EXHIBIT 99.1

 

Cosmos Health Successfully Completes Acquisition of Cana Laboratories;

Anticipates to Record a Substantial Gain on Bargain Purchase

 

CHICAGO, IL / ACCESSWIRE / July 6, 2023 / Cosmos Health Inc. ("Cosmos Health" or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:COSM), a global healthcare group with proprietary lines of nutraceuticals and distributor of pharmaceuticals, branded generics, OTC medications and medical devices, announced today the successful closing of the acquisition of Pharmaceutical Laboratories CANA S.A., ("Cana"), a Greek pharmaceutical company that manufactures, sells, distributes, and markets original branded products researched and developed by leading global pharmaceutical and healthcare companies.

 

The purchase price for acquiring all of the outstanding shares of Cana was approximately $1.67 million, consisting of €800,000 in cash and $800,000 in stock, based on an issuance price of $17.25 per share. The acquisition price is considered to be significantly discounted to the current Fair Market Value (“FMV”) of Cana's intangible and tangible assets, which are currently valued in excess of $10 million, based on independent valuation reports and market comparables. Consequently, Cosmos Health anticipates recording a substantial gain on bargain purchase, when considering the equity investment of $1.67 million in comparison to the FMV of assets exceeding $10 million.

 

Greg Siokas, Chief Executive Officer of Cosmos Health, stated: “We are thrilled to announce the successful completion of the acquisition of Cana, a company with nearly a century of rich heritage and history. Cana has been entrusted by multinational companies such as AstraZeneca, Merck, Janssen, Nestle, Unilever, and Procter & Gamble, while also hosting an attractive portfolio of owned brands including pharmaceuticals, dermocosmetics such as Eleon Cosmetics, antiseptics such as C-Sept, food supplements, as well as an infant care organic product line, Biobebe.

 

“Our team worked diligently on this transformational acquisition, and we are confident that we can deliver significant value for our shareholders. We managed to secure a highly attractive acquisition price relative to the current FMV, which is several times higher. Moreover, we are very pleased that the sellers of Cana, who will remain on Cana's management team, believe in the value of our Company, and have accepted to receive Cosmos shares at a much higher price than the current market price. This is a strong vote of confidence.

 

“Moreover, as part of the transaction, we have also obtained ownership of Cana's 54,000 sq. ft production facility. This addition further strengthens our portfolio of attractive real estate, following the recent acquisition of the property that houses the operations of our subsidiary, Cosmofarm. Importantly, these properties are unencumbered, allowing us to raise attractively priced, non-dilutive capital if the need arises.

“Cosmos is in execution mode. So far this year, we have successfully executed and completed three acquisitions: the distribution network of Bikas GP, which we project to add more than $10 million to our annual revenue; ZipDoctor, marking our entry into the telehealth space; and as of June 30, Cana, which benefits us through vertical integration and allows us to enter into lucrative contract manufacturing agreements with large multinational companies as clients. These contracts have high-profit margins, and we expect that they will materially enhance our cash flows. Let me also add that we are making progress on the acquisition of German-based Docpharm. We have executed a binding Letter of Intent, and we anticipate this acquisition will generate an additional $30 million in annual revenue by 2025, although there can be no assurance of same. In short, our annual revenue and operating cash flow are poised to increase materially as a result of the aforementioned acquisitions.”

 

Mr. Siokas concluded that “overall, the acquisition of Cana represents another significant stride in the right direction and propels our efforts to establish Cosmos as a leading diversified global healthcare group. We are also making substantial progress in R&D on multiple fronts, including innovative solutions for obesity and weight management, with clinical trials scheduled to commence in the fourth quarter of 2023. We remain fully committed to generating substantial value for our shareholders, who form the bedrock of our Company.”
