Results of the 2019 calendar year audit of Nature’s Exclusive:

  • Revenue of Cdn$29,034,000
  • Net income of $3,505,000
  • Achieved a margin of over 12%

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / May 21, 2020 / Mota Ventures Corp. (CSE:MOTA)(FSE:1WZ1)(OTC PINK:PEMTF) (the “Company“) would like to thank all shareholders and investors for attending yesterday’s investor call. The main items addressed on the call were the completion of 2019 audit of the Nature’s Exclusive brand and the expansion of business in the natural health products sector through the proposed acquisition of Verrian.

The 2019 financial results for the Nature’s Exclusive brand is a strong indicator of the power of the Company’s eCommerce business model. This growth continued into 2020. For the months January through April 2020, the Company has generated revenue of Cdn$13,968,000 with related expenses of Cdn$13,514,000. Revenue has increased 188% for this time period over the same period during 2019. The Company’s customer acquisition and subscription retention strategies are yielding benefits through the year and into May where the Nature’s Exclusive brand has acquired over 17,613 customers from May 1st through May 18th. With over 60% of these customers electing into a subscription, the Company expects reduced costs in the following months, as customer acquisition expense is a one-time cost per customer.

As a leading business in the natural health products sector, we’ve been aggressively looking to expand our offering into growing segments of the market. Through this process, we identified psychedelic medicine as a unique opportunity, due to the overwhelming momentum of the sector and the incredible health benefits that can be obtained through derivative products.

The Company has come to terms to acquire Verrian, a leading company in the psychedelic medicine sector. Verrian owns and operates an established 110,000 square-foot pharmaceutical manufacturing facility in Germany that holds EU-GMP, ISO 14001, and narcotics manufacturing licenses. The facility and equipment of Verrian have been independently appraised at Cdn$10,600,000 and include an analytical laboratory and full pharmaceutical manufacturing suite.

Beyond the importance of this manufacturing asset, Verrian’s product commercialization process is already underway. The business has invested over Cdn$2,000,000 in clinical trials with two studies that are ongoing. These studies combined with our manufacturing abilities will uniquely prepare us to go-to-market once approval is granted.

Verrian’s product development pipeline is incredibly strong with two products named PSI Gen and PSI Gen+, which are both natural psilocybin extracts from organic mushrooms combined with metabolism-enhancing natural herbs. While there are many benefits patients may realize from utilizing psychedelic medicine, Verrian is focusing on opioid addiction reduction. This is an important mission as a company as it is estimated that over 13 million people in the world take opioids. For those individuals who have suffered a loss due to one’s addiction to a medically prescribed pharmaceutical, this holistic approach provided by Verrian and Mota is even more meaningful. In addition to treatments for opioids, new studies have demonstrated successful psilocybin treatments for both alcoholism and depression, substantially increasing the market size of potential patients. According to Marketdata, the United States market for alcohol and drug addiction rehab will be worth $42,000,000,000 in 2020, with over 15,000 private treatment facilities and growing.

“Our acquisition of Verrian is another step forward in executing our vision to use our powerful eCommerce platform for new and innovative natural health products. While we continue to grow and expand our CBD business units, we will also be ready to fully commercialize the technology created by Verrian. I look forward to working with Verrian’s incredibly talented team of clinical researchers and addiction medicine professionals within our existing ecosystem as it will uniquely position us as a leader in psychedelic medicine,” stated Ryan Hoggan, CEO of the Company.

Completion of the acquisition of Verrian remains subject to a number of conditions, including completion of due diligence, receipt of any required regulatory approvals and the negotiation of definitive documentation. For further information regarding the proposed acquisition, readers are encouraged to review the Company’s news release of May 19, 2020.

Finalization of Gratomic TODAQ Off-take Agreement $GRAT.ca $SRG.ca $NGC.ca $LLG.ca $GPH.ca $NOU.ca #TODAQ $NMI.ca

Posted by AGORACOM at 9:27 AM on Thursday, May 21st, 2020

  • Gratomic has formulated a concrete plan to complete the final 10% of mine construction and begin commission by October of 2020.

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / May 21, 2020 / Gratomic Inc. (“GRAT” or the “Company”) (TSXV:GRAT)(FRANKFURT:CB81)(WKN:A143MR) is pleased to announce an update on the purchase agreement between the Company and TODAQ where Gratomic’s Aukam mined graphite will be utilized as a backstop to underpin the value of deployed TODA Notes (“TDN“). TODA Notes are a payment and loyalty asset which are backstopped by a mixed basket of digital economy commodities, land and monetary assets with graphite among the first underlying commodities, which will be supplied by Gratomic Inc.

The Companies are pleased to announce that they are planning to extend delivery schedules against TODAQ’s current Purchase Orders for Aukam graphite, to be supplied by Gratomic Inc., and that they are continuing to work together to execute on the existing off-take agreement.

Co-Founder and CEO of TODAQ, Mr. Hassan Khan, states that In spite of the upheaval in the markets this year, we’ve been pleased to see overall demand increase for digital assets backed by ‘digital economy’ commodities like graphite. We look forward to working alongside our partner Gratomic in moving this project forward to delivery.”

