• Recent industry report suggests that EV battery costs are down nearly 90%
• Analysts predicting that falling EV battery prices will make EVs cost-competitive in several years
• NETE planning to divest its current business model in order to enter EV industry through reverse merger with privately-held Mullen Technologies Inc.
• Mullen currently taking pre-orders for five-passenger MX-05 SUV, Dragonfly K50 sports car

Rapidly falling electric vehicle (“EV”) battery prices are fueling predictions that it will be easier and cheaper to build and market EVs within a few years (https://ibn.fm/MYD7s). In a bold move aiming to leverage these changing market conditions, Net Element (NASDAQ: NETE), a global financial technology and payments processing company, is planning to divest its payments processing model so it can enter the EV industry through a proposed reverse merger with Mullen Technologies, a privately-held California-based EV manufacturer.

The EV industry continues to grow by leaps and bounds, and research suggests that EVs may eventually dominate gas-powered cars in many sectors (https://ibn.fm/dr6cA). While government mandates, policy-initiatives and consumer preferences are pushing demand higher, falling battery prices are expected to make EVs economically feasible on the supply side in the next few years.

The effect of falling battery prices appears to be contributing to industry momentum, fueled by recent surveys that suggest costs have decreased by nearly 90%. Analysts predict that battery costs are likely to continue falling and may reach a point where manufacturers will be able to make and sell mass-market EVs at the same cost as cars that are powered by fossil fuels.

Before most of this news hit the mainstream, NETE took action in early 2020 by announcing plans to divest itself of its current business model in order to enter the EV industry through a reverse merger with privately-held Mullen Technologies. Following the required approvals, the transaction will allow Mullen stakeholders to obtain the majority of stock in the new company while also catalyzing the process of taking the company public.

“We continue working diligently in an effort to finalize the Mullen merger for the benefit of our shareholders,” said Net Element Executive Chairman Oleg Firer (https://ibn.fm/VRO4m).

Through its subsidiary Mullen Energy, Mullen Technologies is currently engaged in innovating its own battery technology in addition to taking pre-orders for its five-passenger MX-05 SUV and Dragonfly K50 sports car. Following the merger, the company is planning to build and lease 1.3 million square feet of assembly and manufacturing space in Washington while expanding its industry footprint through subsidiaries that include Mullen Auto Sales, Mullen Finance Corp., and a digital marketplace called CarHub.

The EV industry continues to make headlines throughout the world as governments continue to mandate carbon-neutral transportation policies. As the industry continues to ramp up in terms of investor interest and stock valuations, NETE’s plan to enter the EV industry appears to be the right decision at precisely the right time.

• British Columbia-based investment holding company Clean Power Capital Corp. is building a focused strategy for helping the hydrogen energy renewables sector to develop at a critical juncture in its history
• Clean Power recently announced its appearance on the Canadian Securities Exchange has been enhanced by listing on two of the CSE’s indices — the CSE Composite Index (R) and the CSE25 (TM) index
• Clean Power Capital is also examining the potential for uplisting to the NASDAQ exchange as part of the company’s strategy for building investment interest in the United States
• The company’s U.S. strategy was bolstered during the past year when it obtained a 90 percent controlling interest in U.S. company PowerTap Hydrogen Fueling, a key part of its renewables portfolio
• PowerTap appointed the CEO founder of leading global renewables company Amp Energy to the company’s advisory board recently to improve that company’s growth strategy

