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 public company announcements.

 

Canopy Growth Corporation (TSX: WEED) (NYSE: CGC), a world-leading diversified cannabis, hemp, and cannabis device company, announced the launch of its new U.S. e-commerce website: ShopCanopy.com.

The site will continue to feature new brands from Canopy Growth, including the highly anticipated launch of Martha Stewart CBD.

 

"We're pleased to offer our customers a convenient, one-stop destination for exploring and purchasing Canopy Growth's products in the U.S.," said Sol Clahane, Vice President and General Manager – US Region, Canopy Growth. "As our exciting portfolio of hemp-based CBD products continues to grow and diversify, it's our ambition to offer competitively-priced, high quality products for each consumer need state and price point."

The intuitive, easy-to-navigate site allows consumers to search by brand or product category, such as softgels, oils, topicals or sport. ShopCanopy also features a robust educational component with more than 75 FAQs, blog posts and informative CBD educational material. The content provides consumers with an accessible, transparent, and trustworthy resource for science-backed information on CBD safety, dosing, benefits, product quality and more.

Greenlane Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: GNLN), one of the largest global sellers of premium cannabis accessories, child-resistant packaging, and specialty vaporization products, today announced the launch of VIBES™ Cubano Cones and a new VIBES apparel collection featuring six unique designs across 25 items. VIBES Fine Rolling Papers is a joint venture between Greenlane and Berner the extremely influential rapper, serial entrepreneur, and founder of Cookies. Cultivated and crafted in France, and then cut and kitted in the Dominican Republic, VIBES offers a curated assortment of premium cones, rolling paper and branded accessories with a mission to create the ultimate smoking experience for connoisseurs.

 

“We created and curated VIBES papers for the connoisseur with the goal of bringing true innovation to the industry. With the introduction of The Cubano, we have innovated upon the standard width and size of a traditional cone. We believe The Cubano uniquely compliments our generation, culture, and my cannabis brand: Cookies. I couldn’t be more excited to roll out The Cubano globally,” said Berner, CEO and Co-Founder of VIBES Rolling Papers.

 

The Cubano Cone is longer than a king size paper and significantly wider in diameter. Each cone is meticulously hand rolled with a structure capable of maintaining its shape when packed while the draft angle ensures it burns consistently all the way through. The Cubano is available in all three VIBES paper blends, Ultra Thin, Hemp, and Rice, and can hold up to 8 grams of dry material. As with all VIBES paper products, The Cubano uses all-natural acacia tree gum for a perfect seal. They are currently available in limited quantities through select authorized retailers, and vibespapers.com.

 

VIBES launched in 2019 and has gained a strong reputation for producing superior quality papers and connecting with consumers in an authentic way. VIBES apparel and accessories have allowed the company to make the jump from rolling papers to establishing itself as a genuine lifestyle brand.

 

In addition to its new Cubano Cones, VIBES will drop a new apparel collection on its website VibesPapers.com on Friday, July 31st.The collection consists of six new designs: GOAT, Cheetah, 3D, Joint Cloud, Queen, and Block spread across 25 items including shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, fleece pants, and more. The featured graphics were crowd sourced through VIBES’ Instagram art contest held earlier this year in March. This new apparel collection expands on VIBES’ line of premium branded accessories. Visit VibesPapers.com after Friday, July 31st, to shop these products and more.

 

BC Craft Supply Co. Ltd. (CSE: CRFT) announced its first purchase of premium artisanal organic cannabis.  BC Craft has purchased 29kg of BC Original Glue, which is pure organic, hand-trimmed, dried flower produced by Coast Mountain Cannabis. The flower will be packaged in beautiful 3.5 gram jars and in premium pre-rolls.  BC Craft partnered with Indiva Limited under a master processing agreement (“MPA”) that was announced on May 13, 2020, to facilitate the processing and sales of premium cannabis procured through BC Craft’s vast network of artisanal craft cultivators. Under the MPA, Indiva brings state of the art processing, sales, and national distribution, which will allow micro and small scale cultivators access to the national recreational market and greater visibility for their brand and quality craft product.

 

BC Craft offers preferential payment terms for flower, with a 50% deposit and 50% payment within 30 days, thus allowing the Company to partner with premium small scale craft cultivators nationwide. BC Craft’s CEO, Matthew Watters stated, “Many of our suppliers have faced significant challenges when entering the regulated market. We chose these terms because while it is reasonable and advantageous for the Company, it also helps the cultivator.  Most small batch cultivators are family run businesses and at BC Craft we believe that they deserve to be paid on time and at a fair price.”

 

CMC is a licensed boutique indoor cultivation facility located in Pemberton, B.C. nestled in the heart of the British Columbia’s Coast Mountain range. CMC’s team takes great pride in producing high quality organic cannabis which is reflected in their latest test results.  CMC’s founders have deep roots in the Sea-to-Sky corridor; they came together with a shared vision and mission to build a leading edge facility, which respects the traditions of the industry and grows the best organic cannabis.  At CMC, innovation and sustainability are at the heart of what they do.  As champions of their community and the surrounding environment, they pride themselves on being a craft, ultra-premium producer, employing the best talent in the industry, and delivering a superior product and experience to their customers.

