About Tevano and Corporate Update

The following is an update on Tevano's progress in the last four months and its business intent following the successful acquisition of Aqua-Eo, an environmentally focused industrial technology and engineering company.

Tevano from its inception has been a hardware and software business solutions company that aims to develop and sell innovative technologies with the potential to transform industries and meet emerging market demands.

While our initial commercial product as a public issuer was the Tevano Health Shield, we have always kept an eye out for other software offerings that we believe could benefit other business owners. Our goal has been to leverage our expertise in software and hardware to develop cutting-edge technologies that can drive growth and deliver value for our stakeholders.

The acquisition of Aqua-Eo aligns with Tevano's strategic goals of expanding into emerging technology sectors and diversifying our product offerings. Aqua-Eo brings with it expertise in the lithium space, which is a critical component in renewable energy technologies such as electric vehicles and grid-scale energy storage systems. With this acquisition, Tevano is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for sustainable technologies and expand our presence in the emerging renewable energy sector.
In addition to the acquisition of Aqua-Eo and checking other potential acquisitions, management of Tevano has been using their best efforts to strengthen Tevano's balance sheet. Since mid-January 2023 to mid-April 2023, management has successfully cleaned up over $1,148,687 of current debt by using new equity ($402,500) received in private placement and shares for debt settlements ($746,187). These actions have allowed Tevano to pay down a substantial amount of its outstanding debt and improve the financial flexibility of Tevano as a company. Management intends to continue to look at various avenues to reduce its debt even further.

At Tevano, we are committed to developing and commercializing innovative technologies that have the potential to transform industries and create long-term value for our stakeholders. We look forward to updating you on our progress as we continue to execute on our strategic vision.

Thank-you for your support of Tevano and its management.
