Management Commentary:

“Since the acquisition of LEEF Holdings, Inc. (“LEEF”) in the spring, management has focused our efforts on integrating the two organizations and identifying and removing redundancies,” said Micah Anderson, Chief Executive Officer. “Additionally, in that period, we have been actively fortifying our team and have commenced the implementation of our strategic objective of shifting our overall focus to higher margin, internally developed CPG products. I am very pleased with our financial results to date and with our continued progress in building on the success of our internally developed brands, such as Real Deal Resin and Ganja Gold.”

“Although the California cannabis industry continues to face many challenges, our company has an extremely strong stable of clients that look to us as an industry leader to help ensure their continued success. We continue to be the engine that powers many of the largest brands in California and for that reason, have continued to perform exceptionally well in a difficult time for our industry. With all of this, I remain confident in the direction that we are going and in the robust opportunities that lay ahead.”
