The company hasn’t generated positive cash flow from operations yet, but its management team expects to achieve that feat by the third quarter of 2020. Until that point, the company said it has enough capital to execute its business strategy.
At the end of October, the company has a cash position of $11.5 million, including GICs totaling $9.1 million and working capital of $11.7 million. That compares to $1.2 million and working capital of $900,000 at the end of fiscal 2018.
The company noted highlights from the year, including a pair of agreements with Weed Me Inc in September. The first deal is a bulk order of cannabis biomass, the first shipment of which arrived during the last week of August.
