FIGS NOTICE: ROSEN, NATIONAL INVESTOR COUNSEL, Encourages FIGS, Inc. Investors to Secure Counsel Before Important Deadline in Securities Class Action – FIGS

NEW YORK, Dec. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of the stock of FIGS, Inc. (NYSE: FIGS): (i) pursuant and/or traceable to the registration statement and related prospectus issued in connection with the Company’s 2021 initial public offering (the “IPO” or “Offering”); and/or (ii) between May 27, 2021 and May 12, 2022, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important January 3, 2023 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased FIGS securities you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the FIGS class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=9629 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than January 3, 2023. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, the registration statement supporting the IPO and defendants’ statements throughout the Class Period were false and/or misleading and/or failed to disclose that defendants: (1) inflated FIGS’ true ability to successfully secure repeat customers; (2) failed to disclose FIGS’ increasing dependence on air freight; and (3) inflated the expected net revenues, gross margin, and adjusted EBITDA margin for 2022. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the FIGS class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=9629 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

Hitachi Energy selected as technology partner to support the transmission of renewable power between Canada and the United States

Substantial modernization of a key transmission system in Canada will support the transfer of electricity between Montreal and New York.

Zurich, Switzerland, Dec. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Hitachi Energy, a global technology leader that is advancing a sustainable energy future for all, today announced that it has been selected by Hydro-Québec for its high-voltage direct current (HVDC) technology for the transmission of electricity, which will ensure the sustainability of the energy exchange between the Quebec network, in eastern Canada, and New York State in the northeastern United States.

Hydro-Québec, the largest hydroelectricity producer in Canada and one of the largest hydroelectricity producers in the world, is a public company that generates, transmits, and distributes reliable, clean and renewable electricity in Québec. Thanks to its surplus energy, it supplies the Canadian provinces and the northeastern United States.

The Châteauguay HVDC system will enable the transmission of up to 1,500 megawatts of electricity between the electrical networks of Quebec and the state of New York which will contribute to maintaining a low carbon footprint in the region. This new system will replace existing equipment which has been in operation since 1984*1, increasing the efficiency and controllability, plus raising the power conversion capacity of the Châteauguay HVDC system*2 by 50 percent.

*1 Châteauguay “back-to-back” HVDC converter station

*2 Subject to authorization by the Régie de l’énergie du Québec of the project to replace the converter units at Châteauguay substation.

“We are proud to be returning to the Chateauguay HVDC station, after helping to build it almost four decades ago,” said Niklas Persson, Managing Director of Hitachi Energy’s Grid Integration business. “This new system represents an important enhancement to the ability to transmit large-scale hydro power between Canada and the United States, which will support the shift away from fossil fuel.”

Hitachi Energy is supplying a “back-to-back” converter station, which converts AC power to DC then reconverts it to AC from DC enabling the interconnection of the 735 kilovolt Canadian and 765 kilovolt New York grids which are “out of phase” and cannot be connected directly via traditional AC systems.

Note to editors:

Hitachi Energy’s HVDC solution combines world-leading expertise in HVDC converter valves; the MACH™ digital control platform*3, which enables renewables integration and manages voltage and frequency disturbances in the grid; converter power transformers and high-voltage switchgear; as well as system studies, design and engineering, supply, installation supervision and commissioning.

*3 Modular Advanced Control for HVDC (MACH™)

HVDC Light® is a voltage source converter technology developed by Hitachi Energy. It is the preferred technology for many grid applications, including interconnecting countries, integrating renewables and “power-from-shore” connections to offshore production facilities. HVDC Light’s defining features include uniquely compact converter stations and exceptionally low electrical losses.

Hitachi Energy pioneered commercial HVDC technology almost 70 years ago and has delivered more than half of the world’s HVDC projects.

‫2022 بین الاقوامی رضاکارانہ خدمات کے تبادلے اور شیئرنگ کانفرنس نانجنگ میں منعقد ہوئی

نانجنگ، چین، 15 دسمبر 2022ء/ژنہوا-ایشیانیٹ/– 5 دسمبر کو 37 ویں “عالمی رضاکارانہ دن”، بین الاقوامی رضاکارانہ خدمات کا تبادلہ اور شیئرنگ کانفرنس چائنا پلم آرٹ سینٹر میں منعقد ہوئی، جس کی میزبانی چائنا والنٹیئر سروس فیڈریشن کے انٹرنیشنل والنٹیئر سروس ورکنگ کمیٹی سیکریٹریٹ اور نانجنگ میونسپل پیپلز گورنمنٹ کے تہذیبی دفتر نے کی۔ بین الاقوامی رضاکارانہ خدمات کے شعبے سے تعلق رکھنے والے رضاکار اور  ماہرین رضاکارانہ خدمات کی کہانیوں کو شیئر کرنے اور بین الاقوامی رضاکارانہ خدمت کے لئے ایک تبادلہ پلیٹ فارم بنانے کے لئے اپنی دانشمندی اور کوششوں میں حصہ ڈالنے کے لئے جمع ہوئے۔ اسی دوران نانجنگ نے دنیا کو “ٹوگیدر،ایکٹ ناؤ ( ایک ساتھ، ابھی عمل کریں)” کے ساتھ دعوت نامہ جاری کیا۔

