Gabriella’s Kitchen Inc. (“GABY” or the “Company”) (CSE: GABY), an innovative and leading-edge cannabis wellness company, is pleased to report the successful closing of The Oil Plant, Inc. (“TOP”) acquisition and its associated cannabis licenses (the “Transaction“), which was previously announced on September 13, 2018.  Under the terms of the Transaction, TOP shareholders will receive GABY common shares as consideration for their holdings on an earn-out basis, with GABY issuing up to US$2.1 million in share consideration at the prevailing market price, calculated and paid quarterly, subject to certain performance targets being met.  Wildhorse Capital Partners acted as a strategic advisor to the Company in completing the Transaction.

Through the Transaction, GABY has secured a Type-6 non-volatile manufacturing license and a cannabis extraction and infusion facility in the State of California.  In addition, GABY will also be able to leverage a non-exclusive license held by TOP to access an extensive database of formulations and other associated health attributes to create proprietary and white-label products that offer a wide range of health benefits, which is expected to facilitate GABY’s continued product development.  In concert with the Transaction, Mara Gordon, the founder of TOP and a thought-leader in the industry, joined GABY in the role of Chief Research Officer.

This Transaction augments GABY’s existing distribution and manufacturing infrastructure and gives the Company a strong foundation from which to continue building an infused product cannabis business targeting the extensive wellness market in the United States.  With this Transaction, GABY has been transformed into one of the only publicly-listed, pure play cannabis wellness companies listed on the CSE.

About Gabriella’s Kitchen

Italian sisters Margot and Gabriella co-founded Gabriella’s Kitchen to bring high quality, delicious, healthy superfoods to the market.

Although Gabriella ultimately passed away from the illness, she lived exponentially longer than doctors predicted. Her memory and passion live on through GABY’s mission: to empower people to live healthy lives without compromise.
