VANCOUVER, British ColumbiaApril 7, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — NewLeaf Brands Inc. (CSE: NLB) (OTC: NLBIF) (FSE: 0NF) (“NewLeaf Brands” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has signed a letter of intent (the “LOI”) dated April 6, 2020 to acquire Mydecine Group (“Mydecine”), a Colorado headquartered company.  Mydecine is a vertically integrated company engaged to utilize the vast medicinal, health and wellness capabilities of the many compounds found in various strains of mushroom and fungi as a whole. The Company, through its three wholly-owned divisions, “Mydecine Farms”, “Mydecine Wellness”, and “Psydecine Labs” aims to be an industry pioneer in the cultivation, processing, product development, and research and development of the many beneficial and exciting compounds that are found in various strains of mushroom and fungi from all around the world.

Numerous compounds found in various strains of mushroom and fungi are already being used to develop treatments for health conditions such as depression, PTSD and opiate addiction. Meanwhile, in 2019, the National Alliance on Mental Illness had stated that 1 in 6 youths aged 6-17 in the U.S. experience a mental health disorder each year and 1 in 25 U.S. adults experience a serious mental illness each year[1].

Joshua Bartch CEO of NewLeaf Brands commented, “We’ve been watching and closely monitoring the progress of the mycology space for some time now. Given that we are located in the home state to first decriminalize psilocybin in the U.S., the Company has had a unique opportunity to get a jump on the potential industry as a whole. So far, Denver and Oakland have decriminalized psilocybin, while Oregon has a measure to legalize the substance as soon as this year! We share a common vision of Mydecine in the sense of seeing the vast potential of mycology as a whole, not just the compound psilocybin. Numerous other compounds found in fully legal fungi are very exciting and hold the potential to make truly revolutionary discoveries, IP and products.  We see this as an incredibly early opportunity with enormous potential upside.”

Pursuant to the LOI, the Company will purchase 100% of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of Mydecine for USD $850,000, payable in common shares in the capital of the Company. The Company will pay a finder’s fee for the transaction. The Company will look to close the transaction following the completion of the due diligence investigations. Closing is subject to definitive documentation and applicable regulatory approvals.
