Wellness Lifestyles Inc. General Business Update & Advisory Agreement Share Issuance
Vancouver, B.C. – Wellness Lifestyles Inc. (TSX.V: WELL) (the “Company” or “WELL”), is a company focused on mergers and acquisitions within the Health and Wellness sectors.
Following the successful completion of its recent Fundamental Acquisition (June 15th, 2017), the Company’s Business Development team has been extensively reviewing further accretive merger and acquisition opportunities.
This review has led the Company to begin seeking acquisition targets in the areas of family practice medical clinics and health focused digital technologies within Canada and the United States.
As a result, the Company has initiated discussions with its previously announced (May 15th, 2017) Advisory Agreement group, Gravitas Securities Inc., regarding capital investment requirements.
“We are very pleased to have identified the focus for our next accretive acquisitions, and now begin the work to lock-down specific target companies” said Alex Read, CEO of the Company. “The response to our vision for Wellness Lifestyles Inc has been very encouraging and we look forward to continuing our efforts to enhance shareholder value”.
The Company which owns the businesses of Canada Yoga Inc. and Shakti Yoga Apparel LLC intends to carry on both businesses and to conduct additional non-yoga related acquisitions in the health and wellness space with a view to developing a synergistic portfolio of brands, products, and businesses that drive maximum shareholder value. The directors of the Company have extensive and highly successful track records on merger and acquisition transactions.
The Company does not have a defined timeline for the exploration of these possible strategic acquisitions and cannot provide any assurance whether or when an acquisition will be announced.
