Fibocom and Du Showcase ALL-IN-ONE AI CPE Solution with Enhanced AI NAS Fibocom and du showcased the upgraded ALL-IN-ONE AI CPE solution featuring an enhanced AI NAS, further integrating 5G, AI and real-life scenarios. The upgrade transforms home storage from passive data retention into active intelligent management, delivering more personalized smart home experiences. Fibocom first introduced the ALL-IN-ONE AI CPE at NetworkX in France in October 2025, redefining the traditional 5G CPE form factor. The device integrates intelligent voice interaction, human and environmental sensing, and leverages Fibocom's proprietary FWA AI SkyEngine to enable multi-scenario applications including smart home network management, home security, and smart home control. The latest upgrade significantly enhances home data management. Powered by SkyEngine computing capabilities, the built-in AI NAS allows users to quickly locate photos by entering keywords, eliminating the need to manually search large file libraries. The system can also detect duplicate photos and notify users to free up storage space efficiently. Natural voice interaction further simplifies the experience. Users can search content through voice commands, such as requesting "family photos from last summer at the beach," while the AI NAS automatically categorizes photos by location, time, people and themes to generate personalized digital albums. All photo recognition and retrieval are processed locally through edge AI to ensure privacy and data security, supported by a physical privacy switch. The CPE also supports HDMI output, allowing users to display photos on larger screens via voice commands, enhancing shared family experiences. By integrating AI NAS, intelligent interaction and network optimization, the ALL-IN-ONE AI CPE continues evolving from traditional communication hardware into a full-scenario intelligent home hub, helping operators accelerate the shift toward platform-based services in the 5G FWA ecosystem.

New major risk - Dividend sustainability The dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 100% Cash payout ratio: 101% Dividend yield: 5.9% This is considered a major risk. Companies that pay out too much of their earnings and cash flows are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future. If earnings or cash flows stagnate or fall, then there may not be enough to maintain the same dividend. Or in extreme cases, companies may opt to dig into capital reserves or take on debt to maintain the dividend. For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company.
