LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / January 30, 2023 / XS Financial Inc. ('XS Financial', 'XSF' or the 'Company') (CSE:XSF)(OTCQB:XSHLF), a specialty finance company providing CAPEX and equipment financing solutions to cannabis companies in the United States, announced today that it has entered into a new lease facility with Aeriz Holdings Corp ('Aeriz'), an aeroponic cannabis cultivator with a presence in California, Arizona, and Illinois. All amounts are in U.S. dollars.

Antony Radbod, COO of XS Financial commented: 'CAPEX financing continues to become increasingly popular within the cannabis industry across all sizes of operators. Single-state and multi-state operators see the value in making smaller payments while the equipment generates revenue versus lump sum capital outlay. Equipment purchases are one of the most capital-intense challenges operators face, and XS is excited to continue supporting the industry and high-quality operators like Aeriz.'

David Thomas, CEO of Aeriz commented: 'Leasing, rather than purchasing equipment, gives us a great financing option as we continue to grow our business. In addition, XS Financial's expertise in the cannabis industry makes them an extremely attractive business partner for us.'
