Simply Better Brands Announces Its PureKana Wellness Brand Expands Portfolio Into the Weight Loss Category

19 May 2022

Simply Better Brands Corp. ("SBBC" or the "Company") (TSX Venture: SBBC) (OTCQB: PKANF) is pleased to announce its entry into the weight loss category with a PureKana Keto Gummy. According to Allied Market Research, the weight loss category currently exceeds $192B with a 2021-2027 estimated CAGR of 7%.1 The grape-flavored gummy contains beta-hydroxybutrate (BHB) salts and is available in both a 20 and 30 ct. offering. Per the National Institute of Health (NIH), “Supplementing with BHB salts may induce a state of temporary ketosis without any undesirable side affects, thereby promoting the benefits of ketosis and minimizing the adherence requirements to a ketogenic diet.”

Kathy Casey, CEO of SBBC said, “Our mission at PureKana is to authentically democratize wellness every day, while adhering to our core values of safety, efficacy, and transparency. As our innovation strategy follows the consumer, we recognize weight management as foundational to overall health. We are excited to broaden our portfolio of wellness solutions for so many on their journey to maintain or improve their quality of life. We expect the growth opportunity in weight loss product category could drive increased PureKana sales starting in the second half of 2022.” In addition to supporting consumers in weight loss, PureKana currently has active ingredient offerings in the consumer need states of sleep, energy, pain, immunity, recreation, and calm.

SBBC also announces today that it has paid the first of two quarterly payments to Opensky Opportunities Fund Ltd. (the "Advisor") for services rendered pursuant to the previously-announced advisory agreement (the "Agreement") dated February 16, 2022, as amended on May 16, 2022. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company has agreed to pay the first of two payments in the aggregate amount of CAD$300,000 through the issuance of 89,020 Common Shares at a deemed price of CAD$3.37.
