ImmuDyne Announces Management Changes & Sale of Legacy
Manufacturing Business
New York, N.Y., January 30, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ImmuDyne,
Inc. (OTCQB:IMMD) ("Immudyne" or the "Company"), a leader in the development and online marketing of OTC
health and wellness products addressing large unmet needs, today announces the sale of its Yeast Beta Glucan manufacturing business,
the resignation of Mark McLaughlin as President & CEO, and the appointment of Justin Schreiber as the Company's President
Sale of Yeast Beta Glucan Manufacturing Business
As Immudyne has successfully pivoted to direct-to-consumer marketing
over the last two years, and this has become the Company's primary source of revenue, the Company believes it to be in the
best interest of shareholders to divest of non-core assets, such as our legacy beta glucan manufacturing business. Immudyne entered
into a definitive sale agreement with a third party that will acquire 100% of the assets and liabilities of this business unit.
Immudyne will receive net cash proceeds of approximately $850,000 from this transaction.
"The majority of Immudyne's revenue growth over
the past 24 months has come from our online direct to consumer marketing business," stated Justin Schreiber, Immudyne's
incoming President & CEO. "This business is now profitable and growing with a robust pipeline of products that will be
launching in 2018. Our decision to monetize our non-core manufacturing business will drastically shrink our overall corporate burn
rate, increase profitability, and provide Immudyne with non-dilutive cash that we believe can be used to scale our business."
Resignation of Mark McLaughlin as President, CEO & Director
In conjunction, Mark McLaughlin has
resigned from his role as President & CEO of Immudyne and from the Company's board of directors. Mr. McLaughlin was one
of several individuals that agreed to purchase the manufacturing business from Immudyne, and he will continue to operate the business
as a private company. The new private company will continue to supply yeast beta glucan to the Company on favorable terms.
"It's been my pleasure
to serve as President & CEO of Immudyne for the past 5 years," stated Mark McLaughlin. "Immudyne's direction
has changed considerably since the acquisition of our online marketing division over 2 years ago, and I agree with the board of
directors' decision to divest of our legacy manufacturing business and refocus the company's resources on what has
become our core business. I look forward to following the success of the Company."
Concurrent with his resignation, Mr.
McLaughlin has agreed to sell 2,800,000 shares of Immudyne common stock to a third-party affiliated with Justin Schreiber and Stefan
Galluppi, Immudyne's CEO and CTO.
Appointment of Justin Schreiber
as President & CEO of Immudyne, Inc.
Justin Schreiber has been appointed
Immudyne's President & Chief Executive Officer. He is also a member of Immudyne's board of directors. Mr. Schreiber

business. Mr. Schreiber is the founder of JLS Ventures, LLC, a San Juan based venture investment and advisory firm that specializes

"I am very excited about Immudyne's
growth prospects in the coming years," stated Mr. Schreiber. We've invested heavily over the past 2 years to build
what I believe is one of the best online marketing teams in the world. We intend to aggressively grow revenue, launch a variety
of new products, and uplist the company to a national stock exchange in 2018."
