Cizzle Brands Achieves Double-Digit Growth For All CWENCH Hydration™ SKUs Across Top North American Accounts
Among North American key accounts for the Company, retailers and distributors have been placing re-orders for CWENCH Hydration™, on average, once per week throughout the first half of this fiscal year. This recurring pace of re-orders clearly demonstrates strong distribution and a high velocity of in-store sales. TORONTO, March 06, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cizzle Brands Corporation (Cboe Canada: CZZL) (OTCQB: CZZLF) (Frankfurt: 8YF) (the "Company" or "Cizzle Brands"), is pleased to provide investors with an update on sales traction for its flagship product, CWENCH Hydration™. Since the start of the Company's fiscal year (August 1, 2024), CWENCH Hydration™ has outperformed initial expectations as the brand continues to be commercialized across Canada and the United States. To date, every retailer that is carrying CWENCH Hydration has placed at least one re-order within two months of carrying the product. Among four of the Company's key North American accounts, re-orders are being submitted, on average, once per week, with 111 cumulative wholesale orders from these four key accounts since August 1, 2024. Cizzle Brands' President and Chief Revenue Officer Tucker Wright commented, "As we strategically introduce CWENCH Hydration™ to the market with key retail partners and cultivate a sustained sales pipeline through these channels, we can attribute this re-order rate to several factors. Foremost is the quality of the product, which we believe speaks for itself as customers come back to the store to buy more CWENCH after purchasing it for the first time. This is part of a broader trend, in which there is growing demand for premium healthy hydration options for athletes of all ages… and CWENCH's key differentiators – all-natural, low-sugar, non-plastic packaging – is helping it to excel in the category. Additionally, robust distribution logistics and prominent in-store marketing (e.g., endcap displays and point-of-sale materials) have helped to solidify an efficient operations cycle from the point of manufacture to the point of consumption. We will continue to scale the footprint of CWENCH Hydration™ using this playbook, and we are very pleased with the results achieved to date in this fiscal year." In the Company's largest account in Canada (a national sporting goods retailer with over 100 locations), unit sales of the two Hydration Mix versions of CWENCH Hydration™ have grown by 72%1 (10-Count) and 64%2 (315-gram) sequentially from the first quarter of the present fiscal year (three-month period from August 1 2024 to October 31, 2024) to the second quarter of the present fiscal year (three-month period from November 1 2024 to January 31, 2025). Similarly, unit sales of all four Ready-to-Drink ("RTD") flavours of CWENCH Hydration™ at Cizzle Brands' largest U.S. account (an upscale chain of fitness centres with over 100 locations throughout the United States) grew by 39%3 from September of 2024 through January of 2025. Cizzle Brands' Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer John Celenza commented, "Having launched CWENCH Hydration™ in May of 2024, the product has proven itself remarkably well in the Canadian and U.S. marketplaces, which has been sustaining our brand growth and product re-order rate while maintaining strong margins. As a healthy hydration option for athletes of all ages, the visibility of the CWENCH Hydration™ brand at the grassroots level has been instrumental to our growth. With orders coming in from athletes and trainers across professional sports teams and Division 1 colleges along with our support of 500 youth hockey teams representing over 12,000 youth hockey players across North America, these factors have helped to establish a substantial presence for CWENCH in the world of sports. Adults, teens, and children are asking for CWENCH by name and are making it part of their hydration playbook. We are only getting started with building market share for CWENCH Hydration™, and I believe that these early-stage reorder rates provide us with a growing confidence in terms of what is on the horizon for CWENCH and Cizzle Brands."

DTC eligibility streamlines the trading process, making it more efficient for investors and brokers. As a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), DTC handles electronic clearing and settlement for publicly traded companies. With DTC eligibility, the Company's shares can now be traded across a wider network of brokerage firms, accelerating the settlement process and improving access for a broader range of investors. The graduation to the OTCQB and DTC eligibility occurred only eight weeks after Cizzle Brands' common shares began trading on the Cboe Canada Inc. stock exchange ("Cboe Canada") in Canada under the ticker symbol CZZL, and just three weeks after the Company obtained its first European listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol 8YF. The Company's public listing on Cboe Canada has generated a significant amount of media and investor interest, with Cizzle Brands' Founder, Chairman and CEO, John Celenza, being interviewed on BNN Bloomberg, Trader TV, and amongst others. With respect to the graduation to OTCQB and DTC eligibility, Mr. Celenza commented "These are very exciting times for Cizzle Brands, as we continue to gain momentum both in the capital markets, and in the consumer packaged goods space. We have worked hard to generate measurable value for our shareholders, hitting key milestones and driving growth that can be leveraged to further scale our business. Graduating to a higher tier on the OTC Markets and DTC eligibility are important steps for reaching American investors, as we look forward to providing more investors around the world with the opportunity to take part in elevating the game in health and wellness by investing in Cizzle Brands." Cizzle Brands' Head of Corporate Development Setti Coscarella commented, "In less than two months since our market debut, Cizzle Brands' common shares are now traded in three different countries, and we are pleased to have had our U.S. ticker CZZLF graduated to the OTCQB market along with DTC eligibility. This development is meaningful because our investor base is now positioned to benefit from improved liquidity, and reduced barriers for U.S. investors to buy Cizzle Brands' common shares through their preferred broker-dealer. The year of 2025 continues to bring about many great achievements for Cizzle Brands, and we are truly just getting started."
