Organigram is one of the few companies to have distribution of their recreational cannabis in all 10 provinces

Organigram Holdings Inc. is the parent company of Organigram Inc., a leading Canadian licensed producer of premium quality cannabis and extract-based products.

Production Facility

“Where the majority of companies went with large green house expansions, our facility is three levels. We actually do vertical cultivation”, says CEO, Greg Engel.

Organigram’s production facility is located on a 14-acre campus in Moncton, New Brunswick. There, its Phase 4 fully-funded expansion project is underway to increase target production capacity to 113,000 kg/year. Not to mention, they expect construction is to be completed by the end of 2019.

Furthermore, the Phase 4 expansion includes a state-of-the-art mechanical system. Additionally, it has an improved irrigation system which they expect to be one of the most sophisticated in North America.

More on Organigram Holdings

Organigram began as a medical cannabis provider. Today, the company is focusing on producing high-quality, indoor-grown cannabis for patients and adult recreational consumers in Canada. They’re also developing international business partnerships to extend the its global footprint.

“We’ve had four quarters in a row now, positive adjusted EBITDA. And I think that’s a big differentiator for us”, say Engel.

Organigram is focusing on translating operational excellence into strong financial results and return on investment for shareholders.

$GNPX Featured in Publication on Advances in Potential Breast Cancer Treatments

NEW YORK, Sept. 25, 2019 — via NetworkWire — Genprex Inc. (NASDAQ:GNPX) today announces its placement in an editorial published by NetworkNewsWire (“NNW”), a multifaceted financial news and publishing company for private and public entities.

To view the full publication, titled “Gene Therapies with Potential to Conquer Tough-to-Tackle Breast Cancers,” visit: http://nnw.fm/pNKm2

Advances in biotechnology look to deliver promising new treatment options against breast cancer. Breast cancer is one of the most widely prevalent cancers in the world. Accounting for a quarter of all cancers in women worldwide, as well as a number of cases in men, it kills over half a million people every year.“Disruptive” isn’t a term that’s often applied to medicine, where the aim is to avoid disrupting the health of the human body. But technology such as Genprex Inc.’s (NASDAQ:GNPX) Oncoprex(TM) immunogene therapy is disruptive precisely because it could improve doctors’ ability to preserve health. It may also change the course of cancer, as new technology often opens up new possibilities.

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(TM) 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.

$GGBXF Why the Magic Mushroom Story Could be as Big as the Cannabis Boom

Palm Beach, FL – September 24, 2019 – As cannabis legalization spreads, another drug may soon follow in its footsteps — psilocybin mushrooms.  In fact, analysts argue mushrooms may hold untapped medical properties that could be used to help treat depression and addiction.  Better, the U.S. FDA already granted “breakthrough status” to COMPASS Pathways’ psilocybin-assisted therapy in October 2018, which allows the FDA assist in the development of a promising drug to treat serious illnesses.  In addition, researchers at New York University found psilocybin mushrooms caused a “rapid and sustained” reduction in anxiety and depression in patients with cancer, as reported by the Financial Post.  Psychiatrists at Johns Hopkins University even found that mushrooms can help with smoking cessation, and another study found it can assist with alcohol dependence.  That’s all opening a wide range of opportunity for companies that have already established launching cannabis products including The Yield Growth Corp. (OTCQB:BOSQF) (CSE:BOSS),  Charlotte’s Web Holdings Inc. (OTCQX:CWBHF) (CSE:CWEB), Green Growth Brands Inc. (OTCQB:GGBXF) (CSE:GGB), GW Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:GWPH), and Tilray Inc. (NASDAQ:TLRY).

The Yield Growth Corp.(CSE:BOSS) (OTCQB:BOSQF) BREAKING NEWS:The Yield Growth Corp. just announced that its newly created subsidiary Flourish Mushroom Labs Inc. entered into an agreement on September 20, 2019 to purchase nine recipes which include edible mushrooms as a key ingredient.  The acquisition is from a consortium of creators of the formulas, including a chemical engineer, a holistic health coach and food chemist, and a chef, and is expected to be completed within 30 days. The formulas and know-how to be acquired relate to formulations that may be used to create ready to eat packaged food products or packaged food products that may be mixed with mushroom varietals of the consumer’s choice. The formulations are Chai latte green tea flavor mushroom tea, Lemon grass, lemon and hibiscus lemon mushroom tea, Veggie mix for mushroom soup, Miso dehydrated seaweed mix for mushroom soup, Hot cocoa, coconut sugar and vanilla flavored mushroom elixir, Pumpkin spice mushroom elixir, White chocolate truffle relaxing formula, Dark chocolate truffle energy formula, and Wild mushroom bliss ball with coco and dried fruits.

Yield Growth also announced its entry into the edible mushroom market with an agreement to acquire 30% of Absolem Health Corp., owner of One Up Pure Energy, which has edible mushroom snacks registered with Health Canada.  Now Yield has set up Flourish Mushroom Labs as a wholly owned subsidiary and this library of 9 mushroom formulas is its first announced acquisition.  “These healthy edible mushroom formulations have the potential to be made with psilocybin mushrooms in jurisdictions where magic mushrooms are legal,” says Yield Growth CEO Penny Green, “We are pleased to add mushroom formulas to our extensive catalogue of formulas to our cannabis formulas which are at various stages of commercialization.”

