Today's podcast overview/transcript:
Good morning and welcome to today's edition of Investorideas.com potcasts - cannabis news and stocks to watch plus insight from thought leaders and experts, brought to you with this month's content partner, CLS Holdings USA, Inc. (OTCQB: CLSH).
Today we will be looking at announcements from Cronos Group Inc. (NASDAQ:CRON) (TSX:CRON), The Supreme Cannabis Company, Inc. (TSXV: FIRE), Xanthic Biopharma Inc. d.b.a. Green Growth Brands (CSE:GGB), Ascent Industries Corp. (CSE: ASNT) and Cannvas MedTech Inc. (CSE: MTEC)
Cronos Group Inc. announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2018.
"We are encouraged with our third quarter results, which reflect the meaningful progress we are making on our strategic initiatives. In the quarter, we announced a number of landmark partnerships to expand our reach beyond the flower and beyond Canada and launched our second differentiated recreational cannabis brand," said Mike Gorenstein, CEO of Cronos Group. "The recent legalization of cannabis sales for adult recreational use in Canada was a watershed moment for our industry and our Company. We are energized by the opportunities this creates for Cronos Group in Canada and look forward to leading the industry forward responsibly."
"As excited as we are about this milestone and our participation in this new market, it's truly just the beginning. Cronos Group is building an innovative global cannabinoid company. The opportunities for our Company extend across the globe as regulations evolve and markets open. The recent initiatives we launched with Gingko Bioworks and Technion are great examples of how we intend to use innovation and our growing intellectual property portfolio to develop new applications for cannabinoids across a range of categories. We are proud of all that we accomplished this quarter, and we are focused on executing on our strategic plan to drive growth and value creation for our shareholders, partners and consumers," concluded Mike Gorenstein.
Highlights from the third quarter 2018 included revenues which totaled $3.8 million, as compared to $1.3 million for the third quarter of 2017, representing an increase of $2.4 million, or 186%. Kilograms of cannabis sold increased 213% in the third quarter from 164 kilograms in the third quarter of 2017 to 514 kilograms in the third quarter of 2018. The main drivers associated with the increase in revenues and the increase in kilograms sold are increased production capacity and increased volumes sold through the domestic medical and international channels, as well as initial shipments into the domestic adult-use recreational market.
The Company also continues to see strong growth in cannabis oil sales, which represented 29% of total revenue in the third quarter of 2018.
The Supreme Cannabis Company, Inc. announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire leading communications and stakeholder relations firm Bayfield Strategy, Inc. Bayfield's CEO, founder and shareholder, Riyaz Lalani, will be appointed to the position of Chief Corporate Officer of the Company where he will help shepherd the Company through its next stage of growth as a leading premium cannabis producer in the world. Bayfield's employees will enter into employment agreements with Supreme Cannabis and assume a variety of roles in corporate operations and stakeholder relations.
Over the last two decades, Mr. Lalani has advised public companies, boards of directors, private equity funds and hedge funds across North America. Prior to founding Bayfield, Mr. Lalani was the Chief Operating Officer of the leading shareholder services firm in Canada. Beforehand he was the head of research for an international asset manager in New York and Toronto, focused on investments in biotechnology, life sciences, resources, and a variety of other industry sectors. Mr. Lalani will contribute a unique and diverse experience set that encompasses capital allocation, strategic communications, and operational execution.
Xanthic Biopharma Inc. d.b.a. Green Growth Brands made its trading debut on the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE) at today's market open under the ticker symbol "GGB". The highly-anticipated listing on the CSE represents the completion of the reverse takeover (RTO) announced by the Company in July 2018.
"Our listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange represents a significant milestone in the journey of building Green Growth Brands," said Peter Horvath, CEO of GGB's operating entity. "The transition to a publicly-traded company will benefit our current investors, give new investors a chance to join us and provide the Company with the currency to facilitate our aggressive growth plan."
"Our team has run multi-billion dollar businesses, operating as number ones in their respective categories, competing for customers in saturated mature markets. We're eager to do it again in the burgeoning North American cannabis industry," continued Horvath.
Ascent Industries Corp., through its wholly owned subsidiary, Thirty Eight Hemp Corp., continues to prepare for an emerging hemp and CBD market. The regulatory regime in the United States relating to CBD is undergoing a significant transformation and the Company believes that the recent mid-term elections in the United States were a positive indication of this. The movement towards the removal of hemp (cannabis with less than 0.3% THC content) from Schedule I of the United States Controlled Substances Act ("CSA") is gaining momentum. When the United States Hemp Farming Act of 2018 (the "Hemp Farming Act") is enacted, hemp is expected to be fully de-scheduled from the CSA, making it an ordinary agricultural commodity and providing a significant market opportunity for hemp derived products.
Through its unique strategic relationship with AgTech Scientific Inc. of Paris, Kentucky, the Company plans to exploit the opportunity expected in the hemp markets to significantly expand its distribution of CBD-based products throughout the United States and internationally.
Ascent's Chief Operating Officer, Reid Parr commented, "The are many reasons for this strategic relationship, but the main reason is that compared to their competitors, AgTech has true vertical integration. They have world class genetics, large scale farming including outdoor and indoor high-tech greenhouses as well as large scale, GMP compliant, state of the art extraction and product manufacturing."
Cannvas MedTech Inc., a leader in digital cannabis education and a leading business technology company in the cannabis space, and Medical Marihuana Patient Relief Inc., a private late-stage ACMPR license applicant, announced the signing of a letter of intent to negotiate, in good faith, a joint marketing agreement whereby the two companies will work together to market and promote cannabis education. Cannvas will become the exclusive provider of cannabis information and education to the MM Patient Relief website and the MM Patient Relief product line will be integrated into the Cannvas Kiosk platform and featured in Cannvas Marché locations on digital marketing screens with fulfillment opportunities.
"We are building MM Patient Relief to be the most physician centric, data driven licensed producer to meet the needs of sophisticated clients who are looking for an effective alternative to pharmaceuticals," said Alex Ciotoli, President, Medical Marihuana Patient Relief Inc. "Working with Cannvas enables us to have the latest education content which is a core component to meeting our objectives."

