• Two incidents of domestic violence-related homicides in Maine help illustrate the importance of court-administered electronic monitoring programs for staving off violence between domestic partners after relationships break down
• With a track record of over 50 governments and 100,000 individuals served, SuperCom is innovating advanced electronic monitoring (“EM”) solutions to establish safeguards for potential victims
• SuperCom’s solution uses GPS technology to track the movements of domestic violence defendants, helping prevent further violence while also alerting law enforcement and potential victims if court-imposed boundaries are trespassed

Electronic monitoring technology developer SuperCom (NASDAQ: SPCB) provides products and services that help clients track people under their supervision. Its solutions are primarily used by police and court agencies to monitor the movements of individuals released pretrial, on probation after conviction, or on parole following incarceration.

Concerns about the incidence of domestic violence are increasingly leading to the use of EM monitoring for individuals accused of such crimes. A U.S. Department of Justice grant to research the use of EM in domestic violence cases in two locations, published in 2004, found that the use of radio frequency (“RF”) devices to track domestic violence defendants and protect potential victims was received by the victims as “useful enhancements to their safety” (https://ibn.fm/rWaLA).

Nevertheless, the application of EM in helping to protect potential domestic violence victims is far from universal.

A recent news report on two instances of domestic violence-related homicides in Maine noted that electronic monitoring is only available for pretrial inmates in nine of the state’s 16 counties and is only used sparingly in all but two of those counties. According to the report, counties that don’t use EM say that bad cell reception and tight staffing make GPS monitoring challenging and many sheriffs say it’s too expensive (https://ibn.fm/9NxOU).

The fathers of the two homicide victims pointed to electronic monitoring as a solution that could have saved their daughters’ lives and have taken on an advocacy role in seeking wider use of the technology.

SuperCom’s mission has been to make its PureSecurity EM platform available to agencies throughout the United States and Europe to enhance public safety efforts. The company was founded in 1988 and has served over 50 governments and 100,000 individuals.

The company’s leadership has announced several new contracts in the United States and Europe during the past year, many of them related to domestic violence monitoring.

“If you put someone on house arrest, you’re saving 90% of the costs, direct costs,” SuperCom President and CEO Ordan Trabelsi said during a recent appearance at micro-cap conference platform LD Micro’s 17th annual invitational event (https://ibn.fm/N1Luk). “We won a $32 million project in Romania. Not only is that a substantial new project because Romania’s never done this before — and we’re talking about 15,000 offenders that we would be monitoring at any given point over the course of six years — but it also gives us a strong reference for any other projects around the world of similar size.”

SuperCom’s GPS technology is packaged in a sleek, waterproof design that improves on the bulky ankle monitors worn in other programs. It has a battery life of up to one year, eliminating the need for continuous daily recharging with an electrical source, and it is unobtrusive, allowing defendants to continue working and functioning in society without being stigmatized by obvious devices.

The platform’s advanced technology tracks the defendants’ location in real-time, including their elevation (for in-building details), while also relating to the location of participating victims, notifying the victim and local authorities about any incidents of trespassing the boundaries established by the law enforcement agencies.

SuperCom provides 24/7 monitoring services to support agencies in various programs, including inmate monitoring within prisons, rehabilitation initiatives, and substance abuse monitoring for individuals prohibited from consuming alcohol.

• SuperCom is an electronic monitoring (“EM”) innovator helping to establish public safety and well-being through the use of advanced technology and monitoring services for government clients that make increasing use of supervised-release programs
• During a recent investor presentation at the annual LD Micro Invitational, SuperCom’s president and CEO, Ordan Trabelsi, outlined the company’s services and critical benefits to clientele, along with the company’s corresponding success with over 50 governments and 100,000 individuals served
• SuperCom anticipates that its $32 million contract in Romania, largely focused on monitoring domestic violence offenders, will help boost its credibility with other European governments running monitoring programs of a similar nature

Governments worldwide are turning to electronic monitoring (“EM”) solutions as a means of sustaining public safety and reducing repeat criminal behavior while also reducing the costs associated with imprisoning individuals — a trend outlined by EM innovator SuperCom (NASDAQ: SPCB) at a recent investor LD Micro presentation. SuperCom President and CEO Ordan Trabelsi explained the competitive edge of the company’s GPS-enabled PureSecurity platform, among a narrow field of rivals, during his appearance at LD Micro’s 17th annual invitational on Oct. 30 (https://ibn.fm/XPMXE). Trabelsi participated in one-on-one interviews with potential investors over the course of the event’s three days in Southern California.

