BevCanna Receives $750,000 in Proceeds Led by Executive Management To Fuel Continued Growth


 

THIS NEWS RELEASE IS NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

 

Funds will be used for enhancements to manufacturing facility, in preparation for launch of infused beverages in Canadian market

 

VANCOUVER, BC, October 23, 2020. Emerging leader in infused cannabis beverages BevCanna Enterprises Inc. (BevCanna or “the Company”) announced today that the Company has received a capital injection of $750,000. The funds are the proceeds of a Unit private placement (the “Private Placement”) of $250,000 at $0.25 per Unit and a $500,000 senior management exercise of 1,500,000 stock options, at an exercise price of $0.30 per share.

 

The funds are being used to provide additional working capital, including that related to the preparation of the Company’s Canadian industry-leading high-capacity beverage manufacturing operations for the imminent receipt of their Standard Processing License from Health Canada. Receipt of this license will enable BevCanna to begin production at the manufacturing facility for its white label clients, and to begin selling its products through licensed Canadian retailers.

 

“This capital injection has allowed us to accelerate the equipping of our world-class beverage manufacturing facilities to process a range of infused cannabis beverages,” said John Campbell, Chief Financial Officer of BevCanna. “We’re in the final stages of approval for our Standard Processing License and these enhancements will ensure that we’re ready to move ahead immediately upon receipt.”

 

A portion of the funds are being invested into enhancements of BevCanna’s recently acquired direct-to-consumer website, Pure Therapy, stimulating revenue growth through the investment in customer acquisition and the addition of new products.

 

Each Unit is comprised of one common share in the capital of the Issuer (each, a Share) and one-half of one transferable common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a Warrant). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Share (each, a “Warrant Share) at a price of $0.40 per Warrant Share until 5:00PM PT on the date of expiration of the Warrant, which is two years following the Closing Date.

 

None of the securities acquired in the Private Placement will be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and none of them may be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state where such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful.

 

The securities acquired in the Private Placement are subject to resale restrictions imposed by applicable law or regulation, including a statutory hold period expiring four months and one day from the date of the Private Placement.