Investorideas.com - Joint Ventures are Leading the #Cannabis #Beverage Space into the Future; Sproutly Canada (CSE: $SPR.C) (OTCQB: $SRUTF), Hexo Corp. (TSX: $HEXO.TO) (OTC: $HYYDF), Canopy Growth (NYSE: $CGC) (TSX: $WEED. TO)

Investorideas.com - Joint Ventures are Leading the #Cannabis #Beverage Space into the Future; Sproutly Canada (CSE: $SPR.C) (OTCQB: $SRUTF), Hexo Corp. (TSX: $HEXO.TO) (OTC: $HYYDF), Canopy Growth (NYSE: $CGC) (TSX: $WEED. TO)



Joint Ventures are Leading the #Cannabis #Beverage Space into the Future; Sproutly Canada (CSE: $SPR.C) (OTCQB: $SRUTF), Hexo Corp. (TSX: $HEXO.TO) (OTC: $HYYDF), Canopy Growth (NYSE: $CGC) (TSX: $WEED. TO)


Point Roberts, WA - November 13, 2018 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a global news source covering leading sectors including marijuana and hemp stocks releases a sector snapshot with a focus on the recent JV's (joint ventures) and investments in the cannabis infused beverage market.
Why the urgency to invest and partner in the space? Multiple sources including Business Insider quoted recent market projections from Canaccord Genuity reporting," Marijuana-infused beverages could become a $600 million market in the US in the next four years and big beverage makers are looking to take advantage of that opportunity."
"Revenue from cannabis beverages could outpace the general demand for cannabis products by over two times, capturing 20% of the market for marijuana edibles by 2022, according to the analysts."
Most recent JV news hitting the sector; Sproutly Canada, Inc. (CSE: SPR) (OTCQB: SRUTF) (FRA: 38G) just announced that it has entered into a letter of intent with Global Canna Labs Limited, the Caribbean's largest medical cannabis producer, to establish a joint venture for the purpose of developing, producing, distributing, marketing and selling cannabis infused beverages, edibles and topical products derived from Sproutly's fully licensed, APP Technology.
From the news: "Partnering with Global Canna Labs on this joint venture allows Sproutly to expand its business outside of Canada with a leading, low cost cannabis cultivator in Jamaica that has proven distribution in across the Caribbean and expanding into the European Union," said Keith Dolo, Chief Executive Officer and Director of Sproutly. "This partnership will enable Sproutly to diversify its product portfolio and accelerate its global distribution network from a low-cost regulated jurisdiction."
Continued: "Paul Glavine, Chief Executive Officer of Global Canna Labs said, "We are eager to roll out this partnership with Sproutly on their APP technology. We have explored a number of options regarding extraction and cannabis technology solutions for beverage and derivative products - APP Technology is in our view the superior choice for beverage formulations.  With our current supply and expansion plans to over 1 million square feet of cultivation, we see this partnership with Sproutly as a step towards utilization of our large-scale production towards a finished-product strategy."
In early October, a substantial JV cannabis beverage announcement came from Molson Coors Canada (MCC), the Canadian business unit of Molson Coors Brewing Company, and HEXO Corp. (TSX: HEXO) (OTC:HYYDF). They reported the formation of a joint venture to pursue opportunities to develop non-alcoholic, cannabis-infused beverages for the Canadian market following legalization. 
The joint venture, Truss, is led by former Molson Coors executive, Brett Vye, in the role of Chief Executive Officer. Vye reports to the Truss board of directors consisting of three members appointed by MCC and two members appointed by HEXO. 
Mark Hunter, President and CEO of Molson Coors was quoted in an article earlier this month saying "clearly there are lots of numbers being bandied around with regard to the potential size of the cannabis market in Canada." He went on to say, "I think, if you take the average, then it suggests that the market may be somewhere between $7 billion and $10 billion in market value, with beverages somewhere between 20% and 30%, and that's obviously non-alcoholic cannabis infused beverages. Even if you take the low end of that estimate, then it suggests that the beverages segment could be circa $1.5 billion of value. We're well placed to take a meaningful share of that segment."
Not only are many companies looking to be the first to the beverage market, whether locally or internationally, but the consumer demand seems to be pushing that direction as well.
According to one survey, "76% of US and Canadian's surveyed said they would use legal cannabis-infused products for therapeutic reasons, with nearly a quarter indicating that they'd try recreational cannabis via skincare products like lotions, creams and lip balms. 41% of the participants said they'd be more likely to try recreational cannabis through food, slightly higher than the 39% of those surveyed who said they would smoke it."
