On January 10, 2025, Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. ("Mawson" or "the Company"), filed its answer ("the Filing"), attached herein as an Exhibit, to the involuntary petition against the Company (the "Petition") pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 303(a) filed on December 4, 2024 by W Capital Advisors Pty Ltd, Marshall Investments MIG Pty Ltd, and Rayra Pty Ltd, all of whom are Australian entities (the "Petitioners"). Mawson had previously announced in a filing on Form 8-K issued on December 4, 2024, that the Company's Board of Directors intended to vigorously defend the Company against the Petition filed by these Australian entities.
&nbsp;
As per the Company's most recent 10-Q filing on November 14, 2024, W Capital Advisors Pty Ltd as trustee for the W Capital Advisors Fund and Marshall Investments MIG Pty Ltd as trustee for the Marshall Investments MIG Trust had filed proceedings in Australia, and the Company believes that these entities were using such proceedings in an improper attempt to gain leverage in ongoing legal disputes between the parties. The Company believes that the filing of this Involuntary Petition is an extension of the ongoing disputes, including with James Manning, the Company's former Board Director and Officer, and a continuation of the pattern of bad faith actions, by James Manning and the Petitioners, with the improper intention of harassing and intimidating Mawson.
&nbsp;
The Company's counsel plans to propound discovery requests to the Petitioners. In addition, James Manning remains the subject of an investigation by the Company's Audit Committee, including related to his dealings with W Capital Advisors Pty Ltd as trustee for the W Capital Advisors Fund – among several other matters – including current litigation with an entity related to James Manning, Vertua Property Inc. ("Vertua"), regarding alleged self-dealing, breach of contract, and tortious interference with a business relationship.
&nbsp;
The Company had previously reported through an 8-K filing on March 29, 2024, that it may seek to exit certain or all of its entities and holdings in Australia. The Company currently operates facilities in the United States of America and does not have any operating sites or assets in Australia.
&nbsp;
The Company continues to also pursue its complaint filed in The Court of Common Pleas of Mercer County, Pennsylvania (file number 2024-2332) on October 17, 2024 against Vertua as landlord for the Company's Sharon, PA property for breach of the lease agreement and wrongful termination of the lease, as well as for tortious interference with a business relationship. The Company is seeking reinstatement of the lease, compensatory damages, disgorgement of revenue, and exemplary and punitive damages, as well as reimbursement for its costs and litigation expenses. Vertua is a company not only related to James Manning, but also affiliated with Darron Wolter of W Capital Advisors Pty Ltd as trustee for the W Capital Advisors Fund.
&nbsp;
Mawson expects to vigorously pursue sanctions, attorney fees, general and punitive damages against the Petitioners, as available to the full extent of the law

Accolade Q3 Earnings Assessment

Electric vehicle company Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FFIE#NASDAQ">FFIE</a>) was one of the many companies that presented or showed off new products, concepts and company growth initiatives at the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42775636/ces-2025-preview-nvidia-amd-in-spotlight-other-trends-and-stocks-to-watch"> 2025 CES conference.</a>
An electric vehicle media outlet is skeptical of the company's latest plan for growth.
What Happened: When it comes to Faraday Future, the company has focused on the premium <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/electric-vehicles">electric vehicles sector</a> with the FF 91 having a cost of more than $300,000.
The company now plans to grow with its new Faraday X sub-brand and have vehicles priced in the $20,000 to $50,000, executives told <a href="https://insideevs.com/news/746781/faraday-x-ceo-interview/">InsideEVs </a>at CES.
Faraday plans to have the FX 5 and FX 6 vehicles priced from $20,000 to $30,000 and $30,000 to $50,000 respectively and the Super One minivan with a current undetermined price as the next models for growth.
A Super One prototype was at CES and Faraday X CEO Max Ma highlighted the company's excitement for this luxury passenger van.
Ma called the vehicle the "Nokia and iPhone moment" for Faraday Future saying, "You have the right product and open people's hearts."
Ma said the Super One will serve the market between high-end minivans and super-luxury SUVs, adding that it will transform the market.
"Today, the celebrities are using Escalades. Big, but there's no real luxury, top luxury, or you know, space and comfort. There's no AI. And then if you want to drive yourself, it's very hard to drive," Ma told InsideEVs.
Focusing on growth through AI, Ma also referred to the Super One as a "luxury AI MPV."
The prototype shown to the media highlighted the fact that Faraday has partnered with a Chinese company to make the Super One.
"Essentially, the Super One will be a rebadged Chinese plug-in hybrid MPV, with FF's tech," InsideEVs said.
The writer said the vehicle looked simply like a Chinese MPV and had no AI features.

