(firmenpresse) - Aleafia Health Welcomes Changes to Cannabis Licensing, Completes Largest Ever Product Sale
TORONTO, ON, May 9, 2019 - Aleafia Health Inc. (TSX: ALEF, OTC: ALEAF, FRA: ARAH) (Aleafia Health or the Company) has completed the largest adult-use cannabis order (the Order) in the Companys history today. The Order is scheduled to depart from the Companys facility today, with delivery to a Canadian provincial government for distribution to online and retail consumers. It will contain the Companys branded Symbl oils, oral sprays and dried flower products.
The value of the Order is expected to generate proceeds from the sale of cannabis exceeding $0.7 million. In the first 38 days of Q2 2019, including the revenue to be obtained from the Order, the Company has received adult-use cannabis product orders from three Canadian provincial governments of over $1.2 million in gross revenue, representing significant growth when compared to the sale of cannabis revenues generated during 2018. Previously, in its 2018 audited financial statements, Aleafia Health recognized revenues from the sale of cannabis of $0.6 million, derived exclusively from wholesale transactions of dried flower to a Licensed Producer.
We are extremely pleased to report the largest ever cannabis sale in our Companys history, said Aleafia Health CEO Geoffrey Benic. Furthermore, with our Niagara Greenhouse and Outdoor Grow expansion in a plant-ready state, the assets are now in place to scale our cannabis health and wellness vision exponentially and build on todays results.
Company Welcomes Health Canadas Changes to Cannabis Licensing
Aleafia Health is also providing comment on changes to cannabis licensing announced by Health Canada on May 8, 2019.
Aleafia Health welcomes Health Canadas changes to cannabis licensing announced yesterday. These changes will alleviate product shortages and application backlogs, while spurring job creation in local communities as more completed facilities become operational. We fully support these measures, said Aleafia Health CEO Geoffrey Benic. Additionally, by increasing supply, Health Canada will make continued progress towards eliminating the black market for cannabis, which is an important policy objective of federal and provincial governments and all responsible stakeholders.
