$SPTY Specificity Adds AI-Enabled Audience Building Tool by Partnering with AImplify


https://www.accesswire.com/788206/specificity-adds-ai-enabled-audience-building-tool-by-partnering-with-aimplify

Expects to Launch New AI Tool in Q1 2024

TAMPA, FL / ACCESSWIRE / September 28, 2023 / Specificity Inc. (OTCQB:SPTY) (the "Company"), a full-service digital marketing firm that delivers cutting-edge marketing solutions, is pleased to announce its partnership with AImplify, a cutting-edge AI-powered solution, to offer an AI-enabled audience building tool for its clients.

AImplify is a cutting-edge AI-powered solution that revolutionizes the way companies find and communicate with potential leads. With their software, you can quickly and easily identify prospects that match your ideal customer profile and automatically create personalized emails tailored to each lead. For additional information on AImplify, please visit: www.aimplifysales.com

Jason Wood, Chief Executive Officer of Specificity, commented, "This partnership extends far beyond their current solution because their AI programming capabilities will allow us to infuse our technology and build upon that an AI-enabled audience building tool. This tool will leverage real-time AI to drive decisions for marketers in terms of when and where to place ad spend resulting in far better results and more importantly, far better ROI. AI will help us arrive at audience identification questions, segmentation questions and will expedite the testing of creative and messaging. There is a much smarter play here and AI can get us there now without cannibalizing consumer privacy and we're going to get it done. We look forward to launching our new AI tool in the first quarter of 2024."

It has long been felt that marketers should be able to better understand who actually cares about their brand and products (or is likely to) in order to better engage them and offer those people products and services they care about. The data is there but Big Tech has kept it under lock and key because better defined campaigns directly decrease the volume of impressions it takes to drive conversions, brand awareness and smarter marketing. The entire industry derives more revenue when more impressions are served regardless of how sloppy the audience buildout is and how much of the ad spend is wasted on the wrong audiences. Diluted targeting selects only benefit big tech, not the marketer and certainly not the consumer under a constant barrage of advertising that isn't at all relevant to them. This partnership will be the first of its kind step towards really solving the issue and delivering better results for everyone.

$CBDW 1606 announces launch of ChatCBD, a revolutionary AI chatbot to enhance customer experiences


https://newsdirect.com/news/1606-announces-launch-of-chatcbd-a-revolutionary-ai-chatbot-to-enhance-customer-experiences-703781468

ChatCBD has been custom-tailored to provide comprehensive responses to customer inquiries related to CBD and offer product recommendations from the range of retail brands available through Cool Blue Distribution, a leading CBD distributor in the United States.

$PNNX Pennexx's Your Social Offers Has Licensed 106 Zip Codes Including 3 Million People, and Kickstarts Its Key Growth Strategy

https://www.accesswire.com/788355/pennexxs-your-social-offers-has-licensed-106-zip-codes-including-3-million-people-and-kickstarts-its-key-growth-strategy

PHILADELPHIA, PA / ACCESSWIRE / September 28, 2023 / Pennexx Foods (OTC PINK:PNNX) A pivotal component of Pennexx's Your Social Offers strategy involves forging strategic alliances with sales organizations and marketing firms. This collaborative approach leverages our advanced dashboard technology to amplify merchant signups, all without the need for an exclusively internal sales force.

By joining forces with seasoned sales organizations, Pennexx gains access to accelerated growth, taps into the expertise of external sales teams, and harnesses existing relationships to promote our products, eliminating the need to cultivate these channels from the ground up.

This diversification of sales is designed to increase the return to our valued shareholders to create a robust yield on their investments.

"I am thrilled to announce this significant milestone for Pennexx's Your Social Offers. Licensing 106 zip codes marks a pivotal step in our growth strategy, and it speaks volumes about the value our platform brings to marketers. Our aim to revolutionize the way merchants manage their marketing is coming into view, thereby creating substantial value for our shareholders. This is just the beginning of an exciting journey, and I'm confident that our strategic alliances will continue to drive success and innovation." - Vincent Risalvato, CEO of Pennexx's Your Social Offers

Using consumer data YSO is able to create a profile of consumers within each zip code. This data includes statistics such as the Average Gross Income of individuals, and the demographics of the various households.

