PARSOL® Shield Approved by FDA, dsm-firmenich Setting a New Era for U.S. Sun Protection

KAISERAUGST, Switzerland and MAASTRICHT, Netherlands, Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — dsm-firmenich, innovators in nutrition, health, and beauty, proudly announces the FDA approval of PARSOL^® Shield (bemotrizinol, BEMT) for the U.S. market, making it the first new sunscreen active approved in the United States in more than 25 years under modernized GRASE (Generally Recognized as Safe and Effective) and MUsT (Maximal Usage Trial) evaluation guidelines.

The approval marks a major milestone for sunscreen innovation and public skin health in the United States, helping expand access to next-generation UV protection while opening new possibilities for formulators across the industry.

“PARSOL^® Shield approval represents an important step forward not only for dsm-firmenich, but for the future of sun protection in the U.S.,” said Parand Salmassinia, Beauty & Care President at dsm-firmenich. “This milestone reflects years of scientific leadership, regulatory collaboration, and commitment to bringing meaningful innovation to consumers.”

Clinical studies with PARSOL^® Shield (BEMT), involving nearly 500 participants representing the diversity of the U.S. population, demonstrated exceptional UV efficacy, excellent tolerability, and an excellent safety profile.

PARSOL^® Shield (BEMT) helps address real consumer needs, from reducing the risk of skin cancer to protecting against long-term UV-induced skin damage and premature photoaging. For formulators, it enables silky, lightweight sunscreen textures with strong photostability and formulation flexibility.

“This approval marks a landmark step for sun protection in the United States,” said Dr. Jochen Klock, Director Global Regulatory Affairs, Beauty & Care at dsm-firmenich. “It closes a longstanding innovation gap in the U.S. sunscreen market and reflects a modern scientific and regulatory standard that can help expand access to advanced UV protection for American consumers.”

Already approved across multiple global regions, PARSOL^® Shield (BEMT) also enables the development of global sunscreen formulations that simplify product strategy, reduce formulation complexity, and accelerate speed-to-market.

Its broad-spectrum protection is a key benefit, while its high efficiency at low concentrations contributes to a strong eco-profile and helps brands address evolving sustainability expectations and reporting requirements.

“Our customers have been waiting for more flexibility and innovation in the U.S. sunscreen market for years,” said Ashley Lebbe, Vice President, Global Sales Beauty & Care at dsm-firmenich. “PARSOL^® Shield opens new opportunities to create future-ready sunscreen solutions with global scalability and elevated consumer experience.”

The approval reinforces dsm-firmenich’s long-standing commitment to public skin health advocacy, including collaborations with regulators, NGOs, legislators, and organizations such as the Skin Cancer Foundation and Destination Healthy Skin initiative.

• The palm-sized, solar-powered solution is designed for scalable deployment in urban and rural communities, helping improve flood preparedness and climate resilience.

SINGAPORE, Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Infineon Technologies Asia Pacific Pte Ltd and Tack One Pte Ltd have been recognized by Singapore International Chamber of Commerce (SICC)  as the winner of the “Best Technological Collaboration” category and as a finalist in the “Most Sustainable Collaboration” category at the 2026 SICC Awards ceremony, for their partnership in developing FloodFinder™, a smart urban flood monitoring system.

The collaboration between the two companies has produced FloodFinder™, a patent-pending, self-sustaining system that enables rapid, real-time flood data collection without the need for external infrastructure. By combining Infineon’s advanced sensing and semiconductor technologies with Tack One’s expertise in ultra-low-power IoT system design, wireless communication, deployment and cloud integration, the solution delivers precise water-level detection through pressure and environmental sensing.

Designed for both urban and rural deployment, FloodFinder™ helps enhance flood preparedness and supports data-driven decision-making for government agencies and communities, even when the energy grid is down. The system is already protecting communities across Brunei, Taiwan, the Philippines, Malaysia and Thailand.

“We are proud to receive this recognition from SICC for our collaboration with Infineon,” said Justin Zhang, CEO of Tack One Pte Ltd. “FloodFinder™ was developed to address a critical gap in urban flood monitoring by combining advanced sensing with ultra-low-power IoT innovation. The result is a practical, scalable and sustainable solution that can be deployed where it is needed most.”

“Together with Tack One, we have developed a solution that brings together advanced sensing, efficient system design and ease of deployment to address an urgent environmental challenge using Infineon’s state-of-the-art XENSIV™ sensors,” said CS Chua, President and Managing Director of Infineon Technologies Asia Pacific. “This recognition from SICC highlights the strength of cross-industry collaboration in creating technologies that are not only innovative and cost-effective, but also scalable, sustainable and capable of delivering meaningful impact for communities.”

The partnership demonstrates how deep technical collaboration between a Singapore-based IoT hardware company and a global semiconductor leader can go beyond a traditional supplier-customer model. Together, Tack One and Infineon co-developed a solution that reduces reliance on external infrastructure, supports energy efficiency and enables scalable adoption in infrastructure-limited environments.

The SICC Awards recognition highlights the role of cross-industry innovation in building resilient, sustainable solutions that address pressing real-world challenges.

