Point Roberts, WA and Delta, BC – September 9, 2019 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resource covering hemp and cannabis stocks releases a snapshot reporting on the Nevada cannabis market and how specifically, Las Vegas is drawing in more consumers and driving more businesses.
In recent sector news it’s been reported that Nevada’s cannabis industry has given more than $100 million in taxes and fees to the state for the first time since recreational marijuana became legal in 2017.
For the fiscal year 2019, dispensaries, cultivators, laboratories and producers have paid over $109 million, according to a September 4, 2019 release from the Nevada Dispensary Association.
NDA says that $99.18 million was paid in taxes, up nearly $25 million from 2018.
“These sales and tax figures are a milestone that should be celebrated by the people of Nevada,” said Riana Durrett of the Dispensary Association. “It shows that the public and visitors to Las Vegas from around the nation are becoming more comfortable purchasing cannabis and the industry is improving its ability to serve the public.”
Las Vegas is also now home to one of the preeminent cannabis conferences, MJBizCon, which is one of the largest gatherings of cannabis business professionals. Ranked as the fastest-growing trade show in the United States, it has grown to over 27,000 attendees since it started in 2012, with an expected 35,000 attendees for the upcoming show taking place December 11-13, 2019 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas.
Global Payout Inc. (OTC: GOHE) and its wholly owned subsidiary MTrac Tech Corporation announced that the Company has expanded its Las Vegas operations office by acquiring office space directly adjacent to the office MTrac has utilized as the hub for its operational team for more than a year.
The significant growth surge the Company has experienced this year onboarding and servicing some of the largest retail and delivery service companies in the cannabis industry has led the Company to strategically add talented new members to its operations support team at a steady, yet effective rate over the last several months. As a result, the Company was thrilled to take advantage of an opportunity that became available to them to acquire additional office space in the adjoining unit to their current office.
“Growth is always an exciting thing to experience as a company,” said Global Payout COO, David Flores. “The core of our team has been intact since we first began our mission of cornering the payment processing sector in the cannabis industry over a year ago, and they have done a phenomenal job managing and contributing to this impressive influx of business. However, as we continue to expand, and as the overall demand for our solution continues to push towards new heights, it is critical that our team is able to successfully meet the needs and demands of a growing client base to ensure that our pledge for exceptional service is never compromised. This expansion provides us with much-needed flexibility to sensibly and efficiently add key members to our operational support staff who are vital in managing the day-to-day responsibilities involved with running our business effectively.”
“The location of the MTrac office is strategic for our headquarters, only a few miles from the airport, adjacent to the Las Vegas strip and in a prime real estate location near the new stadium. Recent renovations were done to the building and MTrac will have a live demo area where clients can come experience the ease of the system in the coming months.”
Planet 13 Holdings Inc. (CSE: PLTH) (OTCQX: PLNHF), a leading vertically-integrated Nevada cannabis company, recently announced that it served an average of 2,027 customers per day in August at an average ticket of $90.25 from the Planet 13 Las Vegas Cannabis Entertainment Complex.
“The highly competitive Las Vegas market ‘The SuperStore’ continues to dominate based on the strength of the customer experience and the unique entertainment it offers,” said Bob Groesbeck, Co-CEO of Planet 13. “Over the rest of the year we will continue to rollout new and exciting restaurants, stores and attractions allowing customers to eat, shop, and play all under one cannabis inspired roof.”
The company also recently reported second-quarter revenues of $16.5 million, up by 275% year-over-year.
Green Growth Brands Inc. (CSE: GGB) (OTC: GGBXF) recently announced the closing of its acquisition of Henderson Organic Remedies, LLC (The+Source Henderson), which was previously disclosed on December 14, 2018. The+Source Henderson is the second The+Source dispensary operated by GGB in greater Las Vegas. The productivity of The+Source Henderson is similar to that of The+Source Las Vegas.
“The+Source Henderson has been under our management for the last nine months,” said Peter Horvath, CEO of Green Growth Brands. “In that time, we have grown revenue, transactions and gross margin by double digits. Our ability to significantly improve top performing dispensaries, in a market that has seen a significant uptick in competition, is a testament to our expertise in retail operations.”
The formal acquisition of the company brings GGB’s Las Vegas assets to two The+Source locations, one production facility, two cultivation facilities and seven licenses to operate dispensaries awarded by the Nevada Department of Taxation.
Green Thumb Industries Inc. (CSE:GTII) (OTC: GTBIF), a leading national cannabis consumer packaged goods company and owner of Rise and Essence retail stores, recently reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019.
Second quarter 2019 revenue increased 228% year-over-year to $44.7 million while quarter-over-quarter revenue increased 60%, a record sequential growth for GTI. Revenue growth was driven by organic growth across the Company’s consumer products and retail businesses, strategic acquisitions and increased store traffic.
“We are pleased to report another solid quarter of positive yet disciplined momentum with record revenue and positive adjusted operating EBITDA as our strategic plan delivers on operating efficiencies from scale. Continued execution of key priorities such as the closing of Integral Associates, accelerated store openings, and expanded distribution of our brand portfolio sets us up well for the future,” said GTI Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Ben Kovler.
“We are deep in the chapter of maximizing the levers in our business to drive long-term operational performance that delivers value for our shareholders and the communities in which we operate,” Kovler continued. “We are focused on optimizing our wholesale and retail businesses, integrating our acquisitions, and further strengthening compliance across the organization. We are pleased to see many of these efforts are already bearing fruit as we head into the second half of 2019 and I want to thank our team for all of their hard work.”
On June 5th, GTI successfully completed the acquisition of Integral Associates LLC, with integration efforts and synergies progressing on schedule. The acquisition added two cultivation and processing facilities in Las Vegas, supporting expanded wholesale distribution of GTI’s branded products portfolio in Nevada.
Following the closing of the acquisition of Integral Associates on June 5th, the company’s co-founders Armen and Alex Yemenidijian joined GTI as President and Director, respectively. Armen was the co-founder and CEO of Integral Associates, Nevada’s leading operator and was previously the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Tropicana Las Vegas Hotel & Casino, Inc. and Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc.
Las Vegas has been well known for its tourism industry and as a greater number of tourists and locals begin to feel more comfortable with the legal cannabis market, and as the market evolves and becomes more efficient, the city and state are creating a huge draw for the cannabis sector. Whether it’s already established MSO’s or celebrity endorsed businesses such as Mike Tyson’s Ranch, Vegas is now starting to bear the fruits of a maturing cannabis industry and many are taking note, just waiting to take a bite.

