Gunpowder Capital Corp., Exits Partnership with JIT Financial Inc., and ATM Business

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - June 8, 2018) - Gunpowder Capital Corp. (CSE: GPC) (CSE: GPC.PR.A) (OTCQB: GNPWF) (FSE: YS6N) ("Gunpowder" or the "Corporation") announced today that it has ended its partnership with JIT Financial Inc., ("JIT") and that the Corporation is currently no longer in the ATM business.

The now terminated partnership was in effect for sixteen months. The original plan of the partnership was to allow the Corporation the ability to purchase a majority stake of the ATM Business or the ATM Business in full. The Corporation was unable to structure a partnership and revenue sharing agreement that was acceptable to all parties. The Corporation has sold back its stake in all acquired ATM's for no gain, or loss. The income earned during the sixteen months from ATM ownership was immaterial to Gunpowder. Gunpowder has also been repaid in full it's vaulting loan of One Million Dollars ('$1,000,000.00") CDN. Interest earned on this loan is approximately 20% per annum and we believe we can earn a better return on capital deploying these funds into other deals.

The Corporation may elect to re-enter into the ATM business space in the future.
