Ehave Plans Stock Distribution; Mycotopia Therapies Plans To Merge With Ei. Ventures
Ehave has signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) with Ei.Ventures to explore a merger forming PSLY.COM, an estimated $360 million transaction. As part of this process, Ehave plans to spin out 30% of its Mycotopia Therapies shares to existing shareholders. Ehave currently holds approximately 9.8 million shares of Mycotopia, which focuses on psilocybin-based therapeutics. The merged companies aim to list on NASDAQ after completing pre-clinical trials for their flagship product, Psilly. This move is seen as a strategic shift towards enhancing shareholder value and market presence.
- Potential $360 million merger could enhance market position.
- Spin-out of 30% Mycotopia shares may offer immediate value to shareholders.
- Focus on psilocybin therapeutics positions Ehave in a growing market.
- Integration challenges could arise from the merger process.
- Stock dilution risk due to share spin-out.

MIAMI, Dec. 08, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ehave, Inc., (OTC Pink: EHVVF) (the “Company”), a provider of digital therapeutics for the psychedelic and mental health sectors, announced today plans to spin out
Ehave controls approximately 9,793,754 shares of Mycotopia Therapies, and the Company plans to spin out a percentage of its shares of the combined companies to its existing shareholders. Ehave acquired its shares in Mycotopia Therapies in December 2020 after its Board of directors elected to sell
“Spinning out a portion of Ehave's Mycotopia Therapy shares to our shareholders is an honor and a privilege,” said Ben Kaplan, CEO of Ehave. Mr. Kaplan continued, “We knew Mycotopia Therapies would have more potential as its own publicly traded company. Being able to spin out
Mycotopia Therapies is focused on the research, development, and commercialization of novel therapeutics based on naturally-derived psilocybin. Performing most of its research in Jamaica, where psilocybin is legal, Mycotopia Therapies is focused on mushroom and psychedelic opportunities. Mycotopia Therapies is currently working with one of the largest cannabis labs in the Netherlands to develop psychedelics to jointly license certain molecules to be used in psychedelic medicine. Mycotopia Therapies also plans to open psylocibin and ketamine clinics in Jamaica under the direction of a licensed clinical psychiatrist. Mycotopia Therapies’ psylocibin and ketamine clinic will be designed to make the most peaceful and serene setting possible to give patients an ideal situation for psychedelic therapies. The primary focus of each clinic will be to help patients heal and reclaim their life under the direction of a licensed clinical psychiatrist.
Ei.Ventures’ flagship botanical psilocybin-based formulation Psilly is a whole-plant botanical psilocybin-based formulation, which is currently in the pre-clinical phase. The goal of the combined companies would be to complete pre-clinical and phase 1 trials and launch therapeutic Psilly into jurisdictions where psilocybin is legal. Psilly is a whole plant and fungi botanical formulation. Ei.Ventures has pioneered using the whole plant and fungi in its botanical formulations, which has the potential to create the “Entourage Effect.” Researchers suggest the Entourage Effect could be key to Psilocybin’s healing properties. The Entourage Effect is a synergistic interaction between two or more different molecules found within the same plant. Similar to how various strains of cannabis has different effects on the end-user, the same effect is now believed to hold true with Psilocybin mushrooms.
The distribution plan is subject to Ehave’s Board of Directors authorization. A more complete description of the spin-out of Mycotopia Therapies shares to shareholders will be in a forthcoming press release and in our filings with the SEC on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
