue upon the launch of its novel pre-workout supplement, both of which are expected to occur in 2025. I am eager to build upon the work the entire Aspire team has been doing to position our business for the future and create value for our shareholders over the long-term.”
Higginson added, “It has been a privilege to lead Aspire. I am proud of what we have accomplished, and I want to express my thanks to the many team members who, through their hard work and commitment to the company, have made our success possible. From the going public process, to commencing the first FDA clinical trials of our high-dose aspirin, to preparing for the launch of our innovative pre-workout product, BUZZ BOMB™, now is the right time to transition the leadership of Aspire to Michael. I believe the Company and shareholders will benefit from his experience as a strategic thinker with a laser focus on capturing current market and operational opportunities.”
About Michael C. Howe
A successful growth-oriented CEO with 40+ years of consumer and healthcare experience. Howe has established a proven track record of leading and building successful consumer focused businesses across several different business sectors including consumer goods, fast food restaurants, SaaS products, and innovative healthcare companies. He began his career at Procter & Gamble with positions in sales and marketing. He then joined PepsiCo in their fast-food division with operational roles with the KFC brand. Five years later, he joined Arby’s as a senior operational executive, subsequently rising to the position of President and CEO, growing the brand’s revenue by 25% in just 3 years.
After a successful term as CEO of Arby’s, Howe joined MinuteClinic in June 2005 and within 15 months orchestrated the sale of the company to CVS in September 2006, where he remained for 2 additional years leading the national expansion.
After leaving CVS in 2008, he founded Howe & Associates, which focused on supporting start up and early- stage companies in their expansion processes, as an angel investor, board member, and / or executive, leading 11 companies to a successful financial exit.

New software integration is among the first multi-unit operators to roll out AI note integration directly into the Company’s medical software
VIRGINIA BEACH, VA / ACCESS Newswire / June 10, 2025 / Inspire Veterinary Partners, Inc. (Nasdaq:IVP) (“Inspire” or the “Company”), an owner and provider of pet health care services throughout the U.S., announces the integration of a new artificial intelligence (AI) platform in partnership with leading software provider Covetrus into its medical software. The new platform is designed to perform a variety of administrative tasks, including AI-based dictation tools, empowering the Company’s veterinarians and technicians with the ability to focus on their clients and patients rather than note taking and toggling between screens. As one of the first multi-unit operators – and the first publicly traded multi-unit operator – to implement the integration at scale, the services provided by the platform are expected to provide value to Inspire’s clinics in the form of reduced administrative workload.
“Inspire wants our veterinarians focusing on the things that matter: the clients and pets they serve,” shared Dr Alexandra Quarti, Vice President of Medical Operations. “Covetrus’ expansion of our practice management software to include AI-driven tools allows our vets to do just that by focusing on quality of care instead of note taking or proper inter-practice communication. With auto-generated notes and pre-appointment summaries, we are confident our clinics will be even better prepared to give top-of-the-line pet care for each and every appointment.”
Contrary to other veterinary consolidators, Inspire made the strategic investment to implement one practice management software (PiMS), Covetrus Pulse, across all of its clinics for the benefit of efficiency, KPI consistency, and business growth with all the clinics working from one trusted platform. Now, Inspire is implementing the brand new Covetrus AI platform across all of its hospitals. The platform provides AI-based dictation tools for efficient medical note taking which will allow veterinarians to focus on the clients and pets they serve.
“At Covetrus, we have been rolling out AI-powered tools within Covetrus Pulse and delivering significant benefits, including at least 6 hours per vet per week time savings, improved staff efficiency, and revenue growth for practices,” said Scot Gillespie, Covetrus Chief Product and Technology Officer and General Manager of Software Business. “The adoption of AI tools isn’t about replacing expertise; it’s about augmenting it and freeing up veterinary professionals and staff for more personalized attention, and to create a more efficient and less stressful workplace for veterinary staff – letting them focus on delivering exceptional, compassionate care to pets. Covetrus’ AI platform will be able to provide the following services and more:
Ambient Listening & Auto-Generated SOAP (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan) Notes – Covetrus AI-powered transcription captures real-time conversations during appointments and auto-generates SOAP notes, saving valuable time per visit and allowing veterinarians to focus on pet care instead of typing good notes.
Pre-Appointment Summaries – The AI platform generates concise patient summaries based on practice management system (PiMS) data, allowing veterinarians to prepare more efficiently before appointments without significant time to review previous charts.
Treatment Boards – The AI PiMS programs enhances care team collaboration by providing real-time updates on patient treatments, ensuring seamless communication across the practice.
Inspire expects these services to provide its clinics the ability to see more patients while providing consistent world-class medicine, reducing the administrative workload on its staff, and improving the quality of work life for its veterinarians.

