Agreement Provides Capital of $2 Million
Orem, Utah, Feb. 13, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NewBridge Global Ventures, Inc. (“NewBridge” or the “Company”), (OTCQB: NBGV), a company focused on the emerging and dynamic legal and regulated cannabis industry, announced today that it has entered into an Equity Financing Agreement with GHS Investments, LLC (“GHS”), a New York based, private equity fund.
The agreement calls for the Company to file a registration statement with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the sale of common shares that may be issued to GHS under the terms of the Equity Financing Agreement. After the SEC has declared the registration statement effective, the Company has the right, at its sole discretion and over a period of two years, to sell up to $2,000,000 of common stock to GHS under the terms set forth in the Equity Financing Agreement.
Proceeds from the investment will be used for growth capital and to fund the Company’s focused roll-up strategy to acquire industry leading companies in the education, ancillary support, finance and distribution verticals in the regulated cannabis industry.
“The capital from GHS is an important milestone for Newbridge Global Ventures, providing the foundation for growth that we foresee. NewBridge provides an invaluable bridge between cannabis companies that need growth capital and operational support, and the investment community, and we now have a secure platform to support our plans,” said Mark Mersman, Chief Executive Officer of NewBridge. “GHS has broad experience in the cannabis space and will be a great partner. We’re gratified that they recognize that our Company, and the services we provide, are of great value to the legal cannabis industry and that we are well positioned for growth.”
