DevvStream Holdings Inc. (CBOE: DESG) (OTCQB: DSTRF) (FSE: CQ0) ("DevvStream" or the "Company"), a leading carbon credit project co-development and generation firm specializing in technology-based solutions, today announced an agreement (the "Agreement") to purchase 1.2 million carbon credits from the Ipixuna REDD+ Project (the "Project"), subject to final approval by the board of Focus Impact Acquisition Corp. ("Focus Impact"). In exchange for the credits, the vendor will receive newly authorized shares of common stock of the public company ("NewCo") resulting from DevvStream's previously announced business combination with Focus Impact (the "Business Combination"). Upon closing of the Business Combination-projected to occur on or before October 31, 2024-NewCo is expected to be named DevvStream Corp. and begin trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") under the ticker symbol "DEVS." The Company expects the carbon credit purchase Agreement to close in conjunction with and conditional upon the Business Combination and Nasdaq listing.
The Project is located in the Ipixuna Indigenous Territory of Brazil and is designed to enhance environmental conservation efforts, reduce GHG emissions caused by deforestation, and promote decent living conditions in the local villages inhabited by the indigenous Parintintin tribe. The Parintintin people own, manage, and document all Project activities.
Key Highlights of the Project:
"Protecting rainforest land in the Amazon is vital to our planet's health," said Sunny Trinh, CEO of DevvStream. "By purchasing these certified credits, DevvStream is contributing to global carbon storage efforts, supporting the wellbeing of the Parintintin people, and affirming the Company's commitment toward-and unwavering belief in-the global carbon credit market as a whole. As DevvStream moves toward a Nasdaq listing, we will continue to leverage our unprecedented position as the first and only carbon company listed on a major U.S. stock exchange to fundamentally reshape carbon markets for the better, bringing trust, transparency, and integrity to an industry that is poised and ready for change."
