Tauriga Sciences, Inc. (TAUG) Completes Capital Raise of $168,250

Tauriga Sciences, Inc. (TAUG) (“Tauriga” or the “Company”), engaged in building its business through the development, distribution, and licensing of proprietary products as well as the evaluation of potential acquisition opportunities and equity investments, today announced that the Company has secured $168,250 in new financing to support its merger & acquisition activities.  This financing has been structured in the format of a 12-month duration <8.00%> $180,000 Face Value Convertible Debenture (the “Note”) with GS Capital Partners, LLC (“GS Capital”); this Note was issued with an $11,750 Original Issue Discount (“OID”) resulting in a net purchase price (“purchase price”) of $168,250.  The Maturity Date for this Note is close of business on October 25, 2019.

Within the next few days, the Company will disclose the material terms of this financing agreement on FORM 8-K.

The Company chose this financing structure as an alternative to a straight equity private placement (which was made an available option to the Company), because it believes that its potential long-term value is not being properly reflected through its current market capitalization.  The Company believes that this decision has the potential to reduce share dilution, especially if management is successful in executing its game-plan over the next 6-12 months.

The Company maintains a strong and diversified balance sheet, in the form of cash and marketable securities (inclusive of: shares, registered and unregistered Warrants, and private company ownership), which management believes has the potential to drive shareholder value in a complimentary manner to potential merger & acquisition activities.

Tauriga’s CEO, Seth M. Shaw, commented, “The Company has streamlined its long-term strategy into three main corporate goals:  the consummation of high-quality acquisition(s) to create shareholder value, the maintenance of a strong and diversified balance sheet with potential significant long-term upside, and the commitment to protecting its capital structure & curtailing shareholder dilution.  With the completion of this above-referenced financing, Tauriga believes that it can both: properly fund its proposed OMEGA-3 acquisition and retain the vast majority of its balance sheet.  The Company has established an excellent working relationship with GS Capital and is pleased to be working with that fund in building what it believes to be a successful future for its shareholders.”

In other events, Tauriga has recently received shipment of its 4 LEVEL II ELECTRIC VEHICLE PEDESTAL CHARGING UNITS (“EV Chargers”) in connection with its active Reseller Agreement with Blink Charging Co.  The Company is working diligently to deploy these EV Chargers in several locations (so that revenue can potentially be generated).  These 4 EV Chargers were fully paid for, by the Company, during July 2018 (its 2^nd Fiscal Quarter of 2019).  Additionally, the Company has been in active talks with a major Scottsdale, AZ based real estate developer to potentially place a large number of EV chargers on the properties of several large residential structures.  Should these efforts result in an agreement, the Company will notify its shareholders in a timely manner.
