VANCOUVER, BC and TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / November 29, 2019 / Eviana Health Corporation (CSE:EHC) (the "Company") announces a further delay in the filing of its annual audited financial statements, management's discussion and analysis and related certifications for the financial year ended June 30, 2019 (the "Annual Filings").
A failure-to-file cease trade order (the "CTO") was issued by the securities regulators as of November 1, 2019 as a result of the previously announced delay in filing the Annual Filings. As previously announced, the Company made an application to the British Columbia Securities Commission (the "BCSC"), as principal regulator of the Company, for a management cease trade order ("MCTO") under National Policy 12-203 Management Cease Trade Orders in respect of the default regarding the Annual Filings. An MCTO would have resulted in only certain senior officers and directors being unable to trade in the Company's securities. However, securities regulators will only exercise their discretion to grant such an order in rare circumstances when it is requested within two weeks of a filing deadline and when certain eligibility criteria are met. The BCSC chose not to exercise such discretion in this case and accordingly all trading in the Company's securities was ordered ceased, subject to certain limited exceptions for trades outside of Canada.
Due to a number of transactions requiring additional review, the Company's audit remains ongoing at this time. The Company regrets this unnecessary delay in filing and the inconvenience to shareholders and intends to work closely with its auditor in order to file the Annual Filings as soon as possible. The Company anticipates filing its interim financial statements, management's discussion and analysis and related officer certifications for the financial period ended September 30, 2019 shortly after the Annual Filings have been filed.
