Pre-workout or pre-game? FDA recalls cans of High Noon that were mislabeled as Celsius

Celsius, the maker of the fizzy energy drinks, was flat on the news.

Cans labeled as Celsius energy drinks meant to wake you up may have been trying to wind you down, according to a Wednesday recall from the Food and Drug Administration.

The FDA said 12-packs of High Noon Beach Variety were mislabeled as Celsius Astro Vibe, a nonalcoholic caffeinated beverage. The mixup was discovered after High Noon, owned by E&J Gallo Winery, noticed that a shared packaging supplier had mistakenly shipped it empty Celsius cans, the FDA said.

Consumption of the liquid in these cans will result in unintentional alcohol ingestion, the FDA said.

Celsius stock was flat on the day. The company is up more than 70% since the start of the year as its fizzy energy drinks gain in popularity.

OpenAI’s ARR reached over $20 billion in 2025, CFO says

Sam Altman’s $500 billion artificial intelligence behemoth hit a major financial milestone last year, according to a new blog post over the weekend from OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar, as the company confirmed it had hit a more than $20 billion annual revenue run rate at the end of 2025.

Elsewhere in the blog post, Friar spent time addressing the company’s shifting goals, referencing plans to “close the distance between where intelligence is advancing and how individuals, companies, and countries actually adopt and use it.” As has become customary in the AI company press release genre, the CFO was also keen to tout the unending growth of the business, writing:

  • Both our Weekly Active User (WAU) and Daily Active User (DAU) figures continue to produce all-time highs. This growth is driven by a flywheel across compute, frontier research, products, and monetization.

  • Compute grew 3X year over year or 9.5X from 2023 to 2025: 0.2 GW in 2023, 0.6 GW in 2024, and ~1.9 GW in 2025.

And, perhaps most importantly for current backers and those keeping an eye on the private company before its rumored mega IPO:

  • Revenue followed the same curve growing 3X year over year, or 10X from 2023 to 2025: $2B ARR in 2023, $6B in 2024, and $20B+ in 2025. This is never-before-seen growth at such scale.

That latest figure has certainly set tongues in the tech world wagging, just as the company announced it would begin rolling out ads to free and ChatGPT Go users. It also puts the chatbot giant a fair way ahead of competitors like Anthropic, the company behind Claude.
