![]() | |||||||||
Vancouver, British Columbia –TheNewswire – March 27, 2026 - Femto Technologies Inc. (OTCID: FMTOF) (“Femto” or the “Company”), a FemTech and CRM software company, is pleased to announce that it has today entered into a share purchase agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with Gilad R.G. Planning and Implementation of Technologies and Software 2025 Ltd. (“Gilad”) and its shareholder (the “Vendor”), to acquire an equity interest in Gilad (the “Acquisition”) in order to strengthen the field of software services provided by Femto through its subsidiary, BYND – Beyond Solutions Ltd., and in order to remain relevant in light of the significant changes that the software field is undergoing due to the prevalence of artificial intelligence engines.
Gilad is an Israeli software company focused on the development and sales of advanced, AI-driven research and data analysis solutions with a strategic emphasis on building scalable, software-as-a-service platforms designed for global deployment. Its flagship product, i-RAT (Interactive Researcher Assistant Tool) (the “Product”), is an AI-powered SaaS platform designed to guide users across the full lifecycle of quantitative research, integrating statistical learning, hypothesis formulation, data analysis, and automated results reporting into a single, coherent environment. The co-developer of the Product will, at Closing, hold a royalty interest of 10% of net profits received from sales of the Product.
Pursuant to the Acquisition, Femto will acquire:
-
from Gilad, 43 previously unissued common shares of Gilad (the Gilad Shares”) for a total purchase price of US$1,000,000 which will be used to complete development and sales in accordance with a budget to be approved by the parties (the Treasury Shares Purchase Price”), to be paid in four equal quarterly instalments of US$250,000; and
-
from the Vendor, 14 Gilad Shares in consideration for:
-
a.the payment to the Vendor of the sum of US$250,000; and
-
b.the issuance to the Vendor of 169,811 subordinate voting shares in the capital of Femto (the Subordinate Voting Shares”) at deemed price of US$0.589 per Subordinate Voting Share (the “Payment Shares”), being the volume weighted daily average market price of the Subordinate Voting Shares for the 30 trading days preceding the date of the Share Purchase Agreement.
Upon closing of the Acquisition (the “Closing”), Femto will hold 40% of the issued and outstanding Gilad Shares.
Prior to the investment by Femto, Gilad holds cash of about US$200,000.
If Gilad achieves, within 24 months following the Closing, revenues of at least US$4,200,000 from bona fide sales of the Product to parties at arm’s length to Gilad and the Vendor, Femto will make an additional payment to Gilad in the amount of US$1,680,000.
Femto has the option (the “Option”), exercisable at any time during the 24 months after the Closing, to acquire such additional number of Gilad Shares from the Vendor (the “Option Shares”) as will result in Femto holding, in aggregate, 51% of the issued and outstanding Gilad Shares immediately following such acquisition. The purchase price for the Option Shares will be an amount equal to the fair market value of the Gilad Shares on a pre-transaction basis as at the date of exercise of the Option, as determined by an independent valuator.
Femto is entitled to nominate one individual for election or appointment to Gilad’s board of directors following the Closing and a second individual if the Option is exercised.
Completion of the Acquisition, which is subject to customary closing conditions, is expected to occur before the end of this month. Following the Closing, Femto will pay to the Vendor reimbursement for expenses incurred by the Vendor in relation to the Acquisition.
The Acquisition is not a “related party transaction” as defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions; however, because the Vendor is a relative of Yftah Ben Yaackov, a director and executive officer of Femto, the board of directors of Femto (the “Board”), with Mr. Ben Yaackov abstaining, formed a special committee (the “Special Committee”) to review, consider, evaluate and oversee the negotiation of the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement and make a recommendation to the Board with respect to the Acquisition. Upon completion of its evaluation, it was the recommendation of the Special Committee that the Board approve the Share Purchase Agreement.
