The Company has already built a proof-of-concept prototype for the Sleepbee Sleep Mask and Sleepbee Mattress Topper. Hapbee is currently engaged in advanced design iterations, with an emphasis on producing chic products that utilize high-quality fabrics and materials for the sleep mask and bed topper

"Amongst the most important aspect to one's overall wellness is getting consistent and scheduled rest," said Yona Shtern, CEO of Hapbee. "Our rest and recovery signals have become popular among current Hapbee Neckband users. With our Sleepbee Sleep Mask and Sleepbee Mattress Topper, we intend to enhance our wellness platform and the use cases for our signals by providing elegant and optimal form factors. There are no products like these currently on the market."

The Sleepbee Sleep Mask and Sleepbee Mattress Topper proof-of-concept prototypes were displayed at CES 2022, the largest annual tech trade show in the U.S., which received a turnout of 40,000 attendees, including 1800 global media agencies.¹

Both of Hapbee's aforementioned products currently in development are anticipated to play a key role in the Company's multi-pronged strategy of making significant inroads into the massive and growing sleep market.

Target Industry And Strategy

According to a study highlighted by StudyFinds.org² in 2021, "Nearly two-thirds of Americans (62%) struggle to fall asleep each night." The global sleep aids market alone is projected to grow to US$97.31 billion in 2026 from US$71.63 billion in 2021 at a compound annual growth rate of 6.32%.³ Hapbee intends to service this growing marketplace through its proprietary signals and blends, and the future commercial launch of its Sleepbee Sleep Mask and Sleepbee Mattress Topper.

Hapbee anticipates the commercial launch of the Sleepbee Sleep Mask and Sleepbee Mattress Topper will be in Q3 and Q4 2022, respectively. The Company will release more details regarding the development and launch of these products over the coming months.

The provisional and non-provisional patent applications represent the latest additions to Hapbee's intellectual property and they underscore the Company's ongoing growth strategy and initiatives to develop new offerings for the wellness industry. Hapbee intends to continually expand its suite of wellness offerings.

According to a Mckinsey & Company ("M&C") article from April 2021⁴, its consumer survey suggested the wellness market may be underserved. The article stated, "Most consumers around the world report that their personal wellness levels are stagnating or even declining." M&C research also unearthed that wellness levels have fallen behind consumers' hopes and expectations across much of the globe.

Hapbee Neckband Product Sales Growth

Hapbee is also pleased to report that the Company sold a quarterly record 1,751 Hapbee Neckbands in Q4 2021 alone, bringing its total number of products shipped and sold in 2021 to approximately 5,200.

"Although it's early innings for Hapbee in respect to our commercialization initiatives, I am very pleased with the traction we are gaining in the D2C marketplace for our wellness platform," stated Yona Shtern. "I look forward to building on our success as we delve deeper into Hapbee's commercialization strategy for 2022."

The Company intends to expand its marketing outreach throughout 2022 to accelerate sales growth. Hapbee will provide further updates on its initiatives as they develop.
