Nextleaf Shares Commercial Update Featuring Market Expansion Through Entry into Province of Quebec

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 15, 2025) - Nextleaf Solutions Ltd. (CSE: OILS) (OTCQB: OILFF) (FSE: L0MA) ("Nextleaf", "OILS", or the "Company"), an innovation-driven life sciences company and licensed cannabis processor, is excited to share a commercial update including 20 new product listings in major markets nationally across 4 categories. This includes the Company's initial entry into branded product sales in the province of Quebec.

New Products and Innovation

Nextleaf is pleased to announce 20 new listings in major markets under their acclaimed flagship brand Glacial Gold, across 4 categories including vapes, softgels, oils, and infused prerolls. All products mentioned will launch into their respective markets by June 2025.

The listings represent the Company's continued dominance in wellness-forward non-combustible formats such as softgels and bottled oils, their ability to deliver best-in-class value through high volume and high potency formats, and an emphasis on flavour and hardware innovation within the vape category. Notably, Glacial Gold has expanded deeper into minor cannabinoid formulations, with nearly half of new product listings containing CBG or CBN.

"I'm excited about the shift in trends we are noticing, including the groundswell from retailers and consumers seeking a more nuanced cannabis experience and diverse product selection, all the way up to the provincial authorities taking a chance on formulations that are currently under-indexed in the market," shares Emma Andrews, Nextleaf CEO.

"We are intentionally very nimble with our product development process to capitalize on speed-to-market advantage, and we can evolve easily to meet demand through our in-house ingredient processing lab. Our multi-patented extraction process allows us to formulate with precision and offer truly tailored solutions for gaps we see in the market," Andrews continues.
