SASKATOON, Saskatchewan, April 21, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MustGrow Biologics Corp. (CSE: MGRO, OTC: MGROF, FRA: 0C0) ("MustGrow" or the "Company") announces that it has filed a final short form base shelf prospectus (the "Shelf Prospectus") with securities regulatory authorities in each province of Canada.
"The Shelf Prospectus will provide us with greater flexibility to access capital on an expedited basis if and when required during the 25 month period it is expected to be effective," said Corey Giasson, President and Chief Executive Officer of MustGrow.

The Shelf Prospectus enables the Company to offer common shares, warrants, units, debt securities, subscription receipts or any combination thereof for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $40 million during the 25 month period the Shelf Prospectus is effective.
If the Company proceeds with an offering of securities under the Shelf Prospectus, the specific terms, the proposed use of proceeds and other matters related to such offering will be set out in a prospectus supplement, which will be filed with all applicable Canadian securities regulatory authorities. The Company may also use the Shelf Prospectus in connection with an "at-the-market distribution" in accordance with applicable securities laws, which would permit securities to be sold on behalf of the Company through the Canadian Securities Exchange (or other applicable stock exchange) as further described in the applicable prospectus supplement. To date, no agreement has been entered into with respect to such a distribution.
The Shelf Prospectus can be found under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
