In every technology innovation, multi-channel has been proven to be superior to single-channel

February 18, 2021 – Ottawa, Canada – Edgewater Wireless Systems Inc. (YFI; TSX.V) (OTCQB: KPIFF), the industry leader in Wi-Fi Spectrum Slicing technology for residential and commercial markets, is pleased to announce the cease trade order (CTO) issued by the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) on October 15, 2020, has been revoked.  Trading in the Company’s shares was suspended by the TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV) due to the CTO, and the Company has applied to the TSXV to have trading reinstated.  Subject to TSXV approval, reinstatement of trading in Edgewater’s shares is anticipated shortly.

The Company would like to thank its shareholders and supporters for their patience during the CTO period.

According to the Wireless Broadband Alliance (WBA), over 13 billion Wi-Fi devices are in use[1] today.  With over 4 billion new products shipped per year[2], the growth and densification continue to increase, and 5G promises to deliver wireless connectivity for countless more devices.  As convergence between Wi-Fi and 5G grows, the efficient use of spectrum underpins the future of wireless communications.

“The current single-channel physical layer approach inadequately caters for this exponential growth in demand. We firmly believe, with evidence, that our patented multi-channel at the physical layer increases capacity for Wi-Fi usage today — and in the future — as it increases exponentially,” Said Andrew Skafel, President and CEO of Edgewater Wireless.  “Particularly with the convergence of Wi-Fi and 5G, we believe Edgewater’s patented Spectrum Slicing approach offers service providers a clear path forward.”

With the CTO lifted, the Company plans to continue to pursue opportunities to grow, expand and monetize its Intellectual Property portfolio and silicon solutions via partnerships and licensing.  As we advance, the Company will continue to explore opportunities to raise the capital necessary to finance ongoing operations and provide future growth.

The private placement announced on July 7, 2020, was withdrawn from the market.