- Study compared Caliper Foods’ proprietary, patent-pending water-soluble cannabinoid technology, Caliper CBD, with CBD in a carrier oil
- Observed total bioavailability of Caliper water-soluble CBD was 4.5 times greater than CBD in a carrier oil
- Higher cannabinoid absorption was observed for Caliper CBD within 15 minutes compared to the maximum absorption of CBD in oil in 45 minutes.
TORONTO and DENVER, Sept. 9, 2019 – The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. (the “Company” or “TGOD”) (TSX:TGOD) (US:TGODF), a leading producer of premium certified organic cannabis, and Caliper Foods (formerly Stillwater Foods), a best-in-class provider of water-soluble cannabinoid products, are pleased to unveil the results of a preliminary human pharmacokinetic (“PK“) study of Caliper CBD, Caliper Foods’ proprietary tasteless and odourless water-soluble powder that can be added to almost any food or beverage.
TGOD intends to commercialize organic cannabinoid dissolvables in Canada beginning in December 2019 under the TGOD-Infusers line of premium cannabis products. The Company has already developed novel fast-acting formulations leveraging this technology with its lineup of organic teas, shots, chewables, and ready-to-drink beverages. In the US, Caliper Foods plans to release Caliper CBD, its own line of precision-dosed CBD dissolvables, this fall.
For this study, half of the participants were administered 30mg of Caliper Foods’ water-soluble CBD powder in 8oz of water while the other half received 30mg of CBD dispersed in MCT oil. Blood samples were drawn at pre-determined times over six hours. Early data shows that the group that received Caliper CBD demonstrated faster onset within 15 minutes, with higher concentrations achieved at 15 minutes compared to the maximum concentration achieved at 45 min with the CBD in oil formulation, and a 4.5-fold higher observed total bioavailability. The CBD was largely eliminated from the body after about 6 hours for both Caliper CBD and CBD oil subjects, and a more rapid reduction was observed with the Caliper CBD subjects after 45 minutes.
Following this promising initial study, TGOD and Caliper Foods will shortly conduct a confirmatory Clinical Phase 1A PK study that will test the Caliper CBD technology formulated into TGOD’s planned portfolio of products including beverages, teas, Infusers, and capsules. The study will be conducted in collaboration with a leading US academic institution.
“We are delighted with these PK results as they confirm the enhanced bioavailability and consistent absorption rates of our proprietary ingredient technology, which can infuse both CBD and THC. This study confirms that consumers absorb 4.5 times more CBD with Caliper CBD than with CBD in MCT oil,” commented Keith Woelfel, Director of R&D at Caliper Foods. “Our R&D team is working closely with TGOD on the next phase of the clinical study, which, if it confirms the PK results in additional product forms, will make Caliper Foods’ and TGOD’s product suites highly differentiated in terms of substantiated quality.”
“We are thrilled with the results of this preliminary PK study which demonstrate the consistency and precision of Caliper Foods’ proven proprietary technology which is already available in Colorado and which TGOD will commercialize in Canada. Based on this early data, Caliper CBD provides a higher and faster absorption level when compared with CBD-infused oil, which opens a number of possibilities for both the medical and adult-use markets. Patients and consumers are increasingly informed and savvy, and we plan to seize on the market demand for organic CBD and THC-infused products backed by data-driven science and clinical evidence,” commented Dr. Rav Kumar, Chief Science Officer of TGOD. “We are enthusiastically awaiting our Clinical Phase 1A PK results in time for Cannabis 2.0 in Canada.”
Caliper Foods’ technology consists of a suite of zero-calorie, fast-acting, water-soluble solutions that can simply and easily infuse cannabinoids into beverages, food, and other consumer goods. It is formulated to quickly absorb into the bloodstream with a predictable onset and offset, allowing these products to offer a consistent, controlled, and safe experience. While cannabinoids are naturally fat-soluble and tend to have a bitter taste, Caliper Foods’ ingredient technology eliminates the need for fat molecules to speed absorption or added sugar to mask the bitterness. As a result, it enables healthier, better-tasting products with no additional fat, sugar, or artificial flavours.
TGOD has an exclusive agreement with Caliper Foods to license the Caliper CBD’s ingredient technology, as well as other proprietary beverage and food technologies and formulations related to cannabinoid-infused consumer packaged goods within Canada and distribute to certain international jurisdictions outside of the United States.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 9, 2019 — SRAX, Inc. (NASDAQ: SRAX), a digital marketing and consumer data management technology company, today announces it has entered into new partnerships with major consumer packaged goods (CPG) brands to launch BIG Rewards™, a new feature of SRAX’s consumer-managed data marketplace, BIGtoken. BIG Rewards™ enables marketers to engage BIGtoken’s nearly 16 million users to participate in brand research and exclusive offers, effectively expanding BIGtoken’s commercial capabilities, and solving data problems across the digital marketing and advertising industry.
Through BIG Rewards™, U.S. BIGtoken users will have the ability to earn bonus points for participating in exclusive promotions with specific brands and retailers, and for taking part in brand research. Users can participate by first completing a short survey about a brand, retailer, or product; they can then scan their receipts for related product purchases to earn bonus BIGtoken points. BIG Rewards™ not only provides users with the opportunity to benefit from discounts on their everyday purchases, it also enables users to get paid immediately on those earnings.
“This initiative represents one of many ways we can provide BIGtoken offerings beyond data targeting,” says Kristoffer Nelson, COO of SRAX and co-founder of BIGtoken. “BIG Rewards™ addresses the need for brand research during a time when consumers’ behavior towards brands are in constant flux. BIGtoken is quickly becoming a one-stop shop, enabling brands to utilize the BIG platform for research and build digital media campaigns around deep insights.”
“This commercial expansion will be extremely valuable in the shopper marketing space especially as data regulation continues to grow,” says George Stella, Vice President of SRAX Shopper, SRAX’s shopper marketing vertical. “Increased data regulation will make it challenging for media partners to activate against the current state of data. BIG Rewards™ allows brands to position themselves as advocates for their customers’ privacy.

