Announcement of Potential Business Combination

On December 6, 2024, the Company announced that it had entered into a non-binding Heads of Agreement with Ybyra Capital (B3: YBRA4), an emerging holding company focused in commodities and real estate development in South America. The merger, as contemplated in the Heads of Agreement and approved in principle by Ybyra Capital’s shareholders on 5 December 2024, sets forth a strategic framework expected to position SMX to leverage synergies and expand into untapped high-growth markets.

The key highlights of the Heads of Agreement include:

The merger is expected to allow the harnessing of SMX’s expertise known as “material efficiency” and “equilibrium effect” in marking, tracking, and certifying the authenticity and provenance of products such as coffee, tea, metals, palm oil, and natural rubber. These capabilities will integrate with Ybyra’s logistics and commodity infrastructure—including fertilizer facilities—expected to enable rapid scaling of SMX’s traceability solutions across South America and Asia.

SMX’s scalable technology, after deployment across Ybyra’s logistics network, is expected to be then expanded into operations across South America and Asia. The combined entity further intends to set new standards in sustainable and ethical certification for commodities traded between South America and the United States, targeting evolving market demands and global sustainability goals in those regions.

SMX and Ybyra expect that the combined company will capitalize on the accelerating trade between South America and Asia, driven by rising demand for natural resources and the need for solutions that provide real-time information related to product sourcing, transparency, and regard to sustainable supply chain trade. SMX also expects that by combining its innovative blockchain technology with Ybyra’s strategic assets and logistical expertise, the emerging entity will provide a scalable infrastructure that facilitates efficient, accountable, and transparent global trade. This platform is expected to enhance shareholder value by monetizing demand inherent to a multi-trillion-dollar global trade market.

The non-binding Heads of Agreement provides a roadmap, including the need for further due diligence, regulatory and shareholder approvals, and drafting of definitive merger documents. The parties cannot at this time give any assurance that definitive documents will be executed or delivered, that both companies will satisfy all expected closing conditions, including stockholder approvals, or that the transaction will ever be consummated.
