  • Contribution of 1,000 Bitcoin to employ yield generation treasury strategy

  • Corporate name and ticker symbol will change to USBC

  • Greg Kidd to lead USBC as Chairman and CEO; USBC token sets new vision

CRYSTAL BAY, NV AND SEATTLE, WA / ACCESS Newswire / August 6, 2025 / Greg Kidd and Know Labs, Inc. (NYSE American:KNW) (“Know Labs” or the “Company”) today announced the successful closing of the strategic acquisition of a controlling interest in the Company by Goldeneye 1995, LLC (“Buyer”), an affiliate of Mr. Kidd, on August 6, 2025, following approval by the Company’s shareholders. Upon closing of the transaction, Mr. Kidd was appointed Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors.

Subsequent to closing, the Company’s corporate legal name will change to USBC, Inc., and its ticker symbol will change from KNW to USBC, unveiling a new vision centered on the USBC token. The USBC token is a U.S.-dollar denominated token leveraging digital identity and blockchain technology that is fully redeemable and earns high-yield rewards.

“The USBC token is an inclusive, compliant, and programmable digital dollar,” said Greg Kidd. “We believe this approach delivers a new standard for trust and utility in digital money, generating sustainable growth, and long-term value creation for our shareholders.”

USBC founding team member Linda Jenkinson has been appointed Vice Chair of the Board. As part of this board leadership transition, the composition of the full board of directors will be further assessed to ensure alignment with the Company’s new strategic direction. Joining Mr. Kidd’s executive leadership team are USBC founding team members Kirk Chapman as Chief Operating Officer and Kitty Payne as Chief Financial Officer, effective immediately. Ms. Payne and Mr. Chapman will lead the execution of the Company’s new vision and will be supported by veteran USBC team members who designed and developed the USBC platform from its inception, bringing with them decades of expertise in technology and finance.

Know Labs founder, Ron Erickson, will serve as President of a new division of the Company that has retained a team of scientists to continue its proprietary diagnostic research in non-invasive medical technology. Mr. Erickson will provide his visionary guidance and strategic oversight in the role of Lead Director on the Company’s Board.

Under the terms of the previously announced agreement, the Buyer contributed 1,000 Bitcoin and $15 million in cash to acquire 357.8 million new common shares. The Bitcoin will be employed by a yield generation treasury strategy and the cash contributed will be used to retire the Company’s existing debt, redeem outstanding preferred equity, and provide working capital.

Effective August 15, 2025, the Company’s ticker symbol will change from KNW to USBC. Shares of the Company’s common stock will continue to trade on the NYSE American under the new name USBC, Inc. (NYSE American:USBC) and the CUSIP number will remain unchanged. No shareholder action is required in connection with these changes.

Advisors

Cohen & Company Capital Markets, a division of Cohen & Company Securities, LLC served as exclusive financial advisor and Lowenstein Sandler LLP acted as legal advisor to the Buyer. Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel LLP acted as legal advisor to the Company.

About Know Labs, Inc.

Under the leadership of newly-appointed Chairman and CEO, Greg Kidd, the Company has begun its transition into a multi-disciplinary enterprise that also strategically invests in pioneering technologies spanning digital assets and banking.

As part of this shift, the Company is deploying a Bitcoin treasury strategy and investing in the further development of the USBC token, a digital U.S. dollar operating on blockchain technology embedded with digital identity that pays high-yield rewards through the USBC mobile app. With a focus on identity, inclusion, innovation, and risk management, the Company is dedicated to creating long-term shareholder value in a rapidly evolving financial landscape.