$POAI Transforming Cancer-Treatment Outcomes via Proprietary Database

Predictive Oncology (NASDAQ: POAI) is taking a unique approach to cancer treatment by utilizing its proprietary database of cancer cases using the proven power of artificial intelligence (“AI”). A recent article discussing the company reads, “The company works alongside pharmaceutical, diagnostic and biotechnology industry players to develop highly customizable assessment methods that can be applied to both individualize current therapies and develop the next generation of precision therapies, leading to better outcomes for patients. The company recently announced a corporate name change from Precision Therapeutics to Predictive Oncology Inc., which reflects its mission and strategic emphasis. . . . Predictive Oncology seeks to revolutionize the way cancer is treated for both the patients of today and those of tomorrow. The company is well positioned to do exactly that as a result of two key assets: its ability to grow patients’ own tumors in the laboratory and test the tumors’ responses to chemotherapy, together with its existing database of outcome data cataloguing more than 150,000 tumors and their specific responses to those chemotherapies.”

To view the full article, visit: http://nnw.fm/ZCk18

About Predictive Oncology Inc.

Predictive Oncology (formerly Precision Therapeutics Inc.) operates through its three business units: Helomics, TumorGenesis and Skyline Medical. Helomics applies artificial intelligence to rich data gathered from patient tumors to both personalize cancer therapies for patients and drive the development of new targeted therapies in collaborations with pharmaceutical companies. Helomics’ CLIA-certified lab provides clinical testing that assists oncologists in individualizing patient-treatment decisions by providing an evidence-based road map for therapy. In addition to its proprietary precision-oncology platform, Helomics offers boutique CRO services that leverage its TruTumor, patient-derived tumor models coupled to a wide range of multi-omics assays (genomics, proteomics and biochemical), and an AI-powered proprietary bioinformatics platform (D-CHIP) to provide a tailored solution to its clients’ specific needs. Predictive Oncology’s TumorGenesis subsidiary is developing a new rapid approach to growing tumors in the laboratory, which essentially “fools” cancer cells into thinking they are still growing inside a patient. Its proprietary Oncology Discovery Technology Platform kits will assist researchers and clinicians to identify which cancer cells bind to specific biomarkers. Once the biomarkers are identified, they can be used in TumorGenesis’ Oncology Capture Technology Platforms, which isolate and help categorize an individual patient’s heterogeneous tumor samples to enable the development of patient-specific treatment options. Helomics and TumorGenesis are focused on ovarian cancer. Predictive Oncology’s Skyline Medical division markets its patented and FDA-cleared STREAMWAY System, which automates the collection, measurement and disposal of waste fluid, including blood, irrigation fluid and others, within a medical facility, through both domestic and international divisions. The company has achieved sales in five of the seven continents through both direct sales and distributor partners. For more information, visit the company’s website at www.Predictive-Oncology.com.

$SRAX Discusses BIGtoken in Exclusive NetworkNewsWire Audio Interview

NEW YORK, Sept. 19, 2019  — via NetworkNewsAudio – SRAX Inc. (NASDAQ: SRAX) today announces the broadcast of its exclusive audio interview with NetworkNewsAudio (NNA), a NetworkNewsWire (NNW) Solution that delivers clients unparalleled visibility, recognition and brand awareness in the investment community.

The interview can be heard at http://nnw.fm/o6dkX

SRAX CEO and Founder Christopher Miglino joins NNW’s Stuart Smith for a review of the company’s impressive growth pattern during the past year and its goals for the future.

SRAX is a digital marketing and consumer data management technology company. Its technology unlocks data to reveal brands’ core consumers and their characteristics across marketing channels. The company’s consumer data management and distribution system, BIGtoken, continues to grow and currently has 16 million users.

“Our goal is to build the most valuable opted-in data set in the world. We’ll have more consumers that have opted in to let us sell access to their data than any other company and that’s invaluable,” says Miglino.

SRAX’s tools deliver a digital competitive advantage for brands in the CPG, automotive, investor relations, luxury, and lifestyle verticals by integrating all aspects of the advertising experience, including verified consumer participation, into one platform.

Miglino said consumers are beginning to realize their data has true value and are taking back their data. Privacy concerns are rippling throughout Europe and the U.S., with several countries and states passing laws that regulate or control the amount of opt in and opt out a website publisher – such as Facebook – can impose on users.

SRAX provides a solution to privacy issues through BIGtoken, which allows users to opt in and let companies access their data in exchange for compensation. SRAX has partnered with several high-profile nonprofit associations to provide BIGtoken users the ability to donate their earnings. Several well-known consumer packed good brands have signed up to utilize BIGtoken to reward users for access to data as well.

