Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Current Report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates” and similar expressions or variations of such words are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based upon management’s current expectations, beliefs and projections, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain. Such expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that, while considered reasonable are inherently uncertain. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties. There can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs and projections will be achieved, and actual results may differ materially from what is expressed in or indicated by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. These and other important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this Current Report. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to, various factors beyond management’s control including general economic conditions; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Buyer, Seller or The Company following the announcement of the term sheet; the inability to complete the term sheet; the risk that the acquisition will disrupts current plans and operations as a result of the announcement and consummation of the acquisition; the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the acquisition, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain key employees; costs related to the acquisition; the possibility that The Company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors and other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time. Any such forward-looking statements represent management’s estimates as of the date of this Current Report. While the Company may elect to update such forward-looking statements at some point in the future, unless required by law, it disclaims any obligation to do so, even if subsequent events cause its views to change. Thus, no one should assume that the Company’s silence over time means that actual events are bearing out as expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report. More detailed information about the Company and the risk factors that may affect the realization of forward-looking statements is set forth in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Investors and security holders are urged to read these documents free of charge on the SEC’s web site at http://www.sec.gov.

Exhibit 99.1

 

 

QIND Signs Binding Term Sheet with Nasdaq Listed Actelis Networks (NASDAQ: ASNS).

 

Quality Industrial Corp. (OTC PINK: QIND) (“QIND” or “Company”) is a manufacturer and service provider for the industrial, oil & gas, and utility sectors. The company has signed a binding term sheet with Actelis Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: ASNS) (“Actelis”) for Actelis to acquire 61% to 75% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company, subject to customary terms for closing.

 

Actelis Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: ASNS) is a market leader in cyber-hardened, rapid-deployment networking solutions for wide-area IoT applications including federal, state and local government, ITS, military, utility, rail, telecom and campus applications. Actelis’ unique portfolio of hybrid fiber, environmentally hardened aggregation switches, high-density Ethernet devices, advanced management software and cyber-protection capabilities, unlocks the hidden value of essential networks, delivering safer connectivity for rapid, cost-effective deployment.

 

John-Paul Backwell, CEO of QIND, stated, “Teaming up with Actelis opens up new opportunities for the expansion of our company. Harnessing the advanced technologies and smart-grid solutions that Actelis already provides to its energy, gas and utilities customers in Europe and the USA, can significantly increase our business efficiencies. The acquisition by Actelis also provides us with a strong foundation for future planned acquisitions.”

 

Further synergies with Actelis are being explored with QIND’s sister company, Emergency Response Technologies Inc. (ERT), which is not part of this transaction. ERT designs, manufactures, and supplies patented firefighting technologies and various solutions for the public safety sector.

 

QIND’s operating business reported $11 million in revenue and $1.8 million in net income in 2023. For the first quarter ending March 31, 2024, QIND’s revenues were approximately $3.1 million, and its net income was approximately $0.76 million. The company is projecting substantial growth in 2024. QIND currently services nearly 40,000 customers across the UAE with 7 operating facilities, dozens of vehicles, and approximately 100 employees. The company is internationally certified, local government approved, and services customers such as Emirates Airlines, Emaar, Government of Dubai, Dubai Properties, WASL Group, and many others.

 

QIND currently operates a manually intensive operation and requires the reliable networking and smart applications provided by Actelis to deliver remote monitoring, automated delivery and billing, as well as real-time forecasting and supply chain optimization. The company believes that Actelis’ technology is integral to its reduction of operational costs and ability to win new contracts.

 

Tuvia Barlev, Chairman and CEO of Actelis, stated, “We are excited to team up with QIND as it opens new geographies for us in the Middle East and Africa with applications in new, critical verticals such as energy, utilities, and public safety.

 

Terms of the Transaction

 

At the Closing, in consideration for the purchased shares, Actelis will issue to the Sellers 19.99% of its common stock and preferred non-voting shares for the balance of the consideration. The companies are planning to close the transaction, pending regulatory requirements and due diligence, within 60 days. The preferred shares shall not be convertible to common stock before six months after the closing or until a registration statement is effective, whichever occurs sooner. The exact number of shares of the Company to be issued to the sellers will be based on a ratio of valuations of ASNS and QIND to be determined between the parties before closing.

 

The binding term sheet is subject to customary due diligence requirements and other covenants including but not limited to the raising of additional funding.

 

The Term Sheet includes a 60-day non-solicitation obligation and a break-up fee.
