Today’s podcast overview/transcript:
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 of this week’s announcements.
Canada House Wellness Group Inc. (CSE: CHV) announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Abba Medix Corp., has now registered its 100th medical patient in less than three months. This news comes on the heels of Abba's January 22, 2020 announcement that it has added three additional strains to its product portfolio and now has a total of four strains available for sale to registered Abba patients. Abba anticipates its patient growth rates will rise sharply as awareness of Abba's excellent variety of dried flower spreads throughout the Canadian medical cannabis landscape, and more specifically to veteran medical patients.
"A key strategy of Canada House is to increase Abba's patient base by expanding relationships with users of medical cannabis and cannabis clinics across the country," says Canada House CEO Chris Churchill-Smith. "In addition, we have listened to our patients and have increased the selection of cannabis products to meet their needs. This important milestone drives Canada House and Abba revenues and demonstrates progress on Canada House's Path to Profitability."
"Registering Abba's 100th medical patient is an important milestone for our organization and is emblematic of our dedication to medical cannabis patients. We are committed to offering high quality strains that best serve those medical patients looking for solutions to a variety of health and wellness needs and as Abba's patient base continues to grow, we will strategically and selectively add complementary strains that our patients covet," said Michael Orrbrooke, Abba's President and the Chief Revenue Officer of Canada House. "In addition to offering a more comprehensive selection of strains, we intend to offer our products in new formats to provide our medical patients with many options while maintaining our industry leading customer service and online customer experience."
High Tide Inc. (CSE:HITI) (OTCQB:HITIF), an Alberta-based, retail-focused cannabis corporation enhanced by the manufacturing and wholesale distribution of smoking accessories and cannabis lifestyle products, has completed the acquisition of the Canna Cabana retail cannabis store in Hamilton, Ontario. The acquisition of the Hamilton Store, one of a limited number of premier cannabis retail stores operating in the province, marks the Company's first step towards acquiring its interest in all three current Canna Cabana locations across Ontario. The Hamilton Store has a strong operating history with unaudited gross sales exceeding $14 million for the nine months since opening on April 20, 2019, with gross margins of approximately 28%.
As consideration for the acquisition, High Tide paid to the vendor $2,097,816 in cash and issued to the Vendor 4,761,904 common shares in the capital of the Company. The Transaction, which was completed with the consent of the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario following the expiry of certain restrictions on change of control established under the rules applicable to the first cannabis retail lottery conducted by the AGCO on January 11, 2019. In connection with the Transaction, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of a numbered company that was wholly-owned by the holder of a cannabis retail store authorization issued by the AGCO in the First Lottery.
"High Tide is excited to add the Hamilton store to its corporately-owned portfolio of stores, with its large and loyal customer base and top-tier financial performance," said Raj Grover, High Tide's President & Chief Executive Officer. "Over the coming year, we look forward to growing our presence in the Ontario market and reaching the maximum of 10 stores per operator as quickly as possible," Mr. Grover added. Through this Transaction, High Tide has made its first move towards significantly expanding its retail network in Canada's most populous province.
PharmaCielo Ltd. (TSXV: PCLO) (OTCQX: PCLOF), the Canadian parent of Colombia's premier cultivator and producer of medicinal-grade cannabis extracts, PharmaCielo Colombia Holdings S.A.S., announced that it has entered into a three-year agreement with XPhyto Therapeutics Corp. (CSE:XPHY), whereby PharmaCielo will supply medicinal-quality cannabis extract oils and isolates, including those containing THC, to XPhyto for analysis, further processing, product development and manufacturing at its European Union Good Manufacturing Practice-certified facility in Biberach in the state of Baden-Württemberg, and thereafter for sale into the German market.
"PharmaCielo has a significant opportunity to export an ever-expanding range of medicinal products into the German market, including those containing THC, and we are very excited to work with XPhyto to leverage this opportunity," said David Attard, CEO of PharmaCielo Ltd. "As the largest medicinal cannabis marketplace in Europe, Germany is also the most demanding in terms of product quality. Our ability to meet market requirements for verifiable quality parameters was essential to establishing the relationship. We expect to generate meaningful revenue through this agreement over the next three years and are focused on continuing the ramp-up of our sales efforts through 2020."
XPhyto is a Canadian headquartered company focused on cannabinoid-based formulations and clinical validations. The company owns two German subsidiaries, Bunker Pflanzenextrakte GmbH and Vektor Pharma TF GmbH, and is expanding its current licensed German cultivation, processing and product R&D to address near-term medicinal product opportunities in the German marketplace.