The company’s SRAX Investor Relations program, currently licensed for $3,000 a month to about 20 publicly traded companies, provides data about the company’s investors and shareholders, and provides tools to manage those relationships across a wide spectrum of platforms. SRAX is working toward reaching a goal of 100 publicly traded company partners by the end of 2019.

$CNPOF $RIV.V Tech Disruption Driving the Cannabis Sector

Point Roberts, WA and Delta, BC – September 18, 2019 Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resource covering tech and cannabis stocks releases a snapshot reporting on some of the key technology developments impacting the cannabis sector and how companies are deploying “disruptive” technologies to ensure early mover advantage.

Since Federal legalization in Canada, and with new markets opening up every day in either the US or abroad the cannabis industry has become a magnet for game changing technology growth-whether looking at production, extraction, online sales platforms, blockchain technology, packaging and so on, the list is endless.

Looking at the payment sector, Global Payout Inc. (OTC: GOHE), through its wholly owned subsidiary MTrac Tech Corporation, has now reached a point where it is effectively processing tens of millions of dollars in daily transaction volume across its growing base of clients in the multibillion-dollar cannabis industry.

As demonstrated in the Company’s recent Q2 disclosure detailing Company financials, MTrac’s growth trajectory has remained positive and has continued to gain significant traction throughout the year. This growth can be attributed to the successful strengthening of their foothold and market reach in what has become one of the most dynamic industries in today’s economy. This feat has been accomplished in part through MTrac’s success in securing several strategic service agreements with some of the largest companies in the industry today.

This follows on the heels of the launch of MTrac’s massive update to its blockchain powered payment platform, which includes the addition of new banking partners to provide a suite of enhancements to improve the merchant experience through added stability, reliability and system integrity.

Many companies have attempted to solve the cash problem in cannabis and they most certainly have all come to realize the complexities of navigating the financial and regulatory challenges in this constantly evolving industry. The Schedule 1 classification persists as the main deterrent to financial institutions providing its services to cannabis merchants.

“We continue to attract key banking partners with our compliant and seamless solution as an industry leader in this innovative financial technology space,” said Mr. Kevin Curtis, MTrac Chief Strategy Officer. “These strategic updates to the MTrac platform are being done in order to further stabilize the platform and to continue serving our clients in this next growth phase we are embarking upon. The MTrac 3.0 launch is the culmination of key partnerships, significant market share, and our team’s focus on compliance, service, and stability.”

“As these new bank networks are being injected, MTrac is also downsizing the equipment needed to process transactions on the merchant side, which will reduce hardware costs and deployment time to the merchant to enable faster adoption, onboarding, and an improved checkout process for the customer,” said David Flores, EVP. “These updates will also provide unlimited processing bandwidth and more secure transactions with EMV chip and pin debit features, which will allow for overall enhanced merchant and consumer experience.”

The company has recently signed a new account application with an anticipated 34 locations and has applications coming in weekly for the services offered through MTrac.

In addition to their expanding market reach, the Company is also fully engaged with key legislative partners in different states to help push for the adoption of their system as a means of providing merchants within these states with a viable and compliant payment processing alternative to cash as they remain focused on delivering “The Key to Cashless®” to as much of this diverse and expanding industry as possible.

Terra Tech Corp. (OTC: TRTC), has focussed on integrating the best of the natural world with technology to create sustainable solutions for medical cannabis production, extraction and distribution, plant science research and development, food production and Closed Environment Agriculture (CEA).

Through its Blüm Santa Ana dispensary, Terra Tech has been a major supplier of medical and adult-use cannabis to Santa Ana and the surrounding cities, such as Irvine, Laguna Beach and Newport Beach. All of the aforementioned cities suffer from a scarcity of existing cannabis dispensaries. The launch of their premier delivery service has enabled the Company to expand distribution of its best-in-class cannabis products to reach an even greater number of patients and customers.

Terra Tech purchased multiple delivery vans and hired sales associates to deliver products within Orange County, CA, starting with a 20-mile radius out of the Company’s Blüm Santa Ana store.

The company recently entered into an agreement to sell 100% of the assets of its Blüm Reno dispensary located at 1085 S Virginia St Suite A, Reno, NV 89502, including the building where the dispensary is located, for a purchase price of $15,000,000.

Terra Tech’s Blüm Reno dispensary has been operational since January 2017 and provides cannabis products to the local medical and adult-use markets, including the Company’s proprietary IVXX brand of premium medical cannabis, flowers, shatters, waxes and oils, among other high-quality cannabis products from a range of reputable providers of superior grade medical cannabis.

Derek Peterson, CEO of Terra Tech, commented, ”Selling the cannabis retail license for our Blüm Reno dispensary is another key milestone in our restructuring plan, a strategy that has been implemented to leverage our balance sheet to fuel growth, as opposed to approaching the capital markets more often than is necessary. Our Blüm dispensary in Reno has substantially increased in value since its opening and selling its assets allows the Company to strategically monetize this asset. To move forward with our restructuring strategy, we plan to redeploy the additional capital generated by this sale toward more productive assets in California in areas such as infrastructure and sales and marketing.”

