June 5, 2025

Vancouver, British Columbia, June 5, 2025 -- Cannabix Technologies Inc. (CSE: BLO) (OTC PINK: BLOZF) (Frankfurt: 8CT) (the “Company or Cannabix”) reports that Omega Laboratories Inc. of Ohio, USA (“Omega Laboratories” or “Omega”) a leading drug testing laboratory renowned for its comprehensive services has delivered a Validation Packet for Omega’s Laboratory Developed Test Method to test delta9 THC analytes in relation to the Cannabix Marijuana Breath Test (“MBT”) technology. The Validation Packet was performed in Omega’s ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory environment following their Quality Management System.

This validation included a test method for the simultaneous quantification of Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), Δ-8-THC, cannabidiol (CBD), and cannabinol (CBN) in breath aerosols collected using Cannabix Technologies’ Breath Collection Unit (BCU) and Breath Cartridges (BC). The delivery of the Validation Packet completes a major milestone under the strategic partnership and development agreement (“SPDA”) between Cannabix and Omega. This establishes Omega and Cannabix as the premier technology for collecting and testing breath for recent marijuana usage. Cannabix’s MBT is a lab-based, collect and send solution, focused on “recent use” detection of delta-9 THC as opposed to urine, blood and saliva methods (that can detect delta-9 THC many hours, days, or even weeks after consumption).

Omega Laboratories is an international industry leader in forensic drugs of abuse testing for over twenty years. Omega has multiple federal as well as international certifications and accreditations for its world class facility and has extensive experience in novel technology for detection of drugs of abuse.

Omega Laboratories is currently integrating breath testing using Cannabix Breath Cartridges into its suite of services and testing protocols. Among various initiatives underway the Company and Omega are working together on marketing, distribution, support, manufacturing and logistics for the MBT.\

Under the SPDA, in consideration for the completion and delivery of the Validation Packet by Omega, the Company will convert 3 million Special Warrants into Special Warrant Shares to Omega. Furthermore, Omega will have the right to appoint one person to the board of directors of the Company in due course.
