True Drinks CEO Update to Shareholders


IRVINE, CA-- (Marketwire December 5, 2014) True Drinks, Inc. (OTC BB: TRUU).


Dear Shareholders,


I wanted to take the time to share with each of you some significant progress that we have made during the fourth quarter. In November, we completed our largest month, topping $1 million in sales for the first time. Our ability to create demand in new markets through our new Direct Store Distributor (DSD) partners has resulted in incremental distribution, including over 1,000 new retail locations in New York City, and we are adding new DSD partners in the Midwest in December.  Additionally, our sales at Walmart have been steadily increasing over the last eight weeks with both units and store count trending up.


In November, we shipped over 185,000 cases to 612 Sams Club locations. This weekend, we are participating in a product demo program in all clubs nationwide resulting in exposure for AquaBall to Sams Club members during the peak holiday season. In addition, AquaBall is participating in their digital coupon program which is distributed to over 8 million business members.


Over the past two weeks, we have experienced a drop in our stock price. We recognize that there is considerable volatility in the small- to micro-cap market today, however, we remain focused on the continued development of AquaBallTM Naturally Flavored Water and meeting internal objectives. We continue to remain optimistic and look forward to achieving key milestones in 2015.   


We recognize and appreciate our shareholders ongoing support as we finish out 2014. The coming year will be pivotal in the evolution of True Drinks, and we are working hard to build long-term sustainable growth and to maximize shareholder value.


Lance Leonard

Director and Chief Executive Officer
