  • Epique Realty Triumphs Reaching Nationwide Presence, Announces Expansion to All 50 States at PowerCON 2025

    Epique Realty Triumphs Reaching Nationwide Presence, Announces Expansion to All 50 States at PowerCON 2025

    Keynote Speaker Simon T. Bailey Declares the Epique Agent-First Movement “Legendary,” Citing Company’s “Heart” as Key to Explosive Growth

    NASHVILLE, TN / ACCESS Newswire / June 27, 2025 / In the most significant announcement in its meteoric history, Epique Realty confirmed that it has achieved a full national footprint, with brokerage operations now officially available in all 50 U.S. states. And the packed audience was completely enthralled on the first day of its annual PowerCON conference held at the iconic Gaylord Opryland in Nashville, TN.

    The historic milestone, achieved in less than three years, marks the company’s transformation from a disruptive Texas startup into a national powerhouse, validating its agent-first model on a coast-to-coast scale.

    All three Epique Co-Founders, CEO Josh Miller, CFO Janice Delcid and COO Christopher Miller made a unified announcement:

    “Less than three years ago, Epique was an idea. Today, it is a national movement. Reaching all 50 states is not just a measure of growth; it is proof of our philosophy. It proves that when you build a brokerage that genuinely works for the agent with a culture of radical generosity at its core, there are no limits. This achievement belongs to every agent who believed in a better way.”

    The power of that culture was the central theme of the day’s electrifying keynote address from the incomparable Author Simon T. Bailey. He ignited the room with his message on mindset and momentum, but his most powerful observation was his simplest: “Epique has heart.”

    Bailey explained that the company’s name, the French spelling for “Epic,” also carries the meaning of “Legendary”-a status he believes Epique is achieving precisely because its culture is changing industry standards from the inside out.

    The 50-state announcement, together with transformative sessions and Bailey’s unforgettable insights, cemented Day 1 as a landmark moment for the company and its agents. Stay tuned-Day 2 is here and promises to deliver more incredible announcements, free benefits, and resources that fuel agent success. As Day 2 begins, the message is clear: the future doesn’t wait, and the Epique movement is just getting started.

  • Received an IRS Letter? Clear Start Tax Breaks Down What IRS Notices Really Mean

    Received an IRS Letter? Clear Start Tax Breaks Down What IRS Notices Really Mean

    Clear Start Tax Helps Americans Navigate IRS Letters With Clarity and Confidence

    IRVINE, CA / ACCESS Newswire / June 27, 2025 / Every year, millions of Americans receive unexpected mail from the IRS, and panic sets in before they even open the envelope. Clear Start Tax says the confusion is understandable, as IRS notices are often filled with complex codes, unclear instructions, and vague references to tax years or balances owed. To help, the company is releasing a free guide that breaks down the most common IRS letters and what they actually mean.

    “Not every IRS letter is bad news,” said the Head of Client Solutions at Clear Start Tax. “But when you don’t know what the codes or deadlines mean, you could miss a chance to fix something simple – or fail to respond to something urgent.”

    The Most Common IRS Notices – And What They Really Mean

    Each year, the IRS sends out millions of notices, many of which fall into a few predictable categories. Clear Start Tax helps taxpayers recognize the letter type, understand its intent, and know how to respond. Highlights include:

    • CP14 – A balance due notice that’s often the first sign of a missed payment

    • CP504 – An urgent warning that a levy may be issued if no payment is made

    • CP2000 – A proposed change based on unreported income (like 1099s or W-2 mismatches)

    • LT11 – A final notice of intent to levy – with appeal rights attached

    • LTR4883C / 5071C – Identity verification requests before the IRS will process a return

    Clear Start Tax outlines what each notice typically means and when action may be needed to stay in good standing with the IRS.

    Why Ignoring IRS Mail Can Be Costly

    Failure to open or respond to IRS notices can escalate routine issues into aggressive enforcement. Many letters are auto-generated and follow a tight compliance timeline. Clear Start Tax warns that avoiding action can result in:

    • Accruing interest and penalties

    • Seizure of bank accounts or wages

    • Loss of refund opportunities

    • Automatic liens or levies

    “Sometimes people ignore IRS notices because they feel overwhelmed or unsure of what to do next,” said the Head of Client Solutions at Clear Start Tax. “But inaction is exactly what turns a fixable issue into a serious financial problem.”

    Many IRS notices are tied to unpaid balances or missing filings, both of which could qualify for relief under the IRS Fresh Start Program. By answering a few simple questions, taxpayers can find out if they’re eligible and take the first step toward resolving their tax debt.

    How Clear Start Tax Helps Taxpayers Respond the Right Way

    Responding correctly starts with understanding what the IRS is asking – and how to meet the deadline. Clear Start Tax helps clients interpret notices, verify account activity, and take the appropriate steps toward resolution. Their support includes:

    • Reading and interpreting IRS letter codes

    • Verifying balances and deadlines

    • Communicating with the IRS on the client’s behalf

    • Filing missing returns or documentation

    • Applying for relief options like the Fresh Start Program

    Each case begins with a full IRS transcript review to ensure no notices or compliance gaps are overlooked.

    About Clear Start Tax

    Clear Start Tax is a full-service tax liability resolution firm that serves taxpayers throughout the United States. The company specializes in assisting individuals and businesses with a wide range of IRS and state tax issues, including back taxes, wage garnishment relief, IRS appeals, and offers in compromise. Clear Start Tax helps taxpayers apply for the IRS Fresh Start Program, providing expert guidance in tax resolution.

