YUEDA DIGITAL: Names Robert Csercse to Board, Committees
--------------------------------------------------------
Yueda Digital Holding disclosed in a regulatory filing that Mr. Hao
Huang resigned as an independent director of the Board of
Directors, the chair of the Compliance Committee, a member of the
Audit Committee, and a member of the Compensation Committee of the
Board effective January 15, 2026. Mr. Hao Huang's resignation was
not the result of any dispute or disagreement with the Company on
any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies or
practices.

Following Mr. Hao Huang's resignation, the Board, including a
majority of the independent directors thereof, approved the
appointment of Mr. Robert Luigi Csercse as an independent director
of the Board, the chair of the Compliance Committee, a member of
the Audit Committee, and a member of the Compensation Committee of
the Board, to fill the vacancies created by Mr. Hao Huang's
resignation.

The Board has reviewed the independence of Mr. Robert Luigi Csercse
and determined that he satisfies the "independence" requirements of
Rule 5605 of the Listing Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market and Rule
10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Mr. Robert Luigi Csercse has significant experience in data
analytics, real estate technology, and asset management. From 2018
to 2024, he served as the co-founder and Chief Operating Officer of
Houzen UK Ltd., a data analytics and transactions SaaS platform for
residential real estate assets.

During his tenure at Houzen, Mr. Csercse built business operations
from the ground up, managed stakeholder relationships with major
clients such as Invesco and JLL, and led process automation
initiatives. Prior to that, he served as a Senior Portfolio Manager
managing single and multifamily assets with over £300 million in
assets under management.

                      About Yueda Digital Holding

Yueda Digital Holding focuses on identifying and evaluating
potential partnerships across financial technology and blockchain
ecosystems and developing our bitcoin and ether treasury framework.
The company was formerly known as AirNet Technology Inc. and
changed its name to Yueda Digital Holding in September 2025. Yueda
Digital Holding was founded in 2005 and is based in Beijing, the
People's Republic of China.

Singapore-based Assentsure PAC, the Company's auditor since 2025,
issued a "going concern" qualification in its report dated May 2,
2025, attached to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2024, citing that the Company has a history
of operating losses and negative operating cash flows and has
negative working capital of approximately US$52.6 million as of
December 31, 2024. These conditions raise substantial doubt about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Historically,
the Company has relied principally on both operational sources of
cash and non-operational sources of equity and debt financing to
fund its operations and business development. The Company's ability
to continue as a going concern depends on management's ability to
successfully execute its business plan which includes increasing
the utilization rate of existing staffs and potential financing
from public market or private placement. However, there is no
assurance that the measures can be achieved as planned.

As of Dec. 31, 2024, the Company had $72.17 million in total
assets, $93.26 million in total liabilities, and a total deficit of
$21.09 million.

OSAKA STEEL: To Shutter Indonesia Joint Venture With Krakatau
-------------------------------------------------------------
Nikkei Asia reports that Osaka Steel will cease operations at
Indonesian subsidiary Krakatau Osaka Steel due to a sharp decline
in demand caused by the Indonesian government significantly cutting
infrastructure spending, the Japanese company announced Jan. 23.

The Nikkei relates that the decision was made after attempts to
create steady profits failed and the company was unable to sell the
business.

According to the Nikkei, the timing of the withdrawal and other
details will be decided through discussions with its joint venture
partner, state-owned Krakatau Steel.

Production is scheduled to end on April 30, followed by shipments
and sales on June 30. The company said the loss to be recorded as a
result of the withdrawal is yet to be determined, the Nikkei
relays.

In the year ended December 2024, Krakatau Osaka Steel posted sales
of JPY25.3 billion ($161 million) and a net loss of JPY1.3 billion,
the Nikkei discloses.

Osaka Steel and Krakatau Steel established the joint venture in
2012. While it became profitable in 2021, it has continued to incur
net losses since 2022, the Nikkei notes.

Osaka Steel Co., Ltd. engages in the production and sale of steel
sections, bars, steel billets and processed steel products for the
construction, civil engineering, shipbuilding, steel towers, and
industrial machinery manufacturing applications in Japan. It offers
equal and unequal angles, channels, I-beams, round, and deformed
bars, mechanical joints for reinforcing bars, rails, elevator guide
rails, colored angles and channels, deformed and round joints, flat
and square bars, billets, and other semifinished steel products.


TOKYO ELECTRIC: To Sell Assets Worth US$1.3B in Restructuring Plan
------------------------------------------------------------------
Nikkei Asia reports that Tokyo Electric Power Co. Holdings has
decided on a new restructuring plan to sell assets worth JPY200
billion (US$1.3 billion), including shares of Japanese construction
company Kandenko and real estate, Nikkei has learned.

According to an outline of the restructuring plan put together by
TEPCO and its largest shareholder, Nuclear Damage Compensation and
Decommissioning Facilitation Corporation (NDF), the company will
off-load the JPY200 billion in assets over a three-year period, the
Nikkei relates. In addition to shares of Kandenko, in which TEPCO's
operating subsidiary holds a 46% stake, real estate unrelated to
the company's core business is also a candidate for sale.

Proceeds from the asset sales will be used to cover the costs of
responding to the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster and for
investments in renewable energy.

The plan is expected to receive government approval and details
will be announced as early as Jan. 26, the Nikkei relays.

According to the Nikkei, the restructuring comes at a critical time
for TEPCO, which is saddled with debt to the Japanese government
over its responsibility for the Fukushima incident. Cash reserves
are at the lowest level since the disaster, with the company
repeatedly refinancing short-term loans from banks.

The total cost of dealing with the incident, including
decommissioning the plant and compensating victims, comes to JPY23
trillion, with TEPCO alone needing to cover JPY17 trillion, the
Nikkei discloses.

