CAVE CREEK, Az., October 27, 2022 – Investorideas.com Newswire)  Endexx Corporation (OTCBB:EDXC),, a provider of innovative, plant-derived, and sustainable health and skincare products, today announces it has secured three key significant orders for its newly acquired, non-nicotine plant-based vape product, HYLA.  These orders provide a combined $2.3 million revenue in the first two fiscal quarters.

The orders came from distributors in the Western Region in the US, a Central Asian nation and Dubai in the UAE.  The first two will bring a combined approximate revenue of $827,000, with the Dubai order providing another approximately $1,500,000 in revenue during Endexx’s first two fiscal quarters.  The Dubai order extends over six months with potential for accelerated growth.

 

Todd Davis, CEO of Endexx, stated, “HYLA has been an important addition to our product offerings, while maintaining our mission statement of providing innovative, plant-based consumer products to the consumer.  Importantly, this first set of orders puts us on track to recoup the investment made to acquire HYLA by the second quarter of this year, and to significantly increase our overall revenue intake.

 

Nick Mehdi, CEO of the Hyla division stated, “The Dubai, UAE market is very influential in identifying trends, consumer behavior and market expansion in the Mid-East.” Mr. Mehdi added, “HYLA products represent the best alternative to replace Nicotine Based vape products,  both internationally and here in the US.” Mehdi concluded that, “The Dubai transaction opens

the entire market in the region and we anticipate significant growth in distribution.”

 

“Combined with both our CBD pain and men’s skincare products and non-CBD skincare line, we believe we are creating an important niche franchise that will appeal to an increasingly wider audience worldwide.  Our distribution for our Blesswell line includes some of the major retailers in the nation, including Target, CVS and Amazon, and we are confident that the HYLA acquisition – in addition to generating revenue from direct sales – will also provide us additional international access.  We look forward to continuing to update shareholders on our progress,” concluded Mr. Davis.

Vancouver, Kelowna, Delta, BC, October 27, 2022 - Investorideas.com, a global news source and leading investor resource covering cleantech and renewable energy stocks issues a new  edition of the Cleantech and Climate Change Podcast reviewing top news in EV stocks, featuring Electric Vehicle Stock Mullen Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ: MULN).

 

The growth story of the EV market continues in spite of recent concerns expressed by Elon Musk in the Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) earnings call, discussing the economy and market in China. "China is experiencing a recession of sorts.”

 

On Monday Tesla announced price cuts to the Model 3 and Model Y electric cars in China and stocks like NIO Inc. (NYSE: NIO) fell, but the drop was short-lived and the sector is still driving forward with impressive global expansion.

Mullen Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ: MULN), an emerging electric vehicle (“EV”) manufacturer, announced earlier this week it has secured exclusive sales, distribution and branding rights to the new compact urban delivery electric vehicle, the I-GO™, which is fully EU Standard homologated and certified for sale in select European markets.

 

Perfect for urban European markets, the I-GO™ bridges the gap between the growing demand for quick deliveries and space constraints found throughout the dense cities of Europe.

 

There is high demand for ready to market urban delivery vehicles in Europe. The Company has seized the opportunity to extend its branding and marketing reach to the European market through its partnership with the manufacturers of the I-GO™. The Mullen I-GO™, intended for companies focusing on last mile deliveries, is based on a 96-inch wheelbase, 16.5-kWh battery pack, rear-wheel drive, and a curb weight of 1,753 lbs. With a range of 124 miles, according to NEDC estimate, the vehicle can easily handle the stop/go and weave in/out typical of narrow European urban streets. The I-Go was built with the intention to get to the customer's door faster, all while decreasing pollution and congestion levels across Europe. The I-GO™ will have a starting price of $11,999 plus VAT and local transportation and will be retailed and serviced through local European distributors.

 

The I-GO™ will join Mullen’s current commercial vehicle lineup which includes Class 1 and 2 EV cargo vans. Mullen recently made a majority acquisition of Bollinger Motors, whose portfolio includes Class 3 through Class 6 commercial vehicles. In addition to securing the exclusive sales, distribution and branding rights for the I-GO™ for Spain, France, Germany, UK and Ireland, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement to acquire all assets of Electric Last Mile Solutions, Inc. and Electric Last Mile, Inc. (“ELMS”) from the ELMS Bankruptcy Estates.

 

General Motors Co. (NYSE: GM) reported third-quarter results this week. In the GM Chair and CEO Mary Barra's letter to shareholders, she reported, “We earned more than 8% of the U.S. electric vehicle market in the third quarter thanks to record sales of the Chevrolet Bolt EV and Bolt EUV. Our dealers and customers have embraced the Bolt because of its range, technology and value, helping it outsell Ford’s Mach-E by more than two to one in September.

