KAYS’ Oregon Based Psilocybin Treatment Center is on track to be the first of its kind operated by a U.S. Public Company

FT. LAUDERDALE, FL / ACCESSWIRE / October 18, 2023 / Kaya Holdings, Inc., (“KAYS” or the “Company”) (OTCQB:KAYS) announced today that it has closed an additional round of bridge financing targeted to complete KAYS’ planned psilocybin treatment center in Portland, Oregon. The facility will operate under the name “The Sacred Mushroom™.

 

Total funds received from our bridge financing since the first installment was received in June 2023, are $600,000, with no commissions or fees associated with the financing. The funds are not convertible into KAYS stock. $100K of the funds are in the form of short-term financing with repayment due March 15, 2023, and $500K is due to be repaid from 10% of KAYS’ revenues quarterly, with any unpaid balance due June 30, 2025.

 

View from The Sacred Mushroom™ – Mount Hood can be seen above the Portland, Oregon skyline from our 7th-floor facility.

We believe that KAYS is presently the only U.S. public company engaged in securing an Oregon Health Authority (“OHA”) license to open a psilocybin treatment center, aiming to create a setting that is unmatched by any other facility and providing access to relief from treatment-resistant mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, additions, and eating disorders.

 

Approximately every 40 seconds someone in the world commits suicide.Psilocybin may soon be available as a mainstream medical treatment for treatment-resistant depression (TRD) and other mental health diseases, potentially providing a new lease on lifefor millions worldwide for whom current medications do not work.

Our Treatment Model
A recently published report on psilocybin treatment prices in Oregon showed that Initial prices for one facility range from $300 for a group microdose session to $3,500 for an individual high-dose session, with another facility pricing first-time full-dose treatments at $15,000 (these prices do not include the cost of the psilocybin, which can run from $300 to $500).

 

KAYS expects its planned model facility to offer a superior setting, broader activity and treatment options, integrated cultivation and processing, and accessible pricing, thereby enabling us to deliver a superior treatment experience at a much lower price than the competition, while still achieving profitability.

 

The Sacred Mushroom™ has approximately 11,000 sq ft. and will provide visitors with access to our microdosing café, private treatment rooms and group session areas, and activity zones with yoga, listening stations, journaling chairs, and art expression for distinctive, effective, and positive psilocybin treatments.

 

Timeline
KAYS expects to complete its initial license application within the next 30 days, and subject to OHA approval, intends to bring the facility online within 90 days. KAYS plans to operate The Sacred Mushroom™ as part of its Fifth Dimension Therapeutics, Inc. subsidiary (“FDT”), which also plans to work cooperatively with select pharmaceutical companies to maximize the curative potential of psilocybin.

In 2014 KAYS became the first US public company to own and operate a medical cannabis dispensary (in Portland, Oregon).

Fifth Dimension Therapeutics, Inc. serves as the Company’s operating branch in the psychedelic treatment sector, including operation of mushroom cultivation facilities and The Scared Mushroom™ treatment centers.