Armed with this invaluable information, a Your Social Offers licensee can provide their merchants with highly targeted and exceptionally effective marketing strategies.

Your Social Offers not only assists licensees in pinpointing potential merchants through merchant data but also aids them in helping direct their merchant's efforts towards consumers.

This synergy results in a comprehensive, turnkey marketing strategy that encompasses both business-to-business and business-to-consumer dimensions.

Every licensee gains direct access to deploy the Your Social Offers system, either directly or through a white-labeling approach, to reach merchants within their licensed zip codes.

This strategy bears a resemblance to a franchise model, where the company grants a license for the use of our product within a specific zip code, equipping the licensee with the necessary tools to succeed as well as a highly lucrative reoccurring revenue split.

Other key Territories are under negotiation, and the company is targeting to have key zip codes licensed by year-end.

$AURI AURI signs The Champ, and Launches New Products Line

https://www.accesswire.com/787740/auri-signs-the-champ-and-launches-new-products-line

DALLAS, TX / ACCESSWIRE / September 27, 2023 / Auri Inc. (OTC PINK:AURI) ("AURI") (the "Company") is proud to announce today the signing of Heavyweight World Champion, Riddick Bowe.

Auri Inc. is launching "The Champ" line of consumable products featuring CBD and THC Delta 9 infused Gummies, Energy Drinks, Vitamin Water and a host of other Nutraceutical products. These products are designed to enhance the wellness and health of the consumer, while providing enjoyment and a feeling of well-being.

Riddick Lamont Bowe (born August 10, 1967) is an American former professional boxer who competed between 1989 and 2008. He held the undisputed world heavyweight championship in 1992, and won the super heavyweight silver medal at the 1988 Summer Olympics. After turning professional in 1989, Bowe went on to become a two-time world heavyweight champion. In 1992 he became the undisputed heavyweight champion by winning the World Boxing Association (WBA), World Boxing Council (WBC) and International Boxing Federation (IBF) titles by defeating then-unbeaten former undisputed cruiserweight champion Evander Holyfield. That same year, Bowe was named Fighter of the Year by The Ring magazine and the Boxing Writers' Association of America. (According to Wikipedia)

Auri Inc., (AURI) will use a line of vertically integrated companies to provide inventories and services for its line of products. SUTI Inc., (SUTI) will supply the main ingredients such as CBD oil and Delta 9, while our own distribution group RJR, will use its distribution chain to sell and fulfill the "Champ Line".

RECENTLY, THE COMPANY ANNOUNCED SEVERAL UPDATES:

Auri Inc. has positioned this change to occur right in time for our impending manufacturing facility acquisition we have been working on for several months.

The company will be keeping the current CEO Edward Vakser to Chairman and secretary. As the company expands, we will be bringing on more talented board members to help bring AURI to its goal of uplifting NASDAQ.

The new incoming CEO Jim Amendola goes on to say: "I am excited to be part of this big change for Auri Inc. I am ready to help Auri Inc. go to the next level. With all the manufacturing and Oil experience I bring to the table, I am excited to maximize company value for all prospective and current shareholders."

"I am ready to strategically set AURI and other companies to the next level. Bringing over 20 plus years of logistics and manufacturing. While implementing several methodologies that will positively be affecting the organizational profitability"

Recently, the company posted updates:

The management is excited to report that several milestones of the business development has been achieved. Several years ago, the company set up a very optimistic, and aggressive set of goals. The plan was to have Auri Inc., as the "tip of the spear" Holding company, that would own all other assets and companies that the company would add and roll-up in order to create a great company and a perfect candidate for NASDAQ. The gamble definitely paid off, since now FINRA assigned OTC Markets as the new and exclusive trading platform for all cryptocurrencies. Auri Inc. now continues to assemble a strong portfolio of public and private companies, as well as all of their corresponding cryptocurrencies and NFT assets.

The management recently completed several acquisitions and signed several more to be acquired in the following several weeks. Recently, Auri Inc. acquired SutimCo International Inc., and has BDGR and its parent company PRPM under contract. Next, the company will progress with adding value-based companies and vendors. This quarter, Auri Inc., also plans to add vertically integrated complete companies by also signing PBHG and UITA.

Dividend Information

The company recently posted a ruling given to OTC markets by FINRA regarding trading rights to OTC Markets for digital currencies.

The company will have an ex-dividend date of October 02, 2023.