 

The Chevrolet Equinox EV and the GMC Sierra EV that we revealed in recent weeks, along with the Chevrolet Silverado EV and Blazer EV, are cornerstones of our strategy to rapidly grow EV volumes by winning in high-volume segments. They have all been incredibly well received by customers and industry experts who see them driving rapid EV adoption and conquest sales for GM, including in coastal markets.

 

The Chevrolet Bolt EV and Bolt EUV will continue to play an important role too. We’re increasing production from 44,000 units this year to 70,000 units next year, and we will leverage our industry-leading loyalty to move these customers into one of our new EVs for their next purchase.”

 

Lucid Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: LCID),  with the longest-range, fastest-charging electric car on the market, announced the opening of its first Studio in the Middle East, located in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The luxury retail space will invite customers to experience the brand and its products in the heart of Riyadh's Al Nakheel District. With a direct-to-consumer model, every Lucid Studio offers a digitally oriented premium experience tailored to each customer's preferences, whether they visit in person, make enquiries entirely online, or combine the two.

 

"The launch of our first Studio in the Middle East marks yet another step towards Lucid's mission to inspire the adoption of sustainable energy on a global scale, and I'm delighted this brand-new studio is set to open here in Saudi Arabia," said Peter Rawlinson, Lucid's CEO and CTO. "Saudi Arabia recognizes the seismic transition toward automobile electrification and it looks to the future to secure a better world for generations to come with Saudi Vision 2030."

 

Lucid's Riyadh Studio will allow customers to fully experience the brand and gain information about its products in a location that underscores the company's unique design aesthetic. Exploring a Lucid Studio, visitors will get a vision of how the company draws inspiration from the beauty, innovation, and diversity of its home, the state of California.

 

In other big news in the sector, BMW Group (BMW.DE) recently announced a $1.7 Billion (USD) investment to build electric vehicles in the US. Of the total, $1 billion will be to prepare for the production of electric vehicles at the company’s existing US manufacturing facility in South Carolina, and $700 million to build a new high-voltage battery assembly facility in nearby Woodruff, SC. By 2030, BMW Group will build at least six fully electric models in the US.

 

The new facility will encompass over 1 million sq. ft., and produce next generation batteries for fully electric vehicles. Around 300 new jobs will be created on site.

 

Thanks, that’s it for today. Do something good for this beautiful planet each and every day.

About the Wicheeda REE Property

 

The 100% owned 4,244-hectare Wicheeda REE Property, located approximately 80 km northeast of the city of Prince George, British Columbia, is readily accessible by all-weather gravel roads and is near infrastructure, including power transmission lines, the CN railway, and major highways.

 

The Wicheeda REE Project yielded a robust 2021 preliminary economic assessment technical report (PEA) that demonstrated an after-tax net present value (NPV@8%) of $517 million, and 18% IRR[3]. A unique advantage of the Wicheeda REE Project is the production of a saleable high-grade flotation-concentrate. The PEA contemplates a 1.8 Mtpa (million tonnes per year) mill throughput open pit mining operation with 1.75:1 (waste:mill feed) strip ratio over a 19 year mine (project) life producing and average of 25,423 tonnes REO annually. A Phase 1 initial pit strip ratio of 0.63:1 (waste:mill feed) would yield rapid access to higher grade surface mineralization in year 1 and payback of $440 million initial capital within 5 years.

 

Methodology and QA/QC

 

The analytical work reported on herein was performed by ALS Canada Ltd. (ALS) at Langley (sample preparation) and Vancouver (ICP-MS fusion), B.C. ALS is an ISO-IEC 17025:2017 and ISO 9001:2015 accredited geoanalytical laboratory and is independent of the Defense Metals and the QP. Drill core samples were subject to crushing at a minimum of 70% passing 2 mm, followed by pulverizing of a 250-gram split to 85% passing 75 microns. A 0.1-gram sample pulp was then subject to multi-element ICP-MS analysis via lithium-borate fusion to determine individual REE content (ME-MS81h). Defense Metals follows industry standard procedures for the work carried out on the Wicheeda Project, with a quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) program. Blank, duplicate, and standard samples were inserted into the sample sequence sent to the laboratory for analysis. Defense Metals detected no significant QA/QC issues during review of the data.

 

Qualified Person

 

The scientific and technical information contained in this news release as it relates to the Wicheeda REE Project has been reviewed and approved by Kristopher J. Raffle, P.Geo. (BC) Principal and Consultant of APEX Geoscience Ltd. of Edmonton, AB, a director of Defense Metals and a “Qualified Person” as defined in NI 43-101. Mr. Raffle verified the data disclosed which includes a review of the sampling, analytical and test data underlying the information and opinions contained therein.
