MONTREAL, May 6, 2020 /CNW/ - Mondias Natural Products Inc. (TSXV: NHP) (the "Company" or "Mondias ") has decided to terminate the acquisition of substantially all the assets of Erablier Inc. that was previously announced on March 19th, 2020.
Under the initial scenario, a series of tasting events and promotional activities were to be carried in spring 2020 to precede the official launch of the Erablier products. With the COVID 19 pandenic still in force, it became apparent that none of the planned events could be successfully carried. The postponement of such activities implied a full year delay and, from a strategic perspective, that project could no longer be viable for Mondias.
While Mondias decided to focus on the commercialization and development of evidence-based botanical products for the healthcare, bio-agriculture and organic markets, Mondias will continue to look for opportunities to add to its products offering.
None of the 1,666,667 common shares of Mondias issuable pursuant to the acquisition of the assets of Érablier Inc., will be issued.
