Core One Labs Provides Update on Financial Statements and Management Cease Trade Order
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / July 15, 2020 / Core One Labs Inc. (CSE:COOL)(OTCQX:CLABD)(Frankfurt:LD62)(WKN:A2P8K3) (the “Company“). The Company wishes to advise its valued shareholders that the new management team (“Management“) is currently working with its auditor and accountants around the clock to finalize its audited financial statements and the related management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A“) for the year-ended December 31, 2019. With the majority of the Company’s operations being located in California, COVID -19 has caused delays to the audit that are beyond Management’s control due to the ongoing border closure with the United States, travel restrictions arising from the ongoing pandemic, and related lockdowns imposed by the State of California.
Management continues to work closely with its auditor to ensure the audit is completed as close to the July 15th deadline as possible. At the outset, Management was able to identify the areas of the audit which required the most amount of attention, and moved to address those immediately, including deploying funds from the recently completed financing to settle an outstanding account with the auditors. Daily update calls are being done with the auditors and accountants to ensure the auditors have the full support of Management to expedite this process and ensure that shareholder value is not lost due to a prolonged cease trade.
The Company confirms that it has the financial resources necessary to complete the audit, and now anticipates being in a position to file the audited financial statements for the year-ended December 31, 2019, along with the interim financial statements for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, and their related MD&A (collectively, the “Required Filings“), by July 31, 2020.
“With new management coming on board, our goal is to create shareholder value and build a strong Company. Although there were some clean-up issues when we took over management of the Company, we feel that we have a handle on all items that impact the Company, and are excited about moving the Company forward. The Company is now properly capitalized with two operating assets which are generating monthly revenue. I feel that we are in a strong position to grow the business and create shareholder value, once we get through this challenge,” said Joel Shacker, CEO of the Company.
The Company is currently subject to a management cease trade order (“MCTO“) issued by the British Columbia Securities Commission (“BCSC“) on June 16, 2020. The BCSC has now notified the Company that it will not consent to an extension of the MCTO beyond July 15, 2020, and as a result the Company anticipates that a general cease trade order will be issued by the BCSC. It is anticipated that a general cease trade order will remain in effect, and trading in the securities of the Company will be suspended, until the Required Filings are completed.
