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 private and public company announcements.
Shoppers Drug Mart Inc. announced the opening
of its first managed medical clinic in Toronto.
Owned and operated by Shoppers Drug Mart, the Health Clinic by Shoppers™ is a primary-care and family practice
clinic, providing patients with convenient, one-stop access to medical services
and trusted advice.
Located
at Lawrence Ave. and Dufferin St., this new clinic is the first of three
expected to open over the next year in the Greater Toronto Area. Hosting a suite of family medicine services,
the clinic aims to make healthcare more accessible for patients with extended
operating hours and increased technology, such as online appointment booking
and virtual care options through Medeo® solutions and electronic health records
via the AccuroEMR® platform.
"We
know Canadians want and need more from their primary care. The world changed quickly and dramatically
this year, highlighting the need for more accessible healthcare options for
patients – whether that means extended hours and more convenient locations for
in-person services, or virtual care services for all patients including those
who don't currently have access to a family physician," says Jeff Leger,
President, Shoppers Drug Mart. "The
Health Clinic by Shoppers combines convenience and technology in a way that is
increasingly relevant to Canadians looking for health and wellness
support."
As
Shoppers Drug Mart expands its range of healthcare services, the company
assembled a team of individuals with extensive experience in health clinic
operations and management, and established a Physician Advisory Board to
support the design and implementation of the new health clinic model.
"The
COVID 19 pandemic has had a substantial impact on both the way Canadians access
health care and on how physicians deliver primary care to their patients,"
says Dr. Barry McLellan of the Health Clinic by Shoppers Physician Advisory
Board. "Through an enhanced experience of consistent quality of care,
convenient hours, technology-enabled and virtual care services all delivered in
a modern clinic space, the Health Clinic by Shoppers is uniquely positioned to
provide high-quality, patient-centered healthcare to Canadians."
Avicanna Inc. (TSX:
AVCN) (OTCQX:
AVCNF) announced that
its advanced RHO Phyto™ Micro Drop oils are now officially available nationwide
in Canada on the Medical Cannabis by Shoppers™ platform as well as through the
Medical Cannabis Real-World Evidence study at the University Health Network as
announced by the Company on July 15, 2020.
Following
years of research and development in collaboration with world class academic
and clinical organizations, Avicanna is proud to be launching RHO Phyto, a full
formulary of advanced medical cannabis products, for patients and the medical
community in Canada. Following the Micro
Drop oils, Avicanna expects to launch two advanced sublingual spray
formulations in the upcoming weeks. The RHO Phyto product line includes oil drops,
sublingual sprays, capsules and topicals with varying ratios of CBD and THC.
The RHO Phyto products are designed to address a range of medical conditions
that may require various rates of relief. For example, the "Rapid
Act" sublingual sprays provide a faster onset of effects than the
"Simple Dose" capsules and "Micro Drop" oils. To ensure
batch-to-batch consistency and high-quality products, these formulations are
manufactured under Good Manufacturing Practices in partnership with MediPharm
Labs Inc. and GMP-level analytical testing is performed by Sigma Analytical
Services Inc. All RHO Phyto products will be tracked using blockchain
technology developed by TruTrace Technologies Inc. to manage, track and trace
each step of the supply chain.
Aras
Azadian, CEO of Avicanna commented, "We believe that our RHO Phyto
formulary is designed to address numerous gaps in the current medical cannabis
framework with respect to patient needs and provide an opportunity to attract
new prescribers and patients to medical cannabis solutions. The introduction of
a strictly medical line of products, backed by extensive research, pre-clinical
data, GMP manufacturing and offered by Shoppers, has the opportunity to set a
new standard of care and establish RHO Phyto as the leading medical product
line in the medical cannabis market."
With the
patient in mind, RHO Phyto Micro Drop oils are formulated with enhanced
absorption, prolonged stability, and consistency. The blood orange flavoured
Micro Drop oil 1.6 CBD - 0.06 THC and Micro Drop oil 0.6 CBD – 0.16 THC are available
in a 25:1 and 4:1 CBD to THC ratio, respectively. The product name includes the
amount in milligrams (mg) of CBD and THC that is delivered per dose. Detailed
guidelines about dosing and titration for Health Care Practitioners and
patients is available on the RHO Phyto website at www.rhophyto.com, as well as on the
Avicanna Academy website at https://www.avicanna.com/the-avicanna-academy/, along
with additional product information, product guidelines for patients, and
frequently asked questions.
As a
part of Avicanna's commercialization strategy, the Company will be providing
education and training for HCPs, patients, and medical institutions about
medical cannabis and the RHO Phyto product line. Educational materials can be
found on the Avicanna Academy website at https://www.avicanna.com/the-avicanna-academy/,
including a recording of Avicanna's 3rd annual symposium that was hosted
virtually in partnership with Shoppers on July 21st and was live-streamed by
over 1,000 participants.