This will also provide a built-in retail marketplace for Sibannac's products in Canada at no additional cost.

Further disclosures will be made as the deal advances toward a definitive agreement after the diligence period.

$DGWR Shareholder Update: DEEP GREEN Seeing Growth Driven by $2M Nashville Asbestos Project and Strategic Expansion

https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2023/09/26/2749501/0/en/Shareholder-Update-DEEP-GREEN-Seeing-Growth-Driven-by-2M-Nashville-Asbestos-Project-and-Strategic-Expansion.html

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DEEP GREEN Waste & Recycling Inc. (OTC: DGWR) is pleased to provide shareholders with an update on the progress achieved by our Lyell Environmental Services subsidiary on a major asbestos abatement project, DEEP GREEN's strong financial performance over the past two quarters, and our outlook for continued growth.

"Thanks to Lyell's expertise and hard work, we are on target and under budget on a $2 million asbestos removal contract at Vanderbilt University Medical Center's downtown medical campus in Nashville," commented David Bradford, President of DEEP GREEN. "Additionally, DEEP GREEN continues to deliver profitable growth driven by our strategic expansion efforts."

Now over 35% completed, Lyell has efficiently executed the first phases of asbestos removal and disposal while adhering to strict safety protocols to protect hospital operations and personnel. The safe removal of asbestos requires extensive planning and meticulous execution using specialized equipment and techniques.

A standard asbestos abatement project will involve the following key phases and tasks:

Site Evaluation and Planning - Thoroughly survey the site to identify all asbestos-containing materials.
Site Preparation - Seal off the work area and set up decontamination facilities.
Asbestos Removal - Carefully mist asbestos materials with amended water or removal encapsulant.
Packaging and Waste Handling - Double bag all asbestos wastes in leak-tight containers.
Decontamination - Thoroughly clean work area and equipment including wiping, wet cleaning, HEPA vacuuming.
Air Monitoring and Clearance - Conduct extensive air testing and visual inspections.
Waste Transport and Disposal - Transport and dispose of all asbestos waste in compliance with regulations. Maintain chain-of-custody documentation.

Strict controls and oversight are required throughout the process to protect workers, the public, and the environment. Proper asbestos abatement is complex, requiring specialized workers and vetted contractors with extensive training and experience.

Lyell was selected from over 180 accredited remediation firms to undertake this critical six-month asbestos abatement project prior to demolition of a large medical complex building at Vanderbilt. Lyell was chosen due to their long track record and extensive experience in hazardous waste handling.

DEEP GREEN acquired Lyell Environmental Services in 2021 to augment its waste management capabilities. This project demonstrates how Lyell has quickly become an impactful part of DEEP GREEN's integrated services platform.

DEEP GREEN provides sustainable waste and recycling services to commercial clients, now augmented by full-service remediation capabilities in asbestos, lead, mold and more. The company will continue pursuing strategic opportunities to broaden its portfolio of environmental services and expand nationally.

"As a leading, vertically integrated waste management and remediation provider, DEEP GREEN is well-positioned to capitalize on booming demand for eco-friendly and compliant solutions to pressing environmental challenges faced by our customers," said Bill Edmonds, Chairman of DEEP GREEN. "We look forward to creating additional value for shareholders as we fulfill our ambition to be the recognized national leader in this space."

$CBDW 1606 Corp. Partners with Cool Blue To Launch ChatCBD, a New AI Customer Experience

https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/1606-corp-partners-with-cool-blue-to-launch-chatcbd-a-new-ai-customer-experience-301938314.html

SEATTLE, Sept. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- 1606 Corp. (OTC Pink: CBDW) ("1606" or the "Company") is excited to announce an upcoming launch of ChatCBD, the Company's revolutionary AI chatbot designed to transform customer experiences. This conversational e-commerce tool will initially be installed in partnership with Cool Blue Distribution. Under this agreement, 1606 will install its proprietary AI merchandizing ChatBot on Coll Blue's website. ChatCBD has been specifically designed to answer customer questions about CBD and make product recommendations from retail brands currently being offered by Cool Blue Distribution which is a top CBD distributor in the U.S. (For a full list of retailers see www.CoolBlueDist.com).

