--Acquisition Includes Revenue Producing Assets in Haynesville Shale of Louisiana and Delaware Basin of Texas--

FRISCO, TEXAS, March 24, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire -- Verde Bio Holdings, Inc. (OTC: VBHI) today announced that it has closed on the Haynesville Shale portion of a previously announced purchase as well as another property located in Reeves County, Texas, for a combined purchase price of $127,500. Verde is entitled to the cash flow on both properties from production attributable to the acquisition beginning on or after March 1, 2021. The two deals bring the total number of acquisitions to six for the Company to date.

Scott Cox, Director and Chief Executive Officer of Verde Bio Holdings, said, "These two properties are great additions to our portfolio of high-quality, revenue producing assets. We continue to identify and acquire a good balance of oil and gas properties which add value across the board and help to build a world-class portfolio. 

“We are fortunate to have funding and to be at the right place at the right time to take advantage of these deals during this time of great buying opportunities. Deals like this continue to confirm and highlight our business plan of acquiring diversified mineral and royalty portfolios with the downturn of oil and gas prices.

“We have acquired the right balance of oil and natural gas in the existing producing wells and future drilling locations as well as high quality operators.  We remain focused on executing our business plan and creating long-term value for our shareholders,” Mr. Cox said.

o    Six wells currently in production across the acquired acreage producing approximately $2,500 per month in revenue.

Mr. Cox continued: “We are excited about the growth opportunities with this package, both through the drill bit as well as through a rise in commodity prices and optimistic about the future development of these assets for many years to come.