One company that has been keeping pace with the advanced technology trends coming to the industry is Canopy Rivers Inc. (TSX: RIV.TO) (OTC: CNPOF), a venture capital firm specializing in cannabis. The company recently announced that its portfolio company, TerrAscend Corp. has entered into a distribution agreement with Syqe Medical, Ltd., an Israel-based pharma-tech company, to launch Syqe’s flagship product, The Syqe Inhaler, in Canada.

The Syqe Inhaler is the world’s first metered-dose medical cannabis inhaler and will provide Canadians with an alternative to dried flower medical cannabis. Metered dosing allows patients and healthcare providers to predictably, precisely and consistently deliver treatment at pharmaceutical standards. Syqe’s technology is supported by completed controlled clinical trials, a milestone only a limited number of companies have achieved, with patients suffering from chronic pain. The Syqe treatment provides rapid pain relief while reducing psychoactive effects, allowing patients to resume normal daily activities. The technology was launched in the Israeli market in June 2019.

“We continue to be thrilled with the steps TerrAscend is taking to build an industry-leading business that spans retail, manufacturing, distribution, biotechnology, and now health tech,” said Narbe Alexandrian, President and CEO of Canopy Rivers. “We believe that TerrAscend is uniquely positioned in the Canadian market to deliver on the consumer demand for innovative and rigorously tested products like the Syqe device.”

Canopy Rivers is not only looking at production and consumption technology but also data analytics which is becoming more essential to the industry. One of their investments, Headset, the leading provider of data and analytics to the cannabis industry, recently announced it is launching its competitive intelligence tool, Headset Insights in Canada. Recreational cannabis has been legal country-wide in Canada since October 2018 and the young and growing market is still developing. This will be Canada’s first retail-derived cannabis market read based on aggregated Point of Sale data at the receipt-level.

“This announcement is further proof that Headset will continue to dominate the cannabis data and analytics vertical – first in the United States and now in Canada,” said Mr. Alexandrian. “This announcement validates our belief that in the cannabis industry, like other mature industries, data will be king.”

SinglePoint Inc. (OTCQB: SING) has also been looking at disruptive technology coming to the market with their recent shareholder update on the success of Jacksam/Convectium. As a lead investor in Jacksam before the company went public, SinglePoint was able to secure sizeable interest in the company. Jacksam has now gone public and the value of the company has increased significantly and both parties foresee a very bright future ahead.

“To date, Jacksam has been a tremendous investment for SinglePoint. This is exactly what we look for when investing or acquiring businesses. The company was successful in its original vision and has increased the opportunity for major scalability by opening up the platform. They are now able to work with some of the biggest companies in the space such a CCELL. We are excited to be a part of this high growth company and believe it will only continue its exponential growth,” commented Wil Ralston, President of SinglePoint.

Convectium is the inventor of the world’s first cannabis oil filling system and proprietary packaging systems. This is a major advancement at a time when about 80% of all concentrate products (vapes and pods) are filled manually. By hand, oil cartridge fills are completed at a paltry 75 per hour. Convectium’s 710 Shark system can exceed that in less than a minute on its way to produce between 6,000-12,000 in an hour.

Commenting on their product capabilities, Jacksam/Convectium CEO, Mark Adams stated: “Up until now companies using CCell cartridges couldn’t access our state-of-the-art automation equipment which delivers up to 287% more efficiency and 80% labor savings. Our new ‘open system’ approach catapults our market potential to another level by enabling large-scale CBD or THC concentrate companies to increase output, reduce risks, costs and waste, and beat the competition. These unique machines enable concentrate companies to automate the ‘fill and cap bottleneck’ and cement Convectium’s position as the only true scalable system in the business.”

While production and cultivation remain essential to the growth and stability of the cannabis market, we are starting to see how much of an impact even one of these emerging technologies can have on the ancillary sectors and how some early adopters have been able to achieve massive competitive advantages.

$PBIO Discusses Major Advancements Its PCT, BaroFold, and BaroShear K45 Platforms

Phoenix, Arizona–(September 18, 2019) – The Stock Day Podcast recently welcomed Mr. Richard T. Schumacher, President and CEO of Pressure BioSciences, Inc. (OTCQB: PBIO) (“the Company”), to discuss PBIO on Stock Day with its host Mr. Everett Jolley. PBIO is a leader in the development and sale of innovative, broadly enabling, pressure-based solutions for the worldwide life sciences industry.

Mr. Jolly began the interview by welcoming Mr. Schumacher back to the Stock Day Podcast He noted that the Company is continuing to show impressive growth while announcing a number of very impressive achievements.

Mr. Jolly commented: “It’s been about six weeks since you’ve been on the show. During that time there have been several exciting developments at Pressure BioSciences. Please tell us about PBIO and your recent successes.”

Mr. Schumacher explained that the Company has gone through substantial changes over the last 12 months. “A year ago, PBIO had one revenue-generating division. We now have three, each based on our proprietary PCT, BaroFold, or UST platforms.

