Key Highlights:
Article content
Under the agreement, DevvStream will allocate 75% of the net proceeds (70% of the initial tranche) toward the purchase of liquid digital assets that offer 24/7 liquidity, serve as non-correlated stores of value, and may be used as collateral for future credit facilities.
This program complements DevvStream's core business of developing, acquiring, and monetizing environmental assets in coordination with its objective to expand investor access to tokenized sustainability infrastructure. The Company is also actively exploring the tokenization of its existing environmental asset portfolio and anticipates further announcements as its platform scales.
Additionally, the strategy is expected to provide opportunities to generate multiple revenue streams, including staking yields, while reducing reliance on equity financing through crypto-backed credit options.
The notes may be converted by the holder into the Company's Common Shares at an initial conversion price equal to 200% of the closing price of the Company's Common Shares on the trading day immediately prior to the closing date, subject to potential downward adjustment as provided for in the notes.
