NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 03, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Global Care Capital Inc. (CSE: HLTH, FRANKFURT: L6V1) (the "Company" or "Global Care") a global investment company which engages in early stage investment opportunities in private and public companies, is pleased to announce that further to its press release of May 22, 2020, the Company has entered into a share purchase agreement (the "Agreement") on June 2nd, 2020 to acquire 70% of the issued and outstanding common shares of High Standard Health Care Ltd. ("High Standard Health Care"), a portfolio company founded by Dan Kriznic at High Standard Capital Corp., in exchange for securities of Global Care, (the "Transaction").

High Standard Health Care specializes in procuring personal protective equipment ("PPE") including but not limited to respiratory masks, hand sanitizer, gowns, infrared thermometers and face shields and has been active in procurement during COVID-19 for hospitals, municipalities, long-term care facilities, fire departments and police departments. Recently High Standard Health Care was engaged to procure 2 million respiratory masks for a hospital in upstate New York due to the significant shortage and difficulty of securing PPE during the pandemic. This order was delivered late April 2020 and re-orders continue. High Standard Health Care works with trusted supply partners globally that provide favorable terms and real time shipments during a time where PPE is scarce and difficult to procure. During the first two months of operations High Standard Health Care generated approximately $4 million in purchase orders with a gross margin of approximately 40%.

In April 2020, High Standard Health Care received its Medical Device Establishment License from the Minister of Health of Canada allowing it to import Class 1 PPE into Canada.

From the period starting March 1st, 2020, when High Standard Health Care commenced operations until May 29th, 2020, High Standard Health Care reports having generated approximately CDN$ 3.75million in revenue and approximately CDN$ 1 million in net income before income taxes from the distribution of PPE products.  The Company cautions revenue and net income numbers have not yet been audited and are based on reports generated by High Standard Health Care management.

High Standard Health Care has existing relationships with China based manufacturers who supply the PPE products.   High Standard Health Care provides production orders to these manufacturers from time to time at which point the manufacturers will allocate production from their facilities to support these orders.

Terms of the Agreement

The material terms of the Agreement are as follows:

Pat Gray ("Gray"), CEO and director of High Standard Health Care will be granted 1,000,000 stock options in Global Care at an exercise price equivalent to the share price on the Closing Date expiring five years from the Closing Date and vesting immediately. Gray has founded and co-founded a number of companies including sCube, an e-licensing and e-discovery technology company, located in up-state New York that deals with many government organizations throughout the United States.

Alexander Somjen, CEO of Global Care, stated: "The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted everyone's lives and PPE such as respiratory masks are going to be required for many years to come. High Standard Health Care identified this need early and with speed and connections was able to penetrate the PPE market in a very short period of time."

Gray, CEO of High Standard Health Care stated: "These are unprecedented times. Our ability to secure supply for organizations in need during this pandemic has been key to the success of the business. The partnership with Global Care will allow us to fund our orders quicker allowing for increased access to fill customer demand."

In association with the arms-length transaction, there is no change in Management, or the Board of Directors of Global Care being contemplated at this time.  No finder's fees will be payable in association with the Transaction.  The Company expects to close within ten days of announcing the transaction.
