Today’s podcast overview/transcript:

Good morning and welcome to another Investorideas.com potcast – looking at cannabis news, stocks to watch as well as insights from thought leaders and experts.

Today we will be looking at announcements from The Supreme Cannabis Company, Inc. Trading on the TSX-Venture as FIRE, CannTrust Holdings Inc. trading on the TSX as TRST, Aurora Cannabis Inc. trading on the TSX as ACB and the OTCQB as ACBFF and Namaste Technologies Inc. trading on the TSX-Venture as N.

The Supreme Cannabis Company, Inc. announced that the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, 7ACRES, has entered into a supply agreement to provide dried cannabis to Tilray Canada Ltd., a subsidiary of Tilray Inc. (NASDAQ: TLRY), a global leader in cannabis research, cultivation, processing and distribution currently serving tens of thousands of patients in 11 countries spanning 5 continents.  
The value of this initial supply agreement is estimated to be in excess of C$2 million.  Dried cannabis provided to Tilray by 7ACRES will be used primarily to support medical cannabis patients in Canada, including Tilray's robust patient population.
CannTrust Holdings Inc. ,one of Canada's leading licensed producers and most trusted brands for medical cannabis, and Breakthru Beverage Group, the largest Canadian beverage alcohol broker of premium spirits, wine and beer brands, have announced the execution of a letter of intent for an exclusive partnership to represent CannTrust's specialty products to Canadian adult consumers for recreational use.  Breakthru will invest in the establishment of a cannabis-focused sales brokerage company and develop a route-to-market platform for CannTrust in Canada, effective when the adult-use recreational market opens October 17, 2018.   In addition, Breakthru is aligning as a strategic partner with CannTrust through a company investment, as it sees the organization as a long-term market share leader. The transaction remains subject to typical closing conditions, including the signing of a definitive agreement, completion of due diligence and TSX's approval of the private placement.
The respective regulatory regimes for recreational cannabis are in many ways similar to those currently in place for beverage alcohol across Canada.  Like Breakthru's leading role representing many of the top suppliers in the beverage alcohol industry, the sales brokerage operation will work, where permitted by law, directly with provincial control boards and designated retail outlets supporting the sales efforts for the CannTrust portfolio of products. 
The cannabis sales brokerage operation will reside in a newly-formed subsidiary of Breakthru Beverage Group and will be entirely separate from its beverage alcohol brokerage, Breakthru Beverage Canada. It will however leverage the company's North American business insights, strategies, technology and analytic tools to be a differentiator in the marketplace.
Aurora Cannabis Inc. and ICC Labs Inc. (TSX-V: ICC) announced today that the companies have entered into a definitive arrangement agreement pursuant to which Aurora intends to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of ICC for $1.95 per share (payable in common shares of Aurora, reflecting an aggregate purchase price of approximately $290 million. The Transaction has been unanimously approved by the Board of Directors of each ICC and Aurora.
Led by CEO Alejandro Antalich, a widely-recognized leader in the South American cannabis market with over 25 years of experience in the pharmaceutical sector, the acquisition of ICC will establish Aurora as the industry leader in South America, a continent with over 420 million people. ICC presently has over 70% market share in Uruguay, the first country in the world to legalize cannabis for adult consumer use. In addition, ICC holds licenses in Colombia for the production of medical cannabis.
The Transaction, once approved, creates a strong foundation for expansion, and will leverage ICC's first mover advantage in South America, bringing significant low-cost production capacity, a well-diversified product portfolio, and extensive distribution channels throughout South America and internationally.
Through this transaction there are many benefits to Aurora including:
CBD Rich Production, as Uruguay is the only country where regulations currently permit the cultivation of CBD-rich hemp on a commercial scale, allowing licensed producers to grow hemp with THC concentrations of up to 1%, providing a significant yield advantage over global competitors. ICC's deep background in pharma and the ability to grow low-cost CBD-rich hemp at very large scale, positions the companies exceptionally well to capitalize on global opportunities in the high-growth CBD wellness market.

As well, ICC recently launched its BIDIOL brand of CBD products, and is developing a broad international distribution network, including a presales agreement to export product to Mexico, a market with over 125 million people.
ICC is also progressing well towards the completion of a state-of-the-art large-scale extraction facility with capacity to process 150,000 kg of CBD feed per annum. Phase I of the facility is anticipated to be completed in October 2018, with the full facility online and operational by late 2018.
Also, ICC's new CBD extraction facility is strategically located approximately five minutes from the Canelones international airport and within Uruguay's "Science Park" free trade zone, exempting facility exports from any applicable local tax on exports and import
Whereas for ICC the Share Consideration represents a premium of approximately 34% on the 20 day volume-weighted average trading price of ICC Shares on the TSX-V for the period ending August 22, 2018, the last trading day prior to ICC issuing a news release in respect of a media report speculating as to a potential transaction involving the acquisition of ICC.
Aurora Shares are listed and posted for trading on the TSX, which will provide ICC shareholders with potentially greater liquidity.
Namaste Technologies Inc. announced that the Company has pre-launched its revolutionary medical cannabis online marketplace through its wholly-owned subsidiary, CannMart Inc. CannMart is poised to be Canada's first medical cannabis "sales-only" license under Health Canada's ACMPR program. The Company has pre-launched CannMart's website, CannMart.com, which will allow the Company to commence sales immediately after receiving its license. Receipt of its sales license, coupled with the official launch of CannMart.com, will represent the most significant achievement in the Company's history and will be the catalyst for Namaste introducing legal cannabis sales into its global e-commerce platform.
Namaste reported that it received communication from Health Canada on September 6th, 2018, and the Company would like to reaffirm that the application is progressing. CannMart's license, which is the first of its kind in Canada, will enable Namaste to procure and sell medical cannabis from both domestic and international Health Canada approved cultivators, which will be offered in an AI-driven e-commerce marketplace designed to provide a unique and personalized experience for each patient. Namaste has secured supply and holds inventory of a carefully curated selection of high-quality medical cannabis flower and oil.