 

Matthew Watters, CEO further stated, “This is a pivotal moment in BC Craft’s vision and mandate to bring the highest quality artisanal cannabis into the legal market and serves to validate the Company's long term business model.”

 

Zylö Therapeutics Inc., developer of the transformational Z-pod topical delivery platform, announced that it has entered into an exclusive agreement with Grapefruit USA, Inc. (OTCQB:GPFT) to supply its Z-pod system as the technological underpinning of Grapefruit’s Hourglass time-release cannabinoid topical cream.

 

Zylö’s patented Z-pod system is formulated such that it enables a Patchless Patch product concept, whereby a topically applied cream provides ‘patch-like’ sustained release of a payload—such as cannabinoids or lidocaine—but without the hassles, inconvenience, and disposal issues of a patch. With certain payloads, the Z-pod delivery system also increases dermal penetration, improves stability, and/or enhances overall bioavailability.

 

Grapefruit, which holds licenses in California and Illinois to manufacture and distribute cannabis products (see www.grapefruitblvd.com), has exclusivity initially in these two states and has certain rights to expand the territory of exclusivity to other states and to Canada and Mexico. Canada has a well-established legalized cannabis marketplace, and it is anticipated that Mexico will legalize cannabis in the near future.

 

Grapefruit plans to introduce Hourglass on a limited basis to the California retail market by the end of the third quarter and to ramp up production and delivery of the product shortly thereafter. The architecture of the Hourglass delivery cream provides Grapefruit with the ability to formulate variations of its Hourglass product concept by loading the cream with unique blends of cannabinoids that its customers deem to be efficacious for a given application or desired result.

 

Scott Pancoast, Zylö’s CEO and founder, stated “We are enthusiastic about this partnership with Grapefruit and believe their Hourglass Topical Delivery Cream will be a game-changer in the recreational/medicinal full-spectrum cannabis market given the extraordinary advantages over traditional methods of consuming cannabis. We look forward to a long and expanding relationship with the Grapefruit team.”

 

Added Bradley J. Yourist, Grapefruit’s CEO, “We are excited and proud to have completed the developmental phase of Hourglass, our breakthrough full-spectrum cannabinoid time-release topical delivery cream based on Zylö’s patented xerogel silica delivery system. We have developed an incredible collaborative working relationship with the Zylö team of scientists, which is evidenced by the scope of our agreement. We believe that Grapefruit’s Hourglass topical delivery cream is a truly disruptive, breakthrough technology, one that fundamentally changes the way individuals will use cannabinoids to obtain their unique benefits. Destructive and socially distasteful smoking of cannabis flowers and consumption of edibles that are metabolized unevenly are simply no longer necessary to enjoy both the medicinal and recreational benefits of cannabinoids. Furthermore, Grapefruit’s Hourglass Topical Delivery Cream offers cannabis users a heretofore unattainable level of discretion and anonymity. For example, fellow airline, train or ship passengers, concert goers, and movie or theatre attendees will not be able to detect any telltale odors normally associated with cannabis use.”

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 public company announcements.

Avicanna Inc. (TSX: AVCN) (OTCQX: AVCNF), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development, manufacturing and commercialization of plant-derived cannabinoid-based products, announced that the Company's research collaborators have received two independent peer-reviewed grants from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada. The NSERC Alliance grants will be used to expand the investigators' collaborative research with Avicanna.

For the past three years, Dr. Christine Allen's research group (CARG) in the Leslie Dan Faculty of Pharmacy at the University of Toronto has supported the development and optimization of Avicanna's cannabinoid-based products including commercial cosmetics (Pura H&W) and medical cannabis (Rho Phyto) product lines and the pharmaceutical pipeline that is currently under clinical investigation.  Dr. Allen will now leverage a recent MITACS award in addition to this NSERC Alliance grant in collaboration with Avicanna to develop a cannabinoid-based formulation for treatment of COVID-19 related lung inflammation.

A second NSERC Alliance grant was awarded to Dr. Jibran Khokhar, Assistant Professor at the University of Guelph, who has an extensive track-record in behavioural pharmacology and neuroscience. Avicanna's research program with Dr. Khokhar focuses on evaluating a variety of cannabinoids in several preclinical models of human psychiatric conditions including mental health disorders such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The NSERC grant was awarded to evaluate the neurobiological underpinnings of cannabis toxicosis in a preclinical model, and test the potential efficacy of Avicanna's naturally-derived cannabinoids and formulations in the treatment of cannabis-induced toxicosis. With the recent changes in the Canadian regulations for Cannabis 2.0 allowing for cannabinoid edibles and vapes, there is concern around an increased risk for adverse events arising from accidental high-dose cannabis ingestion. Thus, this two-year project will determine the behavioural and neural correlations of cannabis-induced toxicosis and the effects of cannabinoids for counteracting cannabis-induced toxicosis.