Why It's Important: Faraday Future has struggled since announcing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/21/01/19367501/faraday-future-going-public-via-spac-what-investors-should-know">a SPAC merger back </a>in 2021.
The merger announcement came with a value of $3.4 billion for the company. Fast forward to today and Faraday Future has a market capitalization of $94 million and an enterprise value of $203 million.
Shares are down 92% over the last year and down 43% year-to-date in 2025 already.
The appearance and prototype at CES could help restore brand awareness and trust in the company after several controversies and failures along the way. Top of Form
"We have been trained, with big hearts, with resilience, with hard (work). We also want to have this big opportunity to prove that we can do it again, right?" Ma told InsideEVs.
Ma noted the company is looking for a fresh start of sorts, which Faraday X could be the centerpiece of.
The CES presentation and media interview could cause some confusion with the company highlighting its focus on cheaper electric vehicles and showing off and naming a luxury multi-person vehicle as growth items.
FFIE Price Action: Faraday Future stock trades at $1.56 at market close Friday versus a 52-week trading range of $0.99 to $155.60.

Blackbaud Files For Mixed Shelf Offering; Size Not Disclosed

Wall Street wiped out its entire post-election rally this week as mounting interest-rate fears were stoked by a red-hot labor market, surging inflation expectations and escalating geopolitical tensions ahead of Donald Trump&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42916780/donald-trump-receives-unconditional-discharge-in-new-york-hush-money-case-will-enter-white-house-as-convicted-felon">return to the White House</a>. 
In a shortened trading week due to Thursday&#8217;s funeral for former President Jimmy Carter, market activity reached a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/42922299/wall-street-tumbles-on-blowout-payrolls-oil-rallies-to-76-us-dollar-hits-26-month-highs-whats-driving-markets-friday"> fever pitch on Friday.</a>
The U.S. economy boasted an impressive <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/42912480/us-economy-adds-256000-payrolls-in-december-as-tight-labor-market-tops-forecasts-dollar-treasury-yields-spike">256,000 nonfarm payrolls</a> in December — a figure that made the consensus economist forecast of 160,000 jobs pale in comparison. This marked the strongest employment growth since March. Additionally, the unemployment rate dropped to 4.1%, beating forecasts of 4.2%.
In simple terms, the U.S. labor market ended 2024 firing on all cylinders. While this robust performance bodes well for consumer spending, it poses a significant challenge for the Federal Reserve, which now faces mounting pressure to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/42913622/dollar-soars-to-27-month-highs-30-year-yields-hit-5-stocks-tumble-jobs-report-oil-spike-darken-feds-interest-rate-cut-hopes">keep inflation in check.</a>
Expectations for a new interest rate cut were further pushed down the road to September 2025 in reactions to new economic developments. For stocks, this represented a setback, as indices tumbled across the board.
Earlier in the week, President-elect Trump, in a one-hour speech at Mar-a-Lago, floated provocative ideas, including annexing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/events/25/01/42860583/trump-floats-canada-as-51st-us-state-says-hes-ready-to-use-economic-force-to-achieve-it">Canada as a 51st state</a>, imposing stringent tariffs on Mexico and demanding NATO members increase military spending to 5% of GDP.
On Friday, the Biden administration announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/sector-etfs/25/01/42919047/oil-nears-80-as-us-prepares-new-russia-sanctions">new sanctions targeting Russian oil </a>giants Gazprom Neft and Surgutneftegas, shadow fleet vessels and opaque traders. These measures triggered a sharp rise in oil prices, further unsettling markets.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Inflation Fears Surge</h3>
Consumer inflation expectations for the next five years reached 3.3% in January 2025, hitting their highest levels since June 2008, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/42917321/consumer-inflation-worries-highest-since-2008-u-of-m-survey-says-wall-street-tumbles-to-2-month-lows">a University of Michigan survey</a>. Rising inflation anxiety may reflect concerns over the incoming Trump administration&#8217;s planned tariff hikes.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Wildfires Impact Insurers</h3>
California wildfires destroyed over 10,000 structures, intensifying pressure on property insurers like Allstate Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALL#NYSE">ALL</a>) and Travelers Companies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRV#NYSE">TRV</a>). Economic losses could reach $57 billion, with insurance <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/42906089/california-wildfires-ignite-concerns-for-insurance-stocks-here-are-some-insurance-etfs-which-could-be-impacted">stocks under market focus.</a>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Rate Hike Panic</h3>
The blowout December jobs report forced Bank of America Securities to scrap expectations for further interest-rate cuts. It marks a notable U-turn from a top investment bank. Economist Aditya Bhave floated the risk of rising discussions towards interest rate cuts, should core inflation <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/01/42926956/bank-of-america-scraps-interest-rate-cut-calls-betting-markets-go-haywire-as-hiking-panic-mounts">surges above 3% again. </a>