New direct payment network founded by former fleet owners eliminates fraud while reducing costs and driving business to independent gas stations
CUPERTINO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / June 10, 2025 / Piston, a cardless payments platform that connects commercial fleets and gas stations, today announced it has raised $6.1 million in seed funding, led by Spark Capital with participation from Pear VC and BOND. The round follows a $1.4 million pre-seed raised through the PearX accelerator, bringing Piston’s total funding to $7.5 million. Piston will use the capital to scale go-to-market operations and expand its fast-growing network of independent gas stations and commercial fleet partners.
Founded by former fleet operators, Vikram Sekhon and Shivam Shah, Piston is redesigning fuel payments from the ground up. Rather than stacking another card on top of legacy systems, Piston built its own infrastructure, which eliminates card fraud and retail price markups, two of the biggest pain points for fleets. Drivers pay using a secure, app-generated QR code that ties each transaction to a specific vehicle, time, location, and fuel type. On the backend, gas stations connect directly to Piston’s platform, gaining access to new commercial demand and real-time insights without the need for costly hardware or third-party interference.
“Fuel was our second-largest expense after payroll, and the most chaotic to manage,” said Vikram Sekhon, co-founder and CEO of Piston. “We tried every solution on the market when we ran our own fleets, and none of them worked. So we decided to build one ourselves from scratch without the baggage of legacy card networks.”
The result is a new kind of payments network that serves both sides of the fuel marketplace. For fleets, Piston offers real-time fraud prevention, savings through direct station relationships, and zero card management overhead. For stations, especially the 90% that are franchise-owned, Piston offers a way to attract loyal commercial business-something they’ve historically been unable to do, even with brand affiliations.
The company is currently serving over 120 fleets, across 800 gas stations, and processing more than $20 million in annualized volume, growing 50% month-over-month. With the seed round, Piston is actively hiring across its go-to-market, product and engineering teams, with operations in Cupertino, CA, Lehi, UT, and Kolkata, India.
“Piston isn’t just replacing the fleet card, it’s redefining the economics of commercial fuel payments,” said Arpan Shah at Spark Capital. “From the very beginning, Vikram and Shivam were laser-focused on a problem they knew intimately. They have built the most innovative way for both last-mile fleet owners and gas stations to transact seamlessly and transparently with each other with access to data insights that were previously impossible for them to see with any other solution. We’re thrilled to partner with them on their journey to rethink fuel payments for thousands of small businesses in the transportation industry.”
“Vikram and Shivam have both operated fleets themselves and lived the pain of skyrocketing fuel expenses and rampant abuse on fleet cards,” said Shravan Reddy, Partner at Pear VC. “They identified a huge problem impacting an underserved market and we believe there is enormous opportunity. During their time in our pre-seed accelerator PearX, they consistently exceeded every growth target and we’re excited to continue supporting them in this next phase.”
Piston continues to expand its station partner network and is working with independent fuel retailers across the country to integrate directly with its platform, unlocking commercial demand and modernizing one of the most overlooked parts of the mobility economy.
“Fuel and credit cards were bleeding us dry with hidden fees, negligible rebates, and endless fraud disputes,” said Ash Kapoor, President at Saga Kapital Group Inc with a fleet of 200+ trucks across multiple states. “After moving to Piston, we’ve lowered our fuel spend by double digits and cut reconciliation from two days to two clicks. Our drivers fill up faster, our accountants sleep better, and the savings drop straight to the bottom line.”
ABOUT PISTON:
Piston is a cardless payments platform for fleets and gas stations, replacing outdated card-based systems with direct, secure, and intelligent transactions. Built by former fleet owners who experienced the pain firsthand, Piston eliminates fraud, unlocks savings, and builds loyalty between stations and commercial drivers. Headquartered in Cupertino, California, with operation hubs in Lehi, Utah and Kolkata, India, Piston is backed by Spark Capital, Pear VC, BOND, and other strategic investors.

