Toronto, ON — TheNewswire - May 26, 2023 — Hill Street Beverage Company Inc. (TSXV:HILL) (OTC:HSEEF) ("Hill”, or the “Company”) is pleased to make the following announcements.
Name Change to Hill Incorporated
The Company announces that further to its May 4, 2023 press release, effective on or about Tuesday, May 30, 2023, the Company will change its name from Hill Street Beverage Company Inc. to Hill Incorporated. The Name Change serves to better reflect the Corporation's evolution from an alcohol-free beverage company solely to a company holding a portfolio of bioscience-driven, technology-powered consumer solutions in the alcohol-free beverage and cannabis industries.
Share Consolidation
Further, the Company announces the consolidation of its common shares on the basis of 75 pre-consolidation shares for 1 post-consolidation share (the “Share Consolidation”). The shares are expected to begin trading on a consolidated basis on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) on Tuesday, May 30, 2023. Following the completion of the Share Consolidation, there are expected to be 3,244,378 post-consolidation shares outstanding. Shareholder approval of the Share Consolidation was approved by shareholders on May 2, 2023. The Share Consolidation is subject to final approval of the TSXV.
Company shareholders will receive 1 post-consolidation share for every 75 pre-consolidation shares held by them. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the Share Consolidation. Fractional interests will be rounded to the nearest whole number of shares without any consideration payable therefor.
A new CUSIP number of 43147B109 replaces the old CUSIP number of CA43147B1094. The Company’s stock trading symbol will remain unchanged.
The Share Consolidation is being conducted on a “push-out” basis. Shareholders of the Company, with or without a physical share certificate, do not need to take any action with respect to the Share Consolidation. DRS statements for the post-consolidation shares will be mailed on or about June 2, 2023 and existing share certificates will be cancelled.
With respect to the Company’s warrants issued in April 2021 with an expiration date of April 9, 2024, the new CUSIP number is 43147B117 and the new ISIN is CA43147B1177. No action is required by existing warrantholders as a new warrant confirmation will be sent out.
The Board of Directors of the Company has concluded that the Share Consolidation is in the best interests of Shareholders as it could lead to increased interest in the Company’s shares by a wider audience of potential investors, and may result in an increase in the trading volume and liquidity of its shares.