NEW YORK, Sept. 06, 2019 — via NetworkNewsAudio – Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (CSE: LXX) (OTCQX: LXRP) announces the availability of a NetworkNewsAudio publication titled, “Innovative Drug-Delivery Systems Benefit Patients and Businesses.”

Drugs play an essential role in treating anything from a mild headache to life-threatening disease — and everything in between. While effectiveness of drugs is what most often captures the spotlight, that effectiveness is closely associated with the drug-delivery technology used, and innovation in this space may have a huge impact on how successful a drug can be.
Lexaria Bioscience Corp.’s DehydraTECH(TM) may be the most novel form of drug delivery discovered in decades. Fatty acids used in the technology mask the smell and taste of the drug and potentially greatly reduce stomach upset. This allows it to be added to all sorts of foods and drinks — oral delivery — without relying on artificial flavors or loads of sugar to mask a drug. This is useful not just for nicotine but for other pharmaceuticals as well.
About Lexaria Bioscience Corp.
Lexaria Bioscience has developed and out-licenses its disruptive delivery technology, which promotes healthier ingestion methods, lower overall dosing and higher effectiveness of lipophilic active molecules. Lexaria has multiple patents pending in over 40 countries around the world and has patents granted in the United States and Australia for utilization of its DehydraTECH delivery technology. Lexaria’s technology provides increases in intestinal absorption rates, more rapid delivery to the bloodstream, and important taste-masking benefits for orally administered bioactive molecules including cannabinoids, vitamins, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), nicotine and other molecules.

