TORONTO, April 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FRNT Financial Inc. (TSXV:FRNT) (OTCQB:FRFLF) (FSE:XZ3) (the “Company” or “FRNT”) is pleased to announce a brokered private placement offering of up to 5,000,000 units of the Company (“Units”) at a price of C$0.60 per Unit (the “Offering Price”), for aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$3,000,000 (the “LIFE Offering”). The Offering is being led by Fort Capital Securities Ltd. (the “Agent”) as the sole agent and sole bookrunner on a “best efforts” basis.

Each Unit will be comprised of one common share of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share (each, a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of C$0.90 for 36 months following the completion of the LIFE Offering, subject to accelerated expiry in the event the volume-weighted average closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) is $1.20 or more for ten (10) consecutive trading days, in which case the Company may accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants to the date that is thirty (30) days following the issuance of a news release by the Company announcing such acceleration.

The Units to be issued under the LIFE Offering will be offered to purchasers pursuant to the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption (the “LIFE Exemption”) under Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions, in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario and Saskatchewan. The Units offered will not be subject to a hold period in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.

There is an offering document (the “Offering Document”) related to the LIFE Offering that can be accessed under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com and on the Company’s website at https://frnt.io/. Prospective investors of the Units should read the Offering Document before making an investment decision.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the LIFE Offering to continue scaling its business and building out its capital base, and for working capital and general corporate purposes, as more specifically described in the Offering Document. The LIFE Offering is scheduled to close on or about April 30, 2024 or such other date that is within 45 days from April 5, 2024 as the Company and Agent may agree (the “Closing Date”). The Life Offering remains subject to certain conditions customary for transactions of this nature, including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the TSXV.

The securities to be offered pursuant to the LIFE Offering, and sale of the Additional Units, have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”) or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, United States persons absent registration or any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws.
