Operational Highlights:

Quarter ended May 31, 2022:

  • Further delay in approval of Michigan CBD to THC conversion technology rollout as a result of a change in cannabis regulations. Completed re-formulations, testing and submission amended to exclude Delta 8 from the active ingredient contained within the QuickStrip™. During the approval process the cost of THC sold in the state decreased by up to 90% resulting in reduced margins for the Company’s Michigan based customer.
  • The Company signed an MSS agreement with Skycare Compounding Labs, a leader in compounding services which opens up a new market for the production of oral thin film strips of approved pharmaceuticals for the Canadian market. Formulation and testing of a first round of pharmaceutical products has been completed and is in the approval process.
  • QuickStrip™ delivery system for Africa selected as finalist (runner up winner) at UNECE 15th session of the Committee on Innovation, Competitiveness and Public-Private Partnerships world-wide competition.
  • The Company signed an agreement with Oakland Health to distribute nutraceutical products in the UK. Products have been selected with packaging completed, awaiting completion of market consumer awareness and acceptance data to build out marketing strategy and commercial budgets.

Quarter ended August 31, 2022:

  • The Company signed an agreement to produce white label products for Phoena Cannabis for the recreational and medical cannabis markets in Canada with four products launched through Ontario Cannabis Stores and western province stores.

Quarter ended November 30, 2022:

  • Research and development activities including consumer insights advanced to create a safer alternative to smoking format using QuickStrip nicotine.
