For The Earth Corporation: For The Earth Announces Sharp Reduction in Dilution Risk and Authorized Share Total

PHOENIX, AZ / ACCESSWIRE / March 21, 2019 / For The Earth Corporation (the "Company" or "FTEG") (OTC PINK: FTEG), an emerging vertically integrated CBD producer and retailer, is proud to announce that it will be cutting its total Authorized Shares by 50% to 10 billion and reducing its forecast for capital requirements in half due to recent improvements in operational efficiency and projected growth in returns on invested capital in coming quarters.

"As we navigate this transition into a fully vertically integrated CBD producer and retailer, we want our investors to know that we are committed to avoiding dilution along the way," noted FTEG CEO Nelson Grist. "We have taken a number of steps to ramp up operational efficiencies, including the establishment of a tailored product logistics facility in Phoenix. We now believe the path to strong revenue growth will be far less capital intensive than we have previously assumed."

Management notes that recent increases in analyst expectations for growth in the CBD space (now anticipating a twenty-fold ramp in total sales volume over the next 36 months to over $20 billion in North America, according to several prominent forecasts) is also an important driver for the Company's reduction in capital needs and share authorization. The Company now sees both a more efficient path to initial revenue growth and a steeper growth curve beyond that point.

In addition, management also notes that the Company has no immediate plans for a reverse share split. "Our assessment of our growth potential once CBD production and distribution is underway at full scale suggests no need to reverse split our shares any time on the foreseeable horizon," continued Mr. Grist. "That said, there are times when a reverse split strategy can be in the long-term best interests of shareholders. So, it's something we would consider if we believe it will augment our growth prospects. But, at present, we do not have any plans for such a move given the organic growth potential we believe we are tapping into as we ramp up our integrated CBD operations."
