Hempalta Corp. (TSXV: HEMP) (‘Hempalta’ or the ‘Company’), a Canadian-based provider of nature-based carbon credit solutions, today issued a corporate update outlining recent developments in its strategic transition.
Equipment Sale Update
On May 22, 2025, Hempalta announced its wholly owned subsidiary, Hempalta Processing Inc. (‘HPI’), had entered into a US$1.15 million agreement to sell its hemp processing and biochar equipment (the ‘Transaction’). Despite follow up discussions and repeated assurances, the purchase price has not been paid to HPI; accordingly, HPI has retained ownership of all equipment and associated intellectual property and has reinitiated the asset sale process.

FCC Forbearance Agreement
In connection with the termination of the Transaction, HPI, has entered into a forbearance agreement with Farm Credit Canada (‘FCC’) dated effective June 2, 2025. This agreement extends protection through June 30, 2025, providing HPI time to complete a revised monetization plan for its processing assets while maintaining transparency and compliance with its senior lender.
Carbon Credit Market Momentum Continues
