TEL AVIV, Israel, Oct. 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SciSparc Ltd. (NASDAQ:SPRC) ("Company" or "SciSparc"), a specialty clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focusing on the development of therapies to treat disorders and rare diseases of the central nervous system, announced today the closing of the transactions under the asset and share purchase agreement by and among the Company, Miza III Ventures Inc. and SciSparc Nutraceuticals Inc. (the "Agreement"). Pursuant to the Agreement, SciSparc received a controlling interest in Neurothera Labs Inc. (formerly known as Miza III Ventures Inc.) (TSXV:NTLX) ("Neurothera"), a publicly traded company on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") in Canada, and the Company transferred to Neurothera its advanced clinical stage pharmaceutical portfolio and its equity stake of approximately 51% in SciSparc Nutraceuticals Inc.

The Payment Warrants entitle SciSparc to acquire one common share of Neurothera at a price of CAD 0.25 per common share until October 22, 2030. Following the closing of the transaction, SciSparc holds a controlling interest in Neurothera of approximately 75%, which may increase up to approximately 84% assuming the exercise in full of the Payment Warrants and fulfillment of all of the pre-determined milestones.