SuperCom was founded in 1988 and has a track record of serving over 50 governments and 100,000 individuals. Its CAGR is above 60%, with 73% recurring revenue and a five-year EBITDA of $4.8 million as of last year.

“Our run-rate this year is even higher. We had a run-rate of at least $7.2 million EBITDA,” Trabelsi said.

SuperCom’s end-to-end solution provides a developed GPS technology for reliable offender tracking and 24/7 monitoring services to give criminal justice clients the confidence they need to operate supervised-release programs that allow select individuals to remain free from incarceration, potentially productive at their jobs and homes, at a fraction of incarceration costs.

“Over half a percent of the U.S. is in prison. That’s a very high rate; certainly not effective, not cost-effective, and not effective in terms of increasing public safety. … If you put someone on house arrest, you’re saving 90% of the costs, direct costs,” Trabelsi said. “And that’s just a sign that we need to improve things in the U.S., and also in other areas of the world, there’s room for improvement.”

SuperCom’s strategy is particularly focused on domestic violence cases in which any specifically identified victims or potential victims, as well as the authorities, can be notified by smartphone of the offender’s proximity before any physical danger arises.

“(It’s) one of the things that we in SuperCom are leaders in the world. We probably have more units in domestic violence than any other player out there,” Trabelsi said at the LD Micro event.

The technology is an improvement over bulky ankle monitors, offering instead a sleek, waterproof device that can be worn unobtrusively without drawing attention from other people. It has a battery life of up to one year, eliminating the need for continuous daily recharging with an electrical source.

SuperCom currently provides services in California’s large EM market and many other parts of Europe and the United States.

“We won a $32 million project in Romania,” Trabelsi said. “Not only is that a substantial project because Romania’s never done this before — and we’re talking about 15,000 offenders that we would be monitoring at any given point over the course of six years — but it also gives us a strong reference for any other projects around the world of similar size.”

The company’s services also include inmate monitoring in prisons, rehabilitation services and substance abuse monitoring — continuously evaluating a monitored subject’s alcohol intake through sweat-sensitive sensors, for example — and Trabelsi noted the company’s technology could work well for other services as well, although the company’s small size has led its officers to limit their focus to the most profitable opportunities at the moment.

“Our solutions create positive social impact and improve public safety worldwide,” Trabelsi said. “We see this over and over in various regions. We’re helping with saving the lives of potential victims. We’re aiding in eradicating domestic violence. We’re increasing public safety and well-being.”

Several companies are touting novel artificial intelligence technologies that promise to revolutionize the job-search process. This development has emerged at a time when the rate at which people are looking for new jobs has reached very high levels. For example, data reveals that at least 28% of U.S. residents were recently job-hunting.

Jeff, a well-followed TikTok user, emphasized that as hiring managers incorporated more AI functions in the hiring process, applicants also need to go the extra mile in order to stand a chance of being hired. In his videos, Jeff walks viewers through the AI-backed processes. He adds that he was able to get a job after using AI to formulate his applications, practice how to respond to interview questions and make meaningful connections with potential employers.

Chantal Cowie, another ardent believer in the utility of AI tools in the job-search process, recently shared how helpful AI can be during a job hunt. She reveals that AI saved her precious time because she had a hectic 60-hour week schedule. By automating aspects of the job search with AI, she was able to save plenty of time. Cowie says AI helped her to apply to a lot more jobs and advance further than had been previously possible in the rounds of interviews for each role. She secured a six-figure position that is fully remote as a result of leveraging AI tools.

As AI becomes increasingly popular in the job search process, many platforms have emerged to serve individuals who need help in landing a suitable and rewarding job. AI Hawk, Simplify and LazyApply are examples of platforms catering to this need. AI Hawk has a bold claim indicating that those who use their services have an 80% higher likelihood of landing a role in comparison to those who don’t use the service.

As these tools proliferate, some critics say the risk of errors and hallucination is high and users could be disadvantaged by the use of AI in the job search process. Others say automation erodes authenticity and could even disadvantage employers since they may select an individual whose application documents were embellished by AI.

