MONCTON, New Brunswick–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Organigram Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: OGI) (TSX: OGI), the parent company of Organigram Inc. (the “Company” or “Organigram”), a leading licensed producer of cannabis, is pleased to announce that effective today Paolo De Luca, the Company’s current Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) has been appointed Chief Strategy Officer and Derrick West, currently on the Company’s Board of Directors, is joining the Company as its CFO.

“In this highly dynamic and growing industry, we are strengthening the skill and scope of our leadership team,” said Greg Engel, Chief Executive Officer. “I am thrilled to have Paolo take on the role of Chief Strategy Officer. He has been intimately involved in our strategy development since he joined Organigram and has an excellent track record of rapidly and profitably scaling the Company through substantial growth. This dedicated role will allow him to resolutely focus on the ongoing evolution and execution of strategy critical to our continued success. At the same time, our leadership team is benefiting from the appointment of Derrick West, an experienced finance and accounting professional with strong knowledge of Organigram and the industry after serving on the Board of Directors, including as Chair of the Audit Committee, over the last two years.”

Mr. De Luca has served as the Company’s CFO since December 2017.

Prior to joining Organigram, he held senior diversified roles in both public and private international companies including Potash Ridge, C.A.

During his tenure as Organigram’s CFO, Mr. De Luca collectively oversaw more than a quarter of a billion dollars in capital raises including equity capital, convertible debt and traditional bank debt financing and saw the company successfully migrate to the Toronto Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ Global Select Exchange. In this new role, he will be responsible for establishing and reviewing key strategic priorities and translating these into a comprehensive execution plan working with the Chief Executive Officer and the Board of Directors. This will include reviewing market trends, market size and outlook as well as our competitive positioning to identify profitable growth opportunities. The Investor Relations and Corporate Development functions will continue to report to Mr. De Luca.

Mr. West served as Chair of the Audit Committee of Organigram’s Board of Directors from December 2017 to February 2020 and also more recently, as a member of the Investment Committee.
