$CETX News: Cemtrex Announces Beta Release of Pioneering AI Gun Detection Feature
Disruptive Artificial Intelligence (AI) Gun Detection Feature to Launch in the Second Calendar Quarter of 2024, Marking a Significant Milestone Achievement for Detecting Armed Persons in Surveillance Footage
Hauppauge, NY, March 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- - Cemtrex Inc. (NASDAQ: CETX, CETXP), an advanced security technology and industrial services company, today announced that its subsidiary, Vicon, is expected to commence the beta release of its innovative Artificial Intelligence (AI) gun detection feature in the second calendar quarter of 2024, marking a significant milestone in public safety and security technology. This groundbreaking feature is designed to function on edge devices, offering a low-cost, high-efficiency solution for detecting armed persons in surveillance footage and enhancing the capabilities of video management systems to initiate specific responses upon detection.
The introduction of this AI feature, with full commercialization planned for the second half of 2024, is part of Vicon’s commitment to developing cutting-edge solutions that meet the dynamic needs of our customers. This commercialization strategy allows for gathering real-world insights and refining the technology based on feedback from live environments, ensuring the delivery of a superior product experience. Current solutions on the market are generally server-based which are extremely cost prohibitive and difficult to deploy, whereas Vicon’s approach for an edge-based solution, offers a more effective alternative.
Vicon, in collaboration with its technology partners, is developing this feature to provide real-time alerts and facilitate rapid response, thereby playing a crucial role in enhancing security measures and potentially preventing violent incidents before they occur. The value of integrating gun detection technology into video surveillance systems offers significant advancements in the ability of organizations to protect their premises and the people within them, providing peace of mind in increasingly uncertain times.
"Our goal is not only to innovate but to make a meaningful contribution to public safety," said Saagar Govil, CEO of Cemtrex. "The early adoption and feedback through our beta release are vital in shaping a solution that truly meets societal needs. By making advanced gun detection technology accessible and affordable, we aim to equip organizations with the tools they need to enhance their security protocols and respond more effectively to potential threats."
Gun violence remains a pressing issue in the United States, with provisional data for 2022 from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention highlighting the urgent need for innovative solutions:
Over 48,000 firearm-related deaths, including nearly 20,000 homicides, were recorded in the U.S.
An average, 132 Americans died from a firearm-related injury each day, with hundreds more shot and injured.
Guns remained the leading cause of death for children and teens, climbing 87% in the last decade.
Recent years have seen a stark increase in school shootings, with 2021, 2022 and 2023 all setting records since at least 2008. There were at least 82 incidents in 2023, but 2022 was one of the deadliest years, with 46 fatalities, according to CNN.
Vicon's AI gun detection technology aims to contribute significantly to efforts to reduce gun violence and its devastating impact on communities across the nation. The Company sees the market opportunity for this feature to be vast, ranging from schools, hospitals, government buildings, retail, to religious institutions.

$CETX News: Cemtrex Issues Shareholder Letter and Provides Corporate Update
Completed Restructuring in 2023 Now Positions AIS and Vicon Segments for Continued Revenue Growth and Expanded Operating Profitability
Brooklyn, NY, Feb. 28, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- - Cemtrex Inc. (NASDAQ: CETX, CETXP), an advanced security technology and industrial services company, today issued a letter to shareholders from Chairman and CEO Saagar Govil.
To the Shareholders of Cemtrex, Inc.,
I wanted to provide you with a detailed update on Cemtrex’s activities over the last several months. If you have been following our progress closely then you will know that we have made many changes to our organization with the hope that we will generate attractive returns for all of you as we go forward. I also wanted to take this opportunity to talk a little bit more in depth about our Company in a way that might provide additional insight into why management has made some of the decisions we have, and how management views the current opportunities in our portfolio.
Over the last five years we have made a number of different investments. Some have proven to be quite fruitful while others, unfortunately, have not led to great results. We cannot change the missteps we have taken, but we have certainly learned from them and learned how to avoid them in the future. While we remain bullish in the emerging opportunities that Cemtrex invested in over the last five years, like Virtual Reality and SmartDesk, it became readily apparent that we could not effectively drive the best outcomes with these long-term investments due to the enormous cash requirements and operating losses that would be required to see these through. Private companies have certain luxuries that public companies do not have when it comes to building startups, particularly in rising interest rate environments. As a result, we made the difficult but ultimately correct decision to exit these businesses.
