So cannabis is not the problem for mental illness in youth, the thing it replaces (alcohol) is!!

Study Shows Alcohol Impacts Cortical Thickness in Young Adults, Cannabis Does Not By
Addison Herron-Wheeler
19 hours ago
A new study refutes what many claim is a danger of legal cannabis, as the findings showed that, while alcohol can have an impact on cortical thickness in younger users, cannabis does not.
The study, titled “The effects of alcohol and cannabis use on the cortical thickness of cognitive control and salience brain networks in emerging adulthood: A co-twin control study,” was published in the journal Biological Psychiatry and conducted by researchers at the University of Minnesota.
These researchers looked at the relationship between alcohol and cannabis exposure when it comes to the brain morphology of young adults. It considered a population-based sample of 436 twins, all 24 years old. By looking at frequency, density, quantity, and level of intoxication from both alcohol and cannabis, the researchers were able to gather data about how cannabis impacts cortical thickness. The cortical consistency was measured using magnetic resonance imaging.
When conducting this research, the team kept in mind that other studies often assume that even casual substance exposure can have an impact on brain structure. However, until now, this was a largely untested theory, and one that does not take other factors like familiar risk into account. By studying the twins who were using alcohol and cannabis, the study was able to directly measure how the two different substances can affect people.
The study explained, “Greater alcohol, but not cannabis, misuse was associated with reduced thickness of prefrontal and frontal medial cortices, as well as [the] temporal lobe, intraparietal sulcus, insula, parietal operculum, precuneus, and parietal medial areas.”

Why These Findings Matter
The reason this research is so important is that intellectual ability is thought to be related to brain structure, including how thick the cerebral cortex is. Thus, it is very important to understand how substances and other impacts can change that thickness. But, in the case of cannabis, it seems the thickness wasn’t changed much.
“No significant associations between cannabis use and thickness were observed,” the study concluded. This study provides novel evidence that alcohol-related reductions in cortical thickness of control/salience brain networks likely represent the effects of alcohol exposure and premorbid characteristics of the genetic predisposition to misuse alcohol. The dual effects of these two alcohol-related causal influences have important and complementary implications regarding public health and prevention efforts to curb youth drinking.”
This is consistent with the findings of other studies, literature reviews, and papers, most of which claim that any damage done is probably from alcohol, not from cannabis. A literature review of many studies posted in JAMA Psychiatry explains that, “Associations between cannabis use and cognitive functioning in cross-sectional studies of adolescents and young adults are small and may be of questionable clinical importance for most individuals. Furthermore, abstinence of longer than 72 hours diminishes cognitive deficits associated with cannabis use. Results indicate that previous studies of cannabis youth may have overstated the magnitude and persistence of cognitive deficits associated with marijuana use.”
As the world opens up for more research about cannabis to be done, no doubt more misconceptions will be dispelled.
No they are not. They are making progress at a good rate compared to their competition. Canopy had a first mover advantage that they seem to be working at losing. This write down of the non existent goodwill was a hangover from the giddy days of silly evaluations. They got off easy compared to aurora and canopy and other big names who have shuttered big expensive greenhouses and written down billions. With that goodwill (referred to by some accountants as goodwill and other nothings) they have the way clear for growth going forward. I think your patience will be rewarded in the next year and on into the future. The CEO spoke correctly when he referred to their second mover advantage. The Canadian rollout has been a nightmare but it is finally starting to get a balance. There are Symbl products on the shelves in stores and Emblem is on line and anyone ordering medicine in the GTA gets same day delivery. The party is about to start.
Don’t get me wrong. Been invested for the last 4 years but @&$k we are in deep s@@t again. How!? Why!?
What are you upset about? Cleaning up the balance sheet? Striking a deal to be the supplier to Canada’s biggest union? Onboarding more patients? Launching new SKUs to a captive audience? I know Canada is dismissed by the US but it IS the size of California and has very few competitors by comparison.
Not sure what will happen from now on. Losing hopes and very upset with management.
The Quarter read is okay, I don't agree with the Projected # when you watched the water tower Event Benic Mentioned better Numbers then 16 Million. Be careful the Next surprise is a 3 for 1 rev. split... Good Day.. still holding!
Ndakota
FUN sorry if it sounded towards your write up. I meant towards the company. Been holding since emblem days and so frustrated with this idiotic management. Why they can’t be honest and transparent. So tire of this bs. Such a great company and potential all this bs. I always appreciate your write ups and read them all the time. They are very helpful and it takes time out of your personal life.
I agree FUN, they are evolving but slower than I had hoped.
I did also like the EBITDA numbers.
They made mor in the last quarter than they did all last year. When looking at the loss don’t have a heart attack. The loss was just a write down of the “goodwill” from the purchase of Emblem and another company. Like Mr Wonderful says “ you can not expect a new company to have a good balance sheet. Show me an increase in revenue quarter over quarter and year over year and I am happy. This makes me happy with my investment choice and Im glad Im in early.

