Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - February 3, 2016) - EnerDynamic Hybrid
Technologies Corp. (TSXV: EHT) ('EHT' or the 'Company') wishes to provide
an update on the previously announced EVIA Finance S.A.R.L.('EVIA')
transaction whereby EHT Luxembourg S.A.R.L.('EHT Luxembourg'), a wholly
owned subsidiary of the Company, would acquire all of the issued and
outstanding shares of EVIA (the 'Acquisition'). On August 10, 2015, EHT
announced the closing of the cash portion of the Acquisition and the
continuation of due diligence on the financial statements of EVIA. Further,
on October 13th, 2015 EHT announced the appointment of Mr. Roman Eder to
the position of CEO of the Company.
As previously disclosed, under the terms and conditions of the Share Purchase Agreement executed in July, 2015 between Innovo Phoenix S.A.R.L. ('Innovo'), a corporation controlled by Mr. Eder, and EHT Luxembourg, whereby Mr. Eder agreed to sell all of the shares in EVIA to EHT Luxembourg (the 'SPA'), for cash and up to 35,000,000 common shares in the capital of the Company. The common shares were to be issued upon fulfilment of certain conditions set forth in the SPA, the most notable being the receipt by the Company of audited financial statements of EVIA, honoring terms and conditions precedent with a previous equity holder ('Prior Owner') of the EVIA shares and the approval of the Acquisition by the TSX. As of the date of this news release, audited financial statements have not been received nor have certain terms been honored by Innovo with respect to the Prior Owner. The Company does however note that the shares of EVIA were transferred to EHT Luxembourg as the cash portion of the transaction was satisfied.
EHT and its financial advisor Kingsdale Capital, recently conducted further due diligence in respect of EVIA and its business, which included sending a team to Senegal and Luxembourg to meet with persons associated with EVIA and counterparties to EVIA contracts and also conducted meetings with EVIA's accountants and EHT's Luxembourg legal counsel. In Senegal, EHT attended meetings with the Ministries of Finance and Health as well as with banking and funding partners related to a significant hospital contract for which IQ Technologies GmbH ('IQ'), a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of EVIA has been asked to provide a proposal for the project. The contract is not subject to a competitive tender process. If successful, the contract would be issued to EHT or a designated subsidiary as the lead contractor with partners to be chosen by EHT/EVIA and its Senegal partners. Additional information about this potential contract will be disclosed as the process unfolds.
Following meetings with EVIA's accountant, it has been determined that the audited financial statements of EVIA are not complete and additional time will be required to complete the audit process. EHT has now taken over direct control of the audit process and follow-up meetings will be held over the next few weeks to complete the audits of EVIA for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2015. Given the delay in the receipt of EVIA's financial statements preventing the complete closing of the Acquisition, EHT will not be in a position to report its financial statements on a consolidated basis for fiscal 2015. As a result, EHT's MD&A and financial statements will be reported on a standalone basis until the Acquisition is closed.
EHT has been informed of a commercial dispute between Innovo and the Prior Owner of the shares of EVIA. As a result of this commercial dispute and given the extensive delays, including non-receipt of financial statements to complete the Acquisition, EHT has informed Innovo and Mr. Eder that the terms of the SPA are under review including the issuance of the 35,000,000 common shares in the Company. In order to resolve the matter with the Prior Owner, EHT may increase the cash portion of the Acquisition or issue shares to the Prior Owner. Any cash payment would be payable over time and may be made by way of financing or by way of cash flow in the event EHT secures a large cash payment via a successful contract win through EHT's current energy and modular housing business pipeline. The Acquisition, if all-cash, may not require TSXV approval due to the all-cash structure of the Acquisition.
At this time, and until the audited financial statements of EVIA are received and the matter with the Prior Owner has been finalized, the Board of Directors has asked Mr. Roman Eder to recuse himself from duties of CEO and President of the Company. Mr. John Gamble will be appointed as the Interim CEO and President. Mr. Gamble is currently the CEO of the Company's operating subsidiary, Director of Strategic Planning, a member of the Board of Directors and the founding CEO of the Company.
The Board of Directors is reviewing the various outstanding matters related to the Evia Acquisition and will provide an update in the near future as events warrant.
