Management Commentary

Felipe de la Vega, Medcolcanna President and CEO, commented: "We are pleased to report further progress during the Q2 financial reporting period, including the expansion of additional hectares of commercial greenhouses, recognition of a significant amount of revenue from the sale of a working interest to Dona Blanca, a small net income for the 3 months ended June 30th, 2020, and approval for listing on the NEO.”

Chris Reid, CFO, commented: “We were able to exit the quarter with a working capital balance of $0.4 million, we also raised $2.6M subsequent to quarter end, further increasing the Company’s treasury. We are pleased that the Company was able to break even for the 3 months ended June 30, 2020, with a small net income due to the non-recuring revenue sale of a working interest to Dona Blanca. The Company also received its final approvals for commercial production of cannabis during the quarter and thus was able to begin commercial harvests and record inventory related to those harvests.
