JACKSONVILLE, Fla., June 16, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Acquired Sales Corp. (OTCQX: AQSP ) today announced that it has signed a letter of intent:

 

  • To acquire 100% of the ownership interests of rapidly growing Savage Enterprises ( www.SavageEnterprises.com ), Irvine, California (“Savage”), which owns award-winning delta-8-THC and delta-10-THC brand Delta Effex ( www.DeltaEffex.com ), CBD brand Savage CBD ( www.SavageCBD.com ), e-liquid brand Vape 100 ( www.vape100.co ), and premium kratom and kava-based products brand Zen Panda, for an aggregate merger consideration of $44 million, consisting of $15,840,000 in cash plus 8,691,358 shares of Acquired Sales Corp.’s unregistered common stock; and
  • To enter the California marijuana industry by AQSP purchasing 100% of Premier Greens LLC (“Premier Greens”), which has five conditional use permits (CUPs) from the City of Palm Springs for the cultivation, manufacturing, dispensing, delivery and distribution of marijuana, and is in the second of three phases to obtain its state licenses to grow, sell and deliver marijuana, and by Savage increasing its ownership of MKRC Holdings, LLC (“MKRC”), which owns a 5,560 square foot building to be used for the growing, selling and transportation of marijuana, from 46% to 100%, for an aggregate purchase consideration of $2,000,000 in cash.

 

Christopher G. Wheeler, co-founder, co-owner, and CEO of Savage, stated, “We feel that the combination of Savage Enterprises and Lifted Made will be unstoppable, and we look forward to helping to quarterback AQSP’s future growth and diversification. 2021 year to date, Savage Enterprises’ unaudited revenue is just over $13,000,000, and at our current run rate Savage Enterprises’ revenue is conservatively expected to be 200% over last year. Based upon Savage Enterprises’ unaudited year to date financial performance, and barring significant changes in the industry, we conservatively expect Savage to generate over $7 million in post-closing annual pre-tax net income for AQSP, which would be immediately accretive to AQSP’s earnings per share.”

 

Matt Winters, co-founder, co-owner, and President and CFO of Savage, stated, “As a growing company with excellent free cash flow, Savage had many go-forward options available to us. After extensive discussions and analysis, we concluded that the best route to build the cannabis industry leader is for us to partner with Nick Warrender, Jake and Gerry Jacobs, Lifted Made and AQSP. It is harder than you think to find people who are like-minded about the quality of products produced, the overall customer experience, and the need for a decentralized approach to entrepreneur-led management in our very fast-moving and evolving industry. Partnering with Lifted Made is going to be a game changer. I am overjoyed to bring massive growth to the business, and I’m ready to jump on board to help direct the next big moves this industry needs to see. I can’t wait to see the next company we bring into AQSP alongside Savage and Lifted!”

 

Closing of the transactions is subject to a number of conditions, including but not limited to completion of an acceptable due diligence investigation and audit of Savage, Premier Greens and MKRC, completion of a capital raise of at least $30 million by AQSP, execution of definitive acquisition documents, receipt of a tax opinion on the Savage merger, obtaining all necessary approvals, and the completion of all necessary securities filings.

 

Christopher G. Wheeler and Matt Winters, the co-founders and co-owners of Savage, will continue to serve as the CEO and CFO, respectively, of Savage, Premier Greens and MKRC, and shall also serve as the Co-Founder and Chief Sales Officer, and as the Co-Founder and Chief Risk Officer, respectively, of AQSP, under long-term employment agreements.

