LONDON and DUBLIN, May 31, 2022 /CNW/ - Poko Innovations Inc. (formerly Brunswick Resources Inc.) ("Poko" or the "Company") (CSE: POKO), an award-winning UK-based collection of CBD-focused companies that bring innovative, inspiring solutions to the CBD industry through the Company's leading platforms which, when working together, form a complete ecosystem, today announced that the Company has been in discussions with large department stores and leading chain pharmacies in the EU. "Poko has been focusing on introducing our brands to new retail channels as well as online and bricks and mortar chains," David Hughes, President and CEO said. "Poko recently is seeing an upswing in interest by commercial buyers worldwide with increased interest in all our new products," Hughes continued. "We have seen an increase in interest in our products at the trade shows we have attended, and we are also focused on closing a number of agreements."

"In March we announced that the United Kingdom's FSA department published an approved list of CBD products and Poko received approval on 44 products. The update to the FSA Novel Food Applications means Poko is one of the few selected companies given permission to sell its products throughout the United Kingdom," Hughes stated. "This approval from the Novel Food Regulation is extremely important for buyers who now feel secure in selling our products. In addition, Poko has been going through a number of test markets with large potential customers. The initial results have been very gratifying and we are now in negotiations for larger orders," Hughes noted. "The global supply issue has affected our business, however we have been working with suppliers and we believe that by the end of the second quarter there will be no further disruptions."

Poko also announces that it has filed restated interim financial statements for the three month period ended September 30, 2021 ("Q1") and for the six month period ended December 31, 2021 ("Q2") (collectively, the "Restated Interim Financial Statements").The Restated Interim Financial Statements were necessary because management determined corrections were required for the application of IFRS-3 in the accounting for the reverse take-over transaction. Corrections also were made to the valuation of the shares issued to extinguish the debts under the provisions of IFRS-2, and to the valuation of the stock options issued under the Black Sholes option pricing model. The following table reflects the changes.

The Company's interim financial statements for Q1 and Q2 have been restated to reflect the above changes and were filed under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com on May 30, 2022. The Restated Interim Financial Statements replace and supersede the respective previously filed interim financial statements for Q1 and Q2. Such previously filed interim financial statements should be disregarded.