There has been heavy investment into this concept, the largest example being the $5 Billion CAD [$4 Billion USD] investment from Constellation Brands into Canopy Growth Corp. (NYSE:CGC) (TSX:WEED), though speculation continues around Coca Cola's interest in the Cannabis sector.
In a recent CBC article, Bruce Linton, the founder and co-CEO of Canopy Growth said "new products developed by Tweed represent the next big opportunity."
Continued: "I think if you're not preparing things two years in advance, you're never ready," he said. "Right now, none of the chocolate or gummy bears or beverages can be prepared or sold, but we're doing experiments on how to make them."
Walmart, much like Coca Cola, according New Frontier Data "has also led some investigation into the cannabis market for although Walmart does not sell CBD products, it does sell a variety of hemp-derived products; such as hemp oil, hemp soap, and hemp fiber."
Continued: "At present, none of these large hemp companies sell CBD-related products, but look for some of them to start in 2019 as several leading brands look to expand their product offering into hemp-derived CBD to capitalize on mass market distribution opportunities. For now, all eyes are on the Farm Bill and FDA to give mass markets retailers, like Walmart, the green light to begin selling hemp products with CBD."
As countries race to allow new legalization for cannabis, companies in the sector continue to push to be leading innovators. The next year offers the potential passing of the 2018 Farm Bill as well as the legalization of edibles and beverages in Canada on October 2019, which could see consumers very close to their first ‘cannabeverage'.
Investors can expect to see more money flow and JV's as the sector ramps up.

#Tech News: Gopher Protocol (OTCQB: $GOPH) Announces Guardian Patch Patent Notice of Publication & Published Application

Investorideas Featured Company: Gopher Protocol, Inc. (OTC:GOPH)


Santa Monica, CA - November 13, 2018 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Gopher Protocol Inc. (OTCQB: GOPH) ("Gopher"), a company specializing in the development of Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence enabled mobile technologies, including a global mesh network technology platform for both mobile and fixed solutions, announced today its Notice of Publication and Published Application for the continuation of its Guardian Patch patent. The application was published November 1, 2018 as U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2018/0317049 for enhancements and extra protection in the continuation of its Guardian Patch patent.
Gopher Protocol also filed a continuation for its Guardian Patch technology on July 6, 2018. A continuation will be also filed internationally. In order to enable ongoing enhancement, additional features, updating and extra protection, Gopher filed and recorded an application for continuation on July 6, 2018, application #16/028,449.
In the continuation application, Gopher protected enhancements and updates in order to maintain the technology position as the world's leader in this domain. The Guardian Patch is a communications device that is self-adhesive and is designed to be affixed to any object in order to track it anywhere on Earth. The Guardian Patch can track objects' movements and other data in real time, at any location in the world, including indoors, outdoors, underwater and underground. The system can establish a location completely passively using its own radio technology. The Guardian Patch enables a whole new range of “real-time GEO location analytics”. It can track exactly how many miles an object moved, cities/towns visited, velocity of travel, how long the object was at a specific location, altitude and temperature as well as the object's current movement in real time. The system includes its own power source that is expected to last one year. The Guardian Patch non-provisional patent was granted in the USA on July 10, 2018 and in Europe on October 10, 2018.
Douglas Davis, the Company's Interim CEO, stated: "In order to keep the Guardian Patch as the world's leader in this field, we are constantly working to provide ongoing IP protection for it worldwide. Its US patent was granted on July 10 and we received our European coverage on October 10, 2018. Parts of the Guardian Patch's technology were already implemented within our Guardian ORB system and currently in the works within our MESH system.
The Patch technology is targeted for a wide range of commercial Asset Tracking and Global Mesh Networking use cases, as well as for military/security applications. As with many solutions in technology, our unique, innovative technology platform evolves with constant development and enhancements in order to keep its position at the forefront, and that is why we are filing this continuation to our Guardian Patch patent. It will protect our ongoing intellectual property development in the US and worldwide."

