“We were pleased to be recognized by the Globe and Mail’s annual survey as the 7th fastest growing company in Canada with a three-year revenue growth rate of 5,413%. Delta 9’s annual revenues have grown from less than $1 Million in 2017 to over $52 Million in 2020, and we continue to see growth trending in 2021,” said John Arbuthnot, CEO. “In the third quarter of 2021 we have seen a degree of seasonality and timing issues relating to provincial government’s purchasing patterns affecting our wholesale business and impacting sequential revenue growth. We remain bullish that the remainder of 2021 looks to outperform last year’s results.”

 

3nd Quarter and Subsequent Operational Highlights

  • Delta 9 renewed its normal course issuer bid (NCIB). Under the NCIB, the Company can purchase: (i) up to an aggregate of 6,827,032 common shares of the public float; and (ii) up to an aggregate of $1,180,000 principal amount of 8.5% unsecured convertible debentures of the Company. The Company sought approval of the NCIB because it believes that, from time to time, the market price of the Common Shares and Debentures may not fully reflect the value of the Common Shares and Debentures. The Company believes that, in such circumstances, the purchase of Common Shares and Debentures represents an accretive use of capital.

 

  • Delta 9 placed 7th on the 2021 Globe and Mail’s Report on Business ranking of Canada’s Top Growing Companies. Delta 9 Cannabis earned its spot with a three-year revenue growth rate of 5,413% with revenues growing from under $1 million in 2017 to $52 million in 2020. The editorial ranking aims to celebrate entrepreneurial achievement in Canada by identifying and amplifying the success of growth-minded, independent businesses in Canada.

 

  • Delta 9 opened four cannabis retail stores this quarter with two in Edmonton, Alberta, and two in Manitoba, (Winnipeg and Selkirk). Delta 9 now has 16 operating cannabis retail stores with eleven in Manitoba, four in Alberta and one in Saskatchewan. Delta 9 continues to make progress on its goal of having 20 stores open in the near term. Delta 9 will accomplish this through select strategic acquisition targets and a focus on retail store build-outs at convenient and high traffic shopping locations. This growth strategy has been a successful part of the Company’s overall vertical integration strategy.

 

  • Delta 9 entered into a partnership with Cultivatd to compliment the Company’s B2B sales team by helping to target Grow Pod sales opportunities in Canada and the United States. Cultivatd is an indoor farming technology broker that connects people and businesses with the proper vertical farming technology for their needs. Cultivatd currently has $200 million of quotes in the pipeline with prospective clients in Canada, the United States and Australia.
