Selected Financial Information
All amounts expressed are in Canadian dollars.

44% Year over Year Revenue Growth Without New Facility

The Company’s $5.5 million growth in revenues over the prior year is attributed to the steady increase in AMA’s number of cannabis plants and total annual plant yield as well as to Infused’s significant product distribution expansion in the United States . Infused’s Canna Hemp™ brand of CBD health and wellness products are sold in over 800 retail outlets across 46 states, and via the Company’s E-Commerce site.

16% Gross Margin Decrease Until New Facility Ramps up Cultivation

The Company saw a decrease in gross margin from $6.4 million to $5.3 million primarily due to increased purchases by AMA of third-party biomass to produce concentrates and final products. The Company anticipates producing sufficient amounts of biomass from its new facility thereby reducing third party purchases, which is expected to significantly improve the realized gross margins. Partially offsetting the increased costs of AMA, Infused has significantly increased its customer base, which has resulted in improved economies of scale in the production of CBD-based products, positively impacting overall gross margin.

$37.7 Million Cash Injection by Financing Activities and Strong Cash Position

• The sale of property and equipment increased cash by $13 million
• The issuance of convertible debenture units increased cash by $15.5 million
• Common shares issued pursuant to a private placement increased cash by $4.5 million
• Common shares issued pursuant to exercises of stock options increased cash by $0.7 million
• Common shares issued pursuant to exercises of warrants and agent options increased cash by $3.9 million
• Cash on hand at Year End is $17.6 million

Cost-Cutting Measures in Place to Mitigate Loss

The Company’s net loss for the year is $19.1 million , attributed to a one-time non-cash impairment loss of Spire Global Strategy and one-time non-cash loss on disposal of property and equipment as well as increases in general and administrative costs as the Company continued to scale up its operations and added staffing and resources to support the Company’s growth initiatives. The Company continues to incur costs to support its growing infrastructure requirements.

Significant expenditures during the period include property and equipment expenses related to AMA’s 67,750 square foot cultivation facility and 12,160 square foot production facility in Nevada and the purchase of the remaining 9% of Infused for $5.4 million , of which $1.2 million was cash via a promissory note paid during Q4.

The Company saw an overall increase in expenses as it continues to grow in size and scale.  The realignment of core business units such as cultivation, extraction and manufacturing assets and cost-cutting measures in place along all divisions have been a focus in order to lower expenses.

Commentary by Mr. Chris Rebentisch , Chief Executive Officer

“Our second year of operations was met by a surge in market volatility, challenging capital markets and a changing regulatory environment. Although not immune to sector-wide stock pressures and volatility, the Company remains positioned with growth and profitability in mind and we continue on target on this path. We are razor-focused on continuing to ensure the long-term viability of the Company. We have implemented cost cutting measures aimed at reducing our current operating expenses, improving efficiencies and strengthening our product offerings while building a sustainable foundation.

Exceeding expectations, we increased revenues by 44% from our previous year while awaiting our new cultivation facility to become operational. We oversaw a 130% growth in revenues for our CBD brand portfolio, as well as a 245% increase of cash to execute on our growth plan. By the end of this fiscal year, we had completed the construction of one of Nevada’s largest indoor cultivation facilities for premium craft cannabis and had begun to transfer our cannabis plants to the new facility.

Subsequent to the Year End, we entered the California market with a management agreement for cultivation and manufacturing in the state and continue to make progress on our infrastructure projects in Nevada , while targeting promising markets in Arizona and Colorado . Our proprietary Canna Hemp™ brands are emerging as significant players in the industry and continue to grow across the nation. We have also attracted some of the best brands in the industry as licensing partners as we continue to increase market share in Nevada as one of the largest wholesalers of cannabis products to legal dispensaries.

We forecast strong revenue growth in 2020 as we expand our proprietary portfolio of AMA branded THC flower and concentrates, continue innovating our unique, differentiated, quality-based CBD Canna Hemp™ portfolio and as our recently added licensing partnerships bear fruit. We anticipate significant margin improvements as we complete the build-out of new cultivation and production facilities in Nevada and become less reliant on wholesale biomass suppliers. With our focused vision on delivering the highest quality consumer branded goods, we have a disciplined growth path to scale up operations in 2020 and beyond.”