-- Medical cannabis net revenue for Q4 and FY 2020 was $2.7 million and $8.0
million, an increase of 57% and 82%, respectively, over the same periods
in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to improved product
offerings and a continued increase in the Company's total number of
active, registered patients. Management believes that the Company's broad
medical cannabis ecosystem, which includes clinics and scheduled same day
delivery, in addition to cannabis products, provides the company with a
core competitive advantage.
-- Net adult-use cannabis revenue for Q4 and FY 2020 was $1.4 million and
$3.2 million, respectively, compared to $0.6 million and $4.1 million for
the same periods in the prior year, and $0.2 million during the three
months ended September 30, 2020 ("Q3 2020"). The sequential increase was
primarily due to greater product availability, including the launch of
new product formats and SKUs.
-- Net bulk wholesale revenue received from sales to cannabis licensed
producers (each an "LP") for Q4 and FY 2020 was $10.0 million and $29.9
million, an increase of 256% and 783% respectively, over the same periods
in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the sale of flower
harvested at the Port Perry Facility's outdoor cultivation site to other
LPs, and a larger harvest in 2020 relative to the prior year, yielding
31,200 kgs of dried flower.
Adjusted EBITDA for Q4 and FY 2020 was $4.3 million and $9.0 million compared to losses of $0.8 million and $19.6 million, respectively, in the same periods in 2019, and a sequential improvement of $9.4 million over the previous quarter. The substantial difference in quarterly adjusted EBITDA reported over the course of 2020 is primarily due to the seasonality of outdoor cultivation associated sales, which provide a substantial contribution margin. Bulk wholesale revenue fluctuated significantly over the course year, which significantly effects adjusted EBITDA and net income or loss.
Net loss for Q4 and FY 2020 was $217.3 million and $247.2 million, compared to losses of $9.8 million and $39.6 million in the same periods in 2019. In both Q4 and FY 2020, the net loss was primarily due to non-cash items including a fair value changes in biological assets and changes in inventory sold expense of $11.1 million for the quarter and $29.1 million for the full year. Included in the full year amount is a $17 million write-down to net realizable value of saleable inventory to reflect declining wholesale prices.
During Q4 2020, the Company incurred a $22.1 million write-down of intangible assets expense. This includes a $10.6 million write-off associated with the Company's 51% interest in the Flying High Brands joint-venture, as the Company is now primarily developing its brands and products in-house, rather than licensing them from other cannabis companies.
The Company also wrote-down $176.0 million of goodwill associated with the acquisition of Emblem Corp., and $1.4 million of goodwill associated with the acquisition of Canabo Medical Corp.
PRODUCT PORTFOLIO & SALES GROWTH
With the receipt of necessary Health Canada licences received earlier in 2020, the Company began the development and production of a number of new product formats and existing line extensions, with launches commencing in Q4 2020. The launches have resulted in an increase of 31 cannabis products SKUs since October, directly impacting the increased sales in both markets.
-- Sublingual Strips: Kin Slips, the cannabis-infused sublingual strips,
launched in Q4 2020 in the medical and adult-use markets. Kin Slips
offers a fast onset time relative to other non-combustible cannabis
products. Placed under the tongue, the active ingredients enter the
bloodstream through the sublingual gland, delivering a typical onset time
of 10 to 15 minutes (though individual experience may vary).
-- 510 Vape Cartridges: The vapes are inspired by Aleafia Health's signature
cultivars and contain custom-made, unique terpene blends deliver robust
flavours and consistent effects. They contain CO2-extracted distillate
mixed with a custom blend of botanically sourced terpenes. No fillers or
artificial flavours are used in the vapes, which were launched in Q4
2020.