According to the Nikkei, TEPCO estimates that it will need to
invest JPY11 trillion over the next 10 years into nuclear power
plant safety measures, renewable energy and power transmission for
data centers.

The Nikkei says the company is also expected to postpone
approximately JPY300 billion in investments and cut costs over the
next decade.

The restructuring plan forecasts an ordinary profit of over JPY300
billion by the early 2030s. Ordinary profit for the fiscal year
ended March 2025 was JPY254.4 billion, the Nikkei relays. The plan
assumes that the No. 6 reactor of Kashiwazaki-Kariwa nuclear power
plant in Niigata prefecture will be restarted in fiscal 2025 that
ends in March, and the No. 7 reactor in fiscal 2029.

The No. 6 reactor, which had to be shut down Jan. 22, a day after
the unit went online for the first time in more than a decade, must
update its anti-terrorism security facility in 2029. But since that
deadline is likely to be missed, the reactor will be forced to be
shut down in September that year.

If the anti-terrorism security update proceeds smoothly, the plan
is to have a two nuclear reactors generating power by the early
2030s.

Having the two reactors will allow TEPCO to meet the robust demand
for electricity from data centers, the Nikkei state.

Rather than stick to traditional in-house methods for power
transmission and substation equipment, the company plans to
collaborate with data center operators on the development of new
equipment.

TEPCO is also considering restructuring its decommissioning company
and other related organizations as it undertakes the massive
cleanup at the Fukushima plant, adds the Nikkei.

[] JAPAN: Restaurant Bankruptcies Hit Record High in 2025
---------------------------------------------------------
JAPAN Forward reports that in 2025, 900 restaurants went bankrupt,
up six from the previous year and the highest total on record. This
marked the third consecutive year of rising bankruptcies, according
to figures released on January 13 by private research firm Teikoku
Databank, JAPAN Forward relays. The firm said that rising food and
energy costs, along with higher wages driven by labor shortages,
have squeezed cash flow at many restaurants.

By category, pubs and beer halls, including izakaya, recorded the
most bankruptcies, with 204 cases, JAPAN Forward discloses.
Although this was eight fewer than in 2024, the total has remained
above 200 for three straight years since 2023, highlighting the
sector's continued strain.

JAPAN Forward relates that the second-largest category was Chinese
and other Asian restaurants, including neighborhood Chinese
eateries, ramen shops, yakiniku, and curry restaurants, with 179
bankruptcies. This was a sharp increase of 21 from 2024, setting a
new record. They were followed by Japanese restaurants (97), bars
and cabarets (89), and Western-style restaurants (87).

According to JAPAN Forward, Teikoku Databank said that bankruptcies
were especially common among businesses affected by fewer group
diners, growing consumer frugality, and rising costs for
ingredients and labor.

In contrast, a separate survey released on January 10 focusing
solely on ramen shops found that bankruptcies fell to 59 in 2025,
down from 79 the previous year, JAPAN Forward reports. The firm
said that, while the restaurant industry overall remains under
pressure, ramen shops appear to be entering a turning point after a
period of intense shake-outs.

According to Teikoku Databank, many ramen businesses have
strengthened their operations by expanding soupless noodle
offerings, which reduce soup-related costs, and by using central
kitchens, allowing shops to prepare meals from semi-finished
products, JAPAN Forward relays. These changes make it easier to
remain profitable even with fewer customers.

Of the 59 bankrupt ramen shops, 42.3% had capital of less than JPY1
million (about USD6,300) - a much lower share than in 2019, when
nearly half fell into this category. This suggests that the wave of
small-shop closures is beginning to ease, JAPAN Forward notes.

SPRUCE GOOSE: Wellington Cafe to Shut Doors After 12 Years
----------------------------------------------------------
Radio New Zealand reports that Wellington cafe Spruce Goose is
closing its doors after 12 years and a new hospitality venue will
be opening in its place next month.

RNZ relates that the cafe, which is located near and owned by
Wellington Airport, said in a post on social media it wasn't the
way they hoped their chapter would end.

"Unfortunately, we weren't able to secure a new lease, which means
it's the end of the road for us in this space."

According to RNZ, Richard Dalby, Wellington Airport's Commercial
General Manager said Wellington Airport was planning a major
redevelopment of the Lyall Bay waterfront precinct from the Leonie
Gill pathway to the airport.

"This will include a surfers hub, play areas, viewing platforms,
new plantings and improved accessibility," he said.

Mr. Dalby said as part of this an "exciting new hospitality venue"
would be opening in the current Spruce Goose location in February.

"We want to salute the Spruce Goose team for 12 great years and
wish them all the best."

Most people visiting Spruce Goose Jan. 26 that RNZ spoke to were
disappointed to hear the cafe was closing.

Hana and Gloria were surprised by the news, RNZ relays.

"I grew up in Lyall Bay, Kilbirnie, and I used to come here a lot,"
Hana told RNZ. "It's quite sad to know that it's closing."

Abbas owns the BFT gym nearby. He said it was sad news. "This was
our local," he said. "Every Sunday after our Hyrox Sunday sessions,
half my members come here for a coffee and post-workout treat.

"Hopefully they'll move somewhere else. It's a good bunch of
people," he said.

Yvonne, who was heading to the cafe for lunch said the cafe was a
good spot for plane spotters and it was a shame it was closing.
"It's a place that you can bring people to that's a wee bit
different."

RNZ adds that Berry and Kelly said although the cafe would be
missed, it wouldn't affect them much as there were other places
they could go.

Berry said if the landlord needed the premises back, "it was a
valid call."

The cafe's last day of trading will be February 8, RNZ says.