کانفرنس میں رضاکار اور ماہرین

زبان اور عمر کی رکاوٹوں کو پار کرتے ہوئے نانجنگ کے رضاکاروں کے گروپ دنیا کے دوسرے حصوں میں چین کی طرف سے گرمجوشی اور محبت کا اظہار کرنے کے لئے گئے ہیں۔

” لگن بین الاقوامی رضاکارانہ خدمت کی سب سے اہم جذبوں میں سے ایک ہے، اور میں مادر وطن کی طرف سے باہر جا رہا ہوں۔ یہ ایک بہت ہی مثبت مثال ہے!” 2017 میں، افریقہ میں جیانگسو میڈیکل ٹیم کے ایک رکن، نانجنگ نمبر 1 اسپتال کے پبلک ہیلتھ ڈپارٹمنٹ کے ڈائریکٹر اور ایک نئے فادر وو ژینگکن نے تنزانیہ میں طبی امداد کے لئے خود کو قائل کیا، اور انتہائی مشکل کا حامل پہلا انجیوگرافی کا امتحان مکمل کیا۔ وو ژینگکن نے افریقہ میں امدادی ڈاکٹروں کی اگلی نسل کی مخلصانہ طور پر حوصلہ افزائی کی ، “چین سے تعلق رکھنے والے ڈاکٹر کے طرز عمل کے قابل بنیں ، اور چین افریقہ دوستی کا بیج بوئیں۔”

اساک امرال پریرا نے زیجن گراس کے رضاکار ہونے کی حوصلہ افزائی کے بارے میں بات کرتے ہوئے کہا کہ ‘1937 میں نانجنگ کے زوال کے بعد ، ڈاکٹر رابرٹ او ولسن شہر کے واحد سرجن کی حیثیت سے نانجنگ میں عزم کے ساتھ رہے اور بہت سے لوگوں کو بچایا۔ان کی بے خوف روح نے مجھے بھی چھو لیا۔” اب وہ میموریل ہال میں رضاکارانہ طور پر خدمات انجام دے رہے تھے، وہ اکثر سوشل میڈیا پر اپنے جذبات کا اظہار کرتے ہیں تاکہ زیادہ سے زیادہ لوگ تاریخ کو سمجھ سکیں اور مواصلات کے چینلز کو وسعت دے  سکیں۔

چائنا والنٹیئر سروس فیڈریشن کے ڈائریکٹر اور بیجنگ نارمل یونیورسٹی کے پروفیسر ژانگ کیانگ، بیجنگ والنٹیئر سروس ڈیولپمنٹ ریسرچ ایسوسی ایشن کے نائب صدر اور چین کی رینمن یونیورسٹی کے پروفیسر وی نا، ایمیٹی فاؤنڈیشن کے ایسوسی ایٹ جنرل سیکریٹری شی ہونگیو اور نانجنگ انٹرنیشنل کمیونٹی کے نمائندے ژی لی نے متعلقہ امور پر گہرائی سے تبادلہ خیال کیا۔

2022 International Volunteer Service Exchange and Sharing Conference held in Nanjing

NANJING, China, Dec. 15, 2022 /Xinhua-AsiaNet/–  On December 5, the 37th “International Volunteer Day”, International Volunteer Service Exchange and Sharing Conference was held at the China Plum Art Center, hosted by the International Volunteer Service Working Committee Secretariat of China Volunteer Service Federation and the Civilization Office of Nanjing Municipal People’s Government. Experts and volunteers from the field of international volunteer service gathered to share stories of voluntary service and contribute their wisdom and efforts to make an exchange platform for international voluntary service. At the same time, Nanjing issued an invitation to the world with “Together, Act Now”.

Volunteers and experts at the conference

Across the barriers of language and age, groups of Nanjing volunteers have gone to other parts of the world to convey the warmth and love from China.

“Dedication is one of the most important spirits of international volunteer service, and I am going out on behalf of the motherland. This is a very positive example!” In 2017, Wu Zhengcan, a member of the Jiangsu Medical Team to Africa, director of the Public Health Department of Nanjing No.1 Hospital and a new father, convinced himself to medical assistance in Tanzania, and completed the first angiographic examination of high difficulty. Wu Zhengcan sincerely encouraged the next generation of aid doctors to Africa, “Be worthy of the demeanor of a doctor from China, and plant the seeds of China-Africa friendship.”

“After the fall of Nanjing in 1937, Dr. Robert O. Wilson resolutely stayed in Nanjing as the only surgeon in the city and saved many people. His fearless spirit also touched me.” Isac Amaral Pereira talked about motivation of being a volunteer of Zijin Grass. Now he was serving as a volunteer docent at the Memorial Hall, he often shares his feelings on social media to let more people understand history and expand channels of communication.

Zhang Qiang, Director of the China Volunteer Service Federation and Professor of Beijing Normal University, Wei Na, Vice President of the Beijing Volunteer Service Development Research Association and Professor of Renmin University of China, She Hongyu, Associate General Secretary of the Amity Foundation, and Xie Lei, representative of the Nanjing International Community, conducted in-depth exchanges on related issues.
