VANCOUVER, BC – April 15, 2026 – TheNewswire - Aether Global Innovations Corp. (CSE: AETH) (OTC: AETHF) (Frankfurt: 4XA) (WKN# A2N8RH) (“Aether” or the “Company”) is providing this bi-weekly default status report in accordance with the alternative information guidelines set out in National Policy 12-203 – Management Cease Trade Orders ("NP 12-203").

 

As previously announced on April 1, 2026, the Company was unable to file its audited annual financial statements, management's discussion and analysis and related Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer certificates for the year ended November 30, 2025 (collectively, the "Annual Financial Filings") by the required filing deadline of March 30, 2026. The Annual Financial Filings were not filed by the deadline due to financial difficulties and unforeseen internal delays in the completion of the Company's audit.

 

The applicable securities regulatory authorities granted a management cease trade order (the "MCTO") against Rick Unrau, Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer of the Company, precluding him from trading securities of the Company until the Annual Financial Filings are filed.

 

The Company reports that the audit is ongoing and the Company continues to work diligently with its auditors toward completing the Annual Financial Filings. The Company continues to expect to file the Annual Financial Filings on or before April 30, 2026.

 

The Company intends to continue satisfying the provisions of the alternative information guidelines under NP 12-203, including the issuance of bi-weekly default status reports in the form of news releases, for as long as it remains in default of its filing obligations.

 

Other than as disclosed in this news release, the Company also confirms that, at the date hereof, there are no insolvency proceedings against it and no other material information concerning the affairs of the Company that has not been generally disclosed as of the date of this press release.
