Valens GroWorks Announces Increase to Financing and Closing of First Tranche

The Company also announces the closing of the first tranche of the Offering, issuing 1,997,536 common shares for gross proceeds of $2,796,550. Certain eligible persons (“Finders”) were paid a cash fee equal to 8% of the proceeds raised from subscribers introduced by such Finders. The net proceeds of the Offering will be used to fund additional growing and oil extraction capacity at existing facilities, and for general corporate purposes. The Company intends to close additional tranches of the Offering in the short term.

The Company is also pleased to announce that it has engaged Beacon Securities Limited (“Beacon”) to act as capital markets advisor to the Company. Beacon, a Toronto-based independent investment dealer, will provide ongoing advice to the Company with respect to its capital markets strategy.

Tyler Robson, Chief Executive Officer of Valens, stated “This is a significant development for Valens, facilitating our near-term expansion and additional licensing objectives in Canada, to become a premium product processor and manufacturer for LP’s, and ultimately to establish exports into Europe and the United States. Our proprietary process to generate 100% cannabis oil products without the use of solvents, and our distribution, marketing and sales agreement with Canopy Growth Corporation through its extensive CraftGrow distribution network, will enable us build immediate brand recognition, and positions us to become a leading processor when the anticipated Cannabis Act legislation for adult recreational use is approved.”

Closing of the Offering is subject to regulatory approval including that of the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”). All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus a day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities legislation.
