Nextech AR CEO Evan Gappelberg commented, “A rapidly rising number of companies within the eCommerce ecosystem are recognizing the game changing ROI and customer satisfaction experienced by implementing 3D/AR models on their eCommerce websites. We are currently working directly with some of the world’s largest eCommerce retailers and are integrated with the largest eCommerce marketplaces including, Shopify, BigCommerce and WooCommerce, who are now all rolling out 3D/AR and setting the standard for Web 3.0 in eCommerce. In my opinion it is evident that it won't be long before all eCommerce businesses must follow suit to stay competitive in the marketplace.” He continued, “We firmly believe that the transition from flat 2D photos to 3D models is in full swing and that 3D models are currently being established as the standard in eCommerce throughout the globe.

The Company also announces today that in order to manage its cash flow and reduce or possibly eliminate its dependency of raising capital for payroll it has established a new share purchase warrant program pursuant to which it will issue an aggregate of 7,434,115 share purchase warrants (the “Warrants”) to its service providers in connection with their employment and/or consulting arrangements with the Company. Each Warrant will be exercisable to acquire one common share of the Company (an “Underlying Share”) at an exercise price of Cdn$0.84 for a period of one year. The Warrants will be automatically exercised in equal monthly tranches on a pro rata basis over the term of the Warrants, and the exercise price will be satisfied by the monthly salaries otherwise payable by the Company to the recipients of the Warrants. Upon exercise, the recipients of the Warrants may opt to either receive the Underlying Shares, or participate in a managed sale program to sell the Underlying Shares on the open market and receive the cash proceeds. Any shortfall as a result of participation in such a managed sale program will be funded by the Company.
