Automotive Lighting Market Likely to Reach US$ 65 Bn by 2030; Restrictions on International Trade to Hurt Inventories During Covid-19 Pandemic, says Fact.MR

Automotive lighting manufacturers are seeking financial relief from governments including working capital and suspension on interest payments for loans taken in the industry.

ROCKVILLE, MD / ACCESSWIRE / August 11, 2020 / The automotive lighting market is estimated to reach a valuation of US$ 65 Bn by the end of the forecast period between the years 2020 and 2030. The coronavirus pandemic however, is expected to hurt short-term market prospects as the industry largely relies on Chinese suppliers for materials and components. Companies in the automotive lighting industry have been forced to stop or slow down production, and to reevaluate revenue streams.

"Automotive OEMs are displaying higher interest in LED lights, driven by demand for lower power consumption and durability. Improvements in high-quality LED and OLED technology, and steady decline of costs will favor market development in the years ahead," says the Fact.MR report.

Lansing Companies Sells 107 Lots in Jurupa Valley

JURUPA VALLEY, CA / ACCESSWIRE / August 11, 2020 / On June 4, 2020, San Diego-based Lansing Companies sold its first phase of 107 lots in its premier Equestrian Friendly Master Planned Community known as Paradise Knolls located along Limonite Avenue and Downey Streets within the Pedley Community of the City of Jurupa Valley. Richmond American Homes purchased this first phase and expects to soon start grading the site.

The property, formally known as the 107-acre Paradise Knolls Golf Course located on Limonite Avenue about 3 miles east of the 15 Freeway had been financially declining due to the competition from 15 newer golf courses within a 10-mile radius; and the effects of the golf industry's general decline in play over the last decade.

Close to six years ago, Lansing Companies acquired the property which included two-thirds of a mile of Santa Ana River frontage, and began an extensive process to create a project that was environmentally sensitive to the River, the existing mature trees and to create additional parks for public use on the property.

With a thoughtful approach to encompassing nature within this new community, Lansing Companies incorporated a considerable amount of input from its community outreach into the project plans along with results from environmental studies to ensure we developed a balanced Equestrian Friendly Master Planned Community of 650 residential units, a 2-acre commercial corner and several community parks and significant equestrian facilities and trails to honor the equestrian heritage of the City of Jurupa Valley. The plans also include an open space parkway along the Santa Ana River providing the area with a terrific spot for recreation.

Lansing Companies is working with the city staff of Jurupa Valley on designing and engineering the Second Phase of our exciting Paradise Knolls development. This upcoming phase is known as Planning Area 5 and is expected to create more than 240 lots for single-family homes and the development of the parks and all the remaining equestrian facilities.

"The city of Jurupa Valley has been great to work with and helped us create an asset that will generate increased tax revenue to the City along with amenities which will benefit the entire city."

Anti-Seize Compounds Market to be Hurt by Suspended Aerospace and Automotive Production During Covid-19 Crisis, Says Fact.MR

Anti-seize compound manufacturers are highly invested in heat resistant, food and military grade product offerings as major revenue generators, owing to sustained sales through the crisis period.

ROCKVILLE, MD / ACCESSWIRE / August 11, 2020 / The anti-seize compounds market is expected to grow at a moderate 4% CAGR between the period of forecast from 2020 to 2030.

Aerospace, automotive, and marine grade products will witness a slump as lockdown measures restrict activities in these industries. However, food grade compounds will continue to witness steady demand, partially alleviating losses.

"Construction and mining industry applications are expected to boost market developments following the end of the pandemic. Rising investments in these industries particularly in countries such as India, Indonesia, and China will remain key contributors to growth in the industry" says the FACT.MR report.

"During the second quarter we delivered solid financial performance with revenue almost doubling and bottom line improving close to 50% from the year ago period," said Netlist's Chief Executive Officer, C.K.

The positive outcome after a ten-year fight against Google in defense of this seminal patent puts other unauthorized users of our intellectual property on notice."

American Resources Corporation Acquires Two Additional Continuous Miners for Perry County Resources

Company preparing to restart metallurgical carbon mining and processing operations at restructured complex

Perry County Resources restructured to be one of the lowest cost and most innovative PCI (pulverized coal injection) and stoker operations in the United States

FISHERS, IN / ACCESSWIRE / August 11, 2020 / American Resources Corporation (NASDAQ:AREC) ("American Resources" or the "Company"), a supplier of raw materials to the rapidly growing global infrastructure marketplace, announced today that the Company has signed a contract to acquire two additional continuous miners for their Perry County Resources ("PCR") mining complex in Hazard, Kentucky.

The PCR complex was acquired in September 2019 and has undergone a major restructuring. In anticipation of restarting the PCR complex within the next thirty days, American Resources is expanding its fleet of continuous miners to fit its restructured and low-cost operating model. With the addition of the two continuous miners the Company will now have six continuous miners as it restarts and ramps production.

Mark Jensen, Chairman and CEO of American Resources Corporation commented, "We are truly excited to restart the Perry County complex and unveil it as one of the lowest cost, if not the lowest, PCI and stoker operations in the United States. We applaud our team for the tremendous achievements made over the last several months to reduce over $45 million of costs and implement our strategic plan moving forward. Since acquiring it out of bankruptcy, we have invested a significant amount of time and resources into the complex to return it back into an efficient and productive operation. Now with six continuous miners, up from the one continuous miner that was operational when we acquired PCR, we feel we are in a really good position to ramp up the complex very efficiently and look forward to doing so in the near future."

Over the next twelve months, American Resources anticipates ramping up carbon production at PCR to have five continuous miners in operation with two "super" sections and one bridge section, allowing the mine to scale with maximum efficiency. The Company also anticipates adding additional continuous miners to the fleet at PCR to have a high degree of redundancy to minimize any unexpected equipment down-time. Additionally, the Company is anticipating through its forecasted production schedule to ramp the PCR complex to over 1.0 million tons of carbon per year to be shipped on the PCI, semi-soft metallurgical carbon and specialty stoker markets.

American Resources has been a consolidator and operator of quality metallurgical carbon assets in the Central Appalachian basin ("CAPP") to serve customers in the steelmaking, specialty alloy metals, and industrial marketplaces. Its next-generation model and philosophy is to restructure existing, legacy operations to better fit the modern-day marketplace by eliminating legacy costs and liabilities to significantly increase the overall efficiency and profitability of its complexes. Perry County Resources is one of the Company's five operating complexes within the CAPP.

Production at PCR has been idle during the COVID-19 outbreak to ensure a safe working environment, to protect the health of its employees and others, to mitigate the spread of the virus, and to better navigate the global economic disruption. With its restart, American Resources expects the complex to support approximately 140 long-term, sustainable jobs for the community.

About American Resources Corporation
American Resources Corporation is a supplier of high-quality raw materials to the rapidly growing global infrastructure market. The Company is focused on the extraction and processing of metallurgical carbon, an essential ingredient used in steelmaking. American Resources has a growing portfolio of operations located in the Central Appalachian basin of eastern Kentucky and southern West Virginia where premium quality metallurgical carbon deposits are concentrated.

American Resources has established a nimble, low-cost business model centered on growth, which provides a significant opportunity to scale its portfolio of assets to meet the growing global infrastructure market while also continuing to acquire operations and significantly reduce their legacy industry risks. Its streamlined and efficient operations are able to maximize margins while reducing costs.
