Tel Aviv, Israel, March 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Jeffs' Brands Ltd (“Jeffs’ Brands” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: JFBR, JFBRW), a data-driven e-commerce company operating on the Amazon Marketplace, today announced that further to its press release dated February 6, 2025, regarding the definitive agreement to complete the contemplated merger of Fort Products Limited, a U.K.-based private company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Fort Products”), with Impact Acquisitions Corp. (“Impact”), a capital pool company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Proposed Merger”), Impact has obtained a valuation report from Evans & Evans, Inc. (“Evans & Evans”), which indicates that in the opinion of Evans & Evans, the fair market value of the equity interests of Fort Products as of January 31, 2025, is between CAD 16.8 and 20.5 million (approximately US$11.6 to US$14.2 million), on a controlling, marketable basis, subject to the assumptions and qualifications specified therein. 

The Company considers the receipt of the valuation report as an important step towards the completion of the Proposed Merger, as one of the closing conditions for the Proposed Merger is the receipt of a minimum valuation for Fort Products of CAD 14 million (approximately US 9.6 million). The Company continues to work diligently towards the completion of the Proposed Merger.

Under the definitive share purchase agreement (the “Definitive Agreement”), Impact will acquire from the Company, 100% of Fort Products’ equity interests in consideration for 75.02% ownership of Impact’s share capital, or up to 83.29% ownership contingent upon meeting predetermined milestones.

The completion of the Proposed Merger is subject to the satisfaction of additional conditions, including but not limited to, due diligence, corporate and regulatory approvals and the receipt of a Pre-Ruling from the Israel Tax Authority.

Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all condition precedents to the Proposed Merger, Impact and Jeffs’ Brands anticipate that the Proposed Merger will be completed by May 31, 2025. There can be no assurance that the Proposed Merger will be completed on the terms proposed above or at all.

In addition, upon closing of the Proposed Merger, Impact intends to issue equity to certain finders (the “Finders”) as compensation for providing advisory services in connection with the Proposed Merger. Mr. Viki Hakmon, the Company’s chief executive officer and director, may be deemed to have a personal interest in the Proposed Merger, by virtue of being a relative of one of the Finders, and as such the Proposed Merger was approved by the Company’s Audit Committee and Board of Directors in accordance with the Israeli Companies Law-1999.
