Ecoark Holdings Reiterates Record Date for Stock Dividends for Recent White River and Banner Midstream Spin-off Transactions

SAN ANTONIO, Sept. 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ecoark Holdings, Inc. (“Ecoark” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ZEST) today reiterated from its previous announcement on September 12, 2022 (see press release here) that all common and preferred stockholders of record as of the close of business on Friday September 30, 2022, will receive on a pro rata basis, one share (plus a fractional share to be determined based on the total shares outstanding on the record date) for every one share of Ecoark share they own (or on a converted basis for our preferred stockholder) through future distributions via spin-offs of Ecoark’s ownership of capital stock of two public companies it recently acquired.

On July 25, 2022, Ecoark exchanged its common stock of White River Holdings Corp for $30,000,000 of convertible preferred stock of White River Energy Corp which recently changed its name from Fortium Holdings Corp (OTC: FRTM) (”White River”). Upon conversion, which is subject to an effective Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), Ecoark’s convertible preferred stock converts into 42,253,521 shares of White River common stock.

Only September 6, 2022, Ecoark exchanged its common stock of Banner Midstream Corp (“Banner”) for 12,996,958 shares of Enviro Technologies US, Inc. (OTC: EVTN) (“Enviro”) common stock. Ecoark plans to effect a 4:1 forward stock split of Enviro’s common stock, subject to Financial Industry Regulatory Agency (“FINRA”) approval, which would increase Ecoark’s current stock position in Enviro to 51,987,832 shares.

Ecoark plans to move forward with White River and Enviro filing Registration Statements to register the underlying shares of common stock so that, upon effectiveness of the respective Registration Statements, the shares will be free trading.

Ecoark also plans to spin off its wholly-owned subsidiary, Zest Labs, Inc. (“Zest”). Ecoark plans to file a Form 10 with the SEC in October, which is the first step in Zest become a separate publicly-traded company. Assuming this timeline is met, Ecoark projects the record date for the Zest stock dividend will be November 15, 2022, close of business.
