(via TheNewswire)

VANCOUVER, British Columbia – TheNewswire - March 15, 2023 – FRX Innovations (TSXV:FRXI) (FSE:W2A.F) (OTC:FRXIF) (“FRX” or the “Company”), a leader in eco-friendly flame-retardant solutions, is pleased to announce the completion of its non-brokered private placement offering (the "Offering") of 13,091,000 units of the Company ("Units") at a price per Unit of $0.30 for aggregate gross proceeds of $3,927,300. $22,500 of this amount was subscribed for by pro-groups as defined by the TSX Venture Exchange. The first tranche for $1,335,000 closed on February 27, 2023, and this final tranche, now fully subscribed, is expected to close on or about March 16, 2023.

Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (a "Unit Share") and one common share purchase warrant of the Company (each whole such warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share of the Company at a price of $0.40 at any time on or before the 36-month anniversary of the date of closing.

Aggregate commissions of $110,592 and 368,640 warrants were paid in association with the Offering. The net proceeds from the Offering will be used for general and corporate working capital purposes. All securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period ending on June 28, 2023 and July 17, 2023 for each tranche respectively.

FRX CEO, Marc Lebel stated “legislation passed in both the EU and the US in 2022 banning toxic flame retardants from use in electronic display housings, combined with 3M’s recent decision to shut down its PFAS business and the European Chemical Agency’s decision to place both Melamine and a high-volume brominated flame retardant on the Substance of Very High Concern List is creating considerable tail winds for FRX. We are increasingly being recognized as a leader in the green revolution currently accelerating the transition to sustainable solutions like FRX’s Nofia® with the new regulations driving adoptions especially over the next 6 to 36 months. This final closing brings to an end the recent fund-raising campaign that added a total of $5.53M to the FRX treasury since December 2022. FRX is at an exciting inflection point in its growth trajectory and we are particularly encouraged by the high-quality shareholders that we have been able to attract to FRX during this campaign. The funds raised will support the working capital required to fund this coming growth. It is an exciting time for FRX Innovations.”
