Canadian biopharma psychedelics company Cube Psytech Holdings agreed to acquire Translational Life Sciences (TLS).
Cube will issue about 50% of its outstanding shares, warrants and options to shareholders, directors and employees of TLS in exchange for 100% of its outstanding share capital. This will result in TLS's acquiring one-third of the share capital in Cube.
The deal is contingent on a private placement or another financing of a minimum of $1.5 (CA$2) million.

At the moment, the company has initiated a private placement to issue up to 16 million units for gross proceeds of $3 million at a price of $0.18 each.
Each unit consists of one common share and one-half warrant; each full warrant will have an exercise price of $0.30 per share and will expire three years after the issue date.
TLS, a life sciences company based at the University of British Columbia, would be a part of the Cube portfolio, which includes Cube Psytech Corp. and Cube Wellness Products Inc. The deal includes a drug discovery pipeline, more than 1,000 extracted botanical compounds as well as brain-receptor profiling data on over 200 species of mushrooms.
TLS holds a Health Canada dealer’s license covering commercial scalability of production and product development in several psilocybin-based drugs. The company has developed proprietary efficacy and consistency testing protocols towards taking its psychedelic products to achieve clinical-grade standards.