MustGrow Biologics Corp. (CSE: MGRO) (OTC: MGROF), an agricultural biotech company developing and commercializing a portfolio of natural, science-based biological crop protection products, announced the filing of patents related to method-of-use and composition-of-matter claims for a biological non-selective bio-herbicide, based on MustGrow’s signature mustard-derived approach to controlling unwanted pests and diseases.
MustGrow has completed a series of application rate tests with Canada’s National Research Council to determine the applicability of MustGrow’s natural mustard-derived technology as a bio-pesticide. Using multiple application methods, herbicidal control was achieved after only 72 hours – controlling the trial plants from the root up. This strong data validates MustGrow’s natural science-based approach, utilizing the mustard seed’s natural defence mechanism, not only as a bio-pesticide, but also as a bio-herbicide.
MustGrow’s intellectual property suite is a platform for several crop protection categories, aiming to disrupt global agriculture markets that have traditionally been dominated by chemistry-based products. This filing enhances MustGrow’s current patent portfolio covering many crop protection categories. MustGrow’s existing patent portfolio protects both method-of-use and composition-of-matter claims for MustGrow’s signature mustard-derived approach to controlling unwanted pests, diseases, and now weeds.
“The efficacious properties of our active ingredient as a bio-pesticide, bio-nematicide and bio-herbicide represent a key milestone for MustGrow,” remarked MustGrow COO Colin Bletsky. “MustGrow has plans to further expand our data set and focus testing on hard to kill and herbicide-resistant weeds as well as to expand applications of our remarkable natural mustard-based technology.”

Today’s podcast overview/transcript:
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 of this week’s announcements.
VIVO Cannabis Inc. (TSXV: VIVO) (OTCQX: VVCIF) announced that its common shares will begin trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange effective as of market open on January 24, 2020, under the current trading symbol of VIVO. In conjunction with the TSX listing, the Common Shares will be voluntarily delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange.
"The strength of the Toronto Stock Exchange is world-class, and this event represents a tremendous milestone for VIVO," said Barry Fishman, Chief Executive Officer. "We believe the TSX listing will increase VIVO's exposure to a wider audience, increase trading liquidity and expand access to a large new pool of institutional investors."
VIVO has also successfully shipped cannabis 2.0 products from its Canna Farms facility to the provinces of Manitoba and Saskatchewan, with purchase orders to Alberta, Ontario and British Columbia expected to ship imminently.
VIVO also expects to make initial shipments of its Fireside™ chocolate products, which were created with the founders of award-winning Belgian chocolatier, ChocolaTas, to the provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Ontario, and its Fireside™ concentrates and vape products from its Vanluven facility to the provinces of Alberta, Ontario, British Columbia and New Brunswick, before the end of Q1 2020.
"We expect that by the end of Q1 2020, our cannabis 2.0 products will be available for sale in seven provinces, which is a significant achievement considering the recent opening of the market," Mr. Fishman continued. "We are proud of our suite of 2.0 products and look forward to our customers having the opportunity to experience them for themselves."
PharmaCielo Ltd. (TSXV: PCLO) (OTCQX: PCLOF), the Canadian parent of Colombia's premier cultivator and producer of medicinal-grade cannabis extracts, PharmaCielo Colombia Holdings S.A.S., announced that it has signed a three-year pan-European distribution agreement, in which the Company's high-grade CBD isolate and broad-spectrum CBD oil will be sold to wholesalers and medicinal CPG product manufacturers through GMP certified lab owner, CBD Export Global.
The Agreement with the Quebec, Canada-based CBD Export Global expands PharmaCielo's distribution network in Europe with shipments into the EU to commence in 2020 with increased volumes during the duration of the agreement as B2B markets are expanded. A minimum target volume of 2,000 kg has been agreed to in the first year of the three-year performance-based Agreement, allowing for confirmation of individual market regulatory approvals and enabling increased sales volume expansion in subsequent years.
"The agreement with CBD Export Global is part of PharmaCielo's second-phase growth strategy complementing the first phase in which we established one of the largest cultivation and extraction operations in Colombia and initiated global sales, and now in the second phase expanding the distribution network as production volumes increase on a daily basis to take our high-quality medicinal CBD extracts to global markets," says David Attard, Chief Executive Officer of PharmaCielo. "In 2019 we saw global demand for quality medicinal extracts increasing on an ongoing basis. In 2020 we are further expanding our distribution and sales channels. The collaboration with CBD Export Global will play a key role in our continued growth."
The distribution agreement with CBD Export Global is entered into with the intent of continued market expansion beyond 2019's experience successfully completing commercial shipments of CBD isolate from PharmaCielo to the U.S. and Switzerland.
