| Item 7.01. | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
Regarding the sale of Nutriband consumer products (vitamin, energy, slim patch and other), the Company retained Keller and Heckman LLP to provide an opinion on the legal and required registration status of Nutriband products in the US under the Food and Drug Administration rules and regulations. According to the firm’s opinion, Nutriband products are regulated as drugs by the FDA and must go through the relevant development pipeline as such before receiving market approval. Nutriband products are currently not available for sale within the United States, as the Company had sought further legal advice on their classification.
To date Nutriband’s only distribution contract it is fulfilling with these products has been signed with Best Choice Inc. of South Korea.
The classification of Nutriband’s products within the United States as drugs may significantly limit projected sales targets of the Company with regards to its product line, unless required regulatory approvals are obtained, as the United States is the largest worldwide market for such products.
