Nobu has worked within the Food and Manufacturing industry for over 6 years and has audit experience in food companies, and manufacturing companies. His wealth of knowledge is well-suited for the company.
- The Company is providing this bi-weekly update on the status of the management cease trade order granted on August 2, 2022 (the "MCTO") by its principal regulator, the British Columbia Securities Commission under National Policy 12-203 -Management Cease Trade Orders ("NP 12-203"), following the Company's announcement on August 2, 2022 (the "Default Announcement") that it was unable to file its audited annual financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2022, and accompanying management's discussion and analysis, annual information form and related certifications (collectively, the "Documents") on or before August 2, 2022, as required under applicable securities laws. The MCTO does not affect the ability of investors who are not insiders to trade in the securities of the Company.
The Company reports that: (i) there are no changes to the information contained in the bi-weekly status updated dated August 2, 2022, that would reasonably be expected to be material to an investor; (ii) the Company is satisfying and confirms that it intends to continue to satisfy the provisions of the alternative information guidelines under NP 12-203 and issue bi-weekly default status reports for so long as the delay in filing the Documents is continuing, each of which will be issued in the form of a press release; (iii) there has not been any other specified default by the Company under NP 12-203, and, except as set forth below, no such other default is anticipated; (iv) the Company is not subject to any insolvency proceedings; and (v) there is no material information concerning the affairs of the Company that has not been generally disclosed.
The Company continues to work with its auditors to complete the audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements and expects to file the Documents by August 31, 2022. The delays primarily result from the close proximity of the Company's acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Beanfields, Inc. on February 16, 2022 and the Company's financial year end of March 31 and the work required to consolidate those operations.
