(TSXV: INEO) ("INEO" or the "Company"), an innovative provider of location based digital advertising, data analytics and loss prevention solutions for retailers, is pleased to announce that it has amended the terms of its previously announced marketed public offering (the "Offering") of units of the Company (the "Units"). Under the amended terms, the company will offer for sale a minimum of 11,111,111 Units at a price of $0.36 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $4,000,000 and up to a maximum of up to 16,917,000 Units for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $6,090,120. In the event the Over-Allotment Option (as defined below) is exercised in full under the maximum Offering, the total number of Units issued under the Offering shall be 19,454,550 for aggregate gross proceeds of $7,003,638.
The Company filed a preliminary prospectus with the British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario Securities Commissions in respect of the Offering on February 16, 2021. The amended terms of the Offering will be included in the final prospectus for the Offering.
Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company (a "Share") and one-half of one Share purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will be exercisable to acquire one Share (a "Warrant Share") for a period of 24 months following the closing of the offering (the "Closing") at an exercise price of $0.55 per Warrant Share.
The Offering is being conducted on a "best efforts" agency basis by a syndicate of agents led by Beacon Securities Limited as lead agent and sole bookrunner (the "Lead Agent"), and including Haywood Securities Inc. and PI Financial Corp. (collectively the "Agents"). The Offering will be conducted pursuant to the terms of an agency agreement (the "Agency Agreement") to be entered into between the Company and the Agents. The Agency Agreement will provide that the Company will grant the Agents an option (the "Over-Allotment Option"), to offer for sale up to an additional 15% of the number of Units sold under the Offering. The Over-Allotment Option is exercisable in whole or in part at any time, for a period of 30 days after and including the Closing date of the Offering. The Over-Allotment Option is exercisable to acquire Units, Shares and/or Warrants (or any combination thereof) at the discretion of the Agents.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering to advance the development and commercial deployment of the INEO Welcoming System, working capital and general corporate purposes.
The Offering is expected to close on such date as may be agreed between the Lead Agent and the Company, and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and stock exchange approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and the applicable securities regulatory authorities.
