Point Roberts WA, Delta BC, November 1, 2019 – (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a global news source and leading investor resource announces its weekly roundup of stocks added to its global stock directories in cannabis, biotech and tech.


This week’s new cannabis companies are both CSE-listed and are involved in COextraction and financing for the cannabis industry, respectively.

The latest biotech/life sciences companies are all October Nasdaq IPOs.

The newest tech companies are both CSE-listed and are involved in cloud computing and IoT & AI, respectively.

New Cannabis Companies:
MedXtractor Corp. (CSE:MXT) is a Calgary-based company that manufactures patented, proprietary small-scale carbon dioxide-based extractors that are used to extract essential oils and compounds from a variety of botanical materials. At present, the Corporation targets the "Craft" cannabis grower. Craft growers are those whose crop is up to 800 indoor-sized plants per crop cycle. In management's opinion, CO2 Extractors represent the state-of-the-art for high-potency, high-purity oils, one of the fastest growing segments of the overall cannabis market. Cannabis oils can be extracted from flowers (bud), trim (leaves) and/or post-pressed rosin "chips" (leftovers from hydraulic press extraction). The ongoing worldwide legalization of cannabis is underpinning the rapidly growing demand for cannabis products with major growth seen in oils due to their utility as feedstock for various ingestion methods. The Corporation owns the patents on its CO2 Extractors.

Primo Nutraceuticals Inc. (CSE:PRMO) formerly Bougainville Ventures Inc - provides strategic capital to the thriving cannabis cultivation sector through ownership and development of commercial real estate properties. We offer fully built out turnkey facilities equipped with state-of-the-art growing infrastructure to cannabis growers and processors. Cultivators lease these facilities and pay affordable fee-based management costs to accelerate market entry and scalability. The first 10,000 square feet of greenhouse space in Oroville, Washington has been completed and is ready for occupancy. Our facilities remove financial barriers for cannabis cultivators as traditional funding is limited due to United States federal laws and current lending practices.

The Search for #CBD Products – How Real Brands (OTC: $RLBD) and (NYSE: $ACB), (NYSE: $APHA), (OTC: $TGIFF) Meet Growing Demand

The Search for #CBD Products – How Real Brands (OTC: $RLBD) and (NYSE: $ACB), (NYSE: $APHA), (OTC: $TGIFF)  Meet Growing Demand

Point Roberts WA, Delta BC – November 1, 2019 - Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resource covering cannabis and hemp stocks releases a sector snapshot reporting on the growth of the CBD industry and how companies are looking to differentiate their unique brands.


According to a report ‘Trends in Internet Searches for Cannabidiol (CBD) in the United States’, Google searches for CBD are seeing exponential growth as popularity and availability increases. ”Searches for CBD are now rivaling searches for yoga and electronic cigarettes, with 0.96 and 0.85 of their respective search volumes, and are searched for more than half as much as dieting.”

Another recent report stated, “As applications for cannabidiol are brought to market across diverse industries such as cosmetics, health products, food and beverage, pet products, skin care, and pharmaceuticals, the collective market for CBD sales is expected to exceed $20 billion in the United States by 2024,” according to BDS Analytics and Arcview Market Research.

“We’re witnessing CBD maturing from a cannabis sub-category into a full-blown industry of its own,” said Roy Bingham, Co-Founder and CEO of BDS Analytics. “Our growth forecast for the CBD market, across all distribution channels, predicts a compound annual growth rate of 49 percent by 2024. This is a great opportunity for all involved, but it means the road ahead will include decisions that need to be informed by the best possible data.”

As major retailers continue to announce their stocking and private label development of CBD products, BDS Analytics predicts that the majority of CBD product sales will soon occur in general retail stores, rather than cannabis dispensaries, as is currently the case. Moving forward, BDS Analytics market insights indicate that the success of products is dependent on education and understanding, dosing and consistent labeling.

BDS Analytics feels CBD is in a unique position compared to other nutraceutical or supplement ingredients for two reasons: 1) as an active ingredient in cannabis, it has a storied history of health and wellness use and anecdotal evidence of efficacy, and 2) it is one of the few natural remedies with scientific basis for at least some of the claims being made about its curative powers. Unsurprisingly, consumers are fascinated by the perceived benefits of CBD.