This merchandizing AI provides 1606 with new channels of revenue from licensing, product sales, payment processing and more. Conversational e-commerce technology personified by 1606's new merchandising Chatbot opens the door for the Company to enter bigger markets such as nutraceuticals, cosmetics, and supplements to name a few.

One of the largest problems in online sales of CBD products, as expressed by real CBD users, is that as consumers they are inundated with hundreds of product choices at a time resulting in a lack of understanding due to the unregulated status of the CBD industry. More often than not, this results in cart abandonment, lost sales, and a lack of trust in the industry. CBD customers are comfortable discussing their CBD uses, dosages, and product type with a knowledgeable CBD expert more typically found in a dedicated CBD retail location (CBD Shops). ChatCBD doubles as an in-store resource for CBD retailers allowing employees to advise and educate at a scale previously unavailable to the industry. When it comes to CBD, online sales remain the dominant distribution channel, accounting for 66% of overall sales according to American Marijuana.Org, and 1606, in partnership with Cool Blue, will aim to blend the best brick-and-mortar CBD customer service and online product selection with the use of the new AI ChatBot, ChatCBD.

Key Features of ChatCBD:

Natural Language Processing (NLP): ChatCBD leverages state-of-the-art NLP technology, enabling her to understand and respond to customer queries with human-like precision and comprehension.
24/7 Availability: ChatCBD is always available to assist customers, ensuring round-the-clock support and resolving issues promptly, even outside of regular business hours.
Seamless Integration: ChatCBD seamlessly integrates with existing customer support systems, allowing businesses to enhance their services without disrupting their current workflows.
Personalized Engagement: ChatCBD can personalize interactions by analyzing customer data, preferences, and behavior patterns, delivering tailored solutions and recommendations.
Multi-Platform Compatibility: ChatCBD can be deployed across various digital platforms, including websites, social media, and messaging apps, providing a consistent and accessible customer experience.
Scalability: ChatCBD capabilities can scale with your business, adapting to increased customer demands without compromising on performance.
Data Analytics: ChatCBD collects and analyzes customer interaction data to provide valuable insights, enabling businesses to make informed decisions and optimize their services.
The CEO of 1606 Corp., Greg Lambrecht, expressed enthusiasm about the launch, stating, "ChatCBD marks a significant milestone in our commitment to empowering businesses with AI technology. We believe that ChatCBD advanced AI capabilities will revolutionize how companies engage with their customers, fostering loyalty and trust in an increasingly competitive marketplace."

Early adopters of ChatCBD will experience substantial improvements in customer satisfaction, reduced response times, and increased efficiency in their customer service operations. As CBD businesses continue to adapt to evolving consumer expectations, ChatCBD stands as a powerful tool for delivering exceptional customer experiences.

To learn more about ChatCBD and how 1606 Corp. can help your business leverage this groundbreaking AI chatbot, please visit www.CBDW.ai or contact our head of business development, Austen Lambrecht at austen@1606corp.com.

Why ChatCBD and why now? A Forbes Health Survey of 2,000 U.S. adults conducted by OnePoll found 60% of respondents have tried a CBD product and believe it offers some medicinal benefits. According to a 2018 cross-sectional survey of over 2,400 people published in Cannabis and Cannabinoid Research, almost 62% of CBD users report using the cannabinoid to treat a medical condition specifically. The top three medical conditions treated with CBD include pain, anxiety and depression according to Forbes.

The company is currently involved in the development of its unique nasal spray, and in fact, the testing of the product is being conducted by Mississippi State University. The crux of the treatment lies in the suppression of the inflammatory neurotransmitters and cytokines that originate as a consequence of TBI.

Hannover House, Inc. (OTC: HHSE) has finalized the placement of ten films from the company's library with ROKU, for release into the U.K. and Ireland. The sale was initiated during the Cannes market in May and finally closed this week.



Titles licensed under the agreement include "Savage Land," "Future Shock," "Samurai: The Last Warrior" and seven others. ROKU is looking at over one hundred additional titles from the Hannover House library for possible licensing into these two territories in the future.


"This is great news for our program suppliers and shareholders," said Desiree Garnier, president of the Hannover House MyFlix division. "As video-on-demand outlets continue to expand worldwide, the international sales and licensing rights within the Hannover House library will see significantly greater monetization over the years," she concluded.

