GABY Inc Announces Improved Access to Shares for Investors via Recent DTC Eligibility Approval

GABY’s DTC Eligibility makes acquiring shares in the company significantly easier for US investors

SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / January 6, 2022 / GABY Inc. (“GABY” or the “Company”) (CSE:GABY)(OTCQB:GABLF), a California consolidator of cannabis dispensaries and the parent company of San Diego’s Mankind Dispensary (“Mankind”), is pleased to announce the Company’s recent eligibility approval by the Depository Trust Company (DTC) under the symbol “GABLF.” The company’s common shares will continue to trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) under the symbol “GABY.”

The DTC (a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation) manages the electronic clearing and settlement of publicly traded companies. When a company has gained approval to be traded through the DTC, they are considered to be “DTC eligible.” As one of the world’s largest securities deposits, the DTC provides security and trust for investors who might otherwise be wary of non-DTC eligible companies.

Canadian investors or those trading via the CSE will continue to have access to the Canadian Depository for Securities Limited (CDS). CDS is a centralized depository service and electronic clearing and settlement system used in Canada and provides the trading infrastructure and technology to the Canadian capital markets.

“This is another significant step forward for GABY and its investors,” said Founder and CEO Margot Micallef. “There are barriers that make it challenging for U.S. investors to acquire cannabis stocks. By gaining DTC eligibility, GABY shares are eligible to be cleared by the DTC in the U.S. and CDS in Canada, making GABY shares easier for investors to access in both countries. This gives us a strong foundation as we prepare to deliver substantial progress for our investors in 2022.”

The DTC’s automated processes of electronically clearing securities accelerates the process for investors and brokers, allowing a substantially larger number of investors to trade the company’s shares.

Each of Mankind and GABY Manufacturing, are subsidiaries of GABY and hold a cannabis license in the State of California. Readers are cautioned that unlike in Canada which has Federal 032320-F legislation uniformly governing the cultivation, distribution, sale and possession of medical cannabis under the Cannabis Act (Federal), in the United States (“U.S.”), cannabis is largely regulated at the State level. Cannabis is legal in the State of California; however, cannabis remains illegal under U.S. federal laws. Notwithstanding the permissive regulatory environment of cannabis at the State level, cannabis continues to be categorized as a controlled substance under the Controlled Substances Act in the U.S. and as such, cannabis-related practices or activities, including without limitation, the manufacture, importation, possession, use or distribution of cannabis are illegal under U.S. federal law. To the knowledge of the Company, the businesses operated by each of GABY’s subsidiaries are conducted in a manner consistent with the State law of California, as applicable, and are in compliance with regulatory and licensing requirements applicable in the State of California, respectively. However, readers should be aware that strict compliance with State laws with respect to cannabis will neither absolve GABY, or its subsidiary of liability under U.S. federal law, nor will it provide a defense to any federal proceeding in the U.S. which could be brought against any of GABY, or its subsidiary. Any such proceedings brought against GABY, or its subsidiary may materially adversely affect the Company’s operations and financial performance generally in the U.S. market specifically