 

Co-founded in 2014 by Christopher G. Wheeler and Matt Winters, Savage was established with the vision of bringing innovation to the counter-culture space. Savage has been committed to improving the community it serves by providing superior, consumer-centered and cost-effective products that are third-party lab-tested with quality assurance, consistency, and traceability. Savage’s goal is to create the benchmark for quality and assurance in the industry. Under its Delta Effex brand, Savage sells delta-10-THC cartridges, disposables and tinctures, delta-8-THC-infused shots, cartridges, concentrates, disposables, edibles, delta-8-THC-infused hemp flower, pods and tinctures. Under Savage CBD, Savage sells CBD cartridges, disposables, edibles, tinctures, topicals, vape juice and CBD for pets. Under its Vape 100 brand, Savage produces nicotine-infused e-liquids. For its Vape 100 e-liquid, Savage has filed a Premarket Tobacco Application (“PMTA”) with the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (“FDA”), which the FDA has received and is reviewing. Under its Zen Panda brand, Savage sells various kratom and kava-based products. Savage also sells disposable nicotine vapes. The team at Savage is currently developing at least three other products in the supplement arena, as well as innovative apparatuses for marijuana consumption.

 

Premier Greens has five CUPs from the City of Palm Springs for the cultivation, manufacturing, dispensary, delivery and distribution of marijuana, and is in the second of three phases to obtain its state licenses to grow, sell and deliver marijuana from the 5,560-square foot building owned by MKRC that is located in Palm Springs, California.

 

Christopher G. Wheeler, co-founder, co-owner and CEO of Savage, stated, “Being in the counter-culture space for almost a decade I realized early on that there are many avenues to which we can bring creative solutions, and be very disruptive. Because of the nature of our industry, it takes a company that has its eyes on producing the best quality of products and really bringing the next big things to the table first. Diversification of product offerings is a major key to success if you want to win big in this arena, and Savage has consistently been a product introduction leader, largely because we have relentlessly reinvested our cash flow back into the company, and have very little debt.”

 

Matt Winters continued, “In addition to Savage’s and Lifted’s outstanding delta-8-THC, delta-10-THC, CBD, e-liquids, and premium kratom and kava-based brands, our companies Premium Greens and MKRC will allow AQSP to significantly diversify into the regulated marijuana industry in California. Currently we are almost through state licensing and we have already obtained five CUPs from the City of Palm Springs. We are expecting to break ground on our build out of MKRC’s building in Palm Springs sometime this summer. We are beyond excited to operate this business and we are in the process of obtaining almost every California marijuana license you can get, including cultivating, manufacturing, dispensing, and distributing/transporting. Alongside our nationally known hemp brands Delta Effex and Urb Finest Flowers, this is going to be a grand slam!”

 

Nicholas S. Warrender, co-founder, Vice Chairman of Chief Operating Officer of AQSP, and CEO of Lifted Made, commented: “Partnering with Savage Enterprises is a big step forward in uniting industry leading brands. Chris Wheeler and Matt Winters are visionary entrepreneurs who have consistently set trends and have been on the forefront of pioneering emerging industries and products. I look forward to collaborating and working together as partners to achieve our goal of creating the largest and most profitable public company in the cannabis space.”

 

William C. “Jake” Jacobs, CPA, President and CFO of Acquired Sales Corp., said, “We are laser-focused on identifying the best entrepreneurs with fast-growing and profitable cannabis and related companies who are enthusiastic about partnering with us. Chris Wheeler and Matt Winters are spectacularly effective company builders, who have known Nick Warrender for years, and who are already our partners in LftdXSvg LLC, which is developing hemp-derived THCV products. Savage’s products, brand awareness, distribution capabilities, growth and free cash flow are outstanding, and AQSP is very fortunate to have Chris and Matt joining us in building the industry leader over the next few years.”

 

Gerard M. Jacobs, CEO of Acquired Sales Corp., said, “Chris Wheeler and Matt Winters are born entrepreneurs, highly intelligent and agile decision-makers. Savage Enterprises’ rapid growth and robust cash flow stand in stark contrast to the many large publicly traded cannabis companies that are growing slower and posting large losses quarter after quarter, yet have market capitalizations that are boxcar numbers in the hundreds of millions of dollars, and in some cases in the billions of dollars. Chris, Matt and the rest of the Savage team will be critical players in Acquired Sales Corp.’s continued growth, acquisitions, and strategic planning. We are very excited to have them as our partners going forward!”
