Peak Pharmaceuticals Updates Research And Commercial Activities For Q1

BOULDER, CO--(Marketwired - March 03, 2015) - Peak Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OTCQB: PKPH) (“Peak Pharma” or the “Company”), a growth stage company aiming to become a leader in the research, development, sales and marketing of safe, hemp-based supplements for both humans and animals has enjoyed an active beginning to the year and wishes to provide a Q1 2015 update of ongoing research and commercial activities.

The Company recently acquired additional scientific equipment for its laboratory facilities at the BioScience Park Center located on the Anschutz Medical Campus at the University of Colorado, Denver. Ongoing research activities aim to leverage the Company’s 2014 hemp crop into product prototypes for testing, production, and ultimately groundbreaking first-to-market hemp-based supplement products. The company plans to develop anti-inflammatory products aimed at the human health market, as well as additional products for the veterinary market.

In the animal health segment of the business, the company is increasing production capacity for its Canna-Pet™ line of products, with the goal of growing retail sales through veterinary clinics and retail stores, in addition to its current online ecommerce portal (www.canna-pet.com). Current efforts are underway to market and sell Canna-Pet™ through the Amazon network and additional details will be made available once the product is launched.

In related news, at the beginning of February, the Canna-Pet™ website was used to launch what is believed to be the first ever public survey regarding the actual customer application and use of CBD-rich, hemp based animal supplements. The Company is very pleased to report that the participation and response to the survey significantly exceeded expectations and as such, the data sample should prove instrumental in the development and marketing of a wide variety of next generation products.

Peak Pharmaceuticals President and CEO Dr. Soren Mogelsvang notes, “It’s been a very busy start to 2015 and we are thrilled by the upsurge in activity. Our company is growing, and with current research and development activities aimed at launching our first human health product later this year, we expect to continue increasing revenues from product sales. Along this line, expansion into new channel markets for our animal products is an important step towards targeting a broader segment of consumers. I’d also like to thank everyone who participated in our animal health survey. This survey data is critically important to our R&D activities and we hope to pay you all back with even better products in future.”
