Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 10, 2023) - Xybion Digital Inc. (TSXV: XYBN) ("Xybion" or the "Company") is providing an update with respect to the management cease trade order ("MCTO") issued by the British Columbia Securities Commission (the "BCSC") on August 1, 2023, and as announced by the Company on July 14, 2023 and August 14, 2023. The MCTO was issued by the BCSC in connection with the delay by the Company in filing its annual audited financial statements, management's discussion and analysis and related officer certifications for the financial year ended March 31, 2023 (collectively, the "Annual Filings"). The company has requested and received from the BCSC an extension to the MCTO until October 16, 2023.
The completion of such Annual Filings was delayed as a result of the Company's former auditor being disqualified by the Canadian Public Accountability Board from issuing audit opinions. The Company continues to work closely with its newly appointed auditor, Davidson & Company LLP, to complete the Annual Filings as soon as practicable.
The Company is providing this status update in accordance with National Policy 12-203 - Management Cease Trade Orders ("NP 12-203"). The Company intends to follow the provisions of the Alternative Information Guidelines set out in NP 12-203, including the issuance of bi-weekly default status reports in the form of news releases, for as long as the Company remains in default. The Company confirms as of the date of this news release that there has been no material change in the information contained in the default announcement issued July 14, 2023, and the default status reports issued August 14, 2023, August 28, 2023, September 11, 2023, and September 25, 2023 and there is no other material information concerning the affairs of the Company that has not been generally disclosed. The company anticipates filing the Annual Filing and remedying its default on or before October 16, 2023.