Press Release: Aleafia Health Reports 2020 Year -2-
-- Confectionary Edibles: Subsequent to the reporting period, the Company
released THC soft chews, its first cannabis edible product. Soft chews
are currently the largest edibles category in Canada, as they are in
other international jurisdictions with a more established legal adult-use
cannabis market. The initial launch features two SKUs, each with two five
milligram chews per package. The Company is currently considering a soft
chews line extension to include additional flavours, and a CBD dominant
offering.
-- High Potency CBD Oil: In December, the Company launched a high potency
cannabis oil, CBD 50, with 50 mg per millilitre of CBD oil, provides
greater consumer and patient convenience and has more than twice the
potency of traditional high CBD oils.
-- Exclusive Cultivars: The Company's medical cannabis patients now benefit
from access to highly sought-after strains through its supply agreement
with cannabis brands house Robes Cannabis Inc. (dba as BLLRDR). As part
of this agreement, subsequent to the reporting period, the Company
launched the Afghani Bullrider and Wedding Cake strains each in 3.5 gram
containers.
-- Dried Flower at Scale: Leveraging the greater scale of cultivation
capacity, the Company has also expanded upon its signature strains with
greater product availability, and new larger format SKUs, including a
pre-roll line extension with 12 pre-rolls each of 0.35 grams. Initial
purchase orders for this and other new dried flower SKUs have commenced
shipping to adult-use provincial wholesalers beginning in March.

About Aleafia Health:
My thoughts have not changed.
Aleafia is evolving.
It would be sad if they already sold off all of the outdoor grow for wholesale.
They already said that they are going to use their own outdoor grow for Cannabis 2.0 products.
If so, those command higher profit margins.
They are ramping up everything that they brought out in Q4 and Q1.
Q1 may be able to beat the Q4 revenues.
That we will have to wait for.
They sure guided us correctly on Q4.
Too bad with Q1 nearly over they didn’t indicate much pride.
The best news was strong EBITDA profits.
That's a so, so report FUN and ty for breaking it down for us. I suspect we'll be hanging out in this range for a bit.

