ST. JOHN'S, Newfoundland, July 04, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kraken Robotics Inc. (“Kraken” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: PNG, OTCQB: KRKNF) announces that its 2023 Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders was held virtually on Tuesday, June 27, 2023, at 1 pm EST. Shareholders voted in favour of all items put forward by the Board of Directors and Management. A total of 63,376,975 common shares were voted, representing 30.76% of total shares issued and outstanding as at the record date of the meeting.

Shareholders voted in favour of:
