$AMMJ Announces Hiring Of Terry Buffalo As New Chief Operating Officer

Terry Buffalo is a seasoned executive in the financial services industry, with extensive experience including managing a hybrid FINRA broker-dealer and Registered Investment Advisor firm. Mr. Buffalo is regarded as an expert in these fields with publications in Financial Advisor Magazine and NAIFA’s Advisor Today, as well as being a featured interview in Boomer Market Advisor. Prior to founding Buffalo Financial Solutions, Buffalo was the Chief Executive Officer of a regional broker dealer for over 10 years, where he took an underperforming firm and revamped the business model from a corporate to an independent structure, with an emphasis on attracting brokers with established clientele. While there, the firm consistently produced net profit of 7%, compared to an industry average among peers that ranged between negative to 1.5%, while helping to expand the firm’s overall assets from $400 million to over $2 billion.

Corey Hollister, the Company’s president and CEO, commented: “The Company is excited to have Mr. Buffalo join our team. Mr. Buffalo’s experience in the securities markets, combined with his operational management experience, provides the company with a skill set it is seeking. Recruiting talent from other professional sectors to complement our team of industry experts is an ongoing component to our human capital strategy, with the goal of provided clients with the highest level of service.”

Separately, the Company announced an update to its February 23, 2016 press release, where it reported receiving notice from the U.S. Patent Office that the Company’s claims for its Satchel™ patent application have been deemed allowable, and the patent application will now move on to issuance. The Satchel™ is a child-resistant vessel that may be used by dispensaries to assemble orders and ensure the proper post sale handling of cannabis per each state’s legislation. Although the Company previously disclosed that The Satchel™ had been awarded an approval from the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM),” ASTM does not issue or award approvals. Rather, the testing conducted concerning The Satchel™ was performed in conformity with ASTM standards.