  • Leading Independent Proxy Advisory ISS Supports Compelling Case for Change to AstroNova Board of Directors and Recommends Vote on the GOLD Askeladden Card

    Leading Independent Proxy Advisory ISS Supports Compelling Case for Change to AstroNova Board of Directors and Recommends Vote on the GOLD Askeladden Card

    ISS finds “change at the Board level is warranted to improve independence and oversight” 

    ISS observes “pattern […] in which outside forces regularly affect results” and “questions about the management’s credibility and ability to execute”

    ISS on Board’s recent claim that MTEX was a minor setback: “it is difficult to reconcile this sentiment with reality”

    ISS states “it was evident that [Samir Patel] has built a thorough understanding of the business”

    Askeladden encourages shareholders to vote for all five of our nominees on the GOLD proxy card

    FORT WORTH, TX / ACCESS Newswire / June 27, 2025 / Dear AstroNova shareholders:

    We are pleased to announce that leading independent proxy advisory firm Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (“ISS”) has concluded that there is a compelling case for change at AstroNova. Contrary to AstroNova’s repeated and misleading ad-hominem attacks, ISS highlighted Askeladden’s “thorough understanding of the business.” In its report, ISS made the following observations*:

    On AstroNova’s shareholder value destruction:

    “[Total shareholder return] is disappointing in both an absolute and a relative sense over all measurement periods. Importantly, TSR declined by over 50 percent over the 12 months through the unaffected date […] The extent of the value destruction demonstrates just how damaging the [MTEX] transaction has been to ALOT.”

    On AstroNova’s persistent execution issues:

    “a pattern has emerged in which outside forces regularly affect results. The company promises to fix these quickly, but generally fails to do so. […] The value-destructive acquisition, combined with the execution issues, as well as two announced restructuring programs announced less than two years apart, raise questions about the management’s credibility and ability to execute.”

    On the lack of Board independence and refreshment:

    “Four out of the six directors have been on the board between seven and 14 years, and have overseen ongoing execution issues since the pandemic, two restructurings, and the MTEX acquisition […] there are clear concerns with independence and the board’s ability to effectively oversee management […] the board appears to have been hesitant to proactively self-refresh, and has at least three directors with prior professional ties to each other or the CEO.”

    On the MTEX acquisition (emphasis ours):

    “The board positions the acquisition as a minor setback, and has argued in its publicly released materials that acquisitions do not always go as planned. It is difficult to reconcile this sentiment with reality, as a $13.4 million impairment charge within the first year of a cash transaction valued at $18.6 million, alongside the discontinuation of 70 percent of the acquired company’s products, amounts to the type of failure that shareholders do not expect a company to encounter in the ordinary course of M&A. This was a value-destructive acquisition that put the company in a riskier financial position as its indebtedness more than doubled […] With that said, cracks had started to emerge even before the deal.”

    On Askeladden nominees Jeff Sands and Samir Patel, for whom ISS recommends voting FOR:

    “Samir Patel is the company’s largest shareholder. During engagement with ISS, it was evident that he has built a thorough understanding of the business over several years of investment. He would provide a shareholder’s perspective and independence.”

    “The most important challenge for the company will be turning around its PI segment, which was set back by the failed acquisition of MTEX. Among the dissident nominees, Jeff Sands appears best suited to enhance oversight of the restructuring given his background as a turnaround professional and other experience with multiple small companies. Importantly, like Patel, he also offers much-needed independence.”

    On incumbent directors Richard Warzala and Mitchell Quain, for whom ISS recommends voting WITHHOLD:

    “Quain and Warzala are the incumbent directors most responsible for the concerns underpinning the case for change. Quain is the longest tenured director, and he serves on all key committees. Similarly, Warzala has been the lead independent director since 2020, and he has prior ties to the CEO, which further undermines his independence.”

    Conclusion

    As validated by ISS’s analysis and recommendation, Askeladden has outlined a clear case for meaningful change at AstroNova. We encourage fellow shareholders and interested parties to visit askeladdencapital.com/astronova for additional information including Askeladden’s published analysis, presentation, and definitive proxy materials.

    We urge shareholders to vote to elect directors who truly care about rapidly maximizing shareholder value. If you need assistance in voting the GOLD proxy card, please contact InvestorCom at (877) 972-0090. If you would like to speak to me or any of our candidates, please don’t hesitate to contact me directly.

    Sincerely,

    Samir Patel
    samir@askeladdencapital.com
    (682) 553-8302

    This filing, and future filings, will also be made available to shareholders after dissemination on EDGAR via our website: https://www.askeladdencapital.com/astronova/ These documents will also be available at no cost at www.sec.gov.

    *Permission to use quotations from the ISS report was neither sought nor obtained.

    Additional Information

    Samir Patel, Askeladden Capital Management LLC, Jeff Sands, Shawn Kravetz, Ryan Oviatt and Boyd Roberts (collectively the “Participants”) filed a definitive proxy statement and accompanying proxy card with the SEC on May 20, 2025, as amended on May 21, 2025, to be used in soliciting proxies in connection with the 2025 annual meeting of shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of AstroNova, Inc.

    The announcement-that all agents now have free access to a premium UrbanSitter subscription and 24/7 Roadside Assistance-was met with a wave of applause, confirming the immense value of benefits that support agents both in and out of the office.
