TORONTO, Nov. 10, 2021 /CNW/ - NowVertical Group Inc. (TSXV: NOW) ("NOW" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has filed a preliminary short form prospectus with the securities commissions or similar regulatory authorities in each of the Provinces of Canada (other than Quebec) (the "Canadian Jurisdictions"), in connection with an overnight marketed public offering (the "Offering") of units of the Company (the "Units") for minimum gross proceeds of C$5,000,000 and maximum gross proceeds of C$8,000,000.

The Offering will be conducted by Echelon Wealth Partners Inc. (the "Agent"), as sole agent and bookrunner, and is subject to customary closing conditions, including the approval of the securities regulatory authorities and the TSX Venture Exchange.
The Offering will be completed (i) by way of a short form prospectus to be filed in the Canadian Jurisdictions; (ii) on a private placement basis in the United States pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"); and (iii) outside Canada and the United States on a basis which does not require the qualification or registration of any of the Company's securities under domestic or foreign securities laws.
The Offering is expected to close on or about December 7, 2021, or such other date as the Company and the Agent may agree.
The size of the Offering and the price per Unit (the "Issue Price") will be determined in the context of the market.
The Company has granted the Agent an option to purchase up to an additional 15% of the Units sold under the Offering, at the Issue Price. The Over-Allotment Option may be exercised in whole or in part to purchase Subordinate Voting Shares, Warrants or Units as determined by the Agent upon written notice to the Company at any time and from time to time for a period of 30 days from and including the closing date of the Offering (the "Over-Allotment Option").
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering (i) to increase its sales and marketing team, (ii) to increase its finance and operations team, (iii) for product development, (iv) for general and administrative expenses and (v) to close potential acquisitions.
