The Yield Growth licensed formulas include skin care formulas such as face masks, body oils, creams, face oils, exfoliants, food and beverages formulas such as teas, ayurvedic herbal blend formulas, and other wellness formulas for the purpose of developing, manufacturing, marketing and selling products worldwide, excluding Canada. The formulas may be used in foods, beverages, personal care, skin care, cosmetic and other wellness products that are infused with functional mushrooms or psilocin or psilocybin (magic mushrooms) or any combination thereof.

In consideration for the non-exclusive 50 year license, Flourish Mushroom Labs has agreed to pay $3,000,000 to Yield Growth. The fee is payable as follows: $1,800,00 payable as 90 million common shares of Flourish Mushroom Labs to be issued to Yield Growth at a deemed value of $0.02 per share, which shall be subject to escrow provisions pursuant to NP 46-201. The remaining sum of $1,200,000 may be paid in cash over 24 months, but if Flourish Mushroom Labs is successful in listing its stock on a Canadian stock exchange under the symbol “MUSH”, which symbol has already been reserved, within 6 months, then $200,000 shall be deducted from the purchase price, and if a listing is achieved between 6 – 12 months, then $400,000 shall be deducted from the purchase price.

This acquisition by Flourish Mushroom Labs adds to its existing catalogue of mushroom based coffee, teas, elixirs, soups and other edibles. Flourish Mushroom Lab intends to begin commercialization of its extensive catalogue with mushroom-based soups and coffees.

“We are positioning Flourish Mushroom Labs to be a key player in the fast growing international functional mushroom market,” says Penny White, Yield Growth CEO. “Flourish Mushroom Labs also acquired the rights to infuse the products in its newly acquired formulas with psychedelic mushrooms where it’s legal to do so.”

The global functional food market is forecasted to reach USD $34.3 billion by 2024, growing at a CAGR of 8.04% during the forecast period (2019-2024), according to a report by Research and Markets.

An October 21, 2019, a press release by Fortune Business Insights entitled, “Why the Functional Mushrooms Market is set to explode,” predicts that the global functional mushrooms market will gain momentum from growing awareness of the health benefits of mushrooms. According to the report summary, functional mushrooms have several functional properties that can be utilized in the production of food products, medicines, and cosmetics. Being rich in antioxidants, they can offer skin-enhancing benefits, aid immune and digestive function, and can balance energy levels. The report anticipates growth in consumption of dietary supplements by consumers looking to remain healthy and disease free to propel the demand for functional mushrooms during the forecast years. The report also suggests rapid urbanization, changing lifestyles, and increasing per capita income will aid the growth of the global functional mushrooms market in upcoming years.
