FRX Innovations Inc. Updates Late Filing of Annual Financial Statements and Management Cease Trade Order

Vancouver, BC - TheNewswire - June 30, 2023 - FRX Innovations Inc. (TSXV:FRXI) (FSE:W2A.F) (OTC:FRXIF) (“FRX” or the “Company”), previously announced that, as a result of delays in completion of its audit, caused by involuntary changes in its auditors, the Company had not filed its annual financial statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the "Annual Filings") by April 30, 2023, being the date that such filings are due under applicable Canadian securities law requirements. The Company was granted a management cease trade order (the "MCTO") by the Ontario Securities Commission on May 02, 2023.

In light of the Company’s determination that the Q1 filings will not be filed on or before the required deadline, the Ontario Securities Commission confirms that MCTO should remain in place until such time the annual filings and the Q1 interims are filed in effect extending the MCTO to July 12, 2023.

The Company reports that MNP LLP is in the final stages of their audit.

The Company further confirms that there are no material undisclosed items. Until the Company files the Annual Filings, it will comply with the alternative information guidelines set out in National Policy 12-203. The guidelines, among other things, require the Company to issue bi-weekly status reports by way of a news release so long as the Annual Filings have not been filed.

During the MCTO, officers, directors, and other special relationship persons are in a blackout period for the duration of the (anticipated) default and have been advised of this by the Company.
