AAAA Auralite Investments Inc

In December, Auralite welcomed two new board members, Terry Thompson and Jason Morton.

Mr. Terry Thompson is a Bachelor of Commerce graduate from the University of British Columbia in 1976 and has over 25 years of senior management experience. His last position was Executive VP and General Manager of 4Refuel Canada Ltd where he helped lead a company from shortly after its start up in 1995 to the leading provider of on-site and on-line diesel fuel management services in Canada with annual sales in excess of $200 million. During Mr. Thompson’s tenure 4Refuel was named Canada’s 7th best company to work for in a national survey and one of Canada’s 50 Best Managed Companies in 2010. In 2010, at the age of 56, Mr. Thompson sold his interest in 4Refuel to a private equity group and is now a private investor and volunteer business advisor to a number of small business CEOs and senior executives.

Mr. Jason Morton has nearly ten years of investment analysis and portfolio management experience. During his investment career at Wellington Management Company, one of the largest institutional investment managers globally, he served as a financial technology analyst before moving on to assist in managing the broader technology-oriented sleeves for various in-house hedge funds. Mr. Morton also helped launch Wellington's first and only pre-IPO fund, focused on late-stage private emerging technology companies, for which he was named head portfolio coordinator. Upon leaving Wellington in 2015, Mr. Morton pursued entrepreneurship and became an investor/operator in a nanotechnology company, Nano Global Corporation, based in Austin, TX. He has served as Head of Corporate Development & Corporate Finance during his tenure. Recently, he was chosen for the role of President in a major internet of things (IoT)-centered joint venture involving Nano Global and one of the world's largest semiconductor companies.

Mr. Thompson also assumed the role of Chief Financial Officer of Auralite, following Hani Zabaneh's retirement from both his director and CFO positions which Mr. Zabaneh had held since the Company's inception.

Robert Meister, President and CEO of Auralite commented: “the Company and directors thank Hani for his contributions and wish him the best in all his future endeavors.”

Robert Meister went on to state: “We are also delighted to welcome Terry and Jason to the Auralite team. We are fortunate to have Terry as our new CFO and look forward to sharing in his extensive experience. Jason is an accomplished technology-focused fund manager and will be of great value to the Auralite team.”

The Company is also pleased to provide an update on its four-for-one forward stock split which became effective in early January. Following completion of the forward split, the Company's common shares have experienced increased trading volume, providing improved liquidity to all shareholders.

Going forward, Auralite is looking to invest in revolutionary and disruptive technologies in the following six key verticals: 

• Environmental Technology
• Artificial Intelligence (AI)
• Internet of Things (IoT) & Blockchain
• Fintech
• BioTech, BioPharma, and Cannabis Tech
• Quantum Technology
