A2Z Smart Technologies Corp. ("A2Z" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:AZ)(TSXV:AZ) ($AZ), a global leader in innovative technology solutions, is pleased to announce the unanimous approval of a plan by its Board of Directors to spin off its 80% interest in Advanced Automotive Innovations Inc ("AAI").
As part of the restructuring, AAI is expected to become a publicly traded company, such that all shareholders in A2Z will receive an equivalent pro-rata shareholding in AAI. The Board has authorized the engagement of experienced legal, financial, tax, securities, and other consultants and auditors to oversee the entire restructuring process. The restructuring is subject to receipt of all corporate and shareholder approvals as well as receipt of all regulatory approvals including that of the TSX Venture Exchange. The Company anticipates that the restructuring will be completed in Q2, 2024.
AAI specializes in the automotive safety sector and is currently developing a groundbreaking "Fuel Tank Inertia Capsule System" ("FTICS") designed to prevent fuel combustion in the event of a vehicle collision. AAI holds a patent with the U.S. Department of Commerce for FTICS and is actively working towards the commercialization of a product that can be seamlessly integrated into automobile gasoline tanks.
Gadi Graus, President of A2Z, stated, "We believe that the pioneering and lifesaving "Fuel Tank Inertia Capsule System" being developed by AAI has remarkable potential. This proposed spin-off represents a significant opportunity for AAI to further the development of the system as an independent company, to realize its maximum potential, and to allow A2Z to concentrate its resources more fully on the Cust2mate smart cart solution. We are committed to ensuring that the transition is executed seamlessly and efficiently. We look forward to the exciting developments and value creation that we believe this strategic decision will bring to A2Z and AAI and to enhancing our shareholders' value."
Further press releases will be forthcoming as the restructuring progresses.