Holding company Clean Power Capital (CSE: MOVE) (FWB: 2K6) (OTC: MOTNF) is receiving increased attention to its mission of shepherding health and renewable energy enterprises toward their growth potential thanks to Clean Power’s entry on two Canadian Securities Exchange indices — the CSE Composite Index (R) and the CSE25 (TM) index. The CSE is an alternative exchange dedicated to micro-cap and emerging companies. Clean Power’s entry on the Composite Index grants it a place of recognition among about 75 percent of the equities on the CSE, particularly those in the Life Sciences sector. The entry on the CSE25 index offers even higher visibility, placing Clean Power among the top 25 companies by market capitalization on the exchange (https://ibn.fm/ax4YR). “It is an honour for the Company to be added to any major index at such an early stage, let alone for it to rank in the top 25 of such an index by market capitalization,” CEO Joel Dumaresq stated as part of the announcement. “Some of North America’s most innovative companies are traded on the CSE, and we are proud to be among leading firms in life sciences, technology, and diversified industries who comprise the CSE Composite Index (R).” Clean Power is examining the possibility of listing common shares on the NASDAQ exchange in the United States to further improve its attractiveness to investors (https://ibn.fm/QMXMG). The establishment of a strategic committee to develop a new capital markets plan focused on the United States demonstrates the company’s determination to move its prospects forward at a pivotal time; the transition of government in the United States to President-elect Joe Biden’s administration signals a new shift toward clean energy policies (https://ibn.fm/7c7QU) such as those promoted by Clean Power through its investments. One key element of Clean Power’s portfolio is its push for an ownership stake in PowerTap Hydrogen Fueling Corp. this year, obtaining 90 percent of the company through the issuance of 106.2 million common shares in Clean Power’s capital to PowerTap’s shareholders under an 18-month escrow release program (https://ibn.fm/g5Bc2). Clean Power believes hydrogen-fueled vehicles have significant advantages over battery electric, gas and diesel vehicles when it comes to their driving range, fueling time and cost per mile, and that hydrogen is due for wider scale public adoption. The company’s acquisition announcement cites industry reports predicting hydrogen will be a $130 billion industry by 2030 in the United States supporting 700,000 jobs. PowerTap reported a new development Dec. 30 when it named the CEO founder of leading global renewables company Amp Energy, Dave Rogers, to PowerTap’s advisory board (https://ibn.fm/5e4o6). “The global energy transition is in full swing and hydrogen will play a critical role in the future as we move away from fossil-based generation and transportation,” Rogers stated as part of the announcement. “The proprietary PowerTap technology provides critical and unique advantages over the rest of the field, which is why I’m particularity excited about helping the company grow rapidly over the coming years.” PowerTap’s proprietary tech strategy consists of using its onsite steam methane reforming (SMR) hydrogen production and dispensing modular units to build a strong network of hydrogen fueling stations throughout California before phased expansion across the United States. The IP’s modular design allows the station technology to be mass produced, to be easily upgraded with new tech developments, and to be relocated as circumstances require.

• JOSE’s Josemaria Copper-Gold Project makes list of possible acquisitions as Barrick Gold eyes expansion into copper space
• Barrick CEO calls copper “fantastic asset and very strategic”
• Article notes that JOSE property has proven probable reserves of 6.7 billion lbs. of copper, 7 million ounces of gold, 30 million ounces of silver

Josemaria Resources (TSX: JOSE) (OTCQB: JOSMF), a natural resources company that is offering an advanced-stage copper-gold deposit project located in Argentina, is on a short list of potential acquisitions Barrick Gold may be looking at, according to a “Dear Retail” article (https://ibn.fm/brYUr). The article notes that Barrick currently owns a copper mine in Zambia as well as interests in two additional projects, one in Chile and one in Saudi Arabia. However, the company’s copper output is relatively small and certainly “no match for copper giants like BHP, Glencore, Freeport-McMoran and Anglo American.” The article, titled “Why Barrick Gold (NYSE: GOLD) Could Acquire These Copper-Gold Projects,” notes that Barrick Gold president and CEO Mark Bristow, who joined the company in early 2019, sees a tremendous value in copper. “As gold miners, we’re going to have to take on other assets, and copper is a good thing to own,” Bristow said earlier this year (https://ibn.fm/SFEFE). “It’s a fantastic asset and very strategic.” Bristow has spoken openly of his plans to expand the company’s copper business. The “Dear Retail” article reports that “with proven probable reserves of 6.7 billion lbs. of copper, 7 million ounces of gold and 30 million ounces of silver, Josemaria is a large-scale, undeveloped deposit in Argentina’s pro-mining San Juan province that is expected to begin commercial production in 2026. Barrick has history with both San Juan and the Lundin Group – Josemaria is not far from the Lundin Group’s previous discovery, the Veladero gold deposit, which was acquired by Homestake Mining after the Lundins fought off a hostile bid by Barrick, who later bought Homestake in order to gain ownership of Veladaro.” Josemaria recently presented at the Metals & Mining Live Virtual Investor Conference, where company leaders provided an update of its wholly owned Josemaria copper-gold mining project, the Josemaria Copper-Gold Project. Based on a company feasibility report (https://ibn.fm/QdrkS). the Argentina-based mine is forecast to generate an average annual production of 136,000 tonnes of copper, 231,000 ounces of gold, and 1,164,000 ounces of silver over its 19-year life span. Bristow’s interest in copper — and potentially Josemaria — certainly makes sense. Forecasts for copper production at the Josemaria mine are equal to almost 1% of the annual global supply (https://ibn.fm/o9RH1). This projection makes the mine an attractive target, especially in light of the fact that copper’s electrical and thermal conductivity make it essential to the production of electrical conductors, switches, transformers and wiring. “Analysts have said that in order to compete with this group of companies, the most logical option would be for Barrick to make a major acquisition, and we would wager that Bristow is thinking along the same lines,” the article states. “Barrick is well positioned to make such a strategic acquisition. The strength of gold prices in 2020 has helped it to pay down debt and improve its balance sheet, and in an earnings call with investors in May, Bristow said this year offered a ‘dynamic M&A environment.’ . . . . This industry needs to consolidate, and it needs to consolidate with assets that are related, that are not disparate. . . and copper and gold have a close association.’” Josemaria Resources is a Canadian natural resources company based in Vancouver, British Columbia. The company’s current focus is on advancing the development of its wholly owned Josemaria copper-gold mining project. Josemaria Resources is part of the Lundin Group of companies, a conglomerate of 13 business entities operating in the mining, oil and gas and renewables sectors around the world.