This growth and drive of the CBD industry is bringing in major branding opportunities such as sports and celebrity endorsements for each innovative formula.

Real Brands, Inc. (OTC: RLBD), a leading brand building company in the legal Hemp-Derived CBD consumer products category, announced that it has closed the previously announced acquisition of the proprietary CBD formulas from Integrative Medicine US of Coral Springs, Florida. The formulas consist of Ancient Chinese and other Ancient Herbal Remedies that are paired with the latest scientific breakthroughs in endocannabinoid systems, nutrients and hemp-derived CBD.

“We are pleased to announce the signing of the definitive agreement to acquire these proprietary formulas," said Real Brands, Inc. CEO, Jerry Pearring. “Since completing our audit earlier this month, we are now focusing on launching our brands and E-commerce website,” added Pearring. “We are concluding the final steps in developing our unique packaging design and formulations for each of our brands: CBD Pharmacy™, HempAid®, Humboldt Brands® and Omegahemp™. This acquisition bolsters our efforts to offer consumers innovative CBD products and, as we previously announced, we intend to use these formulas for our CBD Pharmacy™ brand and feature the Chinese symbol for healing in our new logo.”

In addition, as part of this acquisition, Jonathan Fields, AP DOM, has entered into an agreement to formulate additional products for Real Brands and become the initial member of Real Brands, Inc.’s Advisory Board. “I’m pleased to become a member of the Real Brands team and look forward to applying my education and ongoing research into traditional eastern medical therapies to create delivery mechanisms that act synergistically with CBD,” said Fields.

Aphria Inc. (TSX: APHA) (NYSE: APHArecently reported its results for the first quarter ended August 31, 2019, with a net revenue of $126.1 million in the first quarter, an increase of 849% from prior year quarter and a decrease of 2% from the prior quarter, revenue for adult-use cannabis of $20.0 million in the first quarter, an increase of 8% from the prior quarter and a net income of $16.4 million and adjusted EBITDA of $1.0 million in the first quarter.

"We are pleased to report a second consecutive quarter of profitable growth with strong contribution from our Canadian cannabis operations. Our success was also driven by our international business and the strength and growth of our brands, particularly Broken Coast, despite a small fire at our British Columbia facility at the end of the quarter. This solid start to the year keeps us on track to achieve our fiscal year 2020 financial outlook," stated Irwin D. Simon, CEO of Aphria, Inc. "Going forward, we remain focused on our highest-return priorities both in Canada and internationally as our team furthers the development of our medical and adult-use cannabis brands to drive growth through innovation and return value to shareholders."

The company, through its subsidiary Aphria Deutschland GmbH launched their CBD-based nutraceutical, featuring CBD derived from hemp, CannRelief. The brand of products are being produced in the European Union and distributed by the Company's subsidiary, CC Pharma, which has access to more than 13,000 pharmacies throughout Germany.

"We are excited to introduce our first brand of CBD products for the German nutraceutical and cosmetics market," said Jakob Ripshtein, President of Aphria. "Supported by our extensive distribution network through CC Pharma, CannRelief provides a natural extension to Aphria's growing business opportunities in the German medical cannabis market. We look forward to providing a full range of CannRelief CBD products this year."

CannRelief CBD oils are being sold in both a 5% and 10% CBD concentration and can be found in select stores across Germany. A range of skincare and other products, including creams, serums and masks will be introduced under the CannRelief brand in a phased rollout in 2019.

Aurora Cannabis Inc. (NYSE: ACB) (TSX: ACB), a Canadian company that's defining the future of cannabis worldwide, and the UFC, the world's premier mixed martial arts organization, announced their launch of a joint clinical research program that will produce multiple studies under the terms of their recently announced partnership.

The ground-breaking research partnership is aimed at understanding key health and recovery needs of elite athletes in such a highly physical and competitive sport as mixed martial arts. Research data will then be used to drive the development of science-backed, hemp-derived CBD topicals that will be safe and reliable. These new products will help combat the rapidly growing market of untested CBD treatments currently being used by high-performance and non-professional athletes.    

