No. 2 BGTTF Potential Catalyst - Adding To Ownership Stake In Portfolio Company, Evanesce
Billy Goat Brands Increases Ownership of Sustainable Packaging Disruptor Evanesce Packaging
- The Company Exercised its Incentive Purchase Warrants to Nearly Double its Equity Stake as Evanesce Prepares to Pursue a Public Listing in 2022
- The Sustainable Packaging Business Currently Produces Approximately 40 Million Compostable Straws per Month and is Expanding to Also Manufacture Compostable Cups, Forks, Spoons, and Knives
- GOAT’s Portfolio Company Recently Raised $8Mn via its Warrant Exercise Incentive Program
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, April 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Billy Goat Brands Ltd. (“GOAT” or the “Company”) (CSE: GOAT) (OTCQB: BGTTF) (FRA: 26B), a venture capital platform focused on in-vesting in high-potential companies operating in the ocean economy, is pleased to announce that it has exercised its incentive warrants to nearly double the Company’s ownership stake in Evanesce Inc.

Pursuant to the incentive warrant exercise, GOAT has increased its ownership stake in the Portfolio Company.
Evanesce is a sustainable packaging company led by Douglas Horne, Founder and Chief Executive Officer.

Additionally, the Portfolio Company expects to grow from 88 current employees to over 120 in the near term, as new equipment is installed at its Las Vegas facility. Evanesce plans to list its shares for trading in 2022 on either TSX stock exchange or NASDAQ market. The Portfolio Company’s management team expects the business to generate significantly more revenue this year than last year as numerous North American professional sports teams and theme parks increase their use of Evanesce’s products.

Management Commentary
“Evanesce is an innovative company in which GOAT management has always believed. By exercising our incentive warrants, we are continuing to in-vest in Evanesce and are also committed to supporting its emergence as a leader and innovator in the sustainable packaging industry. Evanesce has a bright future as it prepares to become a public company in 2022, expands its production capacity and continues to grow in other ways.

No. 3 BGTTF Potential Catalyst - Influencers Could Pack A Serious Punch For Company's Marketing
Billy Goat Brands Announces Marketing Campaign Featuring Influential People and Organizations
- The Company’s Engagement of Titans of Industry, Environment, and Social Media Influencers is Being Planned to Create Awareness About Itself, its ESG-Driven Portfolio Companies and the Ocean Economy
- More Than Three Billion People Rely on the Ocean for Their Livelihoods, Whether it’s for Food or for Income
- With Social Media Becoming Prevalent and its Data Being Harnessed, it is Easier for a Business to be More Specific and Reach its Target Audiences Today Than Ever Before
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, April 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Billy Goat Brands Ltd. (“GOAT” or the “Company”) (CSE: GOAT) (OTCQB: BGTTF) (FRA: 26B), a venture capital platform focused on identifying, sponsoring and incubating environmental, social and governance (“ESG”)-driven companies in the ocean economy, is pleased to announce the launch of an influencer-based marketing campaign (the “Campaign”) to create awareness about the Company, its portfolio of innovative businesses and the overall ocean economy. In the near future, GOAT will begin revealing the engagements of influential people and collaborations with leading organizations in order to heighten the market’s understanding of the issues facing the world’s oceans and the resulting opportunities that are both environmentally sustainable and economically attractive. The Campaign will be deployed over the course of approximately three months, but is subject to being extended based on its level of effectiveness.
The Company is specifically designing the Campaign to feature itself as a unique public issuer that is a platform for the ocean economy as well as its four portfolio companies. First, Sophie’s Kitchen is a rapidly growing plant-based seafood company that is making a positive impact on the overfishing of the world’s oceans through its evolving line of products. Second, Evanesce Packaging is curbing the glut of single-use plastics that end up in the sea by manufacturing millions of 100% compostable and biodegradable straws and food containers. Third, FunGuys Beverages is working to reduce the amount of waste from beverage containers by packaging its KOLD line of functional cold brew coffee products in LOOP-compliant bottles. Fourth, The Vegetarian Butcher is helping to reduce the emissions from the traditional protein industry but making plant-based products available to consumers at its retail locations in British Columbia.
Influencer marketing leverages the relationships between brands and people with large captive audiences, where an influencer typically promotes a brand's products or services through various social media outlets, subject to disclosure rules that may apply in their respective jurisdictions. Influencers are usually trusted figures within a certain community and retain a loyal following with knowledge or experience about the products, services or causes that they are endorsing. With social media becoming prevalent and its data also being harnessed, it is easier for a business to be more specific and reach its target audience today than ever before. Therefore, the Company’s management team has elected to pursue an influencer-based marketing strategy across multiple platforms.
[...]
Management Commentary
“We are excited to embark on this new awareness creation strategy and launch the Campaign in collaboration with a diverse set of influential people and organizations that will be revealed in the near future. We believe that strategic collaborations with various titans of industry will help our stakeholders learn more about the ocean economy and certain ESG-driven companies, to help them make better choices on a day-to-day basis as well as to become aware of the interesting economic opportunities that they present,” said Tony Harris, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of GOAT. “We continue to develop our portfolio of innovative in-vestees and seek out new opportunities that fit with our business model. Our expectation is that the Campaign will not only increase our audience’s understanding of our key messages, but that it will also grow that audience and potentially yield new opportunities as well,” added Mr. Harris.

The British Columbia market is growing very quickly for this type of product, especially on Vancouver Island and the lower mainland.

“We are thrilled to support the growth that we’ve seen at FunGuys as its team continues to move forward with cultivating new sales channels. Through the Agreement, FunGuys will be able to accelerate its expansion plan for 2022 including the advancement of its e-commerce store.
