Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - June 5, 2020) - Sensor Technologies Corp. (CSE: SENS) ("Sensor") has postponed filing its unaudited interim financial statements, management's discussion and analysis, for the three months ending March 31, 2020, due to logistics and delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Sensor is relying on exempted relief recently granted by Canadian securities regulatory authorities that allows it to delay the filing of its annual documents required by National Instrument 51-102 by April 29, 2020. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, securities regulatory authorities in Canada have granted a blanket exemption allowing issuers an additional 45 days to complete their regulatory filings.
Sensor estimates that its interim documents will be available for filing at its earliest opportunity, which is expected to occur on or before July 14, 2020. Until such time as the interim documents are filed, Sensor's management and other insiders are subject to a trading blackout that reflects the principles contained in section 9 of National Policy 11-207 - Failure-to-File Cease Trade Orders and Revocations in Multiple Jurisdictions.
Since the date of the last interim financial statements, filed on November 28, 2019, for the nine months ending September 30, 2019, the Sensor entered into a non-binding letter of intent, dated December 23, 2019, (the "LOI") with EmersonGrow Technology Inc. ("EmersonGrow"), an arm's length party incorporated pursuant to the laws of the Province of Ontario. Pursuant to the terms of the LOI, Sensor will acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of EmersonGrow for an aggregate purchase price of $20 million (the "Purchase Price"). The Purchase Price will be satisfied through the issuance of an aggregate of 133,333,333 common shares in the capital of Sensor at a deemed price of $0.15 per share. In addition, Sensor entered into a share purchase agreement (the "Agreement") with an arm's length party with respect to the sale of 49% of the issued and outstanding securities in the capital of Sensor Technologies Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Sensor. As part of the sale, the purchaser assumed debt related to Sensor Technologies Inc. Copies of new releases disseminated subsequent to November 28, 2019 are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
Due to the various regulations imposed by government to prevent the continued spread of the coronavirus, Sensor Technologies Inc. has suspended all service and installation activities until such time that travel restrictions are removed. The Company continues to provide its clients with monitoring services.
In addition, Sensor would also like to announce that it has appointed Rodney Ireland to its board of directors.
Mr. Ireland brings over 15 years of capital markets experience consulting for several Toronto Stock Exchange, Australia Securities Exchange, TSX Venture Exchange and Canadian Securities Exchange companies. Formerly managing director of Fortbridge Canada, an international communications firm specializing in the resource sector, Mr. Ireland was a founding board member of Vanadium One and Green Panda Capital Corp. and served on the board of Forrester Metals.
The appointment of Mr. Ireland filled the vacancy created by the resignation of Mumin Demiral.