$LEON Leone Asset Management’s Subsidiary JP Anderson Signs MOU

$HALB Halberd and Athena GTX Collaborate on Advanced Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Monitoring and Applications for Government Contracts

https://www.accesswire.com/785790/halberd-and-athena-gtx-collaborate-on-advanced-traumatic-brain-injury-tbi-monitoring-and-applications-for-government-contracts

JACKSON CENTER, PA / ACCESSWIRE / September 20, 2023 / Halberd Corporation (OTC PINK:HALB) and Athena GTX, Inc, of Johnston, Iowa commenced collaboration on critical development of submissions for government contracts seeking proposals for the detection and treatment of traumatic brain injury (TBI). The initial focus will be on accelerating and fine-tuning Halberd's proprietary nasal spray for suppressing the effects of traumatic brain injury (TBI). In addition, consistent with the government request, this will include rapid detection and assessment technologies from Athena as a point of injury (POI) treatment for use by both the military, civilian first responders and contact sports participants.

Halberd's nasal spray treatment is designed to suppress the detrimental cascading generation of excess inflammatory cytokines and neurotransmitters which result from progressive traumatic brain injury. Currently, no other product on the market addresses this need with a combination of 1.) a monoclonal antibody against glutamate, thereby decreasing extracellular glutamate (decreasing the excitatory neurotransmitter), 2.) a paranasal insulin counteracting hyperglycolosis and hyperkalemia allowing cerebral blood flow to keep up with brain oxygen demands after TBI, and 3.) a neurosteroid as a positive allosteric modulator, thereby slowing and inhibiting the binding of ligands to orthosteric binding sites. This acts to decrease metabolic demands, lowers intercranial pressure (ICP) and significantly decreases inflammation.

The collaboration plan is to deploy the novel product as a simple nasal spray as a custom formulation allowing for easy and rapid administration in emergency situations, making it particularly valuable for use by military warfighters in theatre and contact sports participants. The research data to date are demonstrating the synergistic effectiveness of this approach (combo of neuroexcitation, hypermetabolism and inflammation/edema mitigations) in animals. In ongoing preclinical studies with IRB-approved protocols, we are showing exciting early data on efficacy in a rat model and soon will begin sheep studies at Mississippi State University. Results in test animals at zero, three, six and fourteen days after induced TBI impact have produced consistent reductions of two key biomarkers of TBI; a 19% reduction in Neuron Specific Enolase (NSE) and a 51% reduction in levels of Glial Fibrillary Acid Protein (GFAP).

NSE is a biomarker of neuronal damage that has been shown to be a predictor of the ultimate outcome of TBI, and GFAP is an indicator of the induction of neuroinflammation and is also an indicator of neurodegeneration associated with Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease, epileptic seizures, etc. Excess quantities of these elements have been linked to permanent changes in the brain associated with not only cognitive dysfunction, but potentially PTSD, suicide ideation, and other neurodegenerative diseases. This link to these other disease states is due to the commonality of the antigens demonstrably associated thereto.

Athena has a long history of government contracting on innovative solutions, and designing and developing miniature monitoring devices for these markets with numerous FDA-cleared devices now on the market for target markets throughout the world.

This partnership represents a significant step towards addressing the long-term health implications associated with traumatic brain injury. By harnessing the power of innovative medical solutions, Halberd and Athena aim to enhance the quality of life for those who have sustained traumatic brain injury.

Stable Revenues and Improving Gross Margin and Net Profits

Expanding Distribution, Revised PMI Licensing Agreement and More Favorable Regulatory Environment Expected to Serve as Strong Tailwinds for Improving Financial Performance

GRANT-VALKARIA, Fla., Sept. 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kaival Brands Innovations Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: KAVL) ("Kaival Brands," the "Company," or "we"), the exclusive U.S. distributor of all products manufactured by Bidi Vapor, LLC ("Bidi Vapor"), including the BIDI® Stick, which are intended for adults 21 and over, today announced its financial results for the fiscal 2023 third quarter ended July 31, 2023.

