Tauriga Sciences, Inc. (TAUG) Enters into Comprehensive Distribution Agreement to Establish its Tauri-Gum Brand

Tauriga Sciences, Inc. (OTCQB: TAUG) (“Tauriga” or the “Company”), a revenue-generating Company that operates through the development, distribution, and licensing of proprietary products as well as the evaluation of potential acquisition opportunities and equity investments, today announced that it has entered into a comprehensive distribution agreement (the “Agreement”) with a well-established Direct Store Delivery (“DSD”) Food Distribution Company with annual revenue in excess of $100,000,000 from its thousands of customers (convenience stores, delis, pharmacies, supermarkets, specialty stores, etc.) in the New York City (“NYC”) Metropolitan Area marketplace (the “NYC Market”).

xThe thrust of the Agreement is to establish the Company’s Tauri-Gum^TM CBD Infused chewing gum brand in the NYC Market, with an initial penetration into 300-500 NYC based retail store locations during April-May of 2019.  To that end, Tauriga is pleased to confirm that as of March 31, 2019, its new distributor both paid for and accepted delivery of the product covered by its previously announced $54,000 Tauri-Gum^TM Purchase Order. Accordingly, the Company has booked this $54,000 as revenue during its 4^th Fiscal Quarter of 2019 (period ending: March 31, 2019). Tauriga intends to support this NYC Tauri-Gum^TM commercial launch with substantial levels of both financial resources and marketing support with a goal of exceeding 1,000 distinct locations over the next several months.

The Company has made the strategic decision to focus its commercialization efforts on the NYC Market because of: (a) its large population of young, health conscious potential customers positioned squarely in Taur-Gum^TM’s prime target demographic and (b) its excellent distribution relationship, which together the Company believes will maximize its efforts to achieve a successful launch of its Tauri-Gum^TM brand in an efficient and cost-effective manner.

Tauriga’s Chief Executive Officer, Seth M. Shaw, expressed, “The Company believes that it has a material competitive advantage in the NYC Market, in terms of its ability to efficiently and effectively roll out its Tauri-Gum^TM product line to the many retail stores through this new distribution agreement.  We are very pleased to be in this position; building our future with what we believe to be an excellent product and an excellent distribution partner.”

*** Tauriga Sciences, Inc. recognizes revenue based upon the completion of performance obligations (as defined as: in ASC 606 in the regulations).
