It's on my list of things to do. I would like to know how much of that $2.3M Solano is requesting is cash/base vs bonus. Was it disclosed somewhere? Need to see the entire terms. His base is currently $370K and $500 in bonuses, split evenly between cash and stock. My feeling is that Solano made his request since he believes $RAVE "Pizza Inn is aiming for more significant growth this fiscal year." "Mr. Schwarz initiated a phone conversation with Mr. Solano the next day, August 27, 2026 where Mr. Schwarz indicated to Solano that his Requested Compensation Increase beginning Fiscal Year 2027 and increasing 2.5 times to $2.3 million annually for Fiscal Year 2029 could be discussed at the Board’s upcoming meeting, but that for Mr. Schwarz such a request was a “non-starter”. Four days later, the Solano Correspondence was delivered to the Company."

One AI data labeling contract could be worth multiples of the $500,586 of revenue Nubeva Technologies $NBVAF (TSXV: $NBVA) booked in FY2026. Its CEO said in a new interview that data labeling companies (firms that turn experts’ knowledge into training data for AI labs) have asked the company to help label malware, and that most of its engineering focus is now on training its own AI model to read malware binaries. Nubeva now has three ways to pay off, up from two: → Having AI write the decryptors for its key-capture software, Ransomware Reversal (NuRR), so Nubeva can grow again or attract a partner/buyer. → A partnership or sale following the approval of all four AI patents. → Selling binary analysis (labeling what malware programs do) to data labeling companies, which could also attract a partner/buyer. Moreover, a data labeling contract wouldn’t depend on NuRR’s sales or on AI writing its decryptors, so it could come before either of the other two routes. CEO Randy Chou gave no price, volume, or timeline for a contract. But if you were to extrapolate the $200-250/hour that Mercor, one of the largest data labeling companies, pays its security experts, one full-time contractor (~2,000 hours/year) would earn $400-500K/year, just about Nubeva’s FY2026 revenue of $500,586. That implies Nubeva could earn multiples of its revenue from a single data labeling contract if its engineers and model can do the work of several contractors. A contract worth three of Mercor’s full-time experts ($1.2-1.5M/year) would be 2.4-3.0x its FY2026 revenue.

$AGLT (Agility Robotics) has cleared SEC review for public listing through $CCXI If you want an estimate timeline: ~Oct 13 (today): SEC S-4 declared effective ~Nov 2nd (shareholder vote): for merger approval ~November: Merger closing and ticker goes live for trading. Company’s official statement was: “The business combination remains subject to approval by Churchill XI shareholders and other customary closing conditions, and is expected to close in November 2026.” So likely less than a month away for the first pure play US humanoid company to go live!