Market Stable Through Weekend, Binance CEO "Not Really" Worried About Low Trading Volumes, Singapore's Central Bank and Stock Exchange Establish Blockchain for Asset Settlement, South Korea's Zeniex to Close Down and US Museum Accepting Bitcoin

Though tumbling about $10 billion USD after Wednesday last week, the crypto market has remained fairly stable over the weekend, hovering between a total market capitalization of $210 billion to the $212 billion at press time, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Bitcoin (BTC) currently trades for $6400 USD and holds a 52.2 percent market dominance.
When asked by Ran Neuner on CNBC's Crypto Trader whether he was "worried" about low trading volumes, Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) said "not really". CZ explained that low volumes were a function of stable prices and that though volumes were much lower than the market's peak seen earlier this year, they were still considerably higher when compared to previous years.
"When there's no movement in price, people trade less, which is understandable. Compared to January, we're probably down 90 percent, so we only have one tenth of the trading volume compared to January. But compared to a year or two years ago, we're still trading at huge volumes."
According to a recent announcement, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and Singapore Exchange Limited (SGX) - the country's central bank and stock exchange, respectively - have successfully leveraged blockchain technology for the settlement of tokenized assets. According to the release, this development will "help simplify post-trade processes and further shorten settlement cycles". The Chief FinTech Officer of MAS, Sopnendu Mohanty, said of the project:
"Blockchain technology and asset tokenization are fuelling a new wave of innovation globally. This project has demonstrated the value of blockchain technology and the benefits it can bring to the financial industry in the short to medium term. The concept of asset tokenization, as well as other learnings gleaned from this project, can potentially be applied to a broad spectrum of the economy, creating a whole new world of opportunities."
After only having been established in May of 2018, South Korean crypto exchange Zeniex is being forced to close down, according to a recent announcement. This comes amid a series of government crackdowns in the country. Trade has already ceased on the platform, but it will formally close down later this month on November 23.
Beginning tomorrow, the Great Lakes Science Center museum in Cleveland, Ohio, will accept Bitcoin as a payment method. According to local outlet Crain's Cleveland Business, will use BitPay to process payments at their box office. The Center's president and CEO, Kirsten Ellenbogen, commented on the move, which was inspired by the Blockchain Solutions Conference.
"There is a lot of excitement around the conference. Accepting bitcoin is just a small part of the momentum to grow a blockchain ecosystem in Cleveland."

