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

Sundial's
high-quality products will be available in all four P.E.I. Cannabis locations,
as well as on its e-commerce platform. Sundial's entrance into the P.E.I.
market will begin with its Sundial brand which will offer five product lines:

batches and nurtured by master growers to cultivate consistent high-quality

Geyser Brands Inc.
(formerly Kanzen Capital Corp.) (TSX-V: GYSR) announced 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

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.
Geyser
Brands CEO, Andreas Thatcher commented, "Geyser Brands continues to build
and lead the way in establishing its position as a health and wellness CPG
company that gives lift to products with the addition of cannabis. Partnering
with Craft Collective and jointly leveraging our unique areas of expertise will
allow both parties to enter this emerging market and develop high-quality non cannabis
and cannabis-infused beverages for the consumable cannabis market."
Craft
Collective CEO, Andrew Harris stated, "This joint venture between Craft
Collective and Geyser Brands marks an exciting milestone for our company as we
continue to release innovative beverage brands to market. We look forward to
launching impactful products through this combination of our expertise."
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.