Mr. Schumacher continued: “Our PCT platform supports our primary business, which is selling pressure-based instruments and consumables to research laboratories worldwide. Our customers include some of the world’s foremost protein chemists, working in many of the finest academic, government, biotech, and phama laboratories around the globe. These scientists use PCT systems for a number of different protein, RNA, and DNA applications as they search to find new biomarkers of disease, diagnostic tools, druggable targets, and therapeutics.”

Mr. Schumacher then expanded on the Company’s late 2017 acquisition of BaroFold, Inc., which secured the development of their second division, their BaroFold BioPharma Services Division. This business unit uses selective and controllable high-pressure to “disaggregate and re-fold” problem proteins intended to be protein-based drugs but because they are aggregated (clumped together) or miss-folded, they can’t be used as a therapeutic. The BaroShear platform can often convert the problem protein back to its correct native structure, which would allow it to be used as a drug. The Company works with manufacturers of protein drugs (of which there are many around the world) to help them correct their aggregated/miss-folded proteins, with the hope that when such proteins have been “fixed”, they could be used as therapeutics to prevent, control, or cure diseases and disabilities. The Company has eight (8) issued patents in this new revenue-generating division.

The Company’s third revenue-generating division is based on their novel and new Ultra Shear Technology (UST) platform. “UST combines ultra-high pressure with intense shearing forces to produce stable, water-soluble nanoemulsions of oil-like products in water. A great example would be the ability to make CBD Oil disperse into water. We have two patents issued in China and believe they will be issued throughout the world in the coming year or two”, explained Mr. Schumacher.

At this point in the interview, Mr. Jolly decided to dive deeper into the various business units of PBI. He noted that the Company’s PCT platform had been recognized recently by prestigious research centers in China and Australia for its pivotal role in the discovery process of cancer biomarkers, as well as for its potential in clinical diagnostics. “Why is that so exciting?” asked Mr. Jolly.

Mr. Schumacher commented: “The system that was highlighted by researchers in two recent journal articles is the PCT system I spoke of just a few minutes ago. It allows scientists to break open cells in an entirely new, safe, and high-quality way”.

Mr. Schumacher added that the PCT System developed by the Company uses high pressure to extract compounds from the cells (like “squeezing a sponge”), including proteins, DNA, RNA, and lipids. Mr. Schumacher noted this this method was very gentle yet powerful as it allows scientists to “dial in” the exact amount of pressure to break the cell (not too much and not too little). He further explained that most methods on the market today use mechanical means to batter the cells in order to extract these important biomolecules in such a way that the mechanical means might damage the biomolecules during the extraction.

Mr. Schumacher also shared that the PCT platform is currently being utilized by these two prestigious facilities in the area of pathology. Currently, biopsy tissues are fixed in formalin and subsequently embedded in paraffin wax (“FFPE”) for long-term storage. It has been estimated that there are more than 1 billion FFPE tissues in laboratories worldwide. The amount of valuable information that could be retrieved from FFPE tissues is enormous. The issue has been developing a method to extract biomolecules – such as proteins – from chemically-fixed and wax embedded FFPE tissues. With the advanced technology provided by the Company’s PCT platform, these two prestigious research facilities have been successful in extracting viable proteins from FFPE tissues, followed by successful analysis of the samples by mass spectrometry.

Mr. Schumacher expanded on this topic: “This means we have a method that scientists can use to extract valuable information on disease detection, progression, control, prevention, and eradication from an almost unlimited supply of biopsy samples.”

Switching topics from the Company’s PCT platform to its new and exciting UST platform, Mr. Jolly noted that the Company recently announced the receipt of two purchase orders for PBI’s revolutionary BaroShear K45 system and asked about the Company’s progress on further potential sales.

Mr. Schumacher explained that the Company currently has patents issued (in China) and filed (worldwide) on this machine. He also noted that PBI has developed a working prototype, which has been used to generate nanoemulsion scale, water-soluble CBD Oil that has been shown to be very soluble in water, juice, energy drinks, and beer. Thus, it has solved one of the biggest issues in the CBD industry today: getting CBD Oil to truly water-soluble, thus allowing it to disperse into water without using large amounts of chemicals.

Mr. Schumacher stated: “We have data that indicates the nano-scale CBD-containing oil droplets that form from processing with UST are stable, water-soluble, and viable – and that no CBD is lost in the manufacturing process. We believe that there is no system on the market today that can compare to our patented BaroShear K45 nanoemulsification system.

Mr. Schumacher then mentioned that based on the enthusiasm generated by their new BaroShear K45 system, and the calls he has received that evidence strong interest in obtaining the machine, he believes that the Company’s revenue in 2020 will be more than double the expected 2019 revenue.

Mr. Jolly then asked Mr. Schumacher for his insight regarding the Company’s market cap and stock price.

Mr. Schumacher commented: “I run the Company like it is a NASDAQ/NYSE company. We have completely independent audit and compensation committees. Our goal is to up-list PBIO to the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ stock exchange in the coming months”, adding that he continually strives to bring value to the Company’s shareholders.