Today's podcast overview/transcript:
Good afternoon and welcome to another Investorideas.com Potcast – following Cannabis news, stocks to watch as well as insights from thought leaders and experts.
Today we will be looking at announcements from Beleave Inc. (CSE: BE) (OTCQX: BLEVF), Planet 13 Holdings Inc. (CSE: PLTH) (OTCQB: PLNHF), Aurora Cannabis Inc. (TSX:ACB) (NYSE: ACB) and Newstrike Brands Ltd. (TSX-V:HIP)
Beleave Inc. announced that it has secured genetics acquisition agreements for a broad range of cannabis seed varieties from diverse lineages.
There will be a total of 90 new varieties introduced in the coming year that have been selected to cover the entire spectrum of low, intermediate, and high THC and CBD profiles. The list includes well-known classic Sativa and Indica varieties with applications for both medical and adult recreational markets. Also included in the selection are a number of novel strains, not previously available in the Canadian market, which have been bred for select terpene profiles to offer distinct custom flavours and aromas.
Last week, Health Canada notified the Company that their existing license under the ACMPR had been updated for the new system reflecting the changes under the Cannabis Act.
In the coming months, Beleave will be completing construction and upgrades on new facilities in Ontario and British Columbia. Once completed, they will greatly increase the Company's production capacity allowing Beleave to help supply the demands of Canada's growing cannabis market.
"We are very happy with the new varieties being introduced and the potential they have for Beleave's future. Our master grower has been working tirelessly to select and secure these strains," said Beleave CEO, Andrew Wnek. "Our whole team has been working aggressively to bring us to this point. Whether it's our increasing production capacity, expanded global distribution, or these new cannabis varieties; Beleave is ready."
Planet 13 Holdings Inc., a leading vertically-integrated Nevada cannabis company, announced today that it has launched its second wholly-owned brand, TRENDI.
"The TRENDI line of products is specifically designed to appeal to our Las Vegas Strip tourist clientele," said Larry Scheffler, Co-CEO of Planet 13. "The design is based directly on the feedback we have received over the years from visitors to Las Vegas, who are uniformly seeking a sleek, compact, easy-to-use disposable vape and concentrate product that offers a premium feel and quality experience even if they are only in town for a few days."
TRENDI represents expertly crafted disposable vape and concentrate products that create the trend, not the other way around. Utilizing state-of-the-art hydro carbon extraction technology further refined by fractional distillation, TRENDI delivers an exceptionally high potency product that enables our premium customer base to stand out from the crowd.
Overseen by Planet 13's VP of Operations and award-winning grower Chris Wren1, TRENDI will be powered by a curated variety of strains, processed into ultra-premium disposable vapes and concentrates at Planet 13's production facilities. The TRENDI line of products will be exclusive to the Planet 13 Superstore.
Aurora Cannabis Inc., announced its financial and operational results for the first quarter ended September 30, 2018.
On October 17, 2018, sales of cannabis for adult consumer use in Canada, legalized through Bill C45, commenced. Aurora recorded a strong performance, ranking top or among the top selling products and brands in many of the provinces the Company committed to supplying, for the first two weeks to October 31, 2018.
Provincial Highlights, for the first quarter included Aurora brands accounting for approximately 30% of the total market supplied through the OCS, with San Rafael as the top selling brand in ON and Aurora supplying two of the three top selling products
In BC Aurora had the top 4 best-selling dried flower products in BC and 3 of top 8 best-selling oil and capsule products.
In PEI Aurora and MedReleaf are 2 of the 6 top best-selling LPs in the province, with Aurora being the 2nd largest for overall revenue with more than 450 unique SKUs launched across Canada.
First quarter 2019 highlights included a revenue of $29,674,000 up 260% compared to the same period in 2018.
Pro-forma Q1 2019 revenue of $35,752,000 including MedReleaf (consolidated as of July 25, 2018), Anandia (consolidated as of August 8, 2018) and Agropro (consolidated as of September 10, 2018)
Gross margin on cannabis of 70%, up 12% points compared to the first quarter of 2018, and down slightly by 4% points compared to Q4 2018. The increase versus Q1 2018 was primarily due to a higher average selling price per gram of dried cannabis, coupled with a higher proportion of cannabis oil sales in the Company's sales mix ratio. The slight decrease from Q4 2018 was due to higher average packaging costs related to the inclusion of MedReleaf's relatively higher packaging costs and an overall increase in packaging costs due to the stringent regulatory requirements of the Cannabis Act.
The first quarter also saw active registered medical patients increase to 67,484,000 up 250% compared to the first quarter of 2018, as well as the introduction of Aurora Cloud, making Aurora the first and, to the company's knowledge, only LP supplying a vape-ready CBD oil cartridge to the market.
Newstrike Brands Ltd. announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary Up Cannabis Inc. ("Up Cannabis"), has had its licences issued under the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations (ACMPR) successfully migrated to licences under the Cannabis Act and its regulations for both its Brantford and Niagara Facilities. This migrated licence issued for the Niagara greenhouse adds the ability to sell cannabis in all acceptable forms produced within the facility.
"The migrated licences from Health Canada allow us to bring to market cannabis products cultivated at our flagship Niagara Facility," said Jay Wilgar, CEO of Newstrike and Up Cannabis. "As we complete the 240,000 square foot retrofit of the Niagara Facility later this year and expand to 455,000 square feet in 2019, we are in a great position to support our provincial partners, meet increasing demand from consumers and expand the Up Cannabis brand."
Up Cannabis products are currently available through licenced provincial retail channels throughout Canada.
