MONTRÉAL, QUEBEC / ACCESS Newswire / June 22, 2025 / Loop Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq:LOOP) (the 'Company,' 'Loop,' 'we,' 'us,' or 'our'), a clean technology company whose mission is to accelerate a circular economy for polyester by manufacturing 100% recycled polyethylene terephthalate ('PET') plastic and polyester fiber, today announced it has executed a $1.5 million engineering services agreement with Ester Loop Infinite Technologies Private Ltd. ('ELITe'), its India JV with Ester Industries Ltd. ('Ester').
This agreement reflects the continuing progression in the global deployment of Loop's PET depolymerization technology. This new engineering mandate will support ELITe through construction as it moves towards breaking ground on the Infinite Loop™ India facility, which is anticipated in the second half of calendar 2025.
The newly signed $1.5 million engineering services agreement builds on the initial engineering services agreement with ELITe which was fulfilled over Q4 of fiscal 2025 and Q1 of fiscal 2026. This underscores the role of engineering services in Loop's commercialization strategy as an important and growing source of revenue. We anticipate entering into additional engineering services agreements for India, Europe and other projects as we advance the development of future Infinite Loop™ facilities.
Loop continues to progress towards securing customer off-take agreements for the India JV with global brands in the textile and consumer packaged goods sectors.
Daniel Solomita, Founder and CEO of Loop, commented on the development of the India JV, saying: 'This new agreement reinforces the momentum for the India project. It helps set the foundation for construction start later this year and reinforces the model for the global manufacturing deployment of our technology.'
Further details regarding the Infinite Loop India project, including timelines and additional partnerships, will be announced as they become available.

MakeMyTrip Raises $3.1 Billion to Cut Stake of Chinese Backer Trip Group

he transaction, completed just days after the company's fundraising plans were announced, marks the largest capital raise by a new-age tech firm in Asia-Pacific since Paytm's $2.5 billion IPO in 2021 You're reading Entrepreneur India, an international franchise of Entrepreneur Media. MakeMyTrip has raised $3.1 billion through a combination of convertible notes and a primary share offering in a landmark deal aimed at reducing the stake held by its Chinese investor, Trip Group. The transaction, completed just days after the company's fundraising plans were announced, marks the largest capital raise by a new-age tech firm in Asia-Pacific since Paytm's $2.5 billion IPO in 2021. The Gurugram-based travel platform sold 18.4 million new ordinary shares at $90 each, generating $1.66 billion from its primary follow-on equity offering, as per FE. The share price was slightly below the June 17 closing rate of $91.49. The remaining $1.4 billion came from a five-year convertible senior notes issue, offered at a 0 per cent coupon with a 35 per cent conversion premium, according to a LinkedIn post by Kamal Yadav, managing director of investment banking at Morgan Stanley. "On June 17, 2025, after the close, MakeMyTrip priced $3.1 Bn concurrent registered primary equity follow-on and 144A convertible bond (Post-Shoe)," Yadav wrote. "Together [they] represent APAC's largest concurrent offering of equity follow-on and convertible notes since 2022." Morgan Stanley led the offering as the primary bookrunner and stabilization agent. The capital raised is not intended for business expansion or operational investment but will be used entirely to repurchase shares from Trip Group. This move is part of a broader shift in MakeMyTrip's ownership structure. MakeMyTrip's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) indicate that Trip Group's ownership in the company will now be reduced to between 16.9 per cent and 19.99 per cent, down from 45.95 per cent. Despite the significant dilution, Trip Group remains the largest minority shareholder. The repurchase agreement between MakeMyTrip and Trip Group was signed on June 16, one day before the company officially confirmed the fundraising plans. Initially, the company planned to issue 14 million shares but later increased the offering to 18.4 million. While the company has yet to issue an official announcement confirming the closure of the deal, it has filed the details with regulators.

This represents an increase of $0.55 from the share value as at May 31, 2024. For the 6–month period ended May 31, 2025, shareholder return was -0.2% and shareholder return over the last 12 months was 3.4%. Share value following the 6-month period ended November 30, 2024 was $16.73. "For the first time, Fondaction's net assets have surpassed the $4 billion mark. Our community of shareholders continues to grow. Nearly a quarter of a million people have chosen to entrust us with some of their savings to help prepare for their retirement and contribute to shaping the world in which they will enjoy it. Our conviction remains unchanged, even in a more challenging economic landscape: companies that generate positive environmental and social spinoffs are most likely to deliver better financial returns in the long term. It's these companies that we aim to support through our investments," says Geneviève Morin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Fondaction. Fondaction's annual compound shareholder returns are 3.4% over 1 year, 3.6% over 3 years, 5.8% over 5 years and 5.0% over 10 years, calculated based on the variation of the share value between its value at the start of each indicated period and the value of $16.70 as at May 31, 2025. These returns do not take into account tax credits that could be granted to taxpayers when subscribing to Fondaction shares, subject to their eligibility. For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, the gross returns are 4.5% for development capital investments and 7.9% for other investments. The total operating expense ratio was 2.32% for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, compared to 2.19% for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024. Net assets increased by 7.1% during the fiscal year to $4.04B as at May 31, 2025. On May 31, 2025, Fondaction had 225,451 shareholders, 1.8% more than on May 31, 2024. Share issuance totalled $389.2M, compared with $389.6M for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2024. Redemptions and purchases by agreement of shares totalled $254.5M, compared with $202.5M for the 2024 fiscal year. As a long-term investor, Fondaction has chosen to integrate sustainability as a key consideration in its investments. This approach explains why the carbon footprint of the "Other investments" portfolio (listed investments on the financial markets) is estimated at 20.1 tonnes CO2eq/$M invested, compared to 41.4 tonnes CO2eq/$M invested for the index selected by Fondaction, which is 52% lower than that of the securities of a benchmark portfolio as at April 30, 2025. These values are based on data available on April 30, 2025, and were calculated using the PCAF methodology, in tonnes of GHG emissions CO2 equivalent per million dollars of enterprise value. The benchmark portfolio is composed of 40% MSCI ACWI, 40% FTSE Canada Universe Bond and 20% TSX Composite. Each shareholder rate of return indicated represents the historical annual compound total rate of return including changes in share value and reinvestment of all dividends, as applicable, and does not take into account income taxes payable by any shareholder that would have reduced the return. The rate of return serves only to illustrate the effects of the historic growth rate and is not intended to reflect any future share values or the return on an investment in the shares. There are ongoing costs associated with owning shares in an investment fund. Fondaction shares are not guaranteed. They are an investment whose value and performance will fluctuate, and past performance should not be taken as an indication of future performance.