Recent Business Highlights

Added more than 1,500 store locations to Circle K rollout bringing the total locations to more than 2,700 in the South Atlantic and Midwest regions
Shipped an initial order of BIDI® Sticks to over 900 Kwik Trip and Mapco locations
Amended agreement with Phillip Morris International (PMI) for distribution of Bidi Vapor products internationally, simplifying payment structure thereby reducing costs and accelerating royalty payments. On September 8, 2023, the Company received both a net reconciliation payment from PMI of approximately $135,000 pursuant to this amendment, and also received a royalty payment earned from July 1, 2023 through July 31, 2023, in the amount of approximately $121,000
Appointed Thomas J. Metzler to the role of Chief Financial Officer
Promoted Eric Mosser to the role of Chief Executive Officer
Promoted Stephen Sheriff to role of Chief Operating Officer
Management Comments

Eric Mosser, Chief Executive Officer and President of Kaival Brands, stated, “We are increasingly encouraged by the renewed BIDI® Stick interest and order flow from our distribution partners and increased enforcement of compliance regulations by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Over the past several months, we have increased placements with several large-scale C-store brands including Kwik Trip and Circle K, both of which are focused on ID-verification and youth-access prevention, and engaged a prominent national broker and one of the largest retail distributors in the U.S. We are pushing distribution into more channels and expect the impact will be evident in our financial results in the coming periods. Sales in September are on pace to double sales in August, a solid proof point of the momentum that is building.

“We recently renegotiated the licensing agreement with PMI in light of regulation changes in international markets and given the lessons learned during the first year of the agreement. Importantly, the revised agreement simplifies the payment terms, provides us with incremental cost savings and improves visibility into our future revenue and cash flows. We anticipate an acceleration of royalty payments, which will also serve as a catalyst for improving financial performance in the coming periods.”

Financial Results for Fiscal Third Quarter 2023

Revenues: Revenues for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 were $3.6 million, compared to $3.8 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year. Revenues were flat in the third quarter of 2023, primarily due to credits/discounts/rebates issued to customers. The Company does not anticipate this trend to continue as renewed distribution ramps up and sales of non-tobacco flavored BIDI® Sticks increase, and even more so now that the PMTA denial order has been vacated by the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, which allows it to continue marketing and selling BIDI ® Sticks, subject to the FDA’s enforcement discretion.

Cost of Revenue, Net, and Gross Profit: Gross profit in the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 was $1.3 million, or 36.3% of revenues, net, compared to approximately $442,000 gross profit, or 11.5% of revenues, net, for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022. Total cost of revenue, net was $2.3 million, or 63.7% of revenue, net for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023, compared to $3.4 million, or 88.5% of revenue, net for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by improved cost per sticks during the third quarter of fiscal year 2023.

Operating Expenses: Total operating expenses were $3.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023, compared to $4.3 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022. For the third quarter of fiscal year 2023, operating expenses consisted of advertising and promotion fees of $578,000 compared to $658,000 in the prior year quarter, and general and administrative expenses of $2.4 million compared to $3.6 million in the prior year quarter. The reduction in general and administrative expenses was primarily the result of lower stock option expenses and professional fees, which was partially offset by an increase in other general and administrative expenses. The Company expects future operating expenses to increase while it increases the footprint of its business and generates increased sales growth.

Net Loss: Net loss for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 was $1.8 million, or $0.03 basic and diluted net loss per share, compared to a net loss of $3.9 million, or $0.09 basic and diluted net loss per share, for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022. The decrease in the net loss for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023, as compared to the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, is primarily attributable to increased gross margins on sold products and a reduction in general & administrative expenses.

Cash Position: As of July 31, 2023, the Company had working capital of $2.4 million and total cash of $1.0 million.

Additional information regarding the Company’s results of operations for the third quarter ended July 31, 2023 is available in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for such reporting period, which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

$CANQF CANAQUEST Announces Award of European Cannabinoid Patent

https://www.accesswire.com/viewarticle.aspx?id=785136

EU Patent #19846183.2 - A NOVEL BOTANICAL AND TETRAHYDROCANNABINOL ("THC") FORMULATION FOR THE REDUCTION OF CANNABIS-INDUCED NEGATIVE NEUROPSYCHIATRIC SIDE-EFFECTS

We believe we can provide a safer alternative to other THC products providing the benefits without the negative psychiatric side effects. Pre-clinical trials have demonstrated the reversal of depression-like and schizophrenia-related symptoms, blockage of memory impairment, hyperactive activity, and gene vulnerability.

