CannabisNewsBreaks – The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF) Welcomes New Investors, Releases Update on Aurora Ownership

September 4, 2019 12:01:37

Cannabis-focused research and development company The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF) today commented on the recent transaction between Aurora Cannabis (TSX: ACB) and a syndicate of Canadian banks. Per the update, the block trade was executed on September 3 after market close and resulted in the exchange of a total of 28.8 million shares, each at a negotiated price of $3.00. The Edmonton-based company continues to retain a large number of TGOD warrants equivalent to approximately 5% of its fully diluted shares, and the transaction significantly improves TGOD’s revenue and gross margin mix due to the repatriation of TGOD’s premium organic cannabis previously earmarked for Aurora under an agreement between the parties. “Aurora has been an excellent partner during TGOD’s initial development phase; their investment played an important role in our success. The relationship added significant value across multiple areas of the business, including the initial design and construction of our Canadian facilities,” TGOD CEO Brian Athaide said in the news release. “This is the right next step in the relationship as both companies mature and our respective strategies evolve. It also improves TGOD’s revenue and margin potential on the sale of our premium organic cannabis.”

Targeting the fruit, vegetable, turf, ornamentals and cannabis industries, MustGrow has designed a U.S. EPA-approved organic solution that uses the mustard seed’s natural defense mechanisms to protect plants from pests and diseases. Approximately $9 million has been spent on 110 independent tests, validating MustGrow’s remarkably safe and effective granular product. MustGrow’s granular product is EPA approved across all key U.S. states as a fertilizer and pesticide (currently limited to fertilizer in California) and is designated by Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency as a fruit, vegetable, turf and ornamental biopesticide and biofertilizer. In the cannabis space, MustGrow is currently developing reliable, safe and biological solutions that adhere to Health Canada’s strict regulations. MustGrow is positioning its signature product as an effective preplant soil treatment, reducing the chance for any added soil to a greenhouse to bring in pests or diseases. MustGrow expects its biopesticide and biofertilizer will help licensed cannabis producers control the same conditions addressed in fruit and vegetable crops.

CannabisNewsBreaks – Organigram Holdings Inc. (TSX.V: OGI) (NASDAQ: OGI) Gains Media Attention Following Four Profitable Quarters

August 29, 2019 12:03:55

Organigram Holdings (TSX.V: OGI) (NASDAQ: OGI), the parent company of Organigram Inc., a leading licensed producer of cannabis, recently received coverage in a Bloomberg article discussing OGI’s financial results for the last four quarters (http://cnw.fm/sBS4g). An article further discussing the company reads, “Organigram’s Q3 and fiscal year-to-date results represent some of the strongest operating and financial metrics amongst Canadian licensed producers. With one of the lowest cultivation costs per gram and continued discipline on selling, general and administrative expenses, Organigram’s results place it in the top tier of the Canadian industry. . . . As per the Bloomberg article, Organigram’s sustainable profitability is an outlier due to the fact that the industry has been experiencing some negative developments. Regulatory measures have been undertaken in Canada against some of the cultivators to ensure compliance. Other firms have been registering lower than expected sales, significant negative-adjusted EBITDA and shrinking margins in recent quarters.”

CannabisNewsBreaks – MustGrow Biologics Corp. (CSE: MGRO) Developing Natural Biopesticide Products to Ensure Compliant, Pest-Free Cannabis Production

August 23, 2019 12:07:35

Agricultural biotech company MustGrow Biologics (CSE: MGRO) is engaged in the development and commercialization of a portfolio of natural biopesticides and biofertilizer products for the cannabis industry. A recent article discussing the company reads, “Canada’s licensed producers (‘LPs’) are required by law to demonstrate that no unauthorized pesticides were used on their products or contaminated them (http://cnw.fm/QFu7L), and mandatory testing is underway to ensure that LPs comply. Failure of Health Canada’s sampling and testing program for unauthorized pest control products could result in product seizure or destruction, recall of products sold, suspension or revocation of the firm’s license, or a monetary penalty of up to C$1 million, according to Health Canada. . . . Through MustGrow’s eventual suite of biostimulant/biofertilizer offerings, Canadian cannabis license holders may have access to products that aid in the production of compliant, pest-free cannabis. MustGrow’s science-based suite of signature products have already demonstrated control of many soil-borne diseases and pests that affect cannabis production, including Botrytis (grey mold), Pythium root rot, Rhizoctonia fungus, Fusarium, nematodes, Verticillium wilt, Phytophthora root rot and Sclerotinia. MustGrow’s products are recognized as safe and are EPA- and PRMA-approved for use on fruits and vegetables.”

About MustGrow Biologics Corp.

MustGrow is an agricultural biotech company focused on developing and commercializing its patented natural biologic product that acts as a pesticide, fungicide nematicide and fertilizer. Targeting the fruit, vegetable, turf, ornamentals and cannabis industries, MustGrow has designed a U.S. EPA-approved organic solution that uses the mustard seed’s natural defense mechanisms to protect plants from pests and diseases. Approximately $9 million has been spent on 110 independent tests, validating MustGrow’s remarkably safe and effective granular product. MustGrow’s granular product is EPA-approved across all key U.S. states as a fertilizer and pesticide (currently limited to fertilizer in California) and is designated by Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency as a fruit, vegetable, turf and ornamental biopesticide and biofertilizer. In the cannabis space, MustGrow is currently developing reliable, safe and biological solutions that adhere to Health Canada’s strict regulations. MustGrow is positioning its signature product as an effective preplant soil treatment, reducing the chance for any added soil to a greenhouse to bring in pests or diseases. MustGrow expects its biopesticide and biofertilizer will help licensed cannabis producers control the same conditions addressed in fruit and vegetable crops.
