All of those apart from MacAllan and arran and Penderyn are new entrants (and even arran and Penderyn are fairly new), hence selling off new make casks to regain some capital.
Apart from Mcnean and mark littler which I know nothing of, none of them sell to blenders, all distill with the intention of stock going to their own brand single malt.
Middleton have only just started selling their own single pot still but have been trading off stock bought from one of the big Irish distillers for quite a few years.
Ardnahoe is one of the new Islay distilleries up by caol ila and lagg is the other new distillery on arran (think also owned by arran). Both will make peated new make, hence the price bump as peat is fashionable currently.

There may be others so please add to the list.

OK. A bit of Googling gave me the following articles

There may be others so please add to the list. @DethBeard I'd be interested in what your broker says.
A couple of thoughts on this list
a) these could be new entrants to the market (possible but distilleries and licensing are expensive yo)
b) these are more likely commercial distilleries that make whisky that ends up in lots of blends (Chivas, Jonny Walker, and other blends sold for export). They are not necessarily bad quality, just an unknown quality to us. There are a lot of these around and you will see lots of them around Speyside.
c) these are originally distilleries from b) looking for new revenue sources
d) Straight up ignore either Pendryn or The Yorkshire one. Just no.
