Business focus and strategic relationships

Specialty real estate and redevelopment model
In its news releases, Arvana characterizes its move into real estate as an effort to enhance stockholder value by capitalizing on fixed business opportunities in vacant or underused commercial properties. The company has highlighted the availability of empty shopping malls, big box stores and superstores across the United States at prices it describes as a fraction of replacement cost. Through FirstShot and PintoCity, Arvana has outlined a strategy of acquiring such properties and repurposing them to attract new tenants and create distinctive real estate offerings.
Arvana has also referenced work with FirstShot to integrate shooting ranges into redevelopment projects, with the goal of creating dynamic, multifunctional spaces.

Financing initiatives and equity line of credit
Arvana has announced several financing initiatives intended to support acquisitions and development activities by PintoCity. The company reported that it is undertaking both debt and equity financing proposals, including a $100 million financing proposal presented in two tranches to prospective lenders and equity investors. It has disclosed that letters of intent have been received from a lender for a portion of this amount and that negotiations are underway for additional funding commitments.
To complement proposed debt financing, Arvana has stated that it is offering a private placement of shares to accredited investors and lenders. The company has also announced acceptance of a $100 million equity line of credit from Generating Alpha Ltd., a St. Kitts and Nevis corporation, with a five-year term. According to Arvana, this line of credit is intended for expansion and acquisitions for PintoCity as a sub-developer. The terms described give Arvana discretion to require the investor to purchase shares at a stated percentage of market price through individual drawdowns referred to as “Puts.”
In an amended Form 8-K, Arvana reported a fully executed Stock Purchase Agreement with Generating Alpha Ltd. under which the investor agreed to purchase up to $100,000,000 of the company’s fully registered, freely tradable common stock, subject to specified conditions.

In its update on OTCQB and OTCID, Arvana noted that OTC Markets announced that Pink Current listings that qualify can become OTCID. Arvana stated that it meets the eligibility standards for the OTCID market and that it would consider the relative costs, standards and market characteristics of OTCID and OTCQB in deciding whether to pursue a move from the Pink Market. The company has described upgrading to OTCID or OTCQB as a way to enhance transparency and compliance and to reduce trading restrictions associated with the Pink Market.
Use of AI in commercial real estate planning
Arvana has announced that PintoCity Centers will use artificial intelligence for mall space planning. In its description, the company highlights the use of AI in office and commercial property management to size, manage, secure, and optimize spaces for tenant comfort. It notes that AI can be applied to generate floor plans based on building size, shape and usage, support predictive maintenance by analyzing data from building systems, and manage energy usage by adjusting heating, cooling and lighting based on occupancy and environmental conditions.
According to Arvana’s release, these AI applications are intended to improve operational efficiency, extend the lifespan of building infrastructure, reduce operational costs, and personalize tenant experiences. PintoCity’s typical building size is described as more than 200,000 square feet, and Arvana has stated that AI can make it easier and faster to generate floor plans for potential tenants and reach revenue.