• Acceptance of Xceptol products on RangeMe website new revenue source, increasing SKUs and access to retailers
• RangeMe enables retail buyers to discover innovative, emerging products; empowers suppliers to manage, grow their brands
• CannAssist developed Xceptol brand to offer effective health and wellness solutions without side effects

CannAssist International (OTCQB: CNSC) has announced that its flagship brand — Xceptol — has been approved and included by the distribution website RangeMe (https://ibn.fm/c55wi). Xceptol’s inclusion on the website means increasing SKUs, access to more than 10,000 retailers, and a significant new revenue source for CNSC. “This is exciting news for us on many fronts,” said CannAssist CEO Mark Palumbo. “A process estimated to take weeks was accomplished in a few days — a testament, I feel, to the quality of the Xceptol brand. Also gratifying is being included on the RangeMe website, a significant portal for major retailers to find products for their customers.” RangeMe is an online platform that enables retail buyers to efficiently discover innovative and emerging products while empowering suppliers to manage and grow their brands with the tools, insights, and services they need. In the announcement, CNSC noted that RangeMe had added Xceptol drops and capsules to the Xceptol pain-cream products that are available on the RangeMe platform. The inclusion brings the number of available Xceptol SKUs on RangeMe to 10, with additional SKUs coming in Q1 2021. RangeMe’s broad network creates a significant new revenue source for CannAssist International. CannAssist developed its exclusive Xceptol brand, along with CiBiDinol or water-compatible cannabidiol, with the objective of offering powerful health and wellness solutions without troublesome side effects (https://ibn.fm/cdrAF). Team members had extensive experience and background with science, health care and conventional pharmaceutical therapies and recognized the need for a different approach to treatment of acute and chronic pain. CannAssist experts began exploring ways to solve inherent issues with CBD delivery and bioavailability — CiBiDinol and the Xceptol brand are the result. Xceptol products feature CiBiDinol and offer better absorption than oil-based products currently available. CiBiDinol provides CBD in a format that is more in line with the body’s natural bioactivity and is specifically designed to tackle issues with oil-soluble CBD molecules, such as delivery, bioavailability and short shelf-life. Xceptol products also offer more predictable potency. CNSC’s Xceptol Pain Cream is a CBD product with industry-defining reliability and compliance. Possessing a National Drug Code (“NDC”), the highest quality ingredients and the game-changing CiBiDinol, the pain cream is fast gaining attention in the pain-treatment space and is leading the way for other Xceptol products to follow. CannAssist believes Xceptol represents the next step for CBD products. Established in 2017, CannAssist is headquartered in San Diego County, California, and is the owner of Xceptor Labs, a biotechnological pharmaceutical and wellness company. CannAssist is currently focused on marketing its Xceptol brand, which is why the RangeMe announcement is so significant.

