(CSE:BILZ, OTCQX: BILZF) (“IGNITE” or the “Company”), a global consumer packaged goods brand, today announced the filing of its audited financial statements, MD&A, and accompanying certificates for its fiscal 2020 filings (collectively, the “2020 Filings”). The 2020 Filings have been filed on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval and may be viewed by shareholders and interested parties under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com. “With the publishing of these results, we close off a difficult transition year in which the company emerged far better positioned to achieve significant profitability and growth in 2021,” said Dan Bilzerian, CEO at IGNITE, adding, “The new management team had to overcome the difficulties of operating during a pandemic and a crippled worldwide supply chain. This made the introduction of new products and maintaining an adequate supply of existing products an unprecedented challenge. But I am pleased with the execution of our new management team and our new important partnerships which should help enable IGNITE to substantially increase sales by satisfying the increasing global consumer demand for our products.” “2020 was a transition year. In 2021, Ignite will rapidly expand into other countries and regions around the globe. Our new products are being received positively in the market leading to increased sales. At the same time we have significantly reduced our costs. I am pleased to say that Ignite is finally poised to realize its extraordinary potential,” said John Schaefer, President and COO at IGNITE.