NEW YORK, Sept. 06, 2019 — via NetworkNewsAudio – Genprex Inc. (NASDAQ:GNPX) announces the availability of a NetworkNewsAudio publication titled “Gene Therapy Treatments Offer Hope for Cancer Patients.”

Recent developments in gene therapy hold out hope for the treatment of a wide range of diseases, including fatal lung cancer.
Imagined in the 1970s and first carried out in the 1980s, gene therapy is one of the newest frontiers in medicine. The therapy involves the delivery of nucleic acids, the tiny building blocks of life, into human cells. This can rewrite the genetics of cells, removing parts that are causing ill health and strengthening those that fight disease.
A number of companies have emerged with the aim of applying gene therapy to specific diseases. For example, Genprex Inc. (NASDAQ:GNPX) specializes in tackling non-small cell lung cancer through its developmental drug Oncoprex(TM).
About Genprex Inc.
Genprex Inc. is a clinical stage gene therapy company developing potentially life-changing technologies for cancer patients, based upon a unique proprietary technology platform, including Genprex’s initial product candidate, Oncoprex™ immunogene therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Genprex’s platform technologies are designed to administer cancer-fighting genes by encapsulating them into nanoscale hollow spheres called nanovesicles, which are then administered intravenously and taken up by tumor cells where they express proteins that are missing or found in low quantities. Oncoprex has a multimodal mechanism of action whereby it interrupts cell-signaling pathways that cause replication and proliferation of cancer cells, re-establishes pathways for apoptosis, or programmed cell death, in cancer cells, and modulates the immune response against cancer cells. Oncoprex has also been shown to block mechanisms that create drug resistance.

TORONTO, Sept. 4, 2019
- Improves revenue and margin potential by recovering offtake of TGOD’s premium organic cannabis
- Boosts TGOD’s institutional ownership ahead of potential NASDAQ listing
- Unlocks opportunities for new relationships with third party partners
TORONTO, Sept. 4, 2019 – The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. (the “Company” or “TGOD”) (TSX:TGOD) (US:TGODF) comments on the recent transaction between Aurora Cannabis (“Aurora”) (TSX:ACB) and a syndicate of Canadian banks. The block trade was executed on September 3 after market close. A total of 28.8 million shares were exchanged at a negotiated price of $3.00 per unit. The Edmonton-based company still retains a large number of TGOD warrants equivalent to approximately 5% of the Company’s fully diluted shares.
This transaction significantly improves TGOD’s revenue and gross margin mix due to the repatriation of TGOD’s premium organic cannabis previously earmarked for Aurora under the Investor Rights Agreement (the “Agreement“) between the parties. The Agreement included a revenue sharing model with Aurora which would have lowered TGOD’s average selling price and margins.
“Aurora has been an excellent partner during TGOD’s initial development phase; their investment played an important role in our success. The relationship added significant value across multiple areas of the business, including the initial design and construction of our Canadian facilities,” commented Brian Athaide, CEO of TGOD. ” This is the right next step in the relationship as both companies mature and our respective strategies evolve. It also improves TGOD’s revenue and margin potential on the sale of our premium organic cannabis,” added Athaide.

(TSX: TGOD) (US: TGODF) is a publicly traded, premium global organic cannabis company, with operations focused on medical cannabis markets in Canada, Europe, the Caribbean and Latin America, as well as the Canadian adult-use market.

TORONTO, Sept. 3, 2019 – The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. (the “Company” or “TGOD”) (TSX:TGOD) (US:TGODF), a leading producer of premium certified organic cannabis, is pleased to announce that it has obtained approval from Health Canada, under the Cannabis Regulations, to expand operations into its new hybrid greenhouse located in Hamilton, Ontario. The 123,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility will serve to increase TGOD’s premium organic cannabis production as it expands its sales in Canada.
TGOD’s hybrid greenhouse is the fruit of years of research and development. From its cutting-edge climate control systems and water recapture systems to LED lighting, it combines the latest technologies with natural elements such as living soil and natural sunlight. This organic growing facility has a much better environmental footprint and lower waste than traditional large-scale cannabis growing.
“We are thrilled to start using this purpose-built hybrid greenhouse as we ramp up our production of premium organic cannabis, an underserved segment of the market,” commented Brian Athaide, CEO of TGOD. “Our team pioneered the concept of growing organic cannabis at scale; this hybrid greenhouse has been artfully designed for organic cultivation, allowing us to reliably produce clean, safe and non irradiated cannabis.”
The new facility is the third phase of TGOD’s Hamilton site, measuring 166,000 square feet with an annual production capacity of 17,500 kgs of premium organic cannabis. In line with its commitment to sustainability, TGOD aims to have the building LEED certified.
The Company is also seeking an eGMP certification for this facility in order to allow for global exports, as laws and regulations permit.