1933
Industries Inc. (CSE:
TGIF) (OTCQX:
TGIFF), announced the
introduction of a new line of extra strength products to its extensive wellness
portfolio. The Canna Hemp™ Plus line was developed for consumers who want to
experience the added benefits of increased CBD at competitive prices from a
reliable and trusted brand.
As the health and wellness market
continues to research the power of the cannabis plant, the Company's Canna
Hemp™ brand is applying its expertise in utilizing cannabidiol (CBD) in a
variety of formulas in order to meet the lifestyles and needs of a growing
consumer base. With double the amount of CBD, the PLUS line was designed to
offer competitively-priced products with some of the highest amounts of CBD
found today in the marketplace.
"Our exciting suite of wellness
products continues to grow in a number of segments and price points. Over the
last three years, we have earned the trust of our consumers by offering
products that are effective, reliable and contain the highest quality CBD sourced
in the USA", stated Mr. Eugene Ruiz, President of 1933 Industries. 'Our
best-selling topical Relief Cream and all Elixirs will launch the PLUS line
today, with more products to follow over the coming months."
"We are also pleased to
announce that we have re-priced all of our regular Canna Hemp™ products and we
will be increasing the amount of CBD in the Canna Hemp™ Vape Pens, Lotions and
Lip balms. As the price of CBD has come down, we are passing these savings
along to our consumers", added Mr. Ruiz. "Our leading Canna Hemp ™
line will not only boast the best ingredients and most effective formulations,
but also a highly competitive pricing structure for premium products. There's
never been a better time to discover the many uses and benefits of hemp and CBD
for both the body and mind."
All Canna Hemp™ products are
specifically formulated with the Company's proprietary TerpFX™ blend of real
cannabis-derived terpenes and organic, botanical oils. Terpenes mimic the
profiles of cannabis strains without any THC. In addition to the PLUS line, the
Company recently launched a line of products made with organic hemp seed oil
available via online marketplaces such as Amazon.com and Walmart.com and via
its direct to consumer e-commerce website cannahemp.com.
The
Board of Directors of Province Brands of
Canada, the beverage technology company that has developed a
first-of-its-kind patent-pending process expected to reduce environmental
impact and create beverages and other ancillary products that are less harmful
for human health, announced that
Jennifer Dianne Thomas, Esq. has been appointed
the company's new Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately.
Previously, Ms. Thomas was the Province Brands' Chief Legal Officer. She is
Co-Founder of Province Brands and will remain a member of its Board of
Directors.
Ms.
Thomas replaces Dooma Wendschuh, Co-Founder and CEO since the company was
formed in 2016. Mr. Wendschuh informed the Board in December, 2019, of his
intent to transition from executive leadership, and planning has been underway
since. Mr. Wendschuh remains a full-time employee of Province Brands dedicated
to the company's success as a co-founder.
"Dooma
has taken Province Brands from an idea that met with widespread early
resistance to the verge of market-ready launch with facilities under
construction, valuable IP, a broad vision, emerging product offerings, and he
will remain an important part of Province Brands' future," said Ms.
Thomas. "I'm excited about the road ahead and thank Dooma and the Board
for its confidence and full support."
Ms.
Thomas added: "I'm excited to take over as CEO of Province Brands to
create and deliver new solutions and revenue streams that allow the business to
grow in these challenging times. In addition to innovative thinking, the
current environment in the industry and world at large presents a confluence of
constrains that require risk mitigation and sound legal, financial and
compliance experience that I have accumulated over my 12 years of practicing at
Schulte Roth & Zabel LLP, Jones Day, and with other cannabis companies.
These experiences have prepared me to lead Province Brands' to a bright future.
Since
co-founding Province Brands four years ago, Ms. Thomas has spearheaded multiple
vital strategic initiatives and partnerships, played a major role in managing
the business, overseen all aspects of the company's legal and licensure
strategies, and managed the company's legal and finance department.
"Under
Jennifer's leadership, Province Brands is poised to transform the brewing
industry," said Mr. Wendschuh. "There is no one better suited for the
job, more highly regarded by the team, or more capable to lead this company.
I've been honored to have Jennifer as a partner for the past four years and
I've been thrilled to watch her succeed at every task she's undertaken. Her
bold vision for the company is exciting and I'm thrilled to help her
succeed."
Ms.
Thomas for two years has represented Province Brands on the board of the
Cannabis Beverage Producers Alliance. She founded the State Bar of Georgia's
Cannabis and Hemp Bar Section. Prior to Co-Founding Province Brands, Ms. Thomas
held roles including Corporate Associate at Schulte Roth & Zabel LLP, and
Corporate Associate at Jones Day. She earned her Juris Doctor degree from
Howard University School of Law and holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from
Southern Methodist University.

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.
Canopy
Growth Corporation (TSX: WEED) (NYSE: CGC) today announced its financial results for the
first quarter fiscal 2021 ended June 30, 2020.
The stock also rose by nearly $2 at the start of the day upon the
release of the financial results.