Once research is complete, any resulting product will come to life in the US under the new high-performance sports brand ROAR Sports, a portfolio of high-quality, hemp-derived CBD topical treatments scientifically formulated with elite athletes in mind. Through analysis of athlete needs and scientific data, ROAR Sports will challenge the status quo, seek to alleviate the stresses of competition, and earn designation as the "Official CBD product of UFC."

The multi-phase clinical study at the UFC Performance Institute® in Las Vegas will be led by Dr. Jason Dyck, Chair of Aurora's Global Scientific Oversight Committee; Dr. Kelly Narine, Aurora's Vice President Global Research and Medical Affairs; and the team of sports performance experts at the UFC Performance Institute, led by Dr. Duncan French, UFC Vice President of Performance. Using active UFC athletes on a strictly voluntary basis, the study will help establish peer-reviewed, publishable research in this area. Products will be developed in full compliance with U.S. federal law and with UFC's anti-doping program, which adheres to WADA and USADA regulations.

"Our partnership with UFC is about committing to the science that will educate and advocate," said Aurora CEO, Terry Booth. "We are going to work together to change the way people think, to change the industry, and to launch the first hemp-derived CBD products that are backed by scientific research. The brand-building and product development are all part of our move into the U.S., and in collaboration with UFC, and we intend to play a major role in that market."

"We know anecdotally that professional athletes across sports disciplines are turning to hemp-derived CBD treatments to assist with physical recovery, with varying degrees of success," added Jason Dyck, Chair of Aurora's Global Scientific Oversight Committee. "The work we do in partnership with UFC will create an evidence-based, science-backed pipeline of consistent, and 'clean' hemp-derived CBD topicals that the high-performance athletes of UFC can rely on to treat the pain, inflammation, injury and other conditions associated with competing at such a high level."

"Collaborating with Aurora is the best way to educate ourselves and our fighters about the impact of CBD on MMA athletes and our sport," said Dr. Duncan French, UFC's Vice President of Performance. "We want to apply science and see where it leads us.  Ideally, these studies will give us the clarity we need to determine the effectiveness of hemp-derived CBD on athlete health and injury recovery." 

"Although CBD is allowed under USADA and WADA regulations, we want to be the leaders on educating UFC athletes on CBD use," said Jeff Novitzky, UFC Senior Vice President of Athlete Health & Performance. "Athlete safety is a top priority for UFC, and we will collaborate with Aurora to ensure that any new products are third-party tested for all WADA-prohibited substances to make certain they meet WADA standards."

1933 Industries Inc. (CSE: TGIF) (OTC: TGIFF), a vertically integrated cannabis consumer packaged goods company, recently announced that it will introduce its newest product, the Birdhouse CBD Balm by Canna Hemp X™, on November 4th, 2019. The CBD Balm was developed in collaboration with Birdhouse Skateboards™, targeting the action sports market and will be available for sale in dispensaries, wellness stores, skate shops and specialty retailers, including Zumiez in the United States.

Focusing on the wellness market through the creation of innovative products that enhance and improve people's lives, the Company's CBD-infused line is nationally recognized for its quality and purity of ingredients. Building on its already successful Canna Hemp X™ brand, the new Birdhouse CBD Balm is a must-have for any athlete in need of fast results before, during, and after exercise. The quick-acting Birdhouse CBD Balm is specially formulated with a blend of essential oils, arnica, peppermint, menthol and other natural ingredients. With broad-spectrum CBD, all Canna Hemp™ products are nanoparticulated to ensure total transdermal absorption for maximum effects, while being 100% THC-free.

The sports world is fast embracing the use of cannabidiol or CBD, one of over 100 non-psychoactive and non-addictive compounds extracted from the cannabis plant, in a variety of new products aimed at enhancing performance and recovery. Pro and amateur athletes are now advocating CBD as an alternative to opioid use. "We are just starting to scratch the surface of the many applications associated with the cannabis plant and we are pleased to be part of a national conversation about its potential. The anecdotal benefits keep mounting and we believe that this market is underserved," commented Mr. Chris Rebentisch, 1933 Industries CEO.

He added, "We constantly improve our formulations through research and we worked closely with the Birdhouse team over several months to develop a next-generation CBD topical product that would have wide appeal in the sports world. We are pleased to unveil the Birdhouse CBD Balm that both companies are proud to endorse."

