ZYUS Life Sciences Corporation closed the second tranche of a non-brokered private placement, issuing 111,110 units at C$0.45 each for C$50,000 in gross proceeds. Newswire published the announcement on November 6, 2026.

How the ZYUS Unit Offering Is Structured

The offering covers up to 6,666,666 units for aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$3,000,000. Each unit consists of one common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant exercisable at C$0.59 for twenty-four months from issuance. The first tranche closed on October 21, 2026, and the two tranches together raised approximately $0.25 million. ZYUS said it expects to close an additional tranche shortly and will use the proceeds for general corporate and working capital purposes.

Certain insiders of ZYUS purchased all of the 111,110 units sold in the second tranche. The company described the insider participation as a related party transaction under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 and said it relied on exemptions from formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements because it is not listed on a stock exchange specified in section 5.5(b) and neither the fair market value of the securities issued to insiders nor the consideration paid exceeds $2.2 million. The directors approved the offering unanimously. No finders' fees were paid in connection with the second tranche, and the securities carry a hold period expiring March 7, 2027.
