Rhea-AI Summary

PowerBand Solutions (OTCQB:PWWBF) announced significant updates on its corporate strategy focused on the vehicle leasing platform, Drivrz Financial. After a business review, management is prioritizing resources towards Drivrz Financial, expecting high returns for shareholders. The company has faced challenges as its primary financial institution has withheld funding and identified lease contracts falling under repurchase criteria, leading to a total repurchase amount of CAD $4,785,665 in recent quarters. As of Q1 2023, the company self-funded five leases but is currently not originating new ones. To mitigate future risks, PowerBand is implementing operational changes and has filed lawsuits against problematic dealers. The management continues to seek resolutions with financial backers and aims to secure additional funding for Drivrz Financial.
