Financial Results

VIVO reported revenues of $2.3 million and a net loss of $9.1 million for the third quarter of 2018, as the Company continues to invest to drive future growth. Non-recurring advertising and promotion expenses incurred in preparation for the launch of the adult-use market on October 17, 2018 and expenses related to the Canna Farms acquisition were a material factor in the increase in net loss.

As at September 30, 2018, the Company had $100 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, total assets of $285 million, total liabilities of $61 million, and 291 million common shares outstanding.
