San Diego, California, Oct. 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HUMBL, Inc. (OTC: HMBL) (“HUMBL” or the “Company”) announced today a significant financial development in collaboration with its funding partner, Pacific Lion, LLC. Since October 1, 2023, Pacific Lion has taken strategic steps to acquire additional legacy debt, totaling over $3 million, previously held by five different lenders. This accomplishment builds upon Pacific Lion's separate commitment to provide $2,040,000 in funding to HUMBL over the next six months.

Recognizing the strategic advantage of having most of its debt held by a consolidated creditor, who is also a long-term investor in the company, HUMBL has deepened its financial relationship with Pacific Lion; as well as introduced a newly designated class of Series C preferred shares. This innovative class of Series C shares is designed to prevent conversion to equity until an uplisting to a national securities exchange like the NYSE occurs. If HUMBL remains listed on the OTC Markets, the Series C shares will remain non-convertible into common shares for a period of two years. In the event of an uplisting, the Series C will be eligible for conversion at a 25% discount to the market price on the date of the listing to a national exchange, along with leak-out provisions.

"The commitment of over $5 million from Pacific Lion in October alone, through the purchase of both Series C preferred stock, and further debt consolidation, is another key milestone for our relationship with HUMBL,” said Jacob Fernane, Managing Partner of Pacific Lion. “This underscores our trust in the HUMBL management team and our belief in the value of the Company's products and business model. We are bullish about HUMBL's future and are proud to be its core funding partner."

"The consolidation of debt by Pacific Lion helps further strategically position HUMBL’s balance sheet for our next steps. We believe that continued debt retirement and consolidation will not only enhance shareholder value, but also advance the Company towards its future growth objectives,” said Brian Foote, CEO of HUMBL.

HUMBL has retired over $22,000,000 in debt since the beginning of the calendar year.
