Remediation to GMP

Product in Germany
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, April 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HYTN Innovations Inc. (CSE:
HYTN, FSE: 85W0, OTC Pink: HYTNF) (“HYTN” or the “Company”), a pharmaceutical manufacturer
specializing in products containing psychoactive and psychotropic compounds, is pleased to
announce the commercial launch of Hermetic Autogenous Remediation™ (“HARd”) as a service
offering for qualied dried cannabis ower programs.
HARd is HYTN’s proprietary remediation process for dried cannabis ower, developed and validated
within the Company’s GMP quality systems. The process is designed to reduce microbial burden
while preserving the structural, organoleptic and chemical characteristics of dried cannabis ower.
According to the Company’s validation work and third-party analytical testing, HARd has
demonstrated signicant microbial reduction across evaluated cannabis cultivars, including multi-
log reductions in Total Aerobic Microbial Count, Total Yeasts and Moulds Count, and Bile-Tolerant
Gram-Negative organisms. In many evaluated cases, post-process ndings were reported at levels
intended to support qualication against stringent microbiological specications associated with
inhalation drug specications under the European Pharmacopoeia.
The Company notes that HARd does not rely on external thermal input, ionizing or non-ionizing
radiation, chemical fumigation, or dehydration-based remediation methods. HYTN believes these
process characteristics are relevant for counterparties seeking a remediation pathway intended to
support product quality while maintaining key physical and chemical attributes within tightly
controlled quality and regulatory frameworks, including EU-GMP-aligned programs.
The Company further notes that dried cannabis ower processed using HARd has now been
released in Germany under a commercial program, demonstrating the practical application of the
process within a regulated international supply context. While that product release should not be
interpreted as regulatory approval of HARd as a methodology, it does demonstrate the process has
been applied in a commercial setting.
HYTN intends to offer HARd as a service to domestic and international counterparties seeking a
remediation solution developed within an EU-GMP-aligned quality framework. The Company notes
that HARd is best described as a proprietary process developed and validated within such a
framework and should not be interpreted as an independently certied system or as regulatory
approval of the methodology itself. The Company believes this service offering complements its
broader GMP processing and international market development activities, including activities in
Germany, the United Kingdom and Australia.
“We’ve built HARd to address a practical market need,” said Jason Broome, Chief Operating Ofcer
of HYTN. “We believe there is demand for a remediation service developed within a GMP
environment, supported by validation work, and designed to preserve the characteristics that
matter in premium dried cannabis ower programs, particularly for counterparties operating in
markets where non-irradiation pathways may be commercially important, including Germany.”
The Company expects HARd service engagements to be assessed on a program-by-program basis,
including technical t, quality requirements, commercial terms, and the applicable regulatory
framework for the intended market.
There can be no assurance that any particular third party engagement, regulatory pathway, export
opportunity, or commercial outcome will result from the launch of HARd as a service offering.
