TORONTO, March 26, 2019 /CNW/ – SOL Global Investments Corp. (“SOL Global” or the “Company”) (CSE: SOL) (OTCQB: SOLCF) (Frankfurt: 9SB) is pleased to announce its investment in leading premium soda-maker Jones Soda Co. (“Jones Soda“) (OTCQB: JSDA).

SOL Global has acquired 3,396,049 common shares of Jones Soda in the open market. SOL Global’s total investment represents approximately 8.19% of the total issued and outstanding common shares of Jones Soda which, based on publicly available information, makes it the company’s largest stockholder. SOL Global has filed a Schedule 13D with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission describing its investment in Jones Soda.

The Seattle-based Jones Soda Co., founded in 1986, is known for its wide variety of flavored craft sodas, made with pure cane sugar and other high-quality ingredients. The company’s most recent product launch, Jones Ginger Beer – as well as two new sugar-free soda flavors – join its core brands including its Jones Soda product line, Jones Carbonated Candy, and Lemoncocco, a premium non-carbonated drink made with high-quality lemon and coconut flavors. Jones Soda is sold in eye-catching glass bottles and cans and in fountains at restaurants and is distributed throughout North America. The company continues to innovate its core brands as demand for healthier sodas that contain high-quality ingredients grows and has also redeveloped the majority of its product line using colors derived from natural sources.

“Jones Soda has an iconic, retro brand in the Soda Bottle and Fountain Beverage sector, and we believe the company’s true value will be recognized by the market as its new offerings gain steam,” said SOL Global Chief Investment Officer Andy DeFrancesco. “It is clear that Jones Soda is committed to being on the front lines of innovative product development, while staying true to their iconic brand.”

SOL Global believes there are numerous operational and strategic opportunities to maximize shareholder value in Jones Soda. SOL Global will review its investment in Jones Soda on a continuing basis and reserves the right to take any action with respect to its investment it deems appropriate, including, but not limited to, purchasing additional common shares of Jones Soda, selling some or all of the common shares that SOL Global holds, or otherwise modifying its investment strategy with regard to Jones Soda.

The Global Non-Alcoholic Beverage Market

The non-alcoholic beverage marketplace is estimated to generate a revenue of approximately USD$1.2 trillion by 2023, according to Markets and Research analysis. Companies employing innovative marketing strategies, more flavor choices, and the use of natural, high-quality ingredients will continue to drive market growth in the category.
