VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Encore Technologies Corp. (“Encore” or the “Company”) (CSE: ENCR) is pleased to announce that, further to its news release dated June 25, 2026, it has completed its oversubscribed non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”) through the issuance of 6,410,461 common shares of the Company (each, a “Share”) at a price of $0.26 per Share for gross proceeds of $1,666,719.86.
The Company also announces that it has increased the size of its strategic investment in Solstar Space Company (“Solstar”) to approximately US$1.16 million. The loan proceeds will be advanced to Solstar immediately following completion of the final loan documentation pursuant to the previously announced secured convertible loan agreement.
“Completing this financing and increasing our investment in Solstar represents an important milestone for Encore,” said Stephen Kukucha, Chief Executive Officer of Encore. “We believe Solstar is uniquely positioned to provide communications infrastructure for the emerging space economy, and we look forward to supporting the Company’s next phase of growth while exploring opportunities to create long-term value through our strategic relationship.”
In connection with the Offering, the Company paid aggregate cash finder’s fees of $107,570.39 to certain finders. All securities issued under the Offering are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance.
The Offering constitutes a “related party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”) as two directors of the Company subscribed for an aggregate of 400,000 Shares for gross proceeds of $104,000. The Company relied on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as the fair market value of the consideration for the securities issued to the related parties did not exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change report in respect of the insiders’ participation at least 21 days before closing of the Offering because such participation had not been determined at that time.
