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 will be looking at a few private and public company announcements.
Body and Mind Inc. (CSE: BAMM) (OTCQB: BMMJ), a multi-state cannabis operator, and Her Highness, a growing cannabis brand designed to introduce and educate women around cannabis, announced today the launch of Her Highness in Nevada through their production licensing agreement.
Her Highness will launch Quarantine Queen, a 20-pack of indoor-grown pre-rolls and the brand's fan-favorites Giggle and High Priestess Vape Pens. Her Highness Lip-Logo canvas totes will be complimentary with purchases at select dispensaries.
Also launching in Nevada through the BaM partnership is Her Highness' Last Prisoner Project Pre-Roll collection: individual pre-roll and lighter sets that portray the moving stories of one of three women who were incarcerated due to non-violent cannabis offenses. Proceeds from the Last Prisoner Project Pre-roll collection support women with cannabis convictions who are working to be released from prison or re-entering after release.
"We're excited to partner with Her Highness as the Nevada cannabis market continues to see strong increases in year over year sales," stated Michael Mills, CEO of Body and Mind. "Our new production facility combined with our strong distribution platform offers a turn-key opportunity for Her Highness to grow their innovative brand in the expanding Nevada market."
Already retailing throughout California, Her Highness is a cannabis lifestyle brand built with a goal to capture the female cannabis market. With an elevated range of thoughtfully reimagined cannabis products for enjoyment and self-care, Her Highness satisfies every woman's cannabis curiosity and craving.
"We're thrilled to be launching with Body and Mind as our partner in Nevada. Known for dedication to quality and effective market penetration, they really understand our brand and passion for our mission," stated Allison Krongard, co-founder of Her Highness. "The level of commitment to detail and support we've seen already tells us we're on a path to success in this excting market."
Her Highness co-founders, Laura Eisman and Allison Krongard, set out to fill the gap in the market with a premium cannabis experience that was infused with a sense of play and delivered with style.
"The Body and Mind collaboration kicks off Her Highness' expansion beyond California into additional legal markets throughout the US and internationally," commented Laura Eisman, co-founder of Her Highness. "BaM was quick to recognize Her Highness' potential in the Nevada market, specifically in Las Vegas, a city sure to embrace the brand's bold and glamorous approach and undeniable appeal to women."
Through the partnership with BaM, Her Highness' line of cannabis products are now available at dispensaries throughout Nevada. https://bamcannabis.com/nevada/
Fire & Flower Holdings Corp. (TSX: FAF) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Fire & Flower Inc. announced that its stores will once again offer free best-in-class home delivery and curbside pick-up to safely and responsibly service its customers during the newly-mandated Toronto and Peel region lockdown in the Province of Ontario.
Beginning Monday, November 23, customers can easily order their cannabis products from Fire & Flower's Toronto locations using the e-commerce platform at www.fireandflower.com and choose between either free same-day delivery to their homes or to come to their nearest store for curbside service, ensuring the health and safety of Fire & Flower customers and team members.
On Friday, November 20, 2020, Attorney General Doug Downey approved an emergency order placing the Toronto and Peel regions under a new lockdown to combat COVID-19. On Sunday, November 22, 2020, Ontario Regulation 654/20 was made allowing cannabis retail stores located in the lockdown regions to operate through e-commerce, curbside pickup and home delivery services. Fire & Flower's Toronto locations are poised to continue operations through e-commerce and commence curbside and delivery services immediately.
"We applaud Attorney General Doug Downey for the practical solution of allowing provincially-licensed cannabis retailers the same e-commerce abilities of delivery and curbside pick-up that all other retailers have during this period of lockdown," said Trevor Fencott, Chief Executive Officer, Fire & Flower. "This act allows us to safely provide service to our customers and continue to combat the burgeoning illegal market during these challenging times."
"As the legal industry steps up for the second time and invests in safe delivery for our customers, we hope the Provincial government will recognize that the Ontario Cannabis Store's monopoly on delivery is an unnecessary burden on public health, taxpayers, customers and economic growth in the Province" continued Fencott. "Lockdowns will eventually end, but the road to economic recovery for private business will be difficult and the large illegal market will continue unchallenged unless the government makes these changes permanent. Our customers expect e-commerce and delivery options from every other kind of retailer in the Province, and deserve to receive equitable treatment for licensed cannabis retailers."
