Verses AI Inc. has arranged a private placement with certain institutional investors.

Under the terms of the private placement, Verses will receive a notional amount of $14-million in exchange for 2,333,334 units at a price of $6 per unit, with each unit consisting of one common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant will be exercisable at a price of $7.

The company expects to close the agreement in one or more tranches. Closing of the private placement remains subject to approval of Cboe Canada Inc. The company will provide further details of the private placement at the time of closing.

Verses has also initiated a work force reduction program designed to strengthen liquidity, streamline operations, reduce costs and increase operational efficiency across the organization. The program includes a combination of targeted reductions in force, furloughs and executive salary deferrals, all aimed at strengthening the company's liquidity position and aligning expenses with revenue growth objectives.

The combined effect of the financing and work force reduction will significantly reduce the company's cost structure, extend its cash runway and enhance the focus on the commercialization of its flagship product, Genius. Together, these actions are intended to position Verses to accelerate its path to profitability and scalable long-term value creation.
