VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 25, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NATURALLY SPLENDID ENTERPRISES LTD. (TSX-V: NSP) (OTCQB: NSPDF) is pleased to announce that it has closed the first tranche under its cooperation agreement with Wahupta Ventures Inc. (“Wahupta”) by issuing 555,556 common shares of Naturally Splendid at a price of $0.27 per share for total proceeds of $150,000.
The shares will be subject to restrictions on resale expiring on February 26, 2019.
As reported in the October 9, 2018 news release, the proceeds of the Investment will be used to continue the build of the Naturally Splendid’s cannabinoid extraction facility in Pitt Meadows and for working capital purposes. This first tranche is one of three tranches totaling $500,000 CDN and forms a portion of an overall investment of up to $2,000,000 CDN by Wahupta.
The Investment will allow Naturally Splendid to complete its Facility which will position the Company in a favorable position in the evolving cannabis markets in Canada within the new regulations taking effect October 17, 2018 as well as evolving regulations that are anticipated to create additional cannabinoid business opportunities moving forward.
Through Naturally Splendid’s wholly owned subsidiary, Naturally Splendid Extracts Ltd., Naturally Splendid has applied for a Dealer License under the Narcotic Control Regulations (Canada) in order to pursue a number of activities related to cannabis including research & development, product development and processing of cannabinoids. With new regulations coming into effect this past October 17th, the Company will now be eligible to receive licenses and permits that will be replacing the previous licensing structure.
Naturally Splendid President Mr. Craig Goodwin states, “Cannabis regulations continue to evolve positively globally as witnessed by the recent regulatory changes in Canada. We will continue to focus on the opportunities surrounding the myriad of cannabinoids contained within cannabis sativa and at this time will be focused on the many opportunities with cannabidiol (CBD). The Company has engaged consultants as well as imbedded expertise within our Advisory Board to guide us through regulatory procedures. The combination of the appropriate licensing in conjunction with extraction capabilities and new product development will continue to provide multiple new opportunities to the Company”.
