New CEO: Richard C Hawkins wef April 2, 2025
Reverse Merger With Kepler GTL
Letter of Intent to Combine [source: PR dated February 17, 2026]
- On February 12, 2026 entered into a non-binding Letter of Intent and Transaction Overview with Kepler GTL.
Definitive Agreement Executed [source: PR dated March 5, 2026]
- Kepler GTL is a developer of proprietary, patent-protected gas-to-liquids [GTL] conversion technology designed to convert flared and stranded natural gas into Sustainable Aviation Fuel [SAF] and green diesel at commercial scale.
- $ECOX will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Kepler GTL through a reverse merger share exchange structure.
- $ECOX will continue as the surviving publicly traded company.
Patented Technology Ready for Commercial Deployment
- Kepler GTL's patented technology is ready for commercial development.
- The GTL conversion technology addresses 2 significant challenges facing the global energy industry:
-- Reducing wasteful natural gas flaring.
-- Expanding commercially viable SAF production.
- Kepler' GTL's technology is protected by issued patents and supported by additional patent applications, representing meaningful IP value and potential barriers to entry by competitors.
- Kepler GTL's modular, scalable facility design is engineered to convert flared or otherwise stranded natural gas into drop-in aviation fuel intended as a replacement for conventional jet fuel.
- No modifications to existing aircraft or fueling infrastructure would be required.
- A single Kepler GTL facility is projected to produce approximately 120M gals of SAF/year while reducing life-cycle carbon emissions by approximately 70% and flaring emissions by up to 97%.
Massive and Rapidly Expanding Market Opportunity
- The global aviation industry is under increasing regulatory and commercial pressure to decarbonize.
- Governments worldwide are implementing mandates and incentive programs to accelerate SAF adoption.
- Major airlines have made public commitments to significantly increase their use of sustainable fuels.
- Industry materials provided by Kepler indicate that less than 1/10 of 1% of commercial flights currently utilize SAF, representing a significant supply gap and a substantial commercialization opportunity.
- Demand for SAF is projected by industry sources to grow significantly over the next 25 years as regulatory requirements tighten and airline commitments come due.
- Kepler GTL's modular design provides a structural advantage: facilities may be deployed in regions where natural gas flaring and stranded gas resources create both environmental impact and economic inefficiency.
- This model seeks to reduce emissions while producing high-value fuel products aligned with global aviation decarbonization initiatives.
Path To SEC Fully Reporting Status
- JV CPA Inc.- a PCAOB-registered independent audit firm - retained to commence a 2-year PCAOB-compliant audit of the combined business.
- Costaldo Law Group P.C. - a corporate and securities law firm led by Evan J. Costaldo, Esq. - retained as Securities Counsel to guide regulatory compliance and corporate governance matters.
- $ECOX is actively preparing a Registration Statement on Form 10 for filing with the SEC to establish full reporting status for the combined entity.
- There is no pending litigation or disputes involving the Company.
- Completion of audited financial statements and SEC registration is intended to support enhanced transparency, expanded financial reporting and potential future capital markets initiatives.

Recent Trading / Trading Outlook
$ECOX has given an excellent return on a regular basis for anyone who watches continuously, is patient and who always has some shares that can be traded in any range it runs to on surges.
With only 7.8B shares Held At The DTC and the new business direction via a reverse merger with Kepler GTL, we can expect continued trading action and large surges for the foreseeable future.
The current Held At DTC shares count of only 7.8B is not high by current OTC standards. For instance, some other OTC tickers are diluting 500M > 2.6B every day - eg $RWAX [formerly $HMBL] - another of the highest trade volume stocks - has an A/S of 85B - up 35B in a single day in June - and a Held At DTC figure of 54.6B.
====================================================
Not a financial advisor - just stating what I'm basing my trading decisions on.
I will be holding some $ECOX in my portfolio throughout 2026 and into future years for long-term growth, trading some on surges from the bottom up too and reloading on any dips.