Bitmine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) Announces ETH Holdings Reach 5.90 Million Tokens, and Total Crypto and Total Cash Holdings of $15.6 Billion

Bitmine owns 4.9% of the total ETH coin supply of 120.7 million

Bitmine is 98% of the way to the ‘Alchemy of 5%’ in just 15 months

ETH is the best performing macro asset in 3Q26 so far, outperforming the S&P 500 by 5,430bp

Bitmine was added to the Russell 1000 Large-cap index on June 26, 2026

Bitmine’s Series A Preferred Stock is trading on the NYSE under the symbol BMNP

Bitmine has 5,067,309 staked ETH, representing $12.7 billion at $2,511 per ETH. MAVAN (Made in America VAlidator Network) is a premier Ethereum staking destination for BMNR and institutional investors

Bitmine owns $81 million of Eightco (NASDAQ: ORBS), now one of the only publicly listed equities in the world to provide investors indirect exposure to OpenAI

Bitmine Crypto + Total Cash Holdings & Marketable Securities + “Moonshots” total $15.6 billion, including 5.90 million ETH tokens, total cash & marketable securities of $541 million, and other crypto holdings

Bitmine remains supported by a premier group of institutional investors including ARK’s Cathie Wood, MOZAYYX, Founders Fund, Bill Miller III, Pantera, Kraken, DCG, Galaxy Digital and personal investor Thomas “Tom” Lee to support Bitmine’s goal of acquiring 5% of ETH

NORWALK, Conn., Aug. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — (NYSE: BMNR) Bitmine Immersion Technologies, Inc. (“Bitmine” or the “Company”) a Bitcoin and Ethereum Network company with a focus on the accumulation of crypto for long term investment, today announced Bitmine crypto + total cash & marketable securities + “moonshots” holdings totaling $15.6 billion.

As of August 30, 2026 at 3:00pm ET, the Company’s crypto holdings are comprised of 5,901,112 ETH at $2,511 per ETH (per Coinbase NASDAQ: COIN), 211 Bitcoin (BTC), $180 million stake in Beast Industries, $81 million stake in Eightco Holdings (NASDAQ: ORBS) (“moonshots”) and total cash & marketable securities of $541 million. Bitmine’s ETH holdings are 4.9% of the ETH supply (of 120.7 million ETH).

“As we enter the final month of 3Q26, ETH is the best performing macro asset, outperforming the S&P 500 by 5,430bp through last Friday. In fact, the top 3 performing assets since June 30th are ETH, BTC and SOL,” stated Thomas “Tom” Lee, Chairman of Bitmine. “We believe this sets the stage for institutions to add to their crypto holdings given the substantial outperformance of crypto versus other macro assets in 3Q so far.”

“We believe there are multiple positive catalysts as we head into the final months of 2026,” stated Lee. “These include the upcoming CLARITY Act vote scheduled in mid-Sept. Additionally, Korean investors have again started buying crypto and rotating away from AI stocks. The 4-year cycle is bottoming within the next few weeks in our view. And this sets the stage for what we expect to be sizable institutional participation in buying crypto in the final months of 2026, especially given the tailwinds of tokenization and Agentic-AI.”

“This ETH/BTC ratio has moved up during crypto bull cycles, driven by increasing use of Ethereum relative to bitcoin. These prior cycles were fueled by ICOs (2017-2018), NFTs (2020-2021), and stablecoins (2025). In this upcoming crypto cycle, we see the ETH/BTC ratio rising, driven by Wall Street tokenizing on the blockchain and by agentic-AI using blockchains,” continued Lee.

“Over the past week, we acquired 53,501 ETH. Bitmine has bought ETH for each of the past 65 weeks (every week since the inception of the ETH Treasury Strategy on June 30, 2025),” stated Lee.

On July 16, 2026, Bitmine released the latest Chairman’s Message (link here) for July 2026. The title of the Message is “ETH is the cure for the Uncanny Valley of Wealth.”

Earlier in 2026, Bitmine launched MAVAN (the Made in America VAlidator Network), the institutional-grade staking platform. While MAVAN was originally developed to support Bitmine’s own Ethereum treasury, MAVAN intends to expand to serve institutional investors, custodians, and ecosystem partners seeking best-in-class staking infrastructure. A portion of Bitmine’s ETH is already staked on the MAVAN platform.

As of August 30, 2026, Bitmine total staked ETH stands at 5,067,309 ($12.7 billion at $2,511 per ETH). “Bitmine has staked more ETH than other entities in the world. At scale (when Bitmine’s ETH is fully staked by MAVAN and its staking partners), the projected ETH staking reward is $390 million on an annualized basis (using 2.63% 7-day BMNR yield),” stated Lee.

“Annualized staking revenues are now projected at $335 million. And this 5.1 million ETH is 86% of the 5.90 million ETH held by Bitmine. Bitmine’s own staking operations generated a 7-day yield of 2.63% (annualized),” continued Lee.

Bitmine is one of the most widely traded stocks in the US. According to data from Fundstrat, the stock has traded average daily dollar volume of $1.36 billion (5-day average, as of August 29, 2026), ranking #62 in the US, behind Texas Instruments (rank #61) and ahead of UnitedHealth Group (rank #63) among 5,704 US-listed stocks (statista.com and Fundstrat research).

Bitmine’s crypto holdings reign as the #1 Ethereum treasury and #2 global treasury, behind Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR), which reportedly owns 840,447 BTC valued at approximately $66 billion. Bitmine remains the largest ETH treasury in the world. 

Bitmine management believes the GENIUS Act and the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) Project Crypto are as transformational to financial services in 2026 as the US action on August 15, 1971, which ended the Bretton Woods system and took the U.S. dollar off the gold standard 55 years ago. This 1971 event was the catalyst for the modernization of Wall Street, creating the iconic Wall Street titans and financial and payment rails of today. These proved to be better investments than gold.
