VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 31, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Subject to all requisite regulatory approvals, Victory Square Technologies Inc. (“Victory Square” or the “Company”) (CSE: VST, OTC: VSQTF, FWB: 6F6) an emerging technology accelerator, announces it intends to convert an aggregate of $805,240.47, the majority of which comprises loans advanced to the Company by Shafin Diamond Tejani, Chief Executive Officer of Victory Square, into common shares in the capital of the Company (the “Shares”). Each Share would be issued at a deemed value of $1.00 per Share. As the current market price is $0.84 per Share, the deemed value represents a premium of 19% per Share.
"Mr. Tejani's conversion of the amount due to him into Victory Square stock at $1.00 per share has received unanimous endorsement from the Company's Board of Directors," said Howard Blank, Audit Committee Chairman of Victory Square. "The conversion at a large premium to the current market price reflects Mr. Tejani’s confidence that the Company is overly discounted relative to the operational growth that has been exhibited thus far in 2018. Victory Square’s management is very pleased with the growth prospects in its operations and portfolio companies and believes the current market capitalization does not adequately reflect the value of the Company. With a range of investments in a growing list of innovative portfolio companies, the Company is confident in its near and long-term growth prospects for its stakeholders.”
All Shares issuable to satisfy the amount payable shall be subject to a four month hold period under applicable Canadian securities laws.
