Exactus, Inc. Purchases Remaining Interest in 2019 Crop

Secures Full Ownership Rights to 2019 Oregon Harvest


DELRAY BEACH, Fla., Oct. 24, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Exactus, Inc. (OTCQB:EXDI) (the “Company”), a farmer and manufacturer of hemp-derived phytocannabinoid products, today announced that it has acquired the remaining 49.9% portion of the Exactus One World rights to distribution for the ongoing 2019 harvest. 

“Previously, the Company owned a 50.1% interest in the net profits from this year’s harvest”, said Emiliano Aloi.  “With this purchase we have effectively doubled our returns from the sale of flower, biomass and ingredients which will take us well into 2020.” 

As previously reported, Exactus expects to realize approximately 30,000 pounds of high-quality top flower for sale in bulk, as smokable products, in pre-rolls and buds and will now receive 100% of the net proceeds from sales. 

Exactus maintains approximately 225 acres of farms located in southwest Oregon and is harvesting 5 strains of CBD rich plants including Suver Haze®, Special Sauce, Lifter, Hawaiian Haze®, and Sour Space Candy grown from Crawford Brothers (Oregon CBD) seeds that are immediately available for delivery to customers with full panel COA testing.  Orders can be placed online at www.exactushemp.com.

About Exactus:
Exactus Inc. is dedicated to introducing hemp-derived phytocannabinoid products into mainstream consumer markets. The Company has made investments in farming and has over 200 acres of CBD-rich hemp in Southwest Oregon. The Company is introducing a range of consumer brands, such as Green Goddess Extracts, Phenologie, Paradise CBD and Exactus. Hemp is a legal type of cannabis plant containing less than 0.3% THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which is the psychoactive component of the cannabis plant. After 40 years of prohibition, the Agricultural Improvement Act of 2018, known as the 2018 Farm Bill, legalized hemp at the federal level. Hemp production will be regulated by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the states. As a result, in 2019 hemp was generally removed from the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) and enforcement by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).
