On February 21, 2023, CQENS Technologies Inc. (the "Company") was notified by its IP counsel that on February 14, 2023, the Company was issued U.S. Patent 11,576,427 by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for a Heat-not-Burn Device and Method. This issuance represents the sixth Heat-not-Burn related patent that the Company has been issued, three in the U.S., one in Japan, one in Singapore and one in Korea that was issued earlier this year. The new U.S. patent expands and extends the technology behind the proprietary CQENS System, a development stage device and method for the inductive heating of a variety of substrates—including, but not limited to, tobacco.

The system is designed to produce an aerosol for the effective inhalation of the substrates' constituents. This is accomplished without combustion or the accompanying constituents of combustion. As of the date of this filing, the Company has another 27 pending US and international patents and has designed, completed, and is currently testing a series of fully functional prototypes consistent with its patents and pending patents.
