ATLANTA, GA--(Marketwired – April 13, 2017) - True Nature Holding, Inc. ( OTCQB : TNTY ) (the "Company") provides this update on their acquisitions in process, and with regard to their overall plans to expand in 2017. The Company also notes that it expects to file its Form 10K timely on the 17th of April as noted in its extension filing, and expects the Form 10Q for the period ended March 31, 2017 will be filed shortly thereafter.“We have three (3) transactions in process at this time. In combination they establish the first legs of our “hub and spoke” strategy, with retail pharmacy operations, generally inside of existing, high traffic grocery sites, with a “centralized-fill” operation based within our compounding pharmacy sites, on a regional basis,” explained Mack Leath, a member of the Board of Directors, and Secretary. He continued, “Our Miami transaction begins the “spoke” component, with two existing sites, and plans to add six additional locations in 2017, and up to ten (10) in 2018. We are finishing due diligence on this and expect to close in the next few weeks.
This business is profitable, and did $3.5 million in revenue for 2016, and with a timely roll-out of the new stores should double, or triple that, in 2017. We believe that this group can grow to 16 stores and produce up to $30 million in annualized revenue by the end of 2018.”The Company is also working on completion of a compounding site in the Southeastern US whose 2016 revenues exceeded $25 million, and a smaller compounder in South Florida that did over $2.5 million in 2016. Both sites are profitable and are expected to become the “hubs” in the network, performing a consolidated fill function, as well as their role in the compounding products arena. “The unique compounding products from these producers will be sold both direct, in the traditional compounding phamacy model, and through the retail storefronts in our network,” explained Leath.When asked about new product lines, Mr. Leath said, “We are also considering an entry into the sterile pharmaceutical area, and have a particular situation under consideration. It is an interesting area, and we think it makes sense, if we can create the right revenue streams, in the best markets. We will advise our investors as we get closer to this decision.”The True Nature Holding, Inc.

We agree that there is a large and growing marketplace here, and we think we need to carefully evaluate the options before entering the market, and that Leo Smith will help us drive that effort.”The Mission of True Nature Holdings, Inc.To unlock the potential of the compounding pharmacy industry to improve human and animal health, serve unmet patient needs, elevate the dignity of skilled pharmacists, and build shareholder value through the delivery of quality, cost effective, and innovative healthcare products and pharmaceuticals to the world.The Vision of True Nature Holdings, Inc.To become globally recognized for our best practices focused on driving quality, efficiency, and sustainability in the compounding pharmaceutical industry, natural solutions for healthy living, and novel approaches for delivery of these solutions.Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform ActAs contemplated by the provisions of the Safe Harbor section of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, this news release contains forward-looking statements pertaining to future, anticipated, or projected plans, performances, and developments, as well as other statements relating to future operations.