Aphria Inc. (TSX: APHA) (NYSE: APHA) announced that it has entered into an agreement to accept a strategic investment from an institutional investor, pursuant to which the Significant Investor has agreed to purchase 14,044,944 units of the Company at a price of C$7.12 per unit for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of C$100,000,001.
Each unit is comprised of one common share of Aphria and one-half of one common share purchase warrant of Aphria. Each warrant will entitle the Significant Investor to acquire one common share at a price of $9.26 for a period of 24 months from the closing date of the Offering.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to finance international expansion, working capital and general corporate purposes.
The Offering is expected to close on or about January 31, 2020 and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange.
"Given the strength of our leadership team, the continued execution of our strategic plan and the robust opportunities we have for growth in the global cannabis industry, we were able to secure this additional capital from a single investor, a significant endorsement of Aphria in these market conditions," commented Carl Merton, Chief Financial Officer. "We expect this strategic investment to strengthen our balance sheet and propel Aphria forward as we continue to differentiate ourselves in the industry."
Hemp, Inc. (OTC: HEMP) a global leader in the industrial hemp industry with bi-coastal processing centers, has announced that it will be opening The King of Hemp Store™, its flagship, brick-and-mortar retail store at 330 East Beale Street in Kingman, Arizona.
The soft launch of The King of Hemp Store™ will take place on Saturday, Jan. 25, 2020, with a Grand Opening to follow. The 5,000 square foot retail space will be utilized for the store within a former Wells Fargo building in the entertainment district of Kingman or “Old Town Kingman”. The store will carry hemp and cannabidiol (CBD) topicals such as lotions, creams, shampoo, conditioner, luxury gifts and items such as gemstone encrusted hemp candles, high-quality hemp CBD pre-rolls, as well as industrial hemp products like hemp string and hemp denim jeans.
“We are proud to offer a wide range of hemp products that reflect the commitment Hemp, Inc. has to furthering the hemp revolution that is sweeping the nation,” said Dwight Jory, who has worked with Hemp, Inc. in various capacities, including as Project Manager for the Veteran Village Kins Community Arizona, Inc. “This store will provide education about hemp and also spark new local employment opportunities.”

Today’s podcast overview/transcript:
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 Investorideas interviews Matei Olaru, President and CEO of Lift and Co (TSXV: LIFT) (OTCQB: LFCOF) at the Lift and Co Expo Vancouver 2020, which took place January 9th to 11th in \Vancouver BC.
Lift & Co. Cannabis Expo Vancouver 2020 had a strong focus on Cannabis 2.0—edibles, topicals, concentrates—that have just started to appear in stores. According to a recent report by Lift & Co. and EY Canada, 70% of consumers did not know what they were going to purchase before entering a cannabis store, highlighting an ongoing need for brand and product education and awareness.
“The Lift & Co. Expo has become a launchpad for Canadian brands and new products, and the mainstage for our industry’s top thought leaders,” said Matei Olaru, CEO of Lift & Co. “This year’s focus on consumer intelligence, and our joint keynote with EY Canada and Nielsen in particular, speak to the evolution of our show and the maturation of the industry.”
This event comes on the heels of the launch of Lift & Co.’s consumer insights platform Cohesion in 2019, and recently announced strategic partnership with Nielsen to create an industry-first consumer segmentation tool for early 2020.
Additional talk highlights included:
● The Power and Potential of Psychedelics: Leading researchers and entrepreneurs provide insights into this uncharted industry
● Lessons from California: Building a Brand and an Industry: California-based cannabis leaders will share their insights and some lessons Canada can take away
● Trust after CannTrust: Rebuilding Confidence in the Industry: three presentations each touch on how brands can reframe the conversation to establish and maintain customer confidence
The Expo featured over 280 exhibitors and two full days of talks on the Fire & Flower Stage. Together, LCBC and Expo are Canada’s largest cannabis consumer and industry convention, with last year’s Vancouver event drawing in more than 18,000 visitors.
“We’re so excited to welcome CPG insights heavyweights like Nielsen, Ipsos, and EY Canada to elevate the cannabis conversation this year,” said Matei Olaru, CEO of Lift & Co. “Their presence signals an important shift for cannabis in year two, and will set the tone for a three-day event that will offer attendees the earliest view into cannabis in 2020. Lift & Co. has always strived to drive important topics forward at our events, and we’re looking forward to what is shaping up to be our most important Vancouver conference to date.”
Matei went on to discuss this year's event, the current data trends being addressed in the market and his expectations and forecasts for 2020.