Geoffrey, over to you?
Geoffrey Benic
Thank you, Nick and thanks everyone for joining us today. It’s exciting to see how far we have come over the last 2 years. 2019 saw us build out our three production facilities. During 2020, we secured the licenses for these sites, while immediately shifting our focus to the development of differentiated cannabis products and brands. It’s in the fourth quarter that we are just beginning to see the results from this groundwork we have laid over the last 2 years.
Putting things in perspective, our net cannabis revenue has increased from $600,000 in 2018 to $11 million in 2019 to $41 million in 2020.
Capping this off is our strongest sales quarter-to-date, with $14 million in net cannabis sales. And this was driven by growth through all four channels of international, medical, adult-use and domestic wholesale. But what’s most important is that 2020 saw us commence what is a major expansion of our product portfolio.
As a result, we are beginning to see what will be a significant recalibration of our revenue away from domestic wholesale and towards the sale of packaged cannabis products.
I know Ben will discuss in greater detail, but I will touch on the non-cash accounting write-downs, which clearly impacted the net loss in the quarter, but it’s important to note that these are accounting non-cash, non-recurring write-downs of intangible assets or goodwill. These have no impact on our cash profitability and they are not associated with the winding down of any facilities or other physical assets. It’s something that many of our peers have also gone through.
And with that behind us, we are in a great position for continued growth. Removing these non-cash items, we have realized our first annual positive adjusted EBITDA of $10 million on the year compared to a loss of $20 million in 2019. With the licensee bottleneck removed, our team did an excellent job developing new products, including some highly differentiated formats. Since the launch of vapes, we have delivered a total of 9 new product formats or significant line extensions.
Since October, we have launched a total of 31 new SKUs, many of which are sold in both medical and adult-use markets. Given what we started 6 months ago, this is quite an achievement from our team and something that really speaks to the executional capabilities.
During Q4, we launched high potency CBD oil 510 vape cartridges in cannabis-infused sublingual strips. Though sales of these products in the adult-use market only commenced in December, we are already beginning to see the impact as we saw a 500% sequential increase in recreational sales over Q3 driven by these new formats. This should significantly impact 2021 Q1 revenues for the betterment given 3 full months vs 1 month. - FUNMAN
In Q1 of this year, so far, our sublingual strips, Kin Slips, were a top selling product format and CBD 50 was our top selling individual product SKU. And recently, we launched THC soft chews, our first cannabis edible format. Of even greater importance though is that much more recent expansion of our dried flower portfolio. This obviously remains the most important category in Canada by a wide margin. Again, given that not of these product revenues are included in 2020 Q4 numbers, this bodes well for the Q1 report. - FUNMAN
This month, we commenced shipments of several new dried flower SKUs, including pre-rolls from our outdoor cultivation harvest. Rounding out the product front is the imminent launch of our wellness line, Noon & Night. This is a highly differentiated brand that features formats that are familiar to consumers in non-cannabis form, but which often are not yet available to Canadian consumers. We have received purchase orders for the first two formats under this brand, including omega-3 softgels. We are now at the point where we have an incredibly diverse product portfolio, but the consistent theme is that we have focused on areas of key competitive advantages, whether that is through novel formats, quality or pricing. This sounds great, and again, revenues from these products won't be realized until 2021 Q1 and many not until Q2. - FUNMAN
On the international front, we have also made some significant headway. In December, we announced that our Niagara Greenhouse was deemed EU GACP compliant. Why that’s important is that means flower grown at our greenhouse is eligible to be exported to European Union and other international markets, with the caveat that it must be driving shipped from an EU GMP certified facility. And we have a strategic partner that does that for us. Since that time, we have sent batches to Germany for stability, quality and cannabinoid testing and the well-being to meet EU GMP standards. We are now in the final stages of beginning exports to the EU, with securing the customary import and export permits.
Similarly, we received an export permit earlier this week for our greenhouse flower to be exported to the UK. Obviously, the international channels are filled with red tape and take time, but most of the heavy lifting is done and we are excited to commence our first exports to new countries in Europe in the near future. The UK, Germany and Israel might add some meaningful revenues to 2021 Q2 and beyond. But, it doesn't appear that they have customers lined up except in Israel. - FUNMAN
We also completed our largest international shipment ever to Australia in Q4. We may start to see more regularity in orders from our customers there as we merely received a larger purchase order in January and are just waiting for the export permits now.
Lastly, I will touch on our agreement with Unifor, Canada’s largest private sector union, which has 315,000 members. For American shareholders, Unifor would be the equivalent of the UAW in the U.S. The purpose of this agreement is to gain insurance coverage for medical cannabis for union members and their immediate family members. Unifor has shown great leadership in advancing this cause, which is fundamentally about patient access to medicine. We now have one of the Canada’s largest employers signed on to the program with their employees and family members soon becoming eligible to spend $500 per year per person on medical cannabis through their insurance plans. Putting this in perspective, if only 15% of UNIFOR members (47,250) opt for reimbursement of $500 annually, that's a sweet $23,625,000 bump in Aleafia's annual revenues. I use the 15% number because ... - FUNMAN
(CTADS 2017 indicates that 15% of Canadians age 15 and older (or 4.4 million) have used cannabis in the past 12 months (19% among age 15 to 19 years; 33% among age 20 to 24 years; and 13% among age 25 years and older).
That was a Terrible conference Call, they didn't give actual Numbers they talked Percents, we've always heard Patient numbers!! They only talked about Unifor and it was $500.00 of coverage per year, per Patient, that seems a bit out of Wack.. They Lacked any color on everything... the Q-1 will be less then Last years Q-1. One Analyst was on the call and asked 3-Questions and the call was Over... Good Day.