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / September 19, 2023 / CanaQuest Medical Corp ("CanaQuest" or the "Company") (OTC:CANQF), a clinical-stage life sciences company focused on drug discovery and development of next-generation targeted cannabinoid therapeutics for the central nervous system (CNS), is pleased to announce it was awarded a European Cannabinoid Patent, a novel Botanical and Tetrahydrocannabinol ("THC") Formulation for the reduction of cannabis-induced negative neuropsychiatric side-effects.

The formulated product is branded as Mentabinol®, which addresses various psychiatric disorders. Acute THC consumption can trigger paranoid thoughts in vulnerable individuals.

Mentabinol® - Formulation utilizing pharmaceutical-grade botanical extract, L-theanine, and THC molecules extracted from cannabis.

The Scientific Difference - based on pre-clinical trial results at Western University

THC vs Mentabinol®

For many users, THC causes:

Memory impairment and possible long-term cognitive side effects,
Depression-like and schizophrenia-related symptoms,
Anxiety and hyperactive activity,
Schizophrenia due to gene vulnerability.
Application of Mentabinol® has demonstrated in pre-clinical trials:

Reversal of depression-like and schizophrenia-related symptom effects,
Blockage of memory impairment, hyperactive activity, and gene vulnerability.
The discovery was made by a research team led by Dr. Steven Laviolette, a professor, and neuroscientist at Western University with decades of experience in the fields of mental health and cannabinoids.

Western University's Dr. Steven Laviolette said, "What we found was that by administering L-theanine along with the THC-based formulation, we were able to block several side effects of THC exposure, including changes to schizophrenia-related neurochemical pathways, and abnormalities in behaviors - including cognitive and emotional disturbances." "This will be especially beneficial for those who are taking THC for things like long-term pain, chemotherapy side effects, or reducing anxiety or depression." Western University researchers believe this formulation may mitigate this type of harm to chronic cannabis users. The team also concluded that their research provides evidence for combining the THC-based formulations with L-theanine to make them safer for both recreational and medicinal use.

Paul Ramsay, CEO and Co-Founder of CanaQuest stated, "Our patented THC-based formulation will be a catalyst to complement pending Clinical Studies and to introduce our product, branded as Mentabinol®, to the market as a safer alternative to THC by itself."

Physicians, psychiatrists, and healthcare practitioners, interested in joining our network, as well as institutions, clinics, and pharmacies, can register via Join our network.

Domestic and international medical product distributors are welcome to contact us with indications of interest.

$HNRC $CNRC Cunninghan Mining Ltd. / Houston Natural Resources Corp. Acquires Gold Mining Property

https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/cunningham-mining-ltd-acquires-gold-mining-property-301930044.html

CHARLESTON, W.Va., Sept. 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Houston Natural Resources Corp (OTC: HNRC) ("HNRC or the Company"), now known as Cunningham Natural Resources Corp ("CNRC"), announced today that it has acquired an interest in Cunningham Mining Ltd ("CML") with the potential to increase its position over time. CML has completed the acquisition of the Placer Claims known as the 'Nugget Trap Placer Mine" in the British Columbia Mineral Title registry covering 573.7 acres and the accompanying permits and authorizations ("Property") that is situated within the Skeena Mining Division of British Columbia, Canada in the area known as BC`s Golden Triangle.

The Nugget Trap Placer Mine was tested in the 1930's but never commercially mined for Gold and Silver due to its remote location and commodity prices of the era. Located approximately 69 miles northwest of the town of Stewart, British Columbia, the placer claim's mineable area has been fed by glacial movement and pooling creating ideal mining conditions for the recovery of gold and silver. A recent independent assay, which includes data from a 25-pit test program, indicated an average of over Au 25.54 grams gold per cubic meter of pay dirt as well as meaningful amounts of silver. The company is in the process of permitting for a 15,000 cubic yard per annum pay dirt mining program with the British Columbia Ministry of Mines.

Located in northwestern British Columbia, Canada, the Golden Triangle boasts some of the most impressive gold discoveries in North America. For decades, B.C.'s Golden Triangle has attracted prospectors in search of a golden opportunity. Today, the region is experiencing newfound interest thanks to a strengthening gold market and new advances in infrastructure.

Seabridge's KSM Project, based in BC's Golden Triangle, is one of the largest undeveloped gold deposits in the world measured by gold reserves, which is in close proximity to the Nugget Trap Placer claim. An updated Preliminary Feasibility Study (PFS) estimates proven, and probable reserves total 38.8 million ounces of gold and 10.2 billion pounds of copper.

