Xanthic Drinks and Powders to Be Manufactured and Distributed in California by Nutritional High

TORONTO, May 07, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Xanthic Biopharma Inc. (formerly Aurquest Resources Inc.) ("Xanthic") (CSE:xTHC) and Nutritional High International Inc. (“Nutritional High”) (CSE:EAT) (OTCQB:SPLIF) are pleased to announce they have entered into a binding Letter of Intent (“LOI”) for the production and distribution of Xanthic branded water soluble cannabis-infused powders in California.

Nutritional High has built a comprehensive integrated organization in California delivering plant to dispensary continuity. Most recently, Nutritional High announced the acquisition of 100% of Pasa Verde, LLC (“Pasa Verde”), a leading cannabis extraction and toll processing facility in Sacramento, California. Previously, Nutritional High acquired a 100% interest in Calyx Brands Inc. (“Calyx”), a leading distributor of cannabis products throughout California. 

Xanthic will partner with Nutritional High’s California subsidiaries Pasa Verde and Calyx to distribute Xanthic’s patent pending water soluble cannabis-infused powder products such as its Hydration, Energy, Rescue and Recovery drinks. According to BDS Analytics, the cannabis beverage market grew 23% between January and October 2017 across California, Colorado, Washington, and Oregon, and this robust growth trend is expected to persist in the near future.

Jim Frazier, CEO of Nutritional High, commented, “We are very pleased to announce our partnership with Xanthic and look forward to rolling out product offerings in California going forward. As a company, we strive to provide our targeted markets with high-quality, unique value-added products and we believe Xanthic’s portfolio fits within this mandate.”

Tim Moore, CEO of Xanthic, also commented, “The Xanthic team is thrilled to advance our strategic relationship with Nutritional High in California. By utilizing the Nutritional High’s vertically integrated network, Xanthic will be able to exploit the significant market opportunity represented by the state of California. This new agreement provides value to current and future shareholders by enabling Xanthic’s launch in an important recreational and medical cannabis market.”