Looking ahead, we can confidently say that the path we are on today is clearer than ever, with the highest assurance of success that we have had since the Company’s inception. But what does success mean? For us, a company over the long term should be able to generate a higher return with its cash than would be possible by investing it in the S&P 500 index. Everything starts with this fundamental premise. Sadly, today there are many public companies that do not meet this test, including ours in recent years. Over the last ten years, despite making several smart decisions, we made some unforced errors which resulted in relinquishing any positive returns in our common stock that could have been realized. However, despite these setbacks we remain well poised for a positive turnaround on this front. Based on the numerous changes over the last twenty four months and restructuring of our business that we undertook in November of 2022, I am confident that we are on the right track to start consistently driving above average returns. Let’s dive into why that is the case:
With the restructuring completed Cemtrex owns two great businesses: Vicon Industries, Inc. (“Vicon”) which comprises our Security segment, and Advanced Industrial Services, Inc. (“AIS”) which comprises our Industrial segment.
When we make an investment, we primarily look at two measures of capital return efficiency. The first is with respect to our investment. What is the cash-on-cash return of the investment over its life compared to the S&P 500? Additionally, we look at, on an annual basis, what is the Annual Net Income against the starting FY Shareholder’s Equity in the business?
We acquired AIS during our FY 2016 for a total purchase price of $7,500,000. Out of that purchase price, Cemtrex contributed $1,000,000 of equity, which was paid in the form of Cemtrex stock. The balance of the purchase price was financed through debt. Looking at the Net Income of the business, excluding the unusual benefits of COVID-19 relief programs like PPP that took place in 2021, the cumulative return on that investment over the eight years we have owned AIS has been $8,628,084 or 863%. When that cumulative return is averaged over the 8 years ownership it represents a 108% annual return on Cemtrex’s invested capital.
Furthermore, when we look at our second measure for this business, the annual return on equity, we see additional encouraging results. The annual return on beginning shareholder’s equity for AIS, on average, over the last 8 years, again excluding PPP benefits in 2021, has been approximately 35%. This important measure encourages management to continue investing its equity into this business to drive outsized returns. Additional factors that make AIS an attractive business are: 1) approximately 70% of our sales come from repeat customers we do business with; 2) attractive 30%+ gross margins that we see further opportunity to drive higher as we grow the business; 3) the macro-economic factors in the U.S. that are driving growth, including increased infrastructure spending and reshoring of manufacturing.
For FY 2023, AIS produced strong results, with sales reaching $25 million compared to $21.2 million for the prior year, an increase of 18%. Additionally, operating income increased from $.6 million in FY 2022 to $3.1 million in FY 2023, representing a 400% increase in operating earnings for the period.
Regarding our Security segment, let’s focus on our investment in Vicon of which we own 95%. Cemtrex has invested approximately $22.95 million of its own cash into Vicon, as debt and equity, to date over the five years of ownership, including the cost of acquiring the shares of the business as well as additional investments made into the company to grow it. At the time our initial investment was made the market cap of the company was approximately $5.5 million. Today, with the company doing $34.7 million in annual revenue and three sequential quarters of operating profit in FY 2023, we can conservatively estimate the enterprise value of Vicon to be substantially higher than when we made our investment and our return on equity, when annualized over the 5 years of ownership, far exceeds the competing return on the S&P 500.
In FY 2023, Vicon produced significantly better results, with sales growing from $23.8 million in FY 2022 to $34.7 million in FY 2023, an increase of 46%. Gross Profit improved from $8.5 million in FY 2022 to $15.6 million in FY 2023, an increase of 85%. The operating loss at Vicon was reduced from $6.1 million in FY 2022 to $0.6 million in FY 2023, a reduction of 92%, and the Company has had an operating profit three of the last four quarters.
The exciting part is that we believe relative to our current investment, limited additional capital, if any, will be required on Cemtrex’s behalf to drive further growth at Vicon. Based on the continued opportunity for growth, we believe that Vicon has tremendous potential to increase its enterprise value over the next five years that would maintain or exceed the annual return on our capital. This will be accomplished primarily by driving further topline growth, increasing operating profits, and scaling Annual Recurring Revenue (“ARR”) products that we believe can drive multiple expansion.
