Arvana Inc. to Acquire Florida Based Fishing Charter Business

ARVANA ANNOUNCES THE EXECUTION OF A BUSINESS PURCHASE AGREEMENT TO ACQUIRE DOWN 2 FISH CHARTERS, LLC

SALT LAKE CITY, UT / ACCESSWIRE / November 16, 2022 / Arvana Inc. ("OTC:AVNI") announced today that it has entered into a Business Purchase Agreement ("Agreement") to acquire Down 2 Fish Charters, LLC ("Down2Fish") a fishing charter business from LCF Salons, LLC ("LCF") in an all cash transaction comprised of an initial payment at closing and the issuance of a promissory note due in two years.

Down2Fish operates a licensed fishing charter business that offers a range of curated maritime adventures that include inshore, offshore, and custom charters for fishing enthusiasts, nature lovers, snorkeling devotees, and dive masters. The business is operated from a private dock in Palmetto, Florida that services the Tampa area including St Petersburg, Venice, Sarasota, and Clearwater. Down2Fish generates most of its revenue from the sale and provision of charter boat services from two well equipped modern vessels.

Ruairidh Campbell, AVNI's chief executive officer, stated "I am excited at the chance to participate in growing the Down2Fish brand to expand service beyond the Tampa Bay area to the rest of the Gulf coast, and to add new tours to current offerings. Even though the fish charter business is competitive in Florida, the fragmented composition of the competition makes this an ideal opportunity to bring organization and resources to bear to increase market share".

The Agreement will cause Arvana to acquire Down2Fish as a wholly owned subsidiary in exchange for $50,000, and a promissory note for $700,000 payable 24 months after the closing date that bears interest of 7¼ % per annum. Further, the Agreement contains those representations, warranties, and covenants of Arvana, LCF and Down2Fish that are customary in scope for a transaction of this nature, which include the satisfactory completion of due diligence and the compilation of financial statements for Down2Fish prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
