Exhibit 99.1

 

MassRoots’ Stock Expected to Begin Trading April 9, 2015

 

MassRoots’ Common Stock Has Been Approved for Trading Under the Ticker Symbol “MRST”

April 7, 2015 (Denver, CO) MassRoots, Inc. (OTC: MSRT), one of the largest and most active social networks for the cannabis community, is pleased to announce that its shares of common stock have been approved for trading by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and are expected to begin trading on April 9, 2015 under the ticker, "MSRT." Sitting at the intersection of mobile technology and cannabis, MassRoots offers a direct play on the cannabis industry without ever touching the plant itself.

Since January 1, 2014, MassRoots has grown its user base from 20,000 to 275,000 cannabis consumers. People primarily use MassRoots to share their cannabis experiences, gain information on the cannabis industry, and stay connected with local dispensaries. Over the coming months, MassRoots expects to expand the features available to businesses, allowing them to more effectively advertise to a niche social network of hundreds of thousands of cannabis consumers.


Isaac Dietrich, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of MassRoots, issued the following statement:


"We decided to take MassRoots public last year to give our users and the general public an opportunity to own equity in our Company. During recent years, many high-growth tech startups have chosen to remain private for longer periods of time, restricting access to their stock to “accredited” and a limited number of non-accredited investors. We believe that by accessing the public markets, we can build a broad shareholder base and continue to develop MassRoots into a leading cannabis software brand.”


As one of the first cannabis-related companies to go public through a Form S-1 Registration Statement, MassRoots' risk factors, corporate history and audited financials are available to the public on our website at Corporate.MassRoots.com. MassRoots' 2014 Annual Report and audited financials, along with other SEC filings, are also available at Corporate.MassRoots.com.

 

MassRoots expects its application to be listed on the OTCQB will be approved before the stock begins trading on April 9, 2015.