In our segment reporting we now carve out our Corporate costs, essentially the costs to manage these portfolio companies and the costs of being a public company, as a separate segment so that it is easier for our shareholders to better ascertain the underlying performance of the businesses we own. The Corporate costs today reduce our operating income meaningfully, but as we scale the business these costs will continue to remain at low levels relative to our earnings.
As legendary investor Peter Lynch said, “Often, there is no correlation between the success of a company’s operations and the success of its stock over a few months or even a few years. In the long term, there is a 100% correlation between the success of a company and the success of its stock.” Our goal going forward is to leverage our capital in a way to drive excellent operating results and thus deliver exceptional returns on our investments over time. We remain confident that as we stay on this path the consistent results in the business will begin to be reflected in our stock.
All the above certainly doesn’t summarize all the accomplishments that have taken place within our Company this past year. We have added a number of talented employees, restructured some of our debt to give us greater flexibility for growth, completed an important acquisition at AIS, and launched several exciting products at Vicon that will set it on a path for long term success for years to come. We feel, based on the results above, that FY 2023 represents a key turning point for us, as we have a renewed focus, clarity, and resolve to deliver exceptional results going forward.
Sincerely,
Saagar Govil
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

$SMME News: SmartMetric says its Gen4 Self Powered Biometric Finger Scan Card Is Perfectly Designed to Meet the Needs of the 518 Million Credit Cards Issued in the United States
February 6, 2024
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- SmartMetric, Inc. (OTC: SMME) A fingerprint scan credit card is a type of biometric card that uses a built-in fingerprint scanner to verify the identity of the cardholder when they try to make a payment. This technology is designed to enhance the security and convenience of credit card transactions, especially for contactless payments as well as standard contact payments and ATM transactions.
Better protection of your data: Unlike PINs, fingerprint data is encrypted and is only stored in the card, bypassing the need for a central database connected to the internet, protecting a card user’s sensitive data from hackers1. Additionally, the technology safeguards against duplicated 2D and rubber fingerprints because it requires electrical capacitive sensing. In addition, the SmartMetric biometric credit/debit card has an inbuilt hardware based live fingerprint detection created by SmartMetric and only available on the SmartMetric biometric credit/debit card.
Even more convenience: Credit cards save consumers time and allow them to pay quickly. With a fingerprint scan credit card, you don’t need to remember or enter a PIN, which can speed up the checkout process and reduce the risk of forgetting or losing your PIN. At the moment the card issuing brands such as Visa and Mastercard are not proposing to eliminate the use of a PIN with a biometric card. Discussion in Europe by Banking regulators is actively talking about the doing away with the widely accepted “insecure” PIN when users use a fingerprint scan credit/debit card. Credit card networks already have the ability to turn off PIN usage which they do for some low-cost transactions such as buying a coffee. Logic would have it as biometric credit cards proliferate non-PIN usage will expand without restriction to fingerprint biometric scan cards.
Works with existing POS infrastructure: SmartMetric fingerprint scan credit cards are compatible with existing point-of-sale terminals that accept chip or contactless payments, so merchants don’t need to invest in new equipment or software to accept them. However, more recent players who are trying to test reader powered finger scan credit cards that rely on the power from the reader are trapped in having their cards not able to work at most Gas Stations, ATM’s and many restaurants that don’t have portable card readers that are brought to the table.
The stark functional deficits of non-self-powered fingerprint scan credit/debit cards compared to the SmartMetric internally powered ready to use at all times and all situations, fingerprint scan card is best explained in the following.
