  • Production began of our THC Kiss—a brand new cannabis beverage product
  • A new three-year lease began for a property adjacent to our production facility intended for administration, storage, and other activities not related to cannabis production in order to free up space at the production facility by constructing four new grow rooms with the space once it is renovated and approval received from Health Canada

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

"We are proud to have achieved our second consecutive profitable quarter. We have surpassed the $1,000,000 revenue mark for each of the first two quarters of this fiscal year. Our financial statements for Q2 2020 reflect the improvements we have realized in all key indicators of economic progress. Over the last year, we have completed and started using new grow rooms to increase our output. Our focus on high quality, indoor-grown cannabis at reasonable prices has made our cannabis a best seller," said THC BioMed President & CEO, John Miller. "These results demonstrate the vision and abilities of our management team and we expect to continue this high level of performance going forward."

All financial information in this press release is reported in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated. This press release is intended to be read in conjunction with the Company's Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Management's Discussion & Analysis for the six months ended January 31, 2020, which has been filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).
