FuelPositive Provides Update on Filing of Annual Financial Statements and Cease Trade Order

Published

on

TORONTO, Feb. 4, 2025 /CNW/ – FuelPositive Corporation (TSXV: NHHH) (OTCQB: NHHHF) (“FuelPositive” or the “Company”) provides an update on its financial reporting and regulatory status. The Company is actively working with its auditors to complete the required annual financial statements and accompanying management’s discussion and analysis for the fiscal year of September 30, 2024.

The filing deadline of January 28, 2025, was not met due to the restructuring of FuelPositive’s financial team and Board of Directors, which required additional time to transition financial reporting responsibilities and associated analysis. Additionally, unforeseen delays from a third-party accounting firm, engaged before the restructuring to assist the auditors, further extended the timeline. While this caused a temporary delay, it does not reflect any operational concerns—FuelPositive remains fully operational and focused on its core business objectives.

As a result of the missed deadline, the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) issued a Cease Trade Order (CTO) on February 3, 2025. However, FuelPositive’s auditors expect to finalize the audit and the Company will submit the necessary filings on or before February 21, 2025. The Company is committed to working closely with regulatory authorities, including the OSC and TSX Venture Exchange, to have the CTO lifted as quickly as possible once the filings are complete.

Despite this administrative delay, FuelPositive remains steadfast in advancing toward commercialization. The Company is making significant progress toward activating its first on-farm Green Ammonia system in Sperling, Manitoba. This milestone will demonstrate the commercial viability and real-world impact of its technology. Regulatory and system readiness are on track, ensuring a smooth transition to this next critical phase.

Additionally, FuelPositive is actively engaged in capital-raising initiatives and discussions with the Government of Manitoba to secure key support for expansion in the province. These efforts aim to accelerate the development and manufacturing of its Green Ammonia technology, create high-value clean economy jobs, and provide farmers with greater resilience and energy independence.

FuelPositive remains dedicated to delivering long-term value to its shareholders and will provide further updates in the coming weeks as the audit process is finalized and the Company moves forward with its strategic milestones.

FuelPositive Corporation

FuelPositive is leading the future of agriculture with the world’s first farmer-owned, on-farm Green Ammonia production systems. The Company’s modular and innovative technology offers a predictable, reliable, and affordable solution for directly producing green fertilizer and fuel on-farm, reducing reliance on external supply chains.

Groundbreaking AgTech and Green Energy:

FuelPositive’s containerized Green Ammonia production systems are transforming the Green Ammonia industry by decentralizing production. This new fertilizer production approach aims to empower farmers to generate green nitrogen fertilizer and carbon-free fuel on-site, ensuring stable costs and supply. Each ton of ammonia produced by FuelPositive systems eliminates up to 2 tons of CO2e emissions, providing an environmentally sustainable solution that is also easily accessible and remotely monitored, enabling farmers to focus on their operations without added complexity.

First System Delivery: A Milestone in Sustainable Agriculture:

In June 2024, FuelPositive delivered its first commercial system, the FP300, to Tracy and Curtis Hiebert’s 11,000-acre grain farm near Sperling, Manitoba. This milestone marks a significant advancement for both FuelPositive and sustainable agriculture. The system activation this fall will further demonstrate the transformative impact of the Company’s technology on farming practices, driving a more sustainable future.

Manitoba: A Global Center of Excellence:

FuelPositive is positioning Manitoba as a leader in decentralized Green Ammonia production. The Company’s vision includes establishing a world-leading manufacturing hub that will generate highly skilled engineering, science, and trade jobs and contribute to the local economy over the coming years.

Can we produce low-cost omega-3s without relying on fish?

Published

on

By

GOLD COAST, Australia, Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Southern Cross University researchers are aiming to halve the cost of producing omega-3 supplements to make these essential nutrients more accessible to pregnant women and infants in low-income countries, backed by the University’s first-ever grant from The Gates Foundation.

The research takes a novel approach: rather than relying on fish oil, the team is going closer to the original source of omega-3. Fish don’t produce omega-3 themselves – they accumulate it from marine microorganisms lower in the food chain.

Led by Professor Dirk Erler from Southern Cross University’s Faculty of Science and Engineering, the team is investigating how these naturally omega-3-producing microorganisms can be grown more cheaply through precision fermentation, including the use of agricultural and food-processing by-products as a source of fermentation sugar.

Omega-3 is an important nutrient during pregnancy and early life, supporting brain and nervous system development in babies. But the cost of supplements remains a significant barrier to access in many low-income countries.

“The main barrier for the uptake of omega-3s as supplements in pregnant women is the cost,” Professor Erler said.

“The whole objective of our project is to reduce that cost and make omega-3 supplements more available.”

The research team at Southern Cross University, which includes biomedical scientist Dr Nedeljka Rosic, Dr Shane McIntosh, postdoctoral researcher Dr Jasmine Haskell and PhD researcher Michael Ingram, is focused on growing omega-3-producing marine microorganisms known as thraustochytrids – or ‘throstys’ for short.

“By growing those microorganisms on land through precision fermentation, we have an alternative way of producing omega-3s that is both reliable and highly targeted,” Professor Erler said.

Precision fermentation allows the researchers to grow thraustochytrids under controlled conditions to produce omega-3 oils. The team is investigating whether expensive feedstocks used in the process can be replaced with lower-cost agricultural and food-processing by-products, helping drive down the overall cost of production.

The approach could also reduce reliance on wild-caught fish as a source of omega-3 oil and create a more reliable, scalable, and local supply.

For biomedical scientist Dr Nedeljka Rosic, the production challenge is ultimately about what greater access to omega-3 could mean for women and babies.

“As a biomedical scientist, my purpose is to find ways to use science to improve people’s health,” Dr Rosic said.

“This project is important because it aims to improve the health of pregnant women and children and reduce preterm births through simple dietary improvements.”
