NFT Tech Announces Late Filing Of Annual Financial Statements And Management Cease Trade Order

Vancouver, British Columbia, March 15, 2023 – NFT Technologies Inc. (Cboe Canada: NFT | Frankfurt: 8LO | OTC Pink: NFTFF) ("NFT Tech" or the “Company”), announced today that as a result of delays in completion of its audit, it will miss the deadline of March 31, 2023 to file its financial statements and accompanying management’s discussion and analysis for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the "Annual Filings"). 

The reason for the default is due in part to a refresh issue discovered in the financial reporting software connected to the Company’s blockchain wallets used to determine the value of the digital asset portfolio of the Company. In connection with the inconsistencies found in the digital asset software, the auditors informed NFT Tech that it required access to updated blockchain data and additional time to review prior to being able to complete the audit in the time required by National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Requirements. The Company will work with the auditors to complete the audit in a timely manner. The Company has contacted the software vendor and will receive a software update which will correct the refresh issue within the upcoming weeks. 

Accordingly, the Company has informed staff of the British Columbia Securities Commission ("BCSC") about its anticipated delay in filing the Annual Filings and has applied for a Management Cease Trade Order ("MCTO") from the BCSC pursuant to Part 4 of National Policy 12-203 – Management Cease Trade Orders ("NP 12-203") pending the filing of the Annual Filings, which MCTO will prohibit the Company's management from trading in the securities of the Company until such time as the Annual Filings are filed. Pursuant to the MCTO, the deadline for NFT Tech to file the Annual Filings is on or before May 30, 2024. 

The Company currently expects to file the Annual Filings on or before May 15, 2024 and will issue a news release announcing the completion of such filings at such time. Until the Company files the Annual Filings, it will comply with the alternative information guidelines set out in NP 12-203 for issuers who have failed to comply with a specified continuous disclosure requirement within the times prescribed by applicable securities laws. The guidelines, among other things, require the Company to issue bi-weekly default status reports by way of a news release so long as the Annual Filings have not been filed.

During the MCTO, the general investing public will continue to be able to trade in the Company's listed common shares. However, the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer will not be able to trade in the Company's shares.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