AUSTIN, TX / ACCESS Newswire / June 10, 2025 / Volcon Inc. (NASDAQ:VLCN), (“Volcon” or the “Company”), the first all-electric, off-road powersports company, today announced that it filed an amendment to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect a 1-for-8 reverse stock split of its common stock. The reverse stock split will take effect at 11:59 pm (Eastern Time) on June 11, 2025, and the Company’s common stock will open for trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market on June 12, 2025 on a post-split basis, under the existing ticker symbol “VLCN” but with a new CUSIP number 92864V608.
As a result of the reverse stock split, every 8 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding prior to the opening of trading on June 12, 2025 will be consolidated into one issued and outstanding share, with no change in the nominal par value per share of $0.00001. No fractional shares will be issued if, as a result of the reverse stock split, a stockholder would become entitled to a fractional share because the number of shares of common stock they hold before the reverse stock split is not evenly divisible by the split ratio. Instead, the stockholder will be entitled to receive a cash payment in lieu of a fractional share.
As a result of the reverse stock split, the number of shares of common stock outstanding will be reduced from approximately 4.3 million shares to approximately 0.54 million shares, and the number of authorized shares of common stock will remain at 250 million shares.
About Volcon
Based in the Austin, Texas area, Volcon was founded as the first all-electric power sports company producing high-quality and sustainable electric vehicles for the outdoor community. Volcon electric vehicles are the future of off-roading, not only because of their environmental benefits but also because of their near-silent operation, which allows for a more immersive outdoor experience.
Volcon’s vehicle roadmap includes both motorcycles and UTVs. Its first product, the innovative Grunt, began shipping to customers in late 2021 and combines a fat-tired physique with high-torque electric power and a near-silent drive train. The Volcon Grunt EVO, an evolution of the original Grunt with a belt drive, an improved suspension, and seat, began shipping to customers in October 2023. The Brat is Volcon’s first foray into the wildly popular eBike market for both on-road and off-road riding and is currently being delivered to dealers across North America. In 2024, Volcon entered the rapidly expanding LUV and UTV market and shipped its first production MN1 unit in October 2024. The new MN1 and HF1 products empower the driver to explore the outdoors in a new and unique way that gas-powered units cannot. They offer the same thrilling performance of a standard LUV / UTV without the noise (or pollution), allowing the driver to explore the outdoors with all their senses.

TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / June 10, 2025 / Northern Superior Resources Inc. (“Northern Superior” or the “Company“) (TSXV:SUP)(OTCQX:NSUPF)(GR:D9M1) is pleased to announce additional results from its 20,000-metre expansion drilling campaign at the Philibert gold property, located just 9 km from IAMGOLD Corporation’s (“IAMGOLD“) Nelligan project and 60 km southwest of Chibougamau, Quebec (the “Philibert Project“: Northern Superior: 75%, SOQUEM: 25%).
Highlights Include (Grades uncut; lengths measured along hole; see Table 1):
PB-25-498: 4.82 g/t Au over 21.6 metres (583.0 m to 605.1 m), including 11.86 g/t Au over 7.0 metres (595.0 m to 602.0 m): located beneath and south of current resource and 200 metres along strike from new discovery in PB-25-484 with 2.48 g/t Au over 18.0 metres (620.0 m to 638.0 m), including 7.02 g/t Au over 4.9 metres (621.1 m to 626.0 m) (see press releases dated March 25, 2025);
PB-25-501: 2.09 g/t Au over 22.2 metres (447.8 m to 470.0 m), including 3.54 g/t Au over 10.0 metres (460.0 m to 470.0 m), located beneath and south of the current resource pit 175 metres up dip of PB-25-498; and
New Discovery Expanded Outside Current Resource Pit: These results, along with PB-25-484, now define a new high-grade zone over a 200-metre strike length and more than 150 metres of vertical extent.
“Discovering high-grade mineralization with strong continuity and scale is always meaningful-but finding it directly beneath an open-pit resource adds significant strategic value. It opens the door to a phased development approach, potentially improving project economics and strengthening the long-term outlook. These results continue to reinforce our view that Philibert has the potential to become a long-life asset with substantial upside,” said Simon Marcotte, President and Chief Executive Officer.
“These results reinforce the exceptional growth potential at Philibert and extend a new high-grade discovery that remains entirely outside the current open-pit resource envelope of 1.71 million ounces at 1.1 g/t Au (Inferred) and 279,000 ounces at 1.1 g/t Au (Indicated). With three holes now outlining a 200-metre strike and over 150 metres of vertical continuity, we are seeing clear potential to expand the mineralization and define a significant underground resource base. This area is quickly becoming a priority for future drilling, and our evolving geological and structural interpretation will be key in unlocking its full potential,” added Adree DeLazzer, Vice President of Exploration.

