NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Why: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, continues to investigate potential securities claims on behalf of shareholders of F5, Inc. (NASDAQ: FFIV) resulting from allegations that F5 may have issued materially misleading business information to the investing public.

What is this about: On October 15, 2025, F5 filed a Current Report on Form 8-K, in which F5 had learned in early August that a “highly sophisticated nation-state threat actor had gained unauthorized access to certain [F5] systems.” In addition, F5 stated that “during the course of its investigation, [F5] determined that the threat actor maintained long-term, persistent access to certain F5 systems, including the BIG-IP product development environment and engineering knowledge management platform,” and that “through this access, certain files were exfiltrated, some of which contained certain portions of the [F5]’s BIG-IP source code and information about undisclosed vulnerabilities that it was working on in BIG-IP.”

On this news, F5’s stock price fell $35.40 per share, or 10.7%, to close at $295.35 per share on October 16, 2025.

Confirmed with a co-worker that came from a meeting just now that the CMO was cut today (Sashi M). Some people will say this is good, others will say this is bad. Simply calling it out as there was more layoffs today. Not sure if it was just him or if there was additional leaders but more people are gone.

BY U.S. EPA

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued three final Underground Injection Control (UIC) Class VI permits to ExxonMobil for a project in Jefferson County, Texas. Under the Safe Drinking Water Act, these permits allow ExxonMobil to convert three existing test wells permitted by the state to carbon dioxide (CO2) storage injection wells for long-term storage.

“Texas has successfully managed underground injection wells for decades while protecting drinking water, and I'm confident they'll continue this success with Class VI wells,” said EPA Regional Administrator Scott Mason. “These permits advance ExxonMobil's Rose carbon storage project, creating jobs and protecting health and the environment through advanced technology. EPA is committed to removing bureaucratic barriers to unleash American energy.”

“We appreciate all the work from the EPA, under the Trump administration, to issue these permits for our Rose carbon storage project. It marks an important step in strengthening America’s energy industry through safe, permanent CO₂ storage,” said Barry Engle, president of ExxonMobil Low Carbon Solutions. “We’ve worked diligently to meet or exceed the rigorous standards set. Carbon capture and storage projects will create growth, jobs and economic opportunity, and we’re pleased to play a leading role in advancing their deployment.”

Class VI injection wells store CO2 deep underground after it has been captured from an emissions source or the atmosphere. These Class VI permits allow ExxonMobil to inject an average of 1.1 to 1.67 million metric tons of CO2 per year into each well, with a maximum total of 5 million metric tons per year across all three injection wells. Over the 13-year injection period, ExxonMobil would be allowed to inject a maximum of 53 million metric tons of CO2.

EPA regulations require ExxonMobil to conduct comprehensive site analyses ensuring the wells protect the environment during construction and operation, including preventing drinking water contamination and human-induced seismic activity. EPA also mandates that all operational plans meet site-specific conditions, covering construction materials, mechanical integrity, and emergency response protocols.

EPA proposed to approve the permits in August of this year and took public comments and held a virtual hearing. The final permit documents, responses to public comments, and other finalized or updated documents are available on the docket.