Those concerns notwithstanding, the use of AI in everyday life activities is growing. The companies behind those AI tools could be basking in the limelight of their innovations, but behind this revolution lies several unsung heroes; including metals like gold and copper making it possible for AI components like chips and data centers to be built. Companies such as McEwen Mining Inc. (NYSE: MUX) (TSX: MUX), leveraging their expertise to help address the surging demand for those minerals, are well-positioned to capitalize on the rise of AI.

• ABC News reported that the price of gold climbed to an all-time high in October as uncertainty prompted investors to seek safe havens.
• Renforth Resources geologists are currently working to advance the knowledge of the Parbec project through several initiatives.
• The company is applying for stripping permits and undergoing a comprehensive geochemical analysis program.

This year has seen gold consistently increase in price, with many seeing the precious metal as an essential piece of a solid portfolio. In October, gold reached its all-time high — $2,790.07 — and many forecasters expect the price to go even higher before the year is over. With that as a backdrop, Renforth Resources (CSE: RFR) (OTCQB: RFHRF), an active mineral-exploration company engaged in the exploration and development of multicommodity mineral properties in Canada, released a report regarding new field work at its Quebec-based Parbec gold deposit (https://ibn.fm/aTtfB).

“The price of gold climbed to an all-time high [in October] as uncertainty about conflict in the Middle East and the U.S. presidential election sent investors in search of a safe haven,” reported ABC News (https://ibn.fm/Zinmo). “The latest jump is hardly a blip. Gold has soared about 32% since the outset of 2024, outpacing the 23% growth in the S&P 500 and a 28% surge in the tech-heavy NASDAQ over that same period.

“The monthslong stretch of strong performance owes in large part to an expectation of lower interest rates at the Federal Reserve, which typically coincide with an increase in gold prices, some analysts told ABC News,” the article continued. “They also pointed to purchases of gold reserves among central banks, as well as persistent demand from investors aiming to diversify their portfolio and hedge against global unrest.”

In its update for shareholders, Renforth Resources noted that its geologists are currently working to advance the knowledge of the Parbec project through several initiatives, including stripping permits and a comprehensive geochemical analysis program.

Renforth is in the process of applying for two stripping permits at Parbec gold deposit, with the objective of enhancing surface exposure by removing overburden and exposing bedrock and improving structural understanding of the site. “This will aid in creating improved surface visibility of underlying geological structures,” the company noted. “This will allow for more detailed mapping of the area.

“The exposed bedrock will provide valuable insights into the geological relationship between the Pontiac sediments and the Cadillac Break at Parbec,” the report continued. “This information is crucial for refining and validating Renforth’s current geological model of the deposit. Renforth has chosen these stripping locations due to their proximity to near-surface drill intersections. By exposing these zones at surface, Renforth aims to identify surface expressions of these drill intersections to serve as future bulk sampling locations.”

The company noted that the permit program was designed to complement its consistent efforts to advance the Parbec project, potentially leading to a more comprehensive understanding of the deposit’s near-surface gold potential and guiding future exploration and development strategies.

The geochemical analysis program at Parbec gold deposit is designed to determine the silver content within the Parbec deposit. The program will include the selection of representative core samples from previously assayed core, which will be submitted for multielement analysis. “The Cadillac Break, running through the Parbec Property, is widely recognized as a major deep-seated gold-bearing structure,” the company observed. “However, it is important to highlight that silver is produced at the adjacent Canadian Malartic Mine as well as at the former Lapa mine nearby.”

In addition, Renforth plans to apply an innovative analytical approach to core samples from Parbec, mirroring a successful technique employed at its Victoria polymetallic project. “This method involves a comprehensive core analysis of both mineralized and unmineralized material, using advanced sensing technology and proprietary algorithms developed by TOMRA,” the report stated. “This process allows for the identification and presorting of ore and waste material, potentially streamlining a future processing stream at Parbec. . . . Field work noted above will be commencing immediately, permit applications will be submitted shortly. Results of this work, when available, will be released.”

Renforth Resources is an active mineral-exploration company engaged in the exploration and development of the company’s wholly owned multicommodity mineral properties in Canada. In addition to the Parbec project, the company holds the Nixon Bartleman gold property in Ontario.
