2021 Business Update:

“Business conditions have been exceptionally trying this year, and Lattice Biologics is no exception. Unfortunately, we were not able to resolve our debt obligations with our largest secured creditor. Lattice Biologics Inc., the U.S. subsidiary, was forced to restructure amid the multiple demands of the COVID-19 pandemic. Although the Company had no quality issues related to its products, due to excessive debt, we were forced to seek Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection for the subsidiary.

Following a comprehensive strategic review of the Company, we made the exciting decision to enter and focus on the fast growing psychedelic and Cannabis life sciences. With Lattice’s extensive knowledge of processing and purifying advanced biologics, we intend to be a leader in the emerging psychedelic market. We are proud to announce the addition of Ian Kerwin and Shawn Baghali to the Board of Directors. Both Shawn and Ian have extensive knowledge of the cannabis and psychedelic markets. Exiting Biologics allows the management team to reorganize the subsidiary and related debts while not affecting the holding and listed Company and to allow the Company and shareholders to focus on and benefit from future generated medicines and treatments. During this transition period, we remain committed to our Biologics customers, and will continue to support our technologies and services,” said Guy Cook, CEO.

Lattice Biologics maintains its commitment to honoring the gift of donation by maintaining a strong quality program that supports our existing and previous clients throughout the reorganization.