Three lithologic units underlie the Property. The Upper Jurassic Bowser Lake Group of thinly bedded mudstones and siltstones overlies the Middle Jurassic pillow lavas and interbedded mudstones of the Lower Salmon River Formation. Quaternary sediments cover the two Jurassic Formations in the Unuk River and Sulphurets Creek Valleys. The sediments range in size from boulders to fine silt and contain fine-grained placer gold in the Sulphurets creek drainage. The gold recovered was fine-grained flakes that were jagged or torn with sharp edges from being ground by glacial action. The source of the gold in the gravels is from the various large gold and copper deposits identified upstream and up ice from the Property including the Mitchell, Sulphurets, Kerr and Snowfield deposits of Seabridge Gold Inc.

CNRC has acquired an initial 9% interest in Cunningham Mining Ltd in line with its business model to invest in existing energy assets and transitional energy materials like copper, gold and lithium, in addition to other precious and rare earth metals.

$HHSE Hannover House forms InteliMation AI for first major A.I. Animated Feature Production

https://www.accesswire.com/784381/hannover-house-forms-intelimation-ai-for-first-major-ai-animated-feature-production

JOURNEY TO UTOPIA to begin production in December with A-List Voice & Music Talent

Major launch planned for Cannes and Summer (2024) Theatrical Release

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / September 15, 2023 / InteliMation AI, a newly formed division of indie studio Hannover House, Inc. (OTC PINK:HHSE), has secured a private investment commitment to produce the world's first fully A.I. and CGI generated feature film, the family appeal fantasy film, "Journey to Utopia." Featuring a voice talent cast of Academy Award winning actors and box office stars, the film's visuals will be fully generated using cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence visual rendering, based on producer-supplied scene structure input and character designs.

"We have been trying to produce this film for the past ten years," said Eric Parkinson, C.E.O. of Hannover House. "But the visual demands of creating the land of Utopia made the production costs prohibitive and financially risky. That has changed now with the new A.I. technology and our improved strategy to make the film animated as opposed to live-action," he concluded.

"The Artificial Intelligence CGI technology has reached a point where we can create an animated feature that is visually comparable to a $200-million-dollar studio production, but completed for a fraction of the cost and time," said Parkinson. "From script to theatrical DCP, we can produce a major studio quality animated feature in less than eight months."

"The technology from InteliMation should herald in a major paradigm shift in entertainment," said Christian Large, an independent producer and advisor to Hannover House. "High-end animated features will no longer take multiple years and hundreds-of-millions of dollars to produce. This technological breakthrough will enable a broader range of stories to be created and released, which ultimately will help expand the market," he concluded.

The script for "JOURNEY TO UTOPIA" was written by Mike Snyder ("Wildfire") based on a story by Eric Parkinson. The production is in negotiations to secure three Academy Award winning actors as voice talent for the film. Shirley MacLaine is pegged for the role of "Mother Goose;" Forest Whitaker is being pursued to portray the principal antagonist, "Valkerna," and Kim Basinger is being pursued in the role of "Connie Hammonds," the mother of one of the kids who becomes trapped in the land of Utopia.

Pending receipt of a Screen Actors Guild waiver for the production, recording of voice talent is expected to start in late November or early December. A promo reel is planned for the Cannes 2024 festival with a USA Theatrical launch targeted for July 2024.

The world animation market will generate over $411-billion dollars in 2023, according to Statista Research Department - and is expected to grow to over $580-billion by the year 2030. The A.I. fueled software technology pioneered by Hannover House and InteliMation will revolutionize how animated features and television programming are made.

Hannover House and InteliMation are targeting to complete two animated features in 2024, with three set for 2025 and four features per year beginning in 2026. Hannover House will handle the sales representation of the films worldwide, and will coordinate North American theatrical and ancillary sales campaigns with exhibitors, partner studios and major video-on-demand platforms. Hannover House was formed in 1993 and has found success in a variety of indie film distribution arenas, from DVD and VOD distribution to theatrical exhibition.

The release plans for "Journey To Utopia" will follow a traditional model of a wide USA theatrical launch, followed by Video-On-Demand and physical goods (DVDs / BluRay units).
