Core One Labs Signs Letter of Intent to Sell Certain Assets

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 30, 2020 / Core One Labs Inc. (CSE:COOL)(OTC PINK:CLABF), (Frankfurt:LD62) (WKN: A2P8K3) (the “Company“) is pleased to announce it has entered into a Letter of Intent (the “LOI“) with High Tower Capital Inc. (“High Tower“) dated effective October 15, 2020 to sell certain assets and subsidiaries to High Tower for CAD$3,000,000 and the assumption of USD$4,015,885 in related liabilities. High Tower will also assume all ongoing obligations related to the Assets (as defined below).

Core One has successfully engaged in negotiations to sell off non-core assets of the business, allowing it to focus on entering the psychedelic space and the continued development of its CannaStrip^TM technology. The additional capital generated from this sale will be used to further develop the thin strip technologies for use with psilocybin, as well as expanding the newly acquired psychedelic assets. In addition to the money coming in from the sale of the asset, this move also significantly reduces the monthly capital outlays the Company had been paying, resulting in cash to be allocated to strategic initiatives designed at increasing visibility in the psychedelic space.

“Reducing Core One’s capital outlays on non-core assets is essential to repositioning the company in the psychedelic space. I believe the psychedelic space is poised to become the next large pharmaceutical breakthrough in addressing both alcohol and opioid addiction, as well as anxiety and depression. The global market size for the treatment of these conditions is substantial, and the Company is excited to be part of these developments. By adapting our existing technology to become an effective and safe delivery method for psilocybin, Core One has the ability to become a leader in this space,” said Joel Shacker CEO of the company.