About Pressure BioSciences, Inc.

Pressure BioSciences, Inc. (PBIO) is a leader in the development and sale of innovative, broadly enabling, pressure-based solutions for the worldwide life sciences industry. Our products are based on the unique properties of both constant (i.e., static) and alternating (i.e., pressure cycling technology, or PCT) hydrostatic pressure. PCT is a patented enabling technology platform that uses alternating cycles of hydrostatic pressure between ambient and ultra-high levels to safely and reproducibly control bio-molecular interactions (e.g., cell lysis, biomolecule extraction). Our primary focus is in the development of PCT-based products for biomarker and target discovery, drug design and development, biotherapeutics characterization and quality control, soil & plant biology, forensics, and counter-bioterror applications. Additionally, major new market opportunities have emerged in the use of our pressure-based technologies in the following areas: (1) the use of our recently acquired, patented technology from BaroFold, Inc. (the “BaroFold” technology) to allow entry into the bio-pharma contract services sector, and (2) the use of our recently-patented, scalable, high-efficiency, pressure-based Ultra Shear Technology (“UST”) platform to (i) create stable nanoemulsions of otherwise immiscible fluids (e.g., CBD Oil and water) and to (ii) prepare higher quality, homogenized, extended shelf-life or room temperature stable low-acid liquid foods that cannot be effectively preserved using existing non-thermal technologies.

$OGI Among Top Companies Disrupting a Massive $23.7 Billion Medical Cannabis Market

Palm Beach, FL – September 17, 2019 — Global demand for cannabis-based consumer products has been increasing at a rapid pace. In fact, the Brightfield Group estimates the U.S. CBD product market alone to be worth over $23.7 billion by 2023, as CBD finds its way into a variety of consumer product categories including  food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and health and wellness.  Analysts at Research and Markets say the global medical cannabis market could be worth up to $44.4 billion by 2024 from just $13.4 billion last year.  In addition, analysts at Statista says U.S. medical retail sales could reach $7.3 billion by 2022, as compared to $4.5 billion sales in 2018. Better, according to a May 2018 survey from Nielsen, analysts found that consumers are quickly embracing CBD products, particularly when it comes to medicinal purposes. In fact, according to the survey, 40% of head and migraine suffers are considering cannabis in addition to 40% of all arthritis pain suffers, and 41% of all back and neck pain sufferers.  As CBD continues to disrupt major industries, it’s creating a wide range of opportunity for companies such as XPhyto Therapeutics Corp. (CSE:XPHY), HEXO Corporation (NYSE:HEXO)(TSX:HEXO), Aphria Inc. (NYSE:APHA) (TSX:APHA), Tilray Inc. (NASDAQ:TLRY), and OrganiGram Holdings Inc. (TSX-V:OGI)(NASDAQ:OGI).

 

XPhyto Therapeutics Corp. (CSE:XPHY) BREAKING NEWS: XPhyto Therapeutics Corp. just announced it has closed both the definitive share purchase agreement with Vektor Pharma TF GmbH and the equipment purchase agreement entered into with an affiliated company of Vektor, both of which were previously announced by the Company on August 26, 2019.  Vektor is a German narcotics manufacturer, importer, and researcher located approximately 170 kilometers west of Munich. For over a decade, the company and its team have been leaders in the design, testing and manufacture of thin film drug delivery systems, particularly transdermal patches and sub-lingual (oral) strips for the clinical management of pain. Vektor holds a number of valid narcotics licences pursuant to EU GMP certification and other governing regulations: Import Permit for drug dosage forms; Import Permit for cannabis; Manufacturing Permit for clinical samples; Manufacturing Permit for final drug product release; Analytical Permit for chemical and physical testing; Permit to handle narcotic drugs; and a Permit to handle animal tissue. Vektor’s various narcotics licences include authorizations related to conventional and cannabis-related prescription medications, including but not limited to: Buprenorphine, cannabis, Dronabinol, Fentanyl, Hydromorphone, Oxycodone, and THC. “The Vektor transaction will accelerate XPhyto’s medicinal cannabis import into Germany and its drug delivery expertise, both of which are a critical part of our near-term revenue generation strategy,” said Hugh Rogers, CEO of XPhyto. “Further, with vape-based delivery systems now associated with significant potential health risks, XPhyto is extremely pleased to combine assets and expertise with Vektor, a specialist in thin film drug delivery systems. XPhyto is well positioned to capitalize on the next generation of cannabis investment opportunities, primarily clinical validation of safe and effective medicine and emerging European markets.”

Other cannabis-related developments from around the markets include:

 

HEXO Corporation (NYSE:HEXO)(TSX:HEXO) just announced that its dried flower cannabis products are now available to Ontario consumers, after finalizing terms with the Ontario Cannabis Store (OCS).  HEXO now adds nine of its dried flower offerings in both 3.5g and 15g SKUs to the OCS, including the Company’s award-winning Helios dried flower, which was named Best Sativa at the O’Cannabiz 2019 Industry Awards.  “We are thrilled to increase our offering at the OCS,” said HEXO Corp CEO and co-founder, Sebastien St-Louis. “Apart from being our nation’s most populous province with the highest demand for cannabis products, the Ontario marketplace is among the most competitive—and we are rolling out high quality products to which we believe Ontario consumers will strongly gravitate.”

