Denver, Colorado--(Newsfile Corp. - June 6, 2024) - CBD of Denver, Inc. (OTC Pink: CBDD) today announced strong April revenue of approximately $490,000.00 USD, with approximately $420,000.00 USD coming from Luxora and approximately $70,000.00 USD coming from Libra 9. May revenue continues with approximately $359,500.00 USD from Luxora.
The company has decided to unwind the acquisition of Libra 9 GmbH. In early 2023, CBD of Denver Inc. had moved forward with the acquisition of Libra 9 GmbH based on the reported trailing 12-month revenue of $2.143 million as well as other one-off revenue streams and a structured earnout period that was extended from four years to five years. This acquisition was aligned with CBD of Denver's strategic plans to expand its footprint in the European market with additional high margin businesses that were presented to the company.
However, after months of discussion on the development of Libra 9's products and extensive discussions over recent months, the board of directors has concluded that the revenue goals initially presented to CBD of Denver Inc. at the time of the transaction have not been met. As a result, the board has determined that it is in the best interest of the shareholders and CBD of Denver Inc. to unwind the acquisition agreement with Libra 9 GmbH. The company continues to work with Mr. Reinke on the unwinding of the transaction.
"Despite the initial promise of this acquisition, the evolving market conditions and the financial performance of Libra 9 have led us to reassess this strategic move," said Robert Roever member of the board of CBD of Denver Inc. "We remain committed to our growth strategy but believe that reallocating resources to Luxora Inc. and focusing on more profitable ventures is the prudent path forward for our shareholders and the company."
The decision to unwind this transaction was made after numerous meetings and thorough discussions regarding the future strategic direction of the company. CBD of Denver Inc. is dedicated to maintaining transparency with its shareholders and ensuring that all corporate actions align with its core mission of delivering value and innovation to its shareholders and the company.
Axel Reinke has also resigned as CEO and board member, effective May 9, 2024. Concurrent with the resignation of Mr. Reinke, Jan Schwager, CEO of Luxora, has been appointed as CEO of the Company.
CBD of Denver, through its Luxora division, has experienced significant growth over the past several quarters. Luxora has engaged in numerous discussions with potential strategic partners recently, focusing on legalization in Germany and new opportunities that have arisen. One such prospect has already progressed to signing a Letter of Intent (LOI). The company continues to review new opportunities that it believes will be accretive to the organization.
Luxora Holding AG has entered a term sheet with CheckMyWeed enabling the launch of a new product called CheckMyWeed powered by NIRLAB. CheckMyWeed is a groundbreaking solution that allows users to analyze the cannabinoid content of cannabis flowers with unprecedented precision at the push of a button within seconds. The device, approximately the size of a flashlight, enables contactless and non-destructive analysis of plant material. Results are displayed on Apple or Android smartphones via a separate app, which operates on a monthly subscription basis. The technology can analyze vital information such as THC, CBD, and other secondary cannabinoids during the cultivation process as well as post-harvest. The company believes this product will be a valuable tool for the rollout of Cannabis Clubs and for the broader context of legalization in Germany.
Update on German Law: Currently, a new law is being implemented to amend the existing cannabis regulations, further clarifying the framework under which Cannabis Clubs can operate and apply for their permits. The draft law introduces additional guidelines, allowing individual federal states to decide whether multiple Cannabis Clubs can operate within the same facility. Additionally, Cannabis Clubs are not allowed to assign the same paid employee or the same non-member to more than one type of service.
The law has already gone through the first reading in parliament and the hearing in the health committee. It will now be forwarded to the second and third readings in parliament, which will include the final vote before being passed on to the Bundesrat as the final step. The law is expected to go into effect on July 1, 2024.
The company will be increasing its number of authorized common shares to eight billion shares to support its growth strategy and issue shares to investors. Please review our financials and disclosures, as the company does not have any toxic debt in its capital structure.
Furthermore, the company will participate in an interview on the "Markets Hunter" podcast, scheduled for broadcast in June. This interview will discuss the current changes and future direction of the company. It can be accessed through the Markets Hunter Channel on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@Marketshunter.