Fire & Flower and Hifyre™ digital teams are re-establishing the operating procedures and technology that served safely customers through online payment, curbside pickup and home delivery services earlier this year when the province was initially combatting the pandemic.
Fire & Flower has a distinct competitive advantage as online ordering, curbside pickup and delivery become available through its ability to communicate with almost 178,000 members in the Spark Perks program on the Hifyre™ digital platform. The Spark Perks program provides a robust channel to communicate with consumers, understand their needs and preferences and drive consumer traffic digitally.
The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. (TSX: TGOD) (OTC: TGODF), a leading producer of premium certified organically grown cannabis, announced that it has received an Export Certificate from Health Canada. This certificate enables TGOD to complete its first shipment of medical cannabis to Germany where it will undergo stability testing, the last step before the Company can commence commercialization in 2021.
"This is an important milestone as we get ready to begin the international shipping of our certified organically grown medical cannabis products. Germany is the first of several markets that we are planning to supply. Other countries that we anticipate shipping to in the future are Australia and Mexico," commented Sean Bovingdon, Interim CEO of TGOD. "We chose to obtain our EU-GMP certification from Germany because of its high standards and its progressive medical cannabis framework," added Bovingdon.
Lastly we look at comments from the www.WallStreetReporter.com from both Aurora Cannabis (NYSE: ACB) (TSX: ACB) CEO, Miguel Martin, who said Aurora is now “Focused on Delivering ‘Quality Revenue’ through Premium Brands” and Canopy Growth Corporation (NASDAQ: CGC) (TSX: WEED), CEO David Klein who discussed how “Momentum is Building - On Path to Profitability”
CEO, Miguel Martin commented, “...the consumer has demonstrated very dynamic tendencies with market share moving very quickly between brands, unlike in more stable CPG categories. This provides us with a great opening for our pivot to premium brands….Data from Canada and other mature markets indicate that premium and super premium brands have been and will continue to be successful in all formats. Therefore, Aurora has a real opportunity for a more articulated and balanced portfolio offering with a greater focus on higher margin and sustainable premium assets, such as vapes, pre-rolls and premium flower offerings across multiple price tiers....
We are also working to expand our leading concentrates and to refocus our dried flower business toward higher gross profit dollar pools...The key of course, is to ensure that in doing so we are delivering more dollars to the gross profit line versus simply just delivering low margin revenue. We are therefore much more interested in our market share within premium and super premium categories, along with our market share of categories, such as vapor, pre-rolls and concentrates that are margin accretive compared to our market share in the deep discount flower business...our intention is to generate not just revenue but quality revenue, that will deliver a healthy gross profit dollar as opposed to essentially just a gross margin percentage.”
CEO David Klein commented, “...Momentum is building across our key businesses as our new strategy is coming to fruition. We achieved record quarterly revenue in Q2 led by our Canadian recreational business and strength across our strategic businesses, including Storz & Bickel, This Works in BioSteel...We’re continuing to improve execution and agility. Our fill rates are now consistently exceeding 90%, our flower quality improvement program is generating positive results, and we’ve improved our new product development process to allow us to bring better products to market faster...We’re accelerating our path to profitability, notably in our largest market, Canada...I’m confident that we’re now firmly on a path to achieve positive adjusted EBITDA at some point next fiscal year.”
“We’re building a portfolio of scalable brands across cannabis and CPG. Our goal is to become a cannabis-focused CPG company. We’re bringing our THC brands such as Tweed and Houseplant into the U.S. market through multi-state operator relationships or CBD line extensions. We’re growing new-to-world CBD brands, such as Martha Stewart, to meet consumer needs. We’re establishing routes to market with our CPG brands such as BioSteel, This Works, and Storz & Bickel. These are strong brands in their own right with distinct value propositions. Building these brands today allows us to generate revenues without the headwinds of regulatory challenges. And then, we plan to line extend these brands into CBD or even THC as regulations evolve.We will layer in additional brands over time, which will create further scale with our existing distribution networks and further build our relationships with retailers...”