Non-Self Powered Fingerprint Scan Card
Only works when inserted into a card reader therefore limiting use of the card and not able to be used in all card user situations. These cards rely on the user touching the cards fingerprint sensor while the other end of the card with the contact chip is held in the reader. This allows the card to power the fingerprint scan only through the power from the card reader going into the card. So these cards are limited to readers that only partially insert the card into a reader. Otherwise, they have no power of their own to perform a fingerprint scan. Some of the places these none-powered cards will NOT work in are: ATM’s that swallow the card whole Restaurants that do not have a portable card reader but require the card to be taken from the table for transaction processing Gas station pumps that like ATM’s swallow the card whole Transit ticket dispensers that swallow the card whole Parking station ticket machines that swallow the card whole
Non-Self Powered finger scan credit or debit cards require the user to go to a bank branch to have their fingerprint scanned and then transferred onto the card via a secure fingerprint capture device. This is bothersome to the card user. It raises trust issues about having the bank involved in the capture of the user’s fingerprint. For large scale credit issuers that rely on mass mailing of new and replacement credit cards requiring their customers to have to come into a bank branch just will not work.
SmartMetric Self Powered Finger Scan Card
The SmartMetric self-powered finger scan card because it has its own internal rechargeable power, scans the cared user’s finger prior to the card being inserted into a credit card reader. Therefore, the card is able to be used at all existing and types of credit card readers without the stark limitations of the non-self-powered fingerprint scan cards.
The SmartMetric self-powered finger scan card does not require the card user to go into a bank branch to register their fingerprint on the card. Nor does it alternatively need a separate secure card reading device to be sent out to the card user for in home fingerprint download into the card. The SmartMetric finger scan card user simply touches the cards fingerprint sensor four (4) times an instantly their fingerprint is scanned and securely stored inside the card. No user friction. Instant fingerprint capture and store because the card is self-powered and acts immediately as a fingerprint scanner.
Mass credit card issuers who rely on mail distribution for the credit cards need not to change the way they do business. SmartMetric finger scan cards are easily shipped to homes through the mail and without fuss or user friction are easily set up for future card use by the user’s fingerprint.
The SmartMetric self-powered finger scan card works at ALL card readers such as: ATM’s Restaurants that take the card from the table to process (user touches the sensor which turns on the card for up to 8 minutes giving the table server enough time to have the card processed) Gas pumps Parking ticket vending machines Transit ticket vending machines
“Because of the limitations of the user and card issuer experience we believe that trials and testing of the non-self-powered cards under way in Europe are doomed to failure. Much like inferior electric vehicles are failing in the market while Tesla continues to grow exponentially with its model Y becoming the biggest selling vehicle globally. Failed poorly thought-out products fail because no one wants them while it doesn’t distract from new innovations success trajectory when the new innovators get the product to align with customers expectations,” said SmartMetric’s President and CEO, Chaya Hendrick.
It has taken years of research and development to perfect the internal power system within the SmartMetric finger scan card. Millions of dollars in research and development have been invested to create the only card of its kind in the world that will work at all card readers. A card that is simple to download your fingerprint into the card at home without the fear and inconvenience of going somewhere else to have your fingerprint scanned and stored into the card.
The SmartMetric finger scan card is light years ahead and brings the reality of full biometric security technology to the ubiquitous credit and debit card world.
Credit cards still dominate the way consumer make payments. Non credit card payments such as phones account for less than 5% of payment transactions while the majority of transactions are done using either a credit or debit card.
According to a report published by Forbes Adviser on March 9, 2023 “Over the past year, nearly half the population (47.5%) opened at least one new account, bringing the total number of accounts to over 518 million by the end of 2022.” 1
The mass market version of the SmartMetric Gen4 biometric credit card is now under manufacture following the successful testing of the cards new and advanced internal operating system on the new card hardware platform.
Currently the card is under manufacture which involves the electronic assembly and separately the cards lamination turning it into a credit card is underway in Asia. The cards internal software including its operating system has been tested by the SmartMetric group of engineers in Tel Aviv, Israel.
“While we have experienced unbelievable challenges and delays, we are very excited about being able to very soon show our finished mass production biometric finger scan card to the world,” said Chaya Hendrick.
We are protected by issued patents in the United States with pending patents in Asia and Europe and other parts of the World.
By far our biggest patent protection revolves around issued design patents granted by the USPTO (United States Patent and Trademark Office) that grant protection against any product design such as a smart card or credit chip card that has in any one of multiple variations a fingerprint sensor on it. “None of the other biometric card manufacturers who in our opinion are wasting their time with an inferior none self-powered card, will be able to sell such cards in the United States because of the issued patents,” said Chaya Hendrick.
