Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX, LEXXW), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, today provided an annual letter from CEO Chris Bunka and a thorough strategic update to all stakeholders. In the update, Bunka described Lexaria’s key area of focus to improve the company’s understanding of the capabilities of its ground-breaking DehydraTECH(TM) drug-delivery technology to enhance its abilities to commercialize and profit from this technology platform. “DehydraTECH is not an EVOLUTION of existing technology – it is a REVOLUTIONARY new drug delivery platform,” Bunka explains in the letter. “Expecting entire industries to change overnight to adopt a revolutionary new process is not realistic: it takes time, evidence and a lot of positive results to overcome industry inertia. We have long been hopeful that, before the end of 2022, we will have built sufficient data to effect meaningful industry and/or regulatory progress and sustainable increases in valuation… Before 2022 ends, we expect to have at least one major regulatory advancement such as an IND program approval, or one major new industry partner. We believe either of those will support what could be significantly higher valuations. If we are able to achieve more than one of these advancements…so much the better.”

About Lexaria Bioscience Corp.
Lexaria’s patented drug delivery technology, DehydraTECH(TM), improves the way active pharmaceutical ingredients (“APIs”) enter the bloodstream by promoting more effective oral delivery.

The technology is also being evaluated for orally administered anti-viral drugs, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (“NSAIDs”), PDE5 inhibitors and more. DehydraTECH has also evidenced an ability to deliver some drugs more effectively across the blood brain barrier.