Gratomic is currently completing its financing, which is intended to bring the mine into commission.

The Company has formulated a concrete plan to complete the final 10% of mine construction and begin commission by October of 2020.

The Commissioning Phase will lead the company into full production capacity of 20,000 tonnes per annum.

“We are very pleased at the progress of our purchase agreement with TODAQ and the coming completion of our processing facility at Aukam. We anticipate a long and successful business relationship with our partners at TODAQ” ~ President and CEO, Arno Brand

The Company will deliver TODAQ’s Product to an onsite warehouse beginning in November 2020, to fill the first three purchase orders totalling 1800 tonnes. Concurrent with the first delivery, both companies will be working together to implement an interoperable, transparent supply chain tracking solution powered by TODA for graphite along its entire lifecycle. The end goal is to provide the manufacturing, commodity trading or securitization markets a graphite digital asset that is fractionable, self-recording and self-validating with respect to its authenticity and provenance, and can be transacted peer to peer.

Gratomic wishes to emphasize that the supply of graphite pursuant to any off-take or supply agreement referred to in this Press Release is conditional on Gratomic being able to bring the Aukam project into a production phase, and for any graphite being produced to meet certain technical and mineralization requirements. Gratomic continues to move its business towards production and as part of its business plan, expects to obtain a National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects technical report to help it ascertain the economics of the Aukam project.

Presently the Company uses its existing pilot processing facility to produce certain amounts of graphite concentrate from accumulated surface graphite.

Risk Factors

No mineral resources, let alone mineral reserves demonstrating economic viability and technical feasibility, have been delineated on the Aukam Property. The Company is not in a position to demonstrate or disclose any capital and/or operating costs that may be associated with the processing plant.

The Company advises that it has not based its production decision on even the existence of mineral resources let alone on a feasibility study of mineral reserves, demonstrating economic and technical viability, and, as a result, there may be an increased uncertainty of achieving any particular level of recovery of minerals or the cost of such recovery, including increased risks associated with developing a commercially mineable deposit.

Historically, such projects have a much higher risk of economic and technical failure. There is no guarantee that production will begin as anticipated or at all or that anticipated production costs will be achieved.

Failure to commence production would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s ability to generate revenue and cash flow to fund operations. Failure to achieve the anticipated production costs would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s cash flow and future profitability.

To date, the company has effectively partnered with enterprises, financial institutions, and governments as our primary customers.

INTERVIEW: Datametrex $DM.ca Sells 10,000 COVID-19 Test Kits In $500,000 Deal With Global Mining Company

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:16 AM on Thursday, May 21st, 2020

When US Government Agencies call you in the middle of the greatest health and economic crisis in 100 years to help them detect social media disinformation about COVID-19, it is safe to assume your Artificial Intelligence capabilities to detect fake news, disinformation campaigns and their impact is amongst the most respected in the world.

Then, when the Canadian government calls on you to help with the import and sale of COVID-19 test kits from South Korea, it is also safe to assume your trust and security clearances are at the highest levels possible.

But the real credibility payoff comes when a global mining giant, with 4,000 employees across the world, knocks on your door to buy 10,000 kits for the purposes of protecting both their employees and their families in order to get operations re-started.

You would probably also assume such a company to be a tech giant or a Silicon Valley funded startup. But Datametrex AI (DM: TSXV) is neither. Rather, it is a great Canadian small cap technology company who is giving small cap investors an opportunity to participate in the emerging world of Artificial Intelligence, as well as, the brand new world of COVID-19 testing.

When a small cap Artificial Intelligence company is successfully deploying its technology with military and conglomerates, as well as, being called upon by the Canadian federal government and global conglomerates to ask for help with the greatest pandemic in 100 years, smart small cap investors are compelled to take a closer look.

That look can begin with our latest interview of Datametrex CEO, Marshall Gunter, who discusses how the Company was able to secure its first order of 10,000 COVID-19 test kits for $500,000.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (Nexstar) — When the whole world hit pause, millions of Americans escaped to a new reality online.

Sports management professor Lisa Neirotti says people are picking up a controller at a record rate.

“In this time of isolation, video games are the way that people are building a community,” says Neirotti. “It is already a 35% increase in the size of the people watching, playing, buying equipment.”

The Esports industry has skyrocketed over the last few years with revenue now surpassing $1 billion. The industry attracts more viewers than almost every major sports league — and it has advantages over other professional sports.

And the same goes for collegiate sports.

“The players are still playing when they are home because they can, and so this is something unique and special about Esports,” says Neirotti.

David Willis is the head coach of Esports at St. Edward’s University in Austin. He says 15 students currently compete on the university’s varsity team.

He says the season is still going — because it can. Willis says tournaments have been pushed through June.

Unlike non-virtual games, Esports can continue on.

“The different leagues are playing,” Neirotti says. “Overwatch league is playing. And it is filling the void.”