“Design Patents are easily enforced and the owner or licensee of such patents can have offending products seized at a port of entry or at a place of business in the USA without much effort,” said Chaya Hendrick.
Utility patents can take years of legal fighting however design patents are based on does the product look like what is patented in the design patent and if so then it is infringing.
“We are confident that if a Bank in the USA wants to issue biometric finger scan cards in the USA that have a chip and a fingerprint sensor on them, then they will need to deal with SmartMetric,” said Chaya Hendrick.

$AMIH News: American International Holdings, Corp. Receives Funding Commitment of Up To $20 Million as an Initial Step in a Comprehensive Plan To Recapitalize The Company and Pursue Uplisting to a Major Exchange
Electra, Texas, July 17, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- American International Holdings, Corp. (OTCQB: AMIH) announced today that it has entered into an Equity Financing Agreement with Pacific Lion LLC (Pacific Lion) pursuant to which Pacific Lion agreed to purchase up to $20,000,000 of AMIH common stock. Pacific Lion also agreed to fund AMIH up to $400,000 under a Convertible Promissory Note to bridge AMIH through to the effectiveness of the registration of the shares to be sold under the Equity Financing Agreement.
Pursuant to the Equity Financing Agreement, Pacific Lion has agreed to purchase up to $20,000,000 of AMIH common stock following the receipt of put notices from AMIH and subject to certain conditions. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement entered into in connection with the Equity Financing Agreement, AMIH agreed to file a registration statement to register the common stock issuable under the Equity Financing Agreement. Following the effectiveness of the registration statement, if AMIH elects to cause Pacific Lion to purchase shares, the shares will be purchased at a 15% discount to the lowest closing trade price of AMIH’s common stock in the prior 10 trading days. The Equity Financing Agreement with Pacific Lion replaces the Equity Financing Agreement previously entered into with GHS Investments LLC, which has been terminated.
Pursuant to the Convertible Promissory Note issued to Pacific Lion by AMIH, Pacific Lion has the right to fund up to $400,000. The note bears interest at 6% and is due on May 23, 2024. Following an uplisting to a senior stock exchange, the note will automatically convert at 80% of the uplisting offering price. In addition to the note, the Company also issued a Warrant to Purchase Shares of Common Stock to Pacific Lion. The warrant is exercisable for 500,000 shares for a period of five years at $0.10 per share. In the event that an uplisting to a senior stock exchange does not occur within nine months of the issuance date, the warrant will automatically be canceled. The note is designed to provide a mechanism for Pacific Lion to make regular fundings to cover AMIH’s working capital needs during the pendency of the registration statement. Pacific Lion funded the first tranche of $100,000 upon the issuance of the note.
The proceeds will be used for general business operations. More information regarding the transaction will be provided in a Form 8-K to be filed with the SEC.
These investments are part of a broader restructuring plan to recapitalize the company, consolidate and retire existing debt and reduce dilution. This restructuring is designed to drive shareholder value and strengthen the balance sheet of the company.
“AMIH is executing on its core energy production operations, and we are ready to drive forward to scaling our revenues through expanded oil and gas production and property acquisitions as well as implementing the companies state of the art energy technologies.,” said Michael McLaren, CEO of AMIH. “The capitalization of the company is critical, along with a comprehensive restructuring of debt and share classes, as well as reducing dilution in an effort to drive value for shareholders and prepare the company for uplisting to a major exchange.”
In addition to the investment made by Pacific Lion in AMIH, the company will also be working with Pacific Lion, a firm that specializes in delivering strategic direct investments and hands-on advisory services to help with the growth of early-stage companies. The firm focuses on strategies that help capitalize public companies via retail and institutional investors, along with crowdfunding, equity lines and M+A consulting, with the goal of direct up listing to a major exchange over a 6–18-month targeted time frame.
“We believe that AMIH has developed an innovative approach to legacy oil & gas production combined with a keen focus on responsible energy production and social governance (ESG),” said Jacob Fernane, CEO of Pacific Lion. “We believe our access to strategic funding, share structure cleanup, technology and operations augmentation, and more, will allow AMIH to scale to the levels needed for a major exchange uplist and to rejuvenate its powerful energy-based business plan.”