Aphria Inc. (NYSE:APHA)(TSX:APHA) just posted its results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended May 31, 2019. “It’s a new day at Aphria. Our team’s solid execution across key areas of our business resulted in strong adult-use revenue growth and a profitable fourth quarter,” stated Irwin D. Simon. “Over the last six months, our organization identified immediate priorities to help generate substantial progress near-term and long-term. We built upon existing business fundamentals and capabilities, streamlined processes, strengthened governance, and focused on building brand awareness. Together, we have nurtured an entrepreneurial culture of accountability through data-driven decision-making for value creation in the global medical and adult-use cannabis industry.  Today’s Aphria has a stronger foundation for long-term growth and success.”  The company posted net revenue of $128.6 million in the fourth quarter, an increase of 75% from prior quarter and 969% from prior year; revenue for adult-use cannabis of $18.5 million in the fourth quarter, up 158% from prior quarter; and net income of $15.8 million and adjusted EBITDA of $0.2 million in the fourth quarter.

FOUR20 provides adult-use cannabis consumers with a premium retail experience focused on high quality product selection, education and community. FOUR20 currently operates six licensed retail locations and has 16 additional high traffic locations secured in desirable locations in Alberta, including Canmore, Calgaryand Edmonton. Tilray and High Park will leverage FOUR20’s retail expertise and brand and market knowledge to expand into other Canadian provincial markets where Licensed Producer retail ownership will be permitted in the future. “FOUR20 offers a premium retail experience for the mainstream cannabis consumer and builds on our broader retail strategy, which includes several minority investments in other leading cannabis retailers,” says Tilray Chief Corporate Development Officer Andrew Pucher. “With FOUR20, we will elevate the retail experience for consumers by offering the best quality-tested products while preparing for the next wave of legalized product launches taking place by year’s end.”

OrganiGram Holdings Inc. (TSX-V:OGI)(NASDAQ:OGI) just announced it entered into an advance payment and purchase agreement with 703454 N.B. Inc.

$LXRP Human CBD Study Results Published in Peer Reviewed Clinical Journal

KELOWNA, BRITISH COLUMBIA / September 17, 2019 / Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (OTCQX:LXRP)(CSE:LXX) (the “Company” or “Lexaria”), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, is pleased to announce that final study results of the 2018 human clinical study evaluating CBD delivery and effectiveness using its patented DehydraTECHTM powered TurboCBD™ capsules have been published in the peer reviewed medical journal, “Advances in Therapy”. Advances in Therapy focuses on clinical medicine and pharmaceutical research and has been published continually since 1984.

Key findings highlighted in the publication were as follows:

  • CBD in-plasma levels with the TurboCBD&trade; 90 mg dose were significantly higher than with the generic 90 mg dose at both 90 and 120 min (p < 0.05);
  • Only the TurboCBD&trade; 90 mg dose was elevated (i.e., greater than placebo) at 30 min (p < 0.05) and remained elevated (i.e., greater than placebo) at 4 h (p < 0.01);
  • Mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) in a subgroup analysis was significantly decreased with only the TurboCBD&trade; 90 mg dose relative to baseline (p < 0.05); and
  • Cerebral perfusion analysed by an index of conductance in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) in this subgroup was significantly higher with only the TurboCBD&trade; 90 mg dose relative to baseline (p < 0.001).

The study was conducted and well tolerated in 12 healthy young male athletes and the investigators concluded that further studies are warranted, noting in particular that &ldquo;further acute and chronic dosing investigations in older and cerebrovascular-compromised patients may shed light on the vascular and clinical impacts of increased CBD bioavailability.&rdquo;

Lexaria&rsquo;s recent receipt of two granted patents for &ldquo;treating certain conditions including, but not limited to heart disease, neurological diseases such as Alzheimer&rsquo;s, Parkinson&rsquo;s, schizophrenia&rdquo; and others is timely considering the demonstrated effectiveness of DehydraTECH technology in increasing cerebral blood flow, and thus perhaps an increased effectiveness at delivering certain drugs to the brain.

Finally, it is worth noting that the publication also references a separate recent study published by other investigators who evaluated a comparable CBD dose with bioabsorption findings representative of the cannabinoid edibles industry sector in general. The differences in blood concentration between the TurboCBD 90 mg dose and the competitor&rsquo;s 100 mg dose are shown in the graph above, where time to maximum plasma CBD concentration with the competitive formulation required ~4 hours whereas it was evidenced with the TurboCBD&trade; 90 mg dose within 90-120 min. The rate of bioabsorption of the CBD with the competitive 100 mg formulation was virtually nondetectable within 30 minutes of administration.

The peer-reviewed study is available at https://rdcu.be/bQZZi and https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31512143

We are fortunate to have a seasoned financial professional like Dan join us at this most important time, to lead this financial transformation.”