Dr Jibran Khokhar, commented, "This research is extremely timely with the new Cannabis 2.0 regulations and the increased risk for cannabis-induced toxicosis. I am thankful to NSERC and Avicanna for support of this important research that will have an impact in our understanding of the neurobiological underpinnings of, and provide novel treatment avenues to treat, adverse events related to high-dose cannabis exposures."

HEXO Corp (TSX: HEXO) (NYSE: HEXO) announced the launch of its line of vape products to both adult-use and medical consumers, across Canada.

“At HEXO, we pride ourselves in ensuring our consumers have access to high-quality, reliable and consistent cannabis products,” said Sebastien St. Louis, CEO and co-founder of HEXO Corp. “We are thrilled to launch our vape products across Canada as we continue to focus on innovation and launching additional 2.0 products across all of our brands.”

Prior to releasing its line of vapes, the Company conducted testing to evaluate the taste, tolerability of effects and short-term undesired effects of its proprietary terpene blends.

HEXO’s vape products currently include three ready-to-use vape pens and four 510-thread cartridges, in popular strain-inspired terpene blends. HEXO vapes are available across Canada to both adult-use and medical consumers.

Zenabis Global Inc. (TSX: ZENA) today announced initial shipments of its Re-Up 510-Threaded Vaporizer line.

This week, Zenabis completed first shipments of this new product line, which is produced at Zenabis Atholville using product cultivated and extracted by Zenabis, with no requirement for third-party processing. Currently, the product offering includes two high THC products and one CBD product. Zenabis currently has listings of this product in five provinces and anticipates listings in an additional three provinces by the end of August.

Zenabis anticipates that its 510-Threaded Vaporizer line will contribute meaningfully to net revenue from August 2020 onward given consumer preference for the Re-Up 510-Threaded Vaporizer line of products. Thus far, all offers made under the Re-Up 510 Threaded Vaporizer line have been accepted by provincial counterparties.  Zenabis has focused on achieving differentiation in this product line through:
       A focus on competitive, best-in-class pricing (targeting lowest retail pricing versus competitors in all available provincial markets); and
       Products based on terpene flavour profile, as opposed to cultivar.

Zenabis created this product line with a focus on consumer education and experience. The Re-Up 510-Threaded Vaporizer line of products was developed by our product development team to assist consumers in better understanding the botanical nature of terpenes. Each vaporizer cartridge type was developed with a purposefully curated selection of terpenes with complementary flavour profiles and similar characteristics. The initial launch of the
Re-Up 510-Threaded Vaporizer product line will include two high THC vaporizer cartridges: (i) Lemon and Lavender; and (ii) Hops and Spice, as well as one high CBD vaporizer cartridge, Pine and Berry. The Re-Up 510-Threaded Vaporizers product line will be available in two formats, 0.5g and 1.0g, and fit all standard 510 thread vaporizer pens.

Kevin Coft, Chief Executive Officer of Zenabis, stated, "We are very excited to have completed initial shipments under this product line, especially given that this was achieved through full, internalized production of these products at Zenabis Atholville utilizing in-house extraction and filling. We believe that the Re-Up 510-Threaded Vaporizer line is a strong complement to our existing, premium Pax Era line of vaporizer cartridges." Olen Vanderleeden, Senior Vice President of Zenabis added, "Based on indications from provincial counterparties and considering our competitive pricing, Zenabis anticipates incremental monthly revenue in excess of one million dollars per month once production at Zenabis Atholville rises to a level to meet consumer demand."

Ehave, Inc. (OTC : EHVVF) and its subsidiary PsyTech announced today an upcoming Psychedelic Industry webinar for investors and interested individuals. PsyTech was incubated by iCAN (Israel-cannabis) and developed by the team behind CannaTech, the premier international cannabis summit. Leveraging the highly relevant experience of iCAN, PsyTech is positioned to lead the global psychedelic conversation forward.

Ehave CEO Ben Kaplan said, "Our PsyTech Conferences have been very popular with investors, as a result of their insight on the industry. Psychedelic medicine has garnered a tremendous amount of attentions since The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) authorized Breakthrough Therapy Designation to both Compass Pathways' and Usona Institute's psilocybin therapy for depression in 2018." Mr. Kaplan continued, "The mainstream media started talking about it late last year after a group of private donors donated $17 million to start the Center for Psychedelic and Consciousness Research at Johns Hopkins Medicine. We expect our complimentary webinar on July 29 will continue our trend of providing important information on psychedelic medicine to investors.''

The virtual investor webinar titled Mystical Experience, Religion, and Psychedelics is open to individual investors, institutional investors, advisors, analysts and the Psychedelic Community. The program opens at 12:00 PM ET on Wednesday, July 29th.

Speakers for the PsyTech Virtual Investor Conference include:
Irie Selkirk - Moderator
Director of Rise Wellness Retreat and Co-Founder of Sansero Life Sciences
Pastor James Lindberg
An Ordained Clergy Person at The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America
Rabbi Zac Kamenetz
Founder and CEO of Shefa: Psychedelic Therapy Grounded in Jewish Spirituality
William A. Richards
Psychologist - The Center for Psychedelic And Consciousness Research At The Johns Hopkins University School Of Medicine

There are no fees to log-in, or attend the live presentations.