Internationally recognized skateboarding legend Mr. Tony Hawk, Founder of Birdhouse Skateboards™ said, "The Birdhouse CBD Balm is our first collaboration with the team at Canna Hemp X™ and was created with skateboarders and athletes of all levels in mind. Sports like skateboarding require the highest quality recovery products to sustain longevity. We also hope to create awareness of the potential of CBD and in making natural products more accessible nationwide."

As this CBD industry continues to grow, in many ways almost independent of the cannabis sector, brand awareness will become essential as consumers gain more familiarity and awareness of the Hemp/CBD space. As one recent news piece put it, “CBD now has ‘a life of its own’”, and it will be the companies able to build their brands out early through sponsorship agreements, as well as show consistent quality of their innovative formulas that will stand ahead of the rest.

Delta, Kelowna, BC –October 31, 2019 (Investorideas.com Newswire) www.Investorideas.com, a global news source covering leading sectors including marijuana and hemp stocks and its potcast site, www.potcasts.ca  release today’s edition of Investorideas.com potcastsCM - cannabis news and stocks to watch plus insight from thought leaders and experts.

Listen to the podcast:



Good afternoon and welcome to another episode of Investorideas.com "Potcast" featuring cannabis news, stocks to watch as well as insights from thought leaders and experts

In today’s podcast we look at a few early announcements.

But first, Kanvas™, creator of innovative solutions designed to elevate the user experience for legal cannabis and cannabidiol (CBD) consumers, announced its Child-Resistant Disposable Vaporizer is the first all-in-one hardware solution to pass stringent child-resistant testing, delivering the market’s first certified child-resistant complete vape device.
Dedicated to consumer vape safety, Kanvas engineered the first-of-its-kind child-resistant vape pen utilizing an ingenious push-and-turn technology that disengages the battery to prohibit device operation. This patent-pending complete child-resistant solution was tested by an accredited laboratory to meet the Consumer Product Safety Commission’s (CPSC) standards for child-resistant packaging as stated in the Code of Federal Regulations Title 16, Section 1700.20. Additional benefits of Kanvas’ fail-safe design include prolonged battery life, auto-firing restriction and protection from the very first hit.
“We are proud to be the first in our industry to introduce an end-to-end vape solution with certified child-resistant functionality,” said Andy Fathollahi, Kanvas CEO. “Unlike devices from other hardware manufacturers, the Kanvas Child-Resistant Disposable Vaporizer is the first and only complete device that offers peace of mind out of the box. We have a tremendous engineering department that worked tirelessly to make our goal of child safety in the vape category a reality.”
The Child-Resistant Disposable Vaporizer is powered by Vapetelligence™, Kanvas’ exclusive temperature-controlled dosing technology, and secured with a DualLock snap-on compression fit mouthpiece that eliminates tampering and leaks. Composed of food-grade 18/10 stainless steel and a ceramic core, its undetectable levels of heavy metals are 10 times lower than the industry standard.


Valens GroWorks Corp. (TSXV: VGW) (OTCQX: VGWCF), a vertically integrated provider of industry leading extraction products and services; including a diverse suite of extraction methodologies, next generation cannabinoid delivery formats and an ISO 17025 accredited analytical lab announced a multi-year white label agreement with BRNT Ltd, a leading, premium, cannabis ancillary company to launch a line of unique cannabis vape pens in Canada. Under the terms of the Agreement, Valens will provide high-quality cannabis extracts, filling services and national distribution of a line of custom-formulated BRNT-branded vape pens.

The initial term of the Agreement will be for two years, with two successive one year renewal options, and relates to the production and sale of a guaranteed minimum of 2.2 million BRNT-branded vape pens, with the gross revenue potential to Valens under the Agreement of over $50 million in the first two years, all subject to final acceptance from provincial distributors, including of the proposed price per unit. Under the terms of the Agreement, the two parties will split economics through a profit share structure reflective of the respective efforts of each party.  Valens expects the first shipment under the Agreement to take place in the first fiscal quarter of 2020. The Company currently holds all required licensing from Health Canada to carry out its obligations under the Agreement.
BRNT is known for its rapid national growth, brand quality, industry experience and commitment to product excellence. BRNT currently participates in the ancillary products sector providing premium, high-quality cannabis accessories that are currently available in over 170 stores across Canada with international expansion underway including its newest line, Made By: a line of single-source cannabis extract vaporizers with uniquely designed hardware.