Another funding strategy the company intends to employ is to file an offering under Regulation A+. Regulation A+ allows companies to raise money under two different tiers. Fully reporting SEC reporting companies such as AMIH are able to raise up to $75,000,000 on a Tier 2 offering in any 12-month period from the general public. The company hopes to attract a new shareholder base and would like to help fund the company directly.
The company will continue in its efforts to secure additional funding and reduce debt in preparation for its attempts to uplist to a major exchange in the future.

About Cycle Energy Corp.
Cycle Energy Corp. is an energy company based in the state of Texas and currently operates three vertically integrated businesses.
Cycle Oil and Gas. This wholly owned Texas subsidiary focuses on acquiring and optimizing underdeveloped oil and gas assets. It employs both internally developed and third party-licensed technologies to increase production, optimize performance and reduce costs. Cycle Oil and Gas currently produces approximately 25 barrels of oil per day from 16 leases on approximately 2,000 acers. The company currently has 125 wells on lease to reactivate. Since acquiring the leases in July 2022, Cycle Oil and Gas has increased production from an average of 7 barrels/day to 25 barrels per day. After reviewing well control data in the area, Cycle Oil and Gas believes that there is more recoverable oil available on these leases.

Overall, Cycle Energy Services’ equipment and experience combination seeks to reduce the amount of time and fuel burned to complete an abandonment or workover thus reducing costs.
Cycle Energy Technologies. This wholly owned Texas subsidiary provides both R&D and existing technology to enable increased production in the field. Cycle Energy’s flagship intellectual property is its mobile Gas to Liquid system. This is used to convert natural gas and other gaseous hydrocarbons into longer-chain hydrocarbons, such as gasoline or diesel fuel.
Each of Cycle Energy’s three vertically integrated businesses operate in tandem to help Cycle Energy capture unique opportunities that often go untapped by the Company's competitors.

$CDSG EXTENDS LITHIUM RICH SOUTH ZONE OVER 3.3 MILES EASTWARD AND SAMPLES UP TO 16,400 PPM IN NEW AREA
Las Vegas, NV., July 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Titan Lithium Inc., (OTC Markets: CDSG) (the "Company" or "CDSG") is pleased to announce strong Lithium geochemical sampling results from additional surface sampling program at the company's Titan 1 lithium property in Tanzania.
As part of our continued 2023 exploration program at the Titan 1 lithium project, several additional soil geochemical sample lines were completed in various targeted areas to both follow up previous results and to attempt to define the outer boundaries of our huge lithium discovery.
Towards this effort, our technical team returned to the south portion of Titan 1 to prospect, survey and conduct new lines of soil sampling. This area, designated the 'South Block' contains a lithium anomaly both massive and high-grade, having an average grade of 4,318 ppm Li or 0.93% Li2O, which covers a total of 10,900 acres (44 square kms).
The new work targeted an area on the eastern side of the South Block where an isolated reconnaissance sample, MW67, located roughly 3.3 miles (5.3kms) out from the main survey returned strong lithium (9,000 ppm Li). Samples were collected via several in-fill lines between the MW67 and the South Block.
Results indicate generally very high grades of lithium in this new region, and with sample MW67, the positive lithium values averaging 6,314 ppm Li ( 1.36% Li2O). The highest value returned a strong 3.54% Li2O (16,400 ppm Li). Several nul values were returned, however, results are questionable due to fresh water drainage patterns.
Craig Alford, MSc, PGeo, CEO of the Company and a Qualified Person under NI 43-101, noted "We were very excited to finally link up the MW67 sample to the main tested area. Our field work continues to reveal very high-grade lithium values and this new survey will add substantially to acreage of the South Block. Titan 1 is proving to be the most exciting lithium target in the world."
Rigorous Quality control of the samples was maintained and all samples were prepared and analyzed at the independent and ISO 9001 certified African Minerals and Geosciences Centre (AMGC) in Dar es Salaam. Soil samples are all consistently removed from the B soil horizon, from a depth of 6 to 10 inches.
About the Company: China Dongsheng International Inc. (OTC Markets: CDSG), through its wholly owned subsidiary Titan Lithium Inc., is a lithium explorer and developer.
