Cannamerica Provides Corporate Update
VANCOUVER – TheNewswire - January 12, 2022 – CANNAMERICA BRANDS CORP. ("CannAmerica Brands" or the "Company") (CSE:CANA) (CNSX:CANA.CN) (OTC:CNNXF) is pleased to provide a corporate update on the Company’s activities.
During the last year, the Company has focused on increasing its Colorado gummy sales to pre-pandemic (2019) levels. Through the planned Merger and Acquisition of the licensed partner, Arsenal Oils and Extracts, LLC (“Arsenal”) at the end of 2021 (see news releases dated December 16 and December 22, 2021) and the management agreement in place since January 1, 2022, CannAmerica Brands Corp. will now capture the revenues of all Arsenal’s Colorado sales, including its additional brands of popular vape cartridges and CannAmerica edibles. Through controlling the management of the business in the transition and required regulatory approval period by all government agencies that control licensed cannabis operations and the CSE, the Company will create growth for the brand and the business with an increased focus on the promotion of all brands under the Company’s control.
During the next quarter the Company intends to increase sales, create a focus on marketing current as well as new products and apply for a medical marijuana manufacturer of infused products license in Colorado. Arsenal currently has a recreational license in Colorado, by adding a medical license the Company projects an additional $2 million in sales from the medical market in Colorado for 2022, bringing projected sales in Colorado to $4.6 million annually resulting in annual gross profits of $1,426,000, based on gross margins of 31%.
The Company also plans to acquire a larger building in Colorado in 2022, for manufacturing and additional extraction technologies to add to the Company’s concentrates menu, as well as a large kitchen for expanding the Company’s edible product lines and a beverage bottling line to introduce a variety of beverages, initially into the Colorado marketplace. The Company anticipates distributing the expanded product offerings into the other markets in which CannAmerica Brands operates as part of a two-year growth plan. The growth plan includes the acquisition of operators in multiple states, with assets including vertical integration of cultivation, manufacturing and retail dispensaries, in order to transform the business of the Company from a multi-state licensor to a multi-state operator.
The Board of Directors of the Company are focused on expanding the Board, the management team and operations by recruiting experienced professionals with national cannabis and hemp retail expertise to increase the Company’s supply chain and increase distribution of the Company’s branded products.
Mr. Dan Anglin, President and Chief Executive Officer commented “I am extremely proud of the accomplishments of the Company’s personnel and licensing partners since founding the Company in 2015. There have been many challenges in the last two years. The largest impact of the pandemic for management has been the increased time it takes to accomplish the goals we set for the Company. The acquisition and management agreement with Arsenal gives the Company the momentum to begin working on additional business combinations to improve CannAmerica Brands market position and create true value for the stakeholders.”
The Company is proposing to issue 3,000,000 Common Shares to certain directors, officers and consultants of the Company at a deemed price of C$0.10 per share for services provided to the Company during 2021. These persons took severe salary cuts to sustain the Company through the drop in revenues as a result of the pandemic. The Common Shares are being issued at four times over the current market price.
The issuance of the Common Shares is subject to the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange. All Common Shares issued will be subject to a four month hold period under applicable Canadian securities laws.
Additionally, the Company and Flower One Holdings Inc. have mutually terminated the Nevada licensing agreement as part of a settlement for licensing fees owed to CannAmerica Brands Corp.
