BHIC to buy hair-growth startup Vitalcore in diversification push

What's the deal? BioScience Health Innovations (BHIC) has agreed to acquire 100% of VitalcoreDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom →, a developer of hair-growth and scalp-care technology, which will become a wholly owned subsidiary on closing. The company disclosed the deal on November 5, 2026. Terms were not disclosed.

What else? In a separate transaction, BHIC agreed to buy a 40% stake in a customer relationship platform from Ageless Holdings, LLC. The platform has about 15,000 active peptide and wellness customers and has generated more than $5 million in sales so far in 2026.

The terms: BHIC will issue 450,000 restricted common shares to Ageless Holdings for the 40% interest — all the equity consideration contemplated across both deals. The Vitalcore purchase requires no additional shares.

What's the endgame? BHIC, which operates through its Best365Labs platform, wants to add a technology-driven category and an established audience without building one from scratch. It plans to develop Vitalcore beyond a single hair-growth product into scalp-care, skincare, and wellness applications.

What could go wrong? The customer-platform deal is with related party Ageless Holdings and will undergo governance, audit, and reporting review. BHIC also reported a first-half 2026 net loss of $415,660 and lower revenue year over year, making the quality of the underlying sales important to scrutinise.
