TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SOL Global Investments Corp. (the “Company” or “SOL Global”) (CSE: SOL) (OTCQ: SOLCF) (Frankfurt: 9SB), announces that on July 22, 2021 it had acquired ownership of 205,000 common shares (the “Common Shares”) in the capital of KWESST Micro Systems Inc. (“KWE”) on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) at a price of CAD$2.08 per Common Share (the “First Transaction”), and that on August 18, 2021 it had acquired ownership of 15,000 Common Shares on the TSXV at a price of CAD$1.97 per Common Share (the “Second Transaction”). The completion of the First Transaction resulted in an increase from approximately 9.1% to approximately 9.6% in SOL Global’s security holding percentage of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a non-diluted basis. In addition, SOL Global owns 370,000 Common Share purchase warrants (the “Warrants”).

Assuming that all of the Warrants are each exercised for one Common Share, SOL Global owned approximately 10.3% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a partially-diluted basis immediately after the completion of the First Transaction. The completion of the Second Transaction resulted in an increase of 2.0% in SOL Global’s security holding percentage of the issued and outstanding Common Shares from approximately 9.6% to 11.6% on a non-diluted basis, and approximately 10.3% to 12.3% on a partially-diluted basis, in each case from the date of the completion of the First Transaction.

The forward-looking information contained in this press release includes, without limitation, information relating to the Company’s investment plans.
Forward-looking information is based upon certain material assumptions that were applied in drawing a conclusion or making a forecast or projection, including management's perceptions of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other considerations that are believed to be appropriate in the circumstances. While we consider these assumptions to be reasonable based on information currently available to management, there is no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct.
By their nature, forward-looking information is subject to inherent risks and uncertainties that may be general or specific and which give rise to the possibility that expectations, forecasts, predictions, projections or conclusions will not prove to be accurate, that assumptions may not be correct and that objectives, strategic goals and priorities will not be achieved.

Other risk factors include: the risks resulting from investing in the US marijuana industry, which may be legal under certain state and local laws but is currently illegal under U.S. federal law; the risks of investing in securities of private companies which may limit the Company’s ability to sell or otherwise liquidate those securities and realize value; reliance on management; the ability of the Company to service its debt; the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing from time to time to pursue its business objectives; competition; litigation; inconsistent public opinion and perception regarding the medical-use and adult-use marijuana industry; and regulatory or political change.
