TORONTO – Shiny Health & Wellness Corp. (the “Company” “SNYB”) (TSXV: SNYB) signs a letter of intent (“LOI”) with Stash & Co. (“SC”) to acquire all of Stash & Co.’s adult use cannabis retail stores.
The Company announces an LOI to acquire 10 SC adult use cannabis retail stores with forecasted 2023 revenues of approximately CAD$10,000,000. As part of this transaction SNYB will be the sole owner of the Stash & Co. brand and trademark and the dispensaries will not be rebranded and remain Stash and Co. SC is an award-winning brand with stores across Ontario, including Toronto, Ottawa, London, Kitchener, Oshawa and Collingwood, as well as being one of the original cannabis stores in Canada with one of the most experienced staff in the cannabis industry. The Company intends to welcome all current SC customer-facing retail employees to continue providing a differentiated brand and customer experience.
Based upon the Company’s review of the diligence materials to date, management meetings, and assuming satisfactory results of confirmatory due diligence, the Company would complete the transaction based on an aggregate purchase price equal to $1,000,000; CAD$800,000 in cash and CAD$200,000 in common shares in the capital of SNYB. The value of inventory remaining in the SC stores, as of the closing date, shall be an aggregate amount equal to $300,000, based on wholesale prices paid by the vendor to the Ontario Cannabis Store. SC will have the option, exercisable within 90 days after the closing date, for Karan Someshwar Holla to have a directorship on the board of directors of SNYB., subject to approval by the TSXV. The purchase transaction is subject to customary AGCO approvals.
