Koios Provides Update on Failure to File Cease Trade Order

DENVER - December 23, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Koios Beverage Corp. (CSE: FIT; OTC: FITSF) (the "Company" or "Koios") announces that further to its press release dated December 16, 2022, the British Columbia Securities  Commission (the "BCSC") has issued a failure to file cease trade order against the Company ("FTFCTO") which orders that general trading, whether direct or indirect, by any person, of the securities of the Company, cease, which includes trading of the shares of the Company on the Canadian Securities Exchange. The Company is diligently working with its auditors to conclude the filings at the earliest possible time.

The delay in completing and filing the Company's financial statements stems from certain valuation information that was required in connection with the Company's acquisition of Retox Beverage Corp. on April 22, 2022, and the Company's need to engage additional accounting advisors to complete the requisite information and provide same to the Company's auditors. This process has taken longer than originally anticipated by the Company.

The Company announced via press release dated September 29, 2022 (the "Delayed Filing Announcement") that it had submitted an application to the BCSC for a management cease trade order (the "MCTO") pursuant to NP 12-203. The application for the MCTO was made in connection with the delay in filing the Company's audited annual financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2022, the related management's discussion and analysis and CEO and CFO certifications (such filings, collectively, the "Annual Filings"), which were required to be filed on or before September 28, 2022.

The MCTO was issued by the BCSC on September 29, 2022, extending the deadline for filing the Annual Filings to November 28, 2022. The MCTO prevented the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer from trading in the Company's securities but did not affect the ability of other shareholders, including the public, to trade in securities of the Company.

On November 29, 2022, the Company announced that the filing of its unaudited interim financial statements, related management's discussion and analysis and CEO and CFO certifications for the three months ended August 31, 2022, together with the Annual Filings, would be delayed beyond the extended filing deadline of November 28, 2022, as a result of the delay in completing the Annual Filings (the "Required Documents"). The MCTO remained in effect until December 20, 2022, at which time the Company notified the BCSC that it would be unable to complete and file the Required Documents by the extended filing deadline of December 20, 2022, and the BCSC has accordingly, issued the FTFCTO.

The FTFCTO will remain in effect until the receipt by the BCSC of all filings the Company is required to make under British Columbia securities law, including the Required Documents.

The Company confirms that since the date of the Delayed Filing Announcement, other than as described above: (i) there has been no material change to the information set out in the Delayed Filing Announcement that has not been generally disclosed; (ii) there has been no failure by the Company in fulfilling its stated intentions with respect to satisfying the provisions of the alternative information guidelines set out in NP 12-203; (iii) there has not been any other specified default by the Company under NP 12-203; and (iv) there is no other material information concerning the affairs of the Company that has not been generally disclosed.

The Company confirms that its business has not changed, there are no changes to its current business plans and that it does not expect any interruption of the operations of the Company during the FTFCTO. The company has continued to grow adding new retailers across the country. 

The Company confirms that it will continue to satisfy the provisions of the alternative information guidelines under NP 12-203 by issuing bi-weekly default status reports in the form of news releases for so long as it remains delayed in filing the Required Documents.

The Company anticipates that it will complete the Required Documents on or before January 10, 2023. The revocation of the FTFCTO is expected to occur within a few days after the Required Documents are filed.

On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company,

KOIOS BEVERAGE CORP.
