Miami, FL, April 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Earth Science Tech, Inc. (OTC: ETST) (“ETST” or “Company”), a holding entity currently focused on the health and wellness industry, today shares a letter from the Company’s CEO, Giorgio R. Saumat on the many accomplishments leading to a successful year.
Dear Stakeholders,
It is with a great deal of excitement that I write this annual letter to you.
The last year has been one of incredible progress at ETST. I have fielded many calls and emails to which I simply have had no comment or response. Now that we have closed our fiscal year on March 31st, it is appropriate for me to update you on the status and progress of the company over the latest fiscal year.
We are executing! Our company has had big accomplishments. Here they are:
- RxCompoundStore.com is licensed in 22 States with multiple States pending, this is up from 2 States a year ago.
- The company has 31 official employees with an additional 11 independent/temporary contractors who we intend to convert into full-time or for whom we intend to create in-house positions as soon as reasonably possible, for a total of 42.
- The company has an impressive Board of Directors consisting of 5 members, including 2 independent members.
- The Board of Directors has created an audit committee of 3 members, with 1 independent director serving on the committee.
- The company has retired most, if not all, long-term liabilities, making for a cleaner balance sheet.
- The company has hired a new CFO, Ernesto L. Flores, who is leading the company through our current 10-k annual audit.
- The company has hired a new CTO, Chris Rose, who is transforming our technology and digital compliance across the entire organization.
- Peaks Curative has been activated, revamped its properties (PeaksCurative.com / PeakNow.com / ViagraMia.com / MySexGummy.com / MyOnlineConsultation.com / WLSolution.com / WeightLossSolution.com / ScreamCream.net / ClearupSkinCare.com / iHairSolution.com), started marketing, and is generating sales across all segments of its business.
- RxCompoundStore.com continues to refine and develop DocProtocol.com to provide prescribers access to unique protocols that assist them in using RxCompoundStore.com compounds to enhance their patients’ health and wellness.
- The company has repurchased 5,200,002 shares, representing
1.6% of the outstanding share count as of the end of the 3rd quarter, for an aggregate$178,000.08 or .034/Share. - The company has expanded its executive/administrative space on the 22nd floor of the Town One Center property, where RxCompoundStore.com is located on the ground floor, to include roughly an additional 2,500 square feet and access to conference/meeting rooms. ETST has also expanded its off-site storage space by roughly 1,500 square feet. Increasing the ETST footprint from roughly 2,000 square feet a year ago to roughly 6,000 square feet today, a
200% Increase. - Peaks Curative currently has 5 prescribers (licensed in most states as RxCompoundStore.com) on its platform and is expected to add more as sales volumes increase with its marketing efforts.
- RxCompoundStore.com was successful in having a lawsuit, brought by a major drug manufacturer in September 2023, dismissed with prejudice (a complete win).
All of these accomplishments (I'm confident I'm missing a few) show the management team’s commitment to growing the company and performing at a high level for our shareholders.
With respect to the buyback program announced on January 29th, 2024, it is important to note that the buyback authorized by the Board of Directors is effective through December 31st, 2025. It is designed for the company to use free cash flows towards the repurchase of stock over time. We have taken the approach of purchasing through private transactions first, as it provides the company the ability to negotiate and acquire shares at a lower price than available on the market (as evidenced through our completed purchases) due to the logistics of registering private shares. This approach mitigates the amount of shares that could come to market while allowing the company to repurchase at a discount. Once we have exhausted private transactions, we will turn our focus to purchasing on the open market.
Lastly (and most importantly), I'm thrilled to pre-announce that the company had at least 5.7M in revenue in the fiscal 4th quarter alone, representing a
Needless to say: WE ARE EXECUTING.
Management is actively vetting future non-dilutive acquisitions/partnerships/investments to augment shareholder value. When we identify the right target, we expect to use our increasing cash position for a move.
I would like to note that while our current subsidiaries are in the health and wellness space, we are not limiting our search for acquisitions/partnerships/investments to the health and wellness space.
We believe our current subsidiaries can continue to grow organically while we diversify our holdings in other industries AND finance the growth of our current subsidiaries.
Thank you for being an ETST shareholder. We look forward to continuing to deliver for you and all stakeholders of ETST.

Giorgio R Saumat
