Visionstate Corp. Announces Private Placement to Fund US Expansion
Edmonton, Alberta - November 24, 2023 – Visionstate Corp. (TSXV:VIS) (“Visionstate” or the “Company”) a leading provider of smart facility-management technology, today announced, subject to regulatory approval, a private placement to raise $400,000 for the issuance of 20,000,000 units at $0.02 per unit, with each unit consisting of one common share and one full warrant exercisable at $0.05 for two years.
The funds raised will primarily be allocated to expand the Company's product marketing efforts in the United States, where Visionstate IoT Inc., the Company's main operating division, has already established a strong presence with several prominent customers. The targeted focus will be on resellers of the WANDA™ product, a cutting-edge facility management application designed to track cleaning and maintenance activities.
In addition to fortifying its position in the US market, Visionstate Corp. will allocate resources to enhance its ViCCi 2.0 product. Set to launch in the first quarter of 2024, ViCCi 2.0 represents a significant evolution from its predecessor, leveraging artificial intelligence and conversational interfaces to provide advanced virtual customer assistance in brick and mortar settings.
Shannon Moore, President of Visionstate IoT Inc., commented on the significance of these developments: "We are at an inflection point when it comes to facility management software. Like other businesses, facility managers are looking at new ways of controlling costs and ensuring efficiency; our WANDA™ product enables them to do that, powered by analytical data on the operations."
The financing round and strategic initiatives underscore Visionstate Corp.'s commitment to driving innovation in facility management solutions, cementing its position as a leader in the rapidly evolving technology landscape. It is anticipated existing shareholders and insiders will participate in the financing.
In connection with the Offering, Visionstate will be relying on the existing security holders’ exemption as well as other available prospectus exemptions. For those investors relying upon the exemption for existing security holders, the aggregate acquisition cost to a subscribing shareholder of all securities of Visionstate cannot exceed $15,000 in the previous 12 months, unless that shareholder has obtained advice regarding the suitability of the investment from a registered investment dealer in the subscriber’s jurisdiction. The offer to purchase Units is available to all security holders of Visionstate who held common shares on the record date of November 23, 2023.
Shareholders residing in countries other than Canada need to meet local jurisdiction requirements to participate. If Visionstate receives total subscriptions pursuant to the existing security holders’ exemption which causes the Offering to exceed $400,000, Visionstate will accept such subscriptions on a first come, first served basis.