"As Valens begins official production of next generation products for Cannabis 2.0, we are excited to be collaborating with BRNT to bring to market a line of differentiated, high quality, concentrate vape products for Canadian consumers", said Tyler Robson, CEO of Valens GroWorks. "BRNT has shown impressive sales growth and market understanding through its ancillary offerings. In pairing their retail and product knowledge with Valens' processing and product development capabilities we believe this provides a solid foundation to provide a product with strong consumer appeal."

"Valens has demonstrated a commitment to cannabis extraction on a global scale that is driven by passion and quality. It was a natural fit for BRNT to collaborate with Valens to bring the Made By vaporizers brand to life with a partner that can mirror our globally recognized signature design aesthetic and brand development capabilities," said Simon Grigenas, CEO of BRNT Group. "BRNT and Valens are setting a new industry standard by creating meaningful brands and products through a focused, profitable approach, as opposed to the traditional vertical integration seen today."

Sundial Growers Inc. (NASDAQ: SNDL) has successfully entered the Prince Edward Island market, highlighting its intent to be in all Canadian provinces by the end of 2019. Sundial's products are now available in seven provinces.

The company recently announced that it will release its third quarter financial results on November 13, 2019 after Nasdaq market closing.

"P.E.I. has proven to have a keen cannabis culture, and we are looking forward to meeting the province's strong consumer demand for high-quality cannabis products," said Andrew Stordeur, President of Sundial's Canadian operations. "Islanders are sophisticated consumers who want a wide range of products to choose from. We are excited to add to P.E.I.'s product offerings, so that consumers can have the cannabis premium experiences they deserve," he added.

Geyser Brands Inc. (formerly Kanzen Capital Corp.) (TSX-V: GYSRannounced that it has signed a definitive joint venture agreement with Factory Brewing Ltd. (DBA "Craft Collective") to jointly develop, manufacture, market, and sell non-alcoholic cannabis-infused beverage brands in Canadian markets in two phases.

Pursuant to the terms of the JV Agreement, the Joint Venture will be structured as a new company, with two standing committees for the purpose of collaboration and cooperation on research, development and commercialization of its products. The first committee will be dedicated to identifying, developing and testing formulations for commercialization. The second committee will be dedicated to identifying and evaluating brands, including those brands owned by the Company and Craft Collective, for commercialization. Each committee will be comprised of 3 members from each of Geyser Brands and Craft Collective with the necessary expertise for each committee's mandate, with the Company appointing the Chair of each committee. The resulting NewCo will combine the craft beverage manufacturing, marketing and distribution expertise from Craft Collective with Geyser Brands' cannabis expertise, including leveraging its licensed producer facility, formulation expertise, and distribution channels.

Under the terms of the JV Agreement, the NewCo will immediately commence developing multiple product formulations and branding for both cannabis and non-cannabis products for introduction into the Canadian market. Craft Collective and NewCo will enter into a mutually agreeable non-cannabis product manufacturing and sales agreement in which Newco will outsource to Craft Collective the manufacturing and distribution of its non-cannabis products. Production of non-cannabis products will take place at Craft Collectives' facility in Vancouver, British Columbia. Upon receipt of regulatory approval for the production of cannabis products, Craft Collective and NewCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into a definitive agreement in connection with the day to day management of the NewCo by Craft Collective, on terms and conditions mutually agreeable and customary in a transaction of this nature. Subject to the terms of the JV Management Agreement, all cannabis products will be manufactured at Geyser Brands' licensed facility in Port Coquitlam, British Columbia.

Pursuant to the terms of the JV Agreement, Geyser Brands will have a 75% interest in the NewCo, with Craft Collective's 25% interest being reserved and issued upon completion of certain conditions outlined in the JV Agreement, including receipt of regulatory approval for the production of cannabis products, the execution of the JV Management Agreement and the execution of a mutually agreeable shareholder agreement . In the event the Issue Conditions are not satisfied or waived by Geyser Brands on or before December 31, 2019, or such other date as mutually agreed by the parties, there will be no obligation for NewCo to issue any interest to Craft Collective.