Mr. Schumacher continued: “I will be transferring many responsibilities to Dan that have been on my plate as interim CFO.  This welcomed transition will allow me to focus time on multiple opportunities that we believe offer great potential for commercial growth and increased financial security for PBI, including strategic partnerships, collaborations, acquisitions, and customer adoption/revenue acceleration programs.

$INMB to Speak on Company’s Cancer Treatments at Targeting Innate Immunity Congress

La Jolla, CA., Sept. 17, 2019 — INmune Bio, Inc. (NASDAQ: INMB), an immunology company focused on developing treatments that harness the patient’s innate immune system to fight disease, today announced that RJ Tesi, M.D., Co-Founder and CEO, and Mark Lowdell, Ph.D., Co-Founder and Chief Scientific Officer, will present at the first ever Targeting Innate Immunity Congress, taking place in the biotech hub of Cambridge, Mass. from Sept. 23 through 25.

The conference is an opportunity for INmune Bio to showcase its two leading innate compounds in the hopes of improving the treatment of cancer to industry leaders, experts, academic researchers and clinicians in the field of innate immunity. In addition to presenting at the conference, Dr. Tesi and Dr. Lowdell will be instructing a course on the role of the tumor microenvironment (TME) in immunosuppression.

“This panel will bring together other experts from industry and academia to explore the role of the innate immune system in the TME and in cancer drug development,” said Dr. Tesi.

In addition to speaking at the Targeting Innate Immunity Congress this month, Dr. Tesi will also take part in a speaking engagement at the second annual MarketsandMarkets Next Gen Immuno-Oncology Congress on Sept. 19 in Philadelphia.

Below is a schedule of upcoming presentations:

MarketsandMarkets Next Gen Immuno-Oncology Congress
Thursday, September 19 at 11:40 a.m.
“Reversing Trastuzumab Resistance in HER2+ Breast Cancer”
Dr. Tesi will discuss Mucin 4 (MUC4) protein and how it predicts trastuzumab resistance in HER2+ breast cancer, the role of soluble tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in MUC4 expression and how INmune Bio’s drug candidate, INB03 works in combination with trastuzumab to reverse resistance in MUC4/HER+ breast cancer.

Targeting Innate Immunity Congress
Monday, September 24 at 3:30 – 6:00 p.m.
Short Course: “Understanding and Modulating Tumor Microenvironment for Immunotherapy”
Dr. Tesi and Dr. Lowdell will instruct an interactive short course on the role of the tumor microenvironment (TME) in immunosuppression. They will discuss strategies to change the immunosuppressive nature of the TME to one that supports immune responses and enhances the impact of tumor immunotherapy. Those who attend will walk away with an understanding of the following:

  • Role of the TME in immunosuppression
  • Checkpoint inhibitor optimization
  • Targeting of regulatory cells
  • Reprogramming of immunosuppressive cells
  • Modulation of chemokines and cytokines in the TME
  • Modification of tumor-reactive lymphocytes to evade the TME

Wednesday, September 25 at 11:40 a.m.
“Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cell (MDSC): The Queen Bee of the Tumor Microenvironment (TME)”
As part of the “Modulating Macrophages in the Tumor Microenvironment” panel, Dr. Tesi will discuss targeting myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) as an efficient way to reverse tumor microenvironment (TME) immunobiology. His discussion will address the complexity of TME and how it contributes to failure of therapy, as well as understanding how targeting soluble tumor necrosis factor (TNF) offers a solution to the resistance to therapy when part of combination therapy. Dr. Tesi will also discuss the results of the Phase I trial for INmune Bio’s drug candidate, INB03 in patients with advanced cancer.

Wednesday, September 25 at 1:45 p.m.
“What do Tumor Cells do to NK Cells? – Harnessing the Tumor-NK Interaction for Clinical Benefit”
Dr. Lowdell will participate in the “Advancing Innate Cell Therapies to the Clinic” portion of the conference to discuss how relapsed cancer cells evade natural killer (NK) cells, and how priming NK cells could effectively kill these cancer cells. Dr. Lowdell will also discuss INmune Bio’s INKmune™ drug candidate.

About INmune Bio, Inc.
INmune Bio, Inc. is a publicly traded (NASDAQ: INMB) clinical-stage biotechnology company developing therapies targeting the innate immune system to fight disease. INmune Bio is developing three product platforms: two products that reengineer the patient’s innate immune system’s response to cancer and one product to treat neuroinflammation that is currently focused on Alzheimer’s disease. INKmune is a natural killer (NK) cell therapeutic that primes the patient’s NK cells to attack minimal residual disease, the remaining cancer cells that are difficult to detect, which often cause relapse. INB03 inhibits myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC), which often cause resistance to immunotherapy, such as anti-PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors. XPro1595 targets neuroinflammation, which causes microglial activation and neuronal cell death. INmune Bio’s product platforms utilize a precision medicine approach for the treatment of a wide variety of hematologic malignancies, solid tumors and chronic inflammation.