Drilling Results
Drillhole PB-25-498 intersected 4.82 g/t Au over 21.6 metres, including 11.86 g/t Au over 7.0 metres, from a downhole depth of 583 metres (~490 metres vertical). The mineralization is over 200 metres east of the previously announced hole PB-25-484 which may represent a new zone or a down-plunge extension of the fault gap foot wall (“FW“) zone. Historic drilling suggested deeper potential, with nearby intercepts located 190 metres up-dip and 150 metres along strike (see Table 1 and Figures 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, as well as Figure 6 for a core photo of PB-25-498). Some narrow intersections were returned for the hanging wall (“HW“) zone and 0.47 g/t Au over 6.5 metres starting at 437.5 metres from the fault gap FW zone.
Drillhole PB-25-501 intersected 2.09 g/t Au over 22.2 metres, including a higher-grade interval of 3.54 g/t Au over 10.0 metres, from a downhole depth of 478.0 metres. The intersection is located between holes PB-25-498 and 484 (100 metres along strike) and over 100 metres up dip. The mineralized zone occurs at 400 metres vertical depth, or approximately350 metres beneath the current resource pit shell (see Table 1 and Figures 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5). The HW zone was also intersected in this hole returning 0.64 g/t Au over 10.5 metres starting at 34.5 metres. Down dip of the fault gap FW zone the hole returned a narrow intersection of 1.30 g/t Au over 2.4 metres starting at 310.6 metres.
Drillholes PB-25-483, collared 120 metres south and up-dip of PB-25-501, returned 0.41 g/t Au over 23.7 metres starting at 223.0 metres from fault gap FW zone including 1.47 g/t Au over 3.3 metres and may have intersected the up-dip extension of the new discovery zone near the end of the hole, which the Company plans to extend (see Table 1 and Figures 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5). The HW zone was also intersected in this drill hole returning 0.51 g/t Au over 8.0 metres starting at 58.0 metres.
PB-25-482 drilled 280 metres south and 40 metres west of PB-25-498, intersected 0.76 g/t Au over 10.0 metres starting at 322.0 metres, approximately 50 metres below the resource pit. This interval may represent the up-dip projection of the new discovery zone. Additional extension drilling is planned. The drill hole also intersected a zone down dip of the fault gap FW zone returning 0.59 g/t Au over 1.6 metres starting at 245.7 metres (see Table 1 and Figures 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5).
Gold mineralization is hosted within the siliceous phase of the Philibert gabbro seam, characterized by pervasive silicification, quartz veining, albite, ankerite and sericite alteration, and 1-15% disseminated pyrite-pyrrhotite.

The Chibougamau Gold Camp
The Chibougamau Gold Camp is rapidly emerging as one of the world’s most sought-after gold destinations with several complementary gold resources reaching viable scale. In recent years, these critical assets were divided amongst five different companies. Today, largely due to Northern Superior’s acquisitions and corporate transactions,2 ownership has been streamlined, with only IAMGOLD and Northern Superior holding these assets. The proximity of these deposits to each other makes them ideally suited to feed a single mill, and their consolidation enhances their viability, thereby increasing their value.
Below is a table showing the resources of the camp having been formalized to date.

Early surface reconnaissance and drilling progress sharpen silver focus
HIGHLIGHTS
Current ~2,500m reverse circulation (RC) drilling program underway at Tolmer discovery; planned gold drilling reallocated to prioritise silver zone following early observations1
Additional target holes added north, east, south and west of high-grade ‘discovery line’2
ADELAIDE, AUSTRALIA / ACCESS Newswire / June 9, 2025 / Barton Gold Holdings Limited (ASX:BGD)(FRA:BGD3)(OTCQB:BGDFF) (Barton or Company) is pleased to provide an update for RC drilling underway at its recent ‘Tolmer’ high grade silver discovery, located at the Company’s South Australian Tarcoola Gold Project (Tarcoola).1 Drilling recently started at Tolmer with a priority focus on the western ‘silver zone’.1 Planned gold drilling will now be deferred in favour of extending drilling at the silver zone, ahead of anticipated follow-up programs starting as early as late July.
Commenting on the revised drilling program, Barton Managing Director Alexander Scanlon said:
“Based upon early observations we are refocusing all current Tolmer drilling on the western ‘silver zone’. We will expedite these assays to inform near-term follow-up programs, likely to include orientation diamond drilling.”
Growing ‘silver zone’ footprint
Barton identified Tolmer as a high-grade gold discovery in August 2024, and subsequently identified a new ‘silver zone’ ~500m west in a line of seven discovery holes with globally significant assays including:3

On 22 May Barton commenced a planned program of ~2,500m RC drilling which was designed to infill and extend both the western ‘silver zone’ and the eastern ‘gold zone’.4 Based upon further geological surface reconnaissance and early observations from drilling, it was decided to expand the ‘silver zone’ drilling program to gather a larger amount of data on this area with the remaining time available in this program.
Seven drill holes originally planned for the eastern ‘gold zone’ have been re-allocated to eight new drill holes in the western ‘silver zone’, expanding the planned drilling from three to five lines of RC holes. The total Tolmer drilling program has been expanded from a planned ~2,500m to a revised total of ~2,850m.
Drilling of the expanded ‘silver program’ is now anticipated to finish this week, following which assays will be expedited for laboratory analysis and planning of follow up drilling programs. These will likely include additional RC drilling (including in the gold zone) and diamond drilling for structural orientation.
