Quality of Earnings Report Provided to Prospective Lenders
JUPITER, FL / ACCESSWIRE / October 22, 2021 / Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc. (OTCQB:TLSS), ("TLSS", or the "Company"), a growing eCommerce fulfillment service provider, today announced an update on the status of that certain Stock Purchase and Sale Agreement entered into on June 15, 2021 ("SPA") with SalSon Logistics, Inc.
The parties are in the process of negotiating an extension to the due diligence and financing periods pursuant to the SPA, as a quality of earnings report ("Q of E") for the period ending June 30, 2021, was completed and disseminated to prospective financing sources on October 19, 2021. A Q of E provides a more detailed analysis of a company's revenue and expenses, such as whether earnings generate an equal or greater amount of cash and the extent to which they are recurring or one-time, and is usually a necessary requirement for potential lenders to evaluate a potential financing transaction. The Company has engaged its outside accounting professionals to undertake an addendum to such Q of E through the end of August 31, 2021, to update such report through the most current period for which financial results of operations are available. The Company expects such addendum to be completed over the next few weeks.
There can be no assurances that financing for the cash portion of the purchase price will be obtained or that a transaction with SalSon Logistics, Inc. will be closed.