• Digital drives key trends that will shape entertainment industry, according to “Variety” article
• Live streaming, virtual engagement, personal interaction between artists and fans are critical factors
• Fan Pass to thrive as company develops solutions that match trends

Digital technology is proving itself indispensable in both pandemic and post-pandemic environments, according to a recent “Variety” article  (https://ibn.fm/WTNec). That prediction paints the ideal setting for Friendable (OTC: FDBL) and it’s Fan Pass platform to excel in the years to come. According to the article, titled “10 Predictions for Media & Entertainment in 2021,” as the pandemic shuttered physical venues and live events, artists and celebrities who embraced digital technology early to remain connected to their fan base were successful in preserving — and even increasing — their income. However, the article notes that virtual engagement with fans around the world goes beyond live streaming of music to include direct messaging with celebrities and other forms of more personal interaction between fans and artists. The massive yet largely untapped market of fans willing to spend to connect with their favorite celebrities may prove essential even after the pandemic when the world returns to a more physical way of functioning than today. The new generation of solutions that augments rather than replaces the live, real-world performances will be beneficial to artists both as a hedge against future pandemic threats and as a tool to enhance their interactions with fans during more normal times, the article predicts. The article also emphasizes the impact of quarantine on the rapid adoption and wide acceptance of live streaming and other forms of technology-enabled remote engagement and collaboration. Digital technology further enhances this new reality with the development of industry-specific and optimized solutions for virtual creation, collaboration, and production tools, offering new solutions for enhancing virtual engagement. As a mobile technology and marketing company focused on connecting and engaging users through its proprietary mobile and desktop application, Friendable launched Fan Pass to help artists engage with their fans around the world and earn revenue in the pandemic environment that prevented live, in-person events. The platform offers a livestreaming service, allowing music artists to create exclusive channels for offering their content to the fans. Additionally, the Fan Pass team will provide exclusive VIP experiences, interviews and behind-the-scenes content featuring the platform’s favorite artists. Although vaccines make re-opening appear more likely than ever before, certain aspects of the entertainment industry are forever changed as technology found its way into an increasing number of aspects of today’s world. With prolonged uncertainty surrounding the comeback of live performances, Friendable feels that the demand from artists for virtual-stage performances will grow stronger. Fan Pass offers a hybrid model relevant even after the end of the pandemic, as it can continue to build virtual relationships between artists, labels and fan communities worldwide while helping them transition back to in-person performances.

• NASDAQ article reports verticalization, specialization of data and analytics platforms will take on growing importance in coming year
• Sequire platform offers new level of domain expertise, knowledge
• Since its launch, Sequire has gained more than 1 million active investors, traders from 91 public companies

A recent NASDAQ article noting the top 10 data analytics trends for 2021 reported that the verticalization and specialization of data and analytics platforms will take on growing importance in the new year (https://ibn.fm/irU4C). SRAX (NASDAQ: SRAX), a digital marketing and consumer data-management technology company, appears to be ideally positioned to thrive within those expectations. “The need for analytics is well-established, and generic platforms that crunch data and create visualizations have matured,” reported the NASDAQ article, which was titled “What Data Analytics Will Look Like in 2021 — And How to Capitalize On It.” The article continued, noting that “enterprises will now expect a level of domain expertise and knowledge of how data and analytics can support specific use cases, and thus will gravitate towards platforms that can meet their needs more specifically with capabilities such as risk modeling for insurance, or in the case of Signals Analytics, marketing intelligence to support the product life cycles. With 80% of analytics projects failing, this will be one way that companies will be able to buck the trend.” Domain expertise and knowledge is at the core of Sequire, an investor intelligence and communications platform created by SRAX in 2019. Sequire gathers and analyzes data about stock buyers’ behaviors and trends for issuers of publicly traded companies, allowing those issuers to use audience insights to capture the interest of existing investors and attract new ones. Since its launch, Sequire has gained more than 1 million active investors and traders from 91 public companies (https://ibn.fm/eSG5s). Originally called SRAX IR, the data-management platform was renamed Sequire because that name better represents the platform’s main objective of gathering, managing and analyzing data to acquire and secure investors for publicly traded companies (https://ibn.fm/71Mus). Sequire’s intelligent technologies distinguish it from other offerings in the world of data collection and reinforce the company’s focus on innovation and uniqueness in the marketplace (https://ibn.fm/51XDL). SRAX is dedicated to building the largest and most reliable opted-in data sets across many industry verticals; accurately identifying target consumers for brands and companies in the CPG, investor relations, luxury, and lifestyle spaces; and keeping those brands ahead in the competitive curve with high-quality data.

