SEATTLE, WASHINGTON / ACCESS Newswire / March 11, 2025 / (OTC Pink:CBDW), a pioneer in AI-powered IR, is pleased to announce that it has signed a non-binding Letter of Intent (LOI) with a private group led by Jon Garfield and Chuck Arnold which is focused on acquiring waste management companies, to acquire a controlling position in the Company for $1 million. This agreement marks a significant milestone for 1606 Corp. as the group moves to acquire a controlling position in the Company for $1 million, with consideration specifics to be negotiated at a later date in definitive agreements. It is anticipated that key management within 1606 Corp. will remain with the Company post-acquisition.

The non-binding LOI outlines the terms under which the group will pursue the acquisition of 1606 Corp, with the goal of utilizing the Company's expertise and resources to drive growth and deliver greater value to stakeholders. The transaction, which is subject to customary due diligence, regulatory approvals, and execution of definitive agreements, is expected to close in the coming months.
The acquisition of the controlling position would provide the group with a public company to expand into waste management, while enabling them to tap into an industry that is vital to environmental sustainability and urban development. The group would also use 1606 Corp.'s AI technologies to innovate within the waste management sector.
1606 has developed a cutting-edge AI platform and launched successful applications across a range of industries, including CBD, public companies, and other verticals.

We believe this proposed acquisition of a controlling position would position 1606 Corp. for continued success, with a strong commitment to preserving its culture and building upon its existing strengths.
