Elevai Labs Inc. Announces Name Change to PMGC Holdings Inc. and Redomicile to Nevada
21 December 2024 - 11:30AM
PMGC Holdings Inc. (formerly known as Elevai Labs Inc.) (Nasdaq:
ELAB) (before and after the redomestication, the “Company” or “we”)
announced today that it completed a strategic reorganization. This
reorganization included changing the Company’s name from Elevai
Labs Inc. to PMGC Holdings Inc. and redomiciling from Delaware to
Nevada. Upon this reorganization, the Company will continue to
trade on The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol
“ELAB.” The redomestication and name change will be effective on
Nasdaq at the opening of business on December 23, 2024.
The Company’s name change reflects its expanded
vision and commitment to building a portfolio of operating
companies and assets with significant growth potential. As PMGC
Holdings Inc. (“PMGC Holdings”), the Company will concentrate on
enhancing operational efficiencies across its existing entities,
pursuing synergistic acquisitions, and considering strategic
divestitures of assets or companies that are underperforming or do
not align with its long-term strategy. In doing so, the Company
aims to reduce costs, optimize returns, and enhance shareholder
value.
Benefits of Redomiciling to Nevada
The Company’s decision to redomicile from
Delaware to Nevada aligns with its mission to streamline operations
and create a more efficient legal and governance framework. Nevada
offers several legal benefits, including:
-
Business-Friendly Regulatory Environment: Nevada
provides a modern and flexible corporate law framework that
supports growth-oriented businesses like PMGC Holdings Inc., with
provisions designed to reduce legal and operational
complexities.
-
Director and Officer Protections: Nevada statutes
offer robust indemnification and liability protection for directors
and officers, promoting confident leadership and
decision-making.
-
Cost Efficiency: Redomiciling to Nevada lowers
state franchise tax obligations and other regulatory fees compared
to those of Delaware, which the Company believes will result in
significant long-term cost savings for the Company and its
shareholders.
-
Flexibility in Shareholder Governance: Nevada law
provides flexibility in shareholder governance, including
provisions for corporate structuring and amendments, which align
well with PMGC Holdings’ diversified holding company strategy.