"We're proud of our strong
first-quarter performance, despite unprecedented volatility and uncertainty in
the market and across the globe," said David Klein, CEO. "We grew our
revenue year-over-year and are seeing market share improvement, notably
achieving number one market share in cannabis-infused beverages in the Canadian
market. We are implementing a renewed
corporate strategy with the appointment of a new leadership team which will
focus on delivering quality products to our consumers, positioning our business
for continued growth. The proposed retooled Acreage announcement refocuses our
entry for the evolving U.S. market, where we are seeing increased
momentum."
"Following our previously
announced restructuring actions, we have substantially reduced our expense and
cash burn in this quarter in addition to reducing headcount by over 18% since
beginning of this calendar year. Our
marketing and R&D investments are being re-allocated to programs with
high-return potential in order to drive sales," added Mike Lee, CFO. "Our
gross margins in the quarter came in below our expectations due to
under-utilization of our large-scale infrastructure. We've already proven we
can deliver 40%-plus gross margin and are confident that we can return to that
level as we work toward higher capacity utilization across our facilities as demand
for our cannabis products continue to grow. In the meantime, we are focused on
further optimizing our operating footprint through a full end-to-end strategy
that looks at people, process, technology, and infrastructure that we believe
will lead to best in class margins over time."
Khiron
Life Sciences Corp. (TSXV: KHRN) (OTCQX: KHRNF) announced that it has signed a distribution
deal for its KuidaTM CBD cosmeceutical brand with DNO Group, a leading
distributor for the Asia Pacific market. Kuida skin and body care products will
be distributed by DNO Group through their network of retail and online channels
in Hong Kong, with first orders anticipated in Q4 2020. Distribution is
conditional on TSXV approval.
"With this distribution deal we
establish a significant footprint in Hong Kong for our Kuida brand and gain
access to the Asian Pacific beauty and skincare market, the world's largest
region for skincare products. DNO Group have a large distribution network of
over 50,000 points of sales in the region, including prominent pharmacy, beauty
retail and online channels that we know from experience in other jurisdictions
are where our customers are choosing to purchase Kuida products. Importantly,
DNO Group brings valuable insight into the Asian consumer profile, further
supporting the impact of the brand roll-out in Hong Kong," comments Alvaro
Torres, Khiron CEO and Director.
Hong Kong is a market that serves
both the local population of 7.2 million and serves as an import hub for
mainland China. The Hong Kong personal care and cosmetics market is
experiencing robust growth with estimated revenue of US$2.7 billion achieved in
2018 and continues to expand with many beauty and personal care items
considered daily necessities, as rising health awareness and
image-consciousness drives demand.
Seven Kuida SKU's will be
distributed into the Hong Kong market, with first orders anticipated in Q4
2020. This continues the Khiron strategy to target specific, high-value global
CBD skincare market opportunities. Kuida is now available at over 350 points of
sale in Colombia, as well as the UK and recently announced entry to Spain.
Khiron was recently recognized by Technavio Research as one of the top global
players in the CBD cosmetics market, alongside L'Oreal SA and The Estée Lauder
Companies. Technavio is a leading global technology research and advisory
company focused on emerging market trends.
"Kuida CBD based skincare
products are well suited for consumers in Hong Kong, as well as for our
portfolio and distribution capabilities. Furthermore, the efficacy of the
products themselves is impressive. We expect a highly positive sales
development for Kuida in Hong Kong going forward," said DNO Group's
Managing Director, Ofri Shaysh.
The
Supreme Cannabis Company, Inc. (TSX: FIRE) (OTCQX: SPRWF) today announced the launch of Hiway, a new
brand dedicated to providing frequent cannabis consumers with affordable
products that do not compromise on quality.
"While we continue to see a
strong market for our premium 7ACRES products, we are also seeing a tremendous
consumer response to more affordable cannabis offerings; in July, dried flower
products priced under $6 per gram accounted for approximately 40% of flower
sales in Ontario," said Beena Goldenberg, President and CEO of Supreme
Cannabis. "With Hiway, we aim to exceed consumer expectations for value
products by delivering a quality product at an affordable price. Hiway benefits
from our strong reputation and leading practices for growing and processing
high-quality cannabis products. With the launch of this value-oriented brand,
we are leveraging our competencies, capacity and efficiencies to build market
share and create an exceptional experience for more cannabis consumers."
Hiway enters the Canadian cannabis
market with Hiway Hash, a 2g solventless concentrate made by compressing dry
sift kief from trichome dense, whole plant hang dried cannabis. The result is a
picturesque brick of blonde hash that is divided into 2g pieces and packaged
with care. This high-value hash boasts aromatic notes of sour citrus, diesel
and spice as well as robust lemon and pepper flavours. Hiway Hash will
initially launch in Alberta, British Columbia and Ontario and will quickly be
available in more provinces.
Supreme Cannabis expects to expand
Hiway's product portfolio to include large format flower, additional
concentrate products, extracts and vapes. Supreme Cannabis will be promoting
Hiway and its new offerings across Canada through its innovative sales
partnership with Humble & Fume Inc., one of the industries premiere sales
agencies.