Have to check Sedar for the full filings later.
IMO, this report is a relief, but they have to do better. Moreover, they have to do better consistently. I don't want to see a big drop off in Q3 again because they ran out of product. The indoor facility should help in that regards, but they won't be selling wholesale out of that greenhouse. - FUNMAN

I hope not too. They have been doing what they say they will. They were one of the first to market with vapes, their kinslips are amazing, they have decent flower. They just rolled out Bogart’s kitchen gummy line, they are one of the few canadian companies that has a good balance sheet. I think this financial announcement will provide clarity.
It is sure looking like no run up in anticipation of Q4 earnings coming out. Hopefully that means we will get a good bump in buying after earnings are made public.
I hope they are not doing anything shady. Been slowly losing the trust in the team. Been holding over 4 years now.
I do not know, crazy that the deal with the biggest union in the country got crickets in response. Strange times.
So low here, price and volume.... is everyone waiting for financials or just all in on the US market?
$ALEAF heavy volume day. Already broke it's avg 10 day volume.
Do y'all think we will see a run up prior to the earnings release with a sell on the news? Seen that pattern so many times. Suspect it will also depend on just how good the news.
I was actually trying to give them some info. It is impossible to advertise here in canada but there are ways to get the word out. There is a girl with some pretty severe medical issues who has gotten a great deal of help from the medical cannabis and she is kind of diarizing her experience. Not a stoner and she talks about the effects she gets from different products. Many are from Aleafia because she mentions Emblem as one of her prescriptions. I just wanted them to know about the channel. They could not pay her or anything but they could point people who are new to cannabis to someone who is navigating the system and doing personal reviews of the effects and challenges. They did not respond at all which I find very rude. I also find it poor business to not use every opportunity to advertise your product.. Word of mouth is the best advertising and she speaks highly of the products. I really do not care one way or the other but I was just surprised their response was silence.
I did not give the info since they did not answer me. Lol! You do not know what you don’t know.
I know I emailed them a while back and they did not reply until the information I was asking for was made public- It had to do with date of release of earnings report. So, from my experience, they don't reply if you are asking for information that is not yet made public.
Are you asking questions that they cannot legally answer?
Can you share some of what info youre looking for here on this board? Maybe someone here already knows.
I havent tried contacting IR as of yet.
I have left phone messages and since they say if you want a faster response to email, I have emailed and have had no response at all to either. I was very surprised
I’ve found them to be very responsive.
Every time I’ve reached out they’ve responded.
I have sometimes. It depends upon what you ask and how you ask it.
Has anyone found Aleafia’s investor relations at all responsive? That so is the only thing I have been disappointed in at all. The kinslips were incredible for a family member. Like one dose amazing!
Saskatchewan's population reached 1,177,884. With no big cities, it's not a ground breaking addition to sales potential, but it's a big plus knowing they were able to get over the regulatory hurdles.
It's also important because there are 6 more provinces with their own hurdles to go.
Aleafia's adult-use products are only reaching two thirds of Canada. That leaves some substantial growth opportunities.
Let's kick that into gear Aleafia! - FUNMAN

Thanks for the Kin Slips link. I wasnt finding them on the OCS website because I thought they were listed under Symbol brand. Duh! Hope to get a specific breakdown of revenue from Kin Slips such as do they pay a cut from each individual sale for licensing fee or did they pay a one time contract fee?
Looking forward to the earnings FUN.
Cannabis companies to report earnings: Village Farms on March 16, followed by Green Thumb Industries on March 17, Hexo Corp. and Sundial Growers on March 18, TerrAscend Corp. on March 23, and Aleafia Health, Cresco Labs and Charlotte’s Web on March 25.
Yeah, like that 7 mil stolen from $ALEAF.
No idea but maybe we'll find out on the next report?
I’ve patronized 6 One Plant stores over the past year. I’ve visited/purchased from 4 local competitors as well.
The One Plant stores were/are most impressive.
https://www.oneplant.ca/stores/
All were very customer service oriented
To be fair the others were as well but not as organized.
The governmental involvement up here has/had truly stifled many but the strong have survived.
I spoke to various managers and owners and each confirmed that store sales and traffic have increased monthly even during our ever changing lockdown rules.
Emblem products are well accepted and continue to have loyal buyers.
Kin Slips are selling well.

We’ve heard about big busts at illegal cultivators. It’s the big distributor crime lords that need to be taken down.
Aleafia owns 10% of One Plant. I wonder how the accounting works?
I think they have been trying to crack down on illegal sales for some time and it's beginning to pay off for retailers.
They were a bit behind schedule but better late than never. One would think they are buying quite a bit of ALEFIA products.

Good luck with your new shares. I have no idea which company MF is referencing at the bottom of the article. The link takes you to another form to register. I choose not to proceed further.
