  • Announced that it has successfully tested the process whereby the its Chinese operating subsidiaries will periodically send funds back to Canada once the Company becomes profitable and deems it appropriate for its subsidiaries to do so.
  • “Today’s announcement has been several years in the making,” commented Peak CEO Johnson Joseph. “We’ve been following our advisors’ advice from day one and were always confident that the process would work as described.

Montreal, Quebec–(February 10, 2021) – Peak Fintech Group Inc. (CSE: PKK) (OTCQX: PKKFF) (“Peak” or the “Company”), an innovative Fintech service provider to the Chinese commercial lending sector, today announced that it has successfully tested the process whereby the its Chinese operating subsidiaries will periodically send funds back to Canada once the Company becomes profitable and deems it appropriate for its subsidiaries to do so.

Long before establishing its operating subsidiaries in China, Peak worked with business consultants, tax experts, legal and financial advisors specialized in helping foreign entities do business in China. Together they helped Peak create and put in place a corporate structure and file the necessary paperwork so that Peak’s subsidiaries could eventually follow a government-established process to send funds to the Company’s Canadian head office. Part of the exercise required a disclosure process with various government departments at the time of registration and creation of each subsidiary, and the continuous maintenance in good standing of prescribed regulations, all of which led to the first successful transfer of funds from Peak’s Asia Synergy Data Solutions subsidiary to the Company.

“Today’s announcement has been several years in the making,” commented Peak CEO Johnson Joseph. “We’ve been following our advisors’ advice from day one and were always confident that the process would work as described. But until recently we weren’t in a position to test it or had real grounds to do so. However, given the path that the Company is currently on and the possibility of repatriating funds from China at some point in 2021, we felt it was important for us to test the process to ensure that it actually works. We have now validated that we have a clear path and process, endorsed and prescribed by the Chinese government authorities, for our subsidiaries to send funds from China to Canada. We’re also very pleased with the amount we were able to transfer and how quickly the transaction was completed.”

VIDEO – PyroGenesis $PYR.ca Goes Live For Q&A With Shareholders As Market Cap Surpasses $1 BILLION

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 6:02 PM on Tuesday, February 9th, 2021

To say that PyroGenesis Canada (PYR:TSX) and its CEO, Peter Pascali, share a mutual love and respect with shareholders unlike anything we have ever seen is not an overstatement.  

This is a group (Company, CEO and Shareholders) that have been through the highs and lows of PyroGenesis over the years TOGETHER.  That bond only got tighter when Pascali took to the PYR Verified Forum on AGORACOM to speak with investors directly and openly with his first ever post on June 21, 2017 followed by more than 20 in-depth videos in which he took his engagement with investors even deeper by answering every single question possible to the best of his ability.  

Knowing this, it should not surprise anybody learning about PyroGenesis for the first time that shareholders have coined the rallying call of “In Peter We Trust”.  

Today PyroGenesis, Pascali and shareholders shared another major milestone together in a live Q&A that coincided with PyroGenesis surpassing a $1 BILLION MARKET CAP.  It was an incredibly special event that could not be made clearer than by many of the questions and comments that referred not just to the Company’s bottom – but to its soul and philosophy.    

I’ve never seen it before.  All I can say is that it is a thrill to be witness to and part of something this deeply special in an industry that rarely looks beyond the next quarter.  

Congratulations to Peter, the Pyro team and this incredible group of shareholders.  

George and the AGORACOM team.  

Watch, listen and enjoy today’s interview with CEO Peter Pascali.
