VANCOUVER, BC, March 24, 2022: SWMBRD Sports Inc. (CSE: SWIM) (“SWMBRD” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that the European Union Intellectual Property Office has awarded the Company an additional ten (10) Community Design Registrations (Industrial Design Patents).

These newly awarded designs are in addition to SWMBRD’s existing intellectual property portfolio, covering multiple embodiments of its unique swimboard design and associated accessories, as disclosed in the Company’s final long form prospectus (available on SEDAR, www.sedar.com).

The European Union Intellectual Property Office covers all 27 member states of the European Union, and a population of over 447,000,000 people.

“We are very pleased that these additional European Union Design Registrations have been granted,” says Justin Schroenn (President and CEO of SWMBRD Sports Inc.). “As discussed previously, the European Union is one of SWMBRD’s most important target markets. Not only is the spectacular Mediterranean Coastline from Spain to Greece one of the world’s premier tourism destinations, with the added market of a huge resident population, but we believe SWMBRD’s versatility brings the lakes and rivers of Central and Northern Europe into orbit as well. Given that European cars and apartments tend to be compact, management expects that SWMBRD’s ‘swim-abilty’, small size, lightness and ease of ownership, may make it a perfect aquatic product for the European consumer.

Having these European Design Registrations awarded strengthens SWMBRD’s position as developer of its proprietary swimboard, and serves as a strong foundation for future SWMBRD products, accessories, events, media and lifestyle products.”

SWMBRD’s expanding intellectual property portfolio continues to be a key strategic component of the Company’s growth. While SWMBRD does not divulge jurisdictions in which intellectual property applications are still pending, the Company is pleased to keep investors apprised of important jurisdictions in which applications have been successful, such the European Union Design Registrations recently granted.

We would like to thank Thomas Bailey and the team at Oyen, Wiggs, Green & Mutala LLP for all their efforts in helping to secure this very important accomplishment.”