• Players seek user-friendly experience that is easy, convenient.
• Creative approaches utilized to gain new players, retain gamers, and increase daily engagement and wagering volumes

The industry of iGaming, or the playing of or betting on the outcome of a game or event on the internet, is rapidly growing, and Mobius Interactive is strategically positioned to benefit from that growth. Mobius is an online gaming operator that caters to diverse demographic groups through creative brand offerings, onboarding, retention and engagement strategies. According to an article published by Techie Gamers, iGaming is one of the fastest-growing industries on the planet, estimated to be worth approximately $100 billion by 2024 (https://ibn.fm/8k929). iGaming encompasses sports betting, online casino betting, poker betting, online video gaming, virtual horseracing and more.

Trends for this industry show continued growth due to creative software providers and gaming operators. While players seek out a user-friendly experience that is easy and convenient, providers are looking for a way to attract new players while increasing gameplay and retention. As competition in the market increases, savvy companies such as Mobius that are committed to staying ahead of the game are creating customizations with themes, stories and more. Mobius currently has three diverse brand offerings that launched in September 2020. Each caters to a specific audience.

• Aragon Casino’s target market is 21- to 45-year-olds and uses medieval fantasy themes

• Strong growth in US lumber demand has led to both record price increases – and record levels of timber, tree debris along with it
• Sustainable Green Team has sought to introduce environmentally sustainable solution to storm, tree debris removal sector
• Via purchase of Mulch Manufacturing in February 2020, SGTM is now able to process tree biomass it collects into premium mulch products
• SGTM has perfected its vertically integrated business model – retailing environmentally friendly agricultural product while simultaneously getting compensated for collecting necessary raw materials

Lumber demand in the United States has never been higher; according to the National Association of Home Builders (“NAHB”), lumber prices rose by 30 percent between the onset of Hurricane Harvey in August 2017 and January 2018 on the back of strong reconstruction-driven demand (https://ibn.fm/ncKQM). However, recent price trends have put even that rally to shame. Since mid-April 2020, lumber prices have risen by over 130% (https://ibn.fm/5Oh35), with the Covid-19 pandemic driving a virtual exodus of residents from large urban metropolis’ and spurring a wave of new housing starts elsewhere in the country. However, the phenomenon has also led to record levels of timber wastage – leading to a sharp increase in the demand for the Sustainable Green Team (OTC: SGTM), a vertically integrated storm and debris removal company’s services. Sustainable Green Team has historically sought to provide a synergistic and environmentally beneficial solution to tree and storm waste disposal, in a bid to alleviate the environmental burdens which have traditionally afflicted landfills and disposal sites around the country. Accordingly, throughout its 40-year corporate tenure, SGTM has worked to cultivate a reputation as an environmentally responsible enterprise, focused on being “stewards of the environment” across all aspects of their business. A perennial challenge for SGTM and its peer companies within the sector has been to find a sustainable solution for the treatment and handling of tree debris, which has habitually been sent to local landfills and disposal sites. The company sought to address this issue through the purchase of Ohio-based Mulch Manufacturing, a leader in the field of manufacturing mulch used for agricultural and landscaping purposes in February 2020 (https://ibn.fm/A70mT). Following its merger with Mulch Manufacturing, SGTM has been able to move beyond the traditional waste disposal model, rather opting to process the collected tree biomass into a variety of organic, attractive, and next-generation mulch products which are packaged and sold on to retailers, landscapers, installers and garden centers. Sold under the Softscape(R) brand name, Mulch Manufacturing’s mulch and landscaping products allow water and air to penetrate soil and roots, a vital function to promote plant health and growth (https://ibn.fm/F2qid). SGTM has been able to translate its acquisition into ongoing commercial success, recently revealing that its subsidiary, Mulch Manufacturing Inc., had been awarded contracts to supply The Kroger Co. and Alimentation Couch-Tard’s Circle K subsidiary with premium grade organic mulch products over the course of 2021 (https://ibn.fm/SeD5q). In addition to its efforts in recycling tree and storm waste into commercialized mulch products, the Sustainable Green Team has recently gained the International Play Equipment Manufacturers Association (“IPEMA”) certification to commence recycling waste into playground surfacing material. With demand for playground surfacing material rapidly rising as a result of growing demand from the likes of schools, commercial athletic facilities and recreational spaces, SGTM’s new product line is expected to help the company tap into a market which is estimated to rise to a value of over $5.8 billion by the end of 2026, a 150% increase from 2017’s $3.7 billion (https://ibn.fm/OlJEM). As environmental concerns continue to build across the world, the need to find sustainable solutions within the tree and debris management sector has gained increased prominence. Through its vertically integrated structure, SGTM has now managed to achieve the rarest goal of them all – building a sustainable and commercially viable business in an increasingly essential sector of the economy.
