Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – October 21, 2019) – Aura Health Inc. (“Aura“) (CSE:BUZZ) (OTC: LMLLF) is pleased to announce that it has completed its name change from Aura Health Inc. to Pharmadrug Inc. (“Pharmadrug” or the “Company“) (the “Name Change“). Aura’s shareholders approved the name change at the annual and special meeting of shareholders held on October 3, 2019.
The CUSIP number assigned to the Company’s shares following the name change is: CUSIP 71716W105 (ISIN CA71716W1059). Common shares owned by shareholders of Aura will automatically be adjusted as a result of the Name Change and no further action is required to be taken by shareholders.
Management believes the name change to Pharmadrug better reflects the vision, strategy, and operations of the Company. With the completion of the 80% purchase of Pharmadrug Production GmbH in May, the Company has begun to execute on the distribution and brand creation of medical cannabis in Germany with an eye to expand to other Eurozone markets.
Daniel Cohen, CEO of Pharmadrug, commented, “We are consistently working to further develop our distribution of medical cannabis in Germany. In addition to the continued expansion of volumes from The Netherlands Office of Medicinal Cannabis, we are to launch our own proprietary brand with the introduction of Israeli-sourced supply in the second half of 2020. The company also expects upcoming Canadian supply deals, which could lead to an earlier ramp and brand launch.”
“Pharmadrug is committed to pharmaceutical, natural-based medicines and is already at work to augment our cannabis distribution business with EuGMP-produced CBD lines. Management is also closely monitoring the evolving psychedelic medical space and will seek to enter when the time is appropriate.”
