Management Commentary
Mr. Chris Rebentisch remarked, "Our guidance report for the fourth quarter outlines steady growth across our subsidiaries. We expect $18 million in total revenues for our fiscal year, our largest reported revenue to date. We have taken several measures to prepare and position the Company for continued revenue growth throughout 2020. We have a robust cash position, which will be utilized to complete our large infrastructure projects, ramp up cultivation and manufacturing production in California and open new markets with an immediate focus in Arizona. We have established a strong core foundation, re-focused on building valuable brands of consumer packaged goods that are delivering unique consumer experiences and attracted top brands as partners in Nevada. We have set a disciplined growth path to scale up our assets and production capacity in both Nevada and California where we see increased consumer demand for our AMA and Canna Hemp™ premium products."
