Subversive Real Estate Acquisition REIT LP Announces Filing of Preliminary Prospectus
TORONTO, Feb. 9, 2021 /CNW/ - SUBVERSIVE REAL ESTATE ACQUISITION REIT LP (NEO: SVX.U) (OTCQX: SBVRF) ("SVX") announced today that it has filed and obtained a receipt for its preliminary prospectus (the "Prospectus") in connection with its qualifying transaction to combine with InterCure Ltd. (dba Canndoc) (TASE: INCR), Israel's leading cannabis company (the "Transaction"). Canndoc, a wholly owned subsidiary of InterCure Ltd., is Israel's largest licensed cannabis producer and one of the first to offer Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) certified and pharmaceutical-grade medical cannabis products in pharmacies across the country. With the largest distribution network, significant logistical capabilities, and a lucrative vertically integrated strategy, Canndoc is the fastest-growing and most profitable cannabis company in Israel, with a Q4 2020 expected EBITDA annualized run rate of greater than US$10 million and positive free cash flow. Furthermore, we believe that Canndoc is well-positioned to capitalize on the adult-use market in Israel, which is expected to be legalized in 2021 or 2022.
In connection with the Transaction, SVX has entered into agreements in respect of a US$65 million private placement, pursuant to which it will issue 6.5 million units at a price of US$10.00 per unit immediately prior to, and conditional on, among other things, completion of the Transaction (the "Private Placement"). The proceeds of the Private Placement are intended to be used in connection with the Transaction and to fund the growth of Canndoc following closing.
SVX has applied to list its Restricted Voting Units and Rights, which currently trade on the Neo Exchange Inc. under the symbols "SVX.U" and "SVX.RT.U" and the OTCQX under the symbols SBVRF, on the TSX in advance of closing, which listing is subject to approval by the TSX. It is expected that the Restricted Voting Units and Rights will trade on the TSX under the symbols "SVX.U" and "SVX.RT.U".
It is a condition to closing that, upon closing, the combined company will commence trading on Nasdaq and TSX, which listing will be subject to approval from the applicable exchanges, and trade on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange. It is also contemplated that the Rights will be automatically converted into limited partnership units of SVX in connection with closing of the Transaction. Further details regarding the post-closing ticker symbol will be provided in advance of closing.
In connection with the filing of the Prospectus, SVX also re-filed its unaudited condensed interim financial statements and management's discussion for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 (the "Financial Statements") to reflect the restatement of the unaudited condensed interim financial statements that were filed on November 13, 2020. The restatement is described in detail on the notice to reader to the Financial Statements, which, along with the Prospectus, are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
