All figures are in Canadian dollars ($) unless otherwise specified

TORONTO and RIONEGRO, Colombia, Nov. 25, 2019 /CNW/ – PharmaCielo Ltd. (“PharmaCielo” or the “Company“) (TSXV: PCLO, OTC: PHCEF), the Canadian parent of Colombia’s premier cultivator and producer of medicinal-grade cannabis oil, PharmaCielo Colombia Holdings S.A.S., today announced financial results for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019.

“As we approach the end of 2019, our team is on track to deliver on the key objectives outlined for shareholders at the time of our public listing in January, positioning PharmaCielo for a strong close to the year and solid growth in 2020,” said David Attard, Chief Executive Officer of PharmaCielo Ltd. “Our focus in Q4 and through 2020 will be on a continued ramp up of our processing facilities and on generating  revenue at commercial scale both through the expansion of global sales relationships, and the signing of commercial supply agreements in jurisdictions where we are present today. While it has taken several years to bring our infrastructure and team to this point, I would challenge anybody watching the cannabis space today to identify another company with the capability to consistently produce high quality medicinal-grade cannabis extracts at an immediate capacity of 265 tonnes of dried flower per year, and an all-in cost of $0.04 per grami. Today, we are truly ready to embark on our journey to becoming the world’s preferred provider of naturally grown, medicinal-grade cannabis extracts & wellness-related formulations.”

Mr. Attard continued, “With many global producers facing oversupply and intransigent per-gram production costs, we see the PharmaCielo model as the future of cannabis. There is substantial operating leverage embedded in this business as start-up expenses begin to roll off. This is a business that can get cash flow positive and generate meaningful profitability as it scales. We are excited to get working with our global customers at scale and to show our shareholders the financial power of the platform we have built as we progress through 2020.”

Discussion of Operations 

The Company’s net loss totaled $3.8 million and $22.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively (compared to $9.6 million and $23.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively), with a basic loss per share of $0.04 and $0.23 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively versus a basic loss per share of $0.12 and $0.30 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.

This net loss was primarily due to higher professional fees of $1.9 million and $3.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively (compared to $(22,251) and $1.8 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively), higher salaries and wages of $1.0 million and $2.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively (compared to $218,094 and $595,023 in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively), and higher agricultural pre-operational costs of $121,491 and $2.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively (compared to $617,926 and $1.5 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively). The net loss was partially offset by an unrealized gain in fair value of biological assets of $2.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 (compared to $Nil in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018), and share-based expense of $844,168 and $7.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively (compared to $8.0 million and $16.5 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively).
