StreaksAI PLC
("StreaksAI" or "the Company")
Change of Board Composition & Issue of Equity and Warrants
StreaksAI (LSE: STK), a UK-based provider of AI-focused conversational gaming "Streaks Gaming" and the newly announced Social AI platform for influencers "Streaks Social", is delighted to announce the appointment of Philip Blows as Chief Executive Officer with immediate effect.
Phil has been Executive Director of StreaksAI since 20 February 2023. With the impending launch of StreaksAI's social AI platform for influencers, Streaks Social, the Company will benefit greatly from Phil's experience in building and scaling multiple retail-focused platforms, including his previous positions as CEO of AQRU PLC, which owned and operated a cryptocurrency retail trading application, and as Director of Wealth Wizards, a UK-based robo-advice platform.
Mark Rutledge, who has been Chief Executive Officer throughout the IPO period and the launch of StreaksAI, will become Non-Executive Director of StreaksAI with immediate effect. The Board of Directors would like to thank Mark for all his efforts as Chief Executive of the Company and for providing a solid operating platform on which to build.
Issue of Equity
StreaksAI also announces the issue of 420,000 Ordinary Shares of £0.001 per share ("Ordinary Shares") (the "Fee Shares") in respect of the commission due to Tennyson Securities in relation to services rendered to the Company. The Fee Shares have been issued at an issue price equivalent to £0.03 per Share. The Fee Shares rank pari passu with existing shares in issue.
Issue of Warrants
The Company has also granted Tennyson Securities 420,000 warrants to subscribe for new Ordinary Shares ("Warrants") pursuant to the engagement letter with Tennyson Securities. The Warrants have a strike price of £0.03 and expire on 4 January 2028.
Admission
Application will be made to the Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") for admission of the Fee Shares to the standard listing segment of the Official List and to the London Stock Exchange (the "LSE") for admission to trading of the Fee Shares on the LSE's Main Market for listed securities (together "Admission"). It is expected that Admission will take place at or around 8.00 a.m. on 1 September 2023.
Following Admission, the Company's issued share capital will consist of 378,732,535 Ordinary Shares with voting rights. The Company does not currently hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury.
This figure, 378,732,535, may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the DTR.
Philip Blows, Chief Executive Officer of StreaksAI, commented: "I'm delighted to be appointed as CEO at such an exciting point in the Company's development, following the launch of our groundbreaking Streaks Socials product. Artificial intelligence is revolutionising communication, and StreaksAI is allowing influencers to communicate in their distinctive styles with their fans, whilst simultaneously providing fans with personalised interactions. I am looking forward to building a strong business for our customers and delivering long-term value for our shareholders, as we work to redefine the frontiers of AI in the social and gaming domains."
