Pursuant to the transaction, Edgemont agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Laiva, which will constitute a reverse takeover transaction of Edgemont. The company looks forward to continuing to work with Laiva and the Canadian Securities Exchange to complete the transaction in the near future.
