Ether Capital Corporation Discloses Information Regarding Portfolio Company Wyre

January 9, 2023 By Business Wire

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--$ETHC--Ether Capital Corporation (“Ether Capital” or “the Company”) wishes to disclose information to the market regarding its non-core portfolio company, Wyre, Inc. (“Wyre”).


Wyre, a U.S.-based cryptocurrency infrastructure provider, has encountered financial headwinds following the collapse of cryptocurrency exchange FTX and failed acquisition by Bolt, which was terminated in September 2022. As a result, Wyre confirmed via a release on January 6, 2022, that business conditions have deteriorated and it is assessing strategic alternatives. These strategic alternatives will likely impact Wyre’s shareholders.

This news does not have a material impact on Ether Capital as Wyre is a non-core investment. Ether Capital invested US$1.5 million (approximately C$2 million) into Wyre in 2018. As of September 30, 2022, the fair market value of Ether Capital’s investment in Wyre was C$2.03 million, representing 2.2 per cent of Ether Capital’s total assets ($0.06 per share).

Ether Capital anticipates its initial investment in Wyre may result in a full write-down, but will make a final determination once more information becomes available.