Aurora Cannabis Inc. (NYSE: ACB) (TSX: ACB), the Canadian company defining the future of cannabis worldwide, announced the launch of Ready for Edibles, a national bilingual campaign dedicated to educating new and experienced cannabis consumers on responsible consumption and safe storage of edibles products before  they become available for sale in December.                                             
In the visual style of Not Safe For Work (NSFW)¸the campaign creative will depict blurred images of cookies, gummies and other edibles products stamped with the wording: ADULTS ONLY, stating "Edibles are coming and they're not for kids. Ask a budtender or learn more at www.readyforedibles.com
The campaign can be seen at cannabis retail outlets across Canada and will be complemented online with digital assets as well as other out-of-home opportunities to connect with consumers.   
"The roll-out of Aurora's next generation of high-quality cannabis products is very exciting and we are proud to be able to offer new forms like vapes, concentrates and edibles," said Terry Booth, CEO of Aurora. "We want to make sure consumers have the information they need to understand the differences in these products, how to consume them responsibly, and most importantly, that they should be kept away from children and pets."
Educational content will also focus on identifying signs of over-consumption, understanding the differences in onset times and effects, cautions around mixing with alcohol and driving while intoxicated. All of Aurora's NextGen cannabis products, including cookies, gummies, chocolates and mints, will include the certified, lab-tested concentration of THC and CBD.

One World Pharma Inc. (OTC: OWPC), a fully licensed pure-play cannabis and hemp ingredient producer in Colombia, announced the upcoming launch of the cannabis industry’s first ‘Cannabis Futures’ program at their growing operations in Colombia. OWP’s program is designed to support and fuel projected global cannabis industry growth by allowing manufacturers to fix their price in advance for cannabis and hemp derived ingredients produced by OWP at space specifically allocated to each specific manufacturer at OWP’s cultivation facilities in Colombia. The commoditized approach to sourcing hemp and cannabis ingredients anticipates and recognizes the natural maturity of the legal cannabis market and offers manufacturers of consumer-packaged goods (CPG) an easy way to enter the cannabis products market with a consistent supply of ingredients and predictable pricing.

With the cannabis industry predicted to continue to rapidly expand, scalability is an imperative in cannabis. One World Pharma believes that the future of cannabis is as a commodity, similar to coffee beans or orange juice where ideal ingredients are grown and sold to major consumer brands. While other cannabis companies have focused on being vertical plays spanning from seed to customer-facing dispensaries, One World Pharma is a pure-play cannabis business focused on one thing- supplying high quality hemp and cannabis derived ingredients to consumer brands. The upcoming launch of its Cannabis Futures program will provide these brands with predictable pricing for consistent, high-quality cannabis ingredients that allow them to keep their retail product offering consistent both in the deliverable and pricing.

“At its core, One World Pharma isn’t just a cannabis company, we’re an ingredients company,” said Chief Executive Officer, Craig Ellins. “Cannabis is now a commodity just like coffee or soybeans. We’re not interested in competing with the big players getting into branded cannabis products. Instead, we want to supply and enable them. Our Cannabis Futures program will provide major beverage companies, foods companies, cosmetic companies and any other enterprise looking to combine cannabis-based ingredients with their product offering with a streamlined path to enter the cannabis market.”

The Futures program will allow One World Pharma’s customers to commit to purchase a fixed amount of hemp and cannabis derived ingredients that will be grown and processed specifically to their unique requirements on land exclusively dedicated to them. This will allow One World Pharma to offer these customers a predetermined, consistent price for this future product. Customers will be able to lock in stable pricing while One World Pharma will be able to more accurately predict its own recurring revenue and optimize its growing operations.

In the future, One World Pharma believes that this model could lead to the development of a global cannabis commodities exchange. “We want to be part of creating the long-term global financial and supply chain structures for the cannabis industry,” said Ellins. “Partnership is one of our core values and the foundation of our socially responsible practices. We believe that strong infrastructure and systems will benefit the entire industry.”

One World Pharma’s socially responsible partnerships with indigenous communities and local farmers in Colombia will offer scalability to support its Cannabis Futures program and service the needs of large manufacturers, while blending ancestral techniques with state-of-the-art technology in one of the most ideal cannabis-growing locations in the world.
