👋🙂👍️ Hi John
OGI 🙂 Thanks John
International Business https://investors.organigram.ca/international
Aligned to its vision, “To be a respected global leader in the emerging cannabis movement”, Organigram is committed to expanding its market presence by adding to its product offering and enhancing its geographical presence. This vision is enabled by strategic merger and acquisition opportunities and assessing expansion into international markets.
Currently, Organigram has 5 international partners who are medical cannabis leaders in their geographies.
CANNDOC*: In June 2020, Organigram entered into a multi-year agreement to supply dried flower to one of Israel’s largest and most established pharmaceutical cannabis producers, Canndoc Ltd., a subsidiary of InterCure Ltd. In November 2022, the companies jointly entered into a new multi-year agreement wherein Organigram will supply up to 20,000 kg of dried flower over multiple years.
CANNATREK*: In May 2018, Organigram entered into agreement with Cannatrek, a fully licenced and proudly Australian vertically integrated medicinal cannabis enterprise to supply medical cannabis products. Organigram currently ships Grade A Indoor, Bulk Cannabis flower to Cannatrek in Australia that is sold under Cannatrek’s brands.
MEDCAN AUSTRALIA*: In August 2022, Organigram signed a new agreement with Medcan Australia, a front runner in the Australia Medicinal Cannabis Industry to supply high quality medical cannabis flower.
Medcan Australia previously had an agreement with Laurentian Organic Inc. prior to Organigram's acquisition of the company.
SANITY GROUP: In May 2023, Organigram entered into a supply agreement for dried flower with the medical division of German cannabis company Sanity Group, a health and life sciences company based in Berlin, Germany, dedicated to the medical applications of cannabinoids. Under the terms of the agreement Organigram will provide high-quality, indoor-grown dried flower product to Sanity Group and grant Sanity Group strain exclusivity on certain genetics.
4C LABS: In August 2023, Organigram further expanded its global footprint by entering into a supply agreement to provide dried Medical Cannabis flower to 4C LABS, a rapidly scaling healthcare, technology, and pharmaceutical company focused on virtual prescribing, pharmaceutical distribution, and clinical development of cannabis-based products for human health in the United Kingdom. Organigram has been chosen by 4C LABS to be the preferred supplier of Medical Cannabis flower to deliver innovative new products to the UK market and expects to supply approximately 600 kilograms of high-quality, indoor-grown dried flower product within the first year.
*Activities under the Agreement are subject to compliance with all applicable laws, including receipt of all requisite approvals from Health Canada, the Israeli Medical Cannabis Agency (IMCA) the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), and any other applicable regulatory authorities.
Given recent political changes in the United States, Organigram continues to monitor and develop potential U.S. entry strategies that could include THC, CBD and other minor cannabinoids, while also monitoring recreational legalization opportunities in European jurisdictions with a particular focus on German opportunities based on the size of the addressable market and recent regulatory changes.
OGI bullish Biden sentiment this morning pre market
This deal with Sanity if good forward thinking... I wonder what is the increase in medical canna customers in Germany since legalisation on April 1...? Does anyone have the figures...?
Thanks for that, Hunch.
Organigram Invests in Leading German Cannabis Company Sanity~Group... https://www.organigram.ca/press-releases/organigram-invests-in-sanity-group-a-leading-german-cannabis-company
Organigram Invests in Sanity Group, a Leading German Cannabis Company June 25th, 2024
Second “Jupiter” investment strengthens Organigram’s European access, including to the high-growth market of Germany.
Highlights:
Concurrent to the investment, Organigram and Sanity Group have entered into a new supply agreement to include significantly higher volumes and the intention to work together on the commercialization of Organigram’s brands and intellectual property (IP) in Germany.
Investment in the form of an unsecured convertible note combined with a minority equity stake in Sanity Group. Organigram entitled to appoint a representative to Sanity Group’s Board of Directors.
TORONTO, June 25, 2024 --- Organigram Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: OGI) (TSX: OGI), (the "Company" or "Organigram"), a leading licensed producer of cannabis, is pleased to announce its first significant strategic investment aimed at expanding its presence in the European cannabis market. Using proceeds from its Jupiter strategic investment pool, the Company has agreed to invest €14 million (~ C$21 million) initially comprised of €11.5 million via an unsecured convertible note and €2.5 million to purchase equity interests from existing Sanity Group founders and shareholders providing the Company with a minority stake in Berlin-based cannabis company Sanity Group GmbH (“Sanity” or “Sanity Group”). In addition, the Company may advance another €3 million (~ C$4.5 million) as a second tranche of the unsecured convertible note for future opportunities to be pursued by Sanity subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.
Sanity has quickly established itself as a leader in the German cannabis market where it maintains a robust distribution network with over 2,000 pharmacies working with approximately 5,000 physicians in Germany. Sanity currently holds approximately a 10% share of the German medical cannabis market where its medical brand, avaay, is estimated to hold the number two position and has shown impressive revenue growth since the recent legal reforms regarding partial legalization of adult-use recreational cannabis in Germany. Additionally, Sanity is currently participating in a Swiss recreational cannabis pilot program in the Basel canton, with one store operational and a plan to expand its retail footprint in Switzerland. In the coming months, Sanity is expected to invest in proprietary distribution channels providing it with what it believes will be a competitive advantage that capitalizes on new medical consumers entering the market.
The Company's investment also expands the previously announced supply agreement between Organigram and Sanity Group. Until such time as Organigram receives EU-GMP certification at its Moncton production facility, Sanity Group has committed to purchase significantly higher annual volumes of dried flower under the new agreement as compared to the previous one. Once Organigram receives EU-GMP certification in Moncton, Sanity Group will shift its annual purchase commitment from Organigram to a percentage of its overall assortment of flower offerings for the European market. Organigram expects to complete its final EU-GMP audit before the end of the calendar year. Additionally, the new commercial agreement contemplates, subject to terms and conditions, avenues by which Organigram can launch its industry-leading brands, products, and IP in the German market.
“A meaningful presence in Germany and Europe are essential to achieving our ambitions to be a global cannabis leader. We believe that after Canada, Germany will emerge as one of the more promising markets under a nationally legal model,” said Paolo De Luca, Chief Strategy Officer of Organigram. “With its evolving program for medical cannabis and recent limited legalization for recreational consumption, Germany may eventually adopt a full adult-use cannabis framework. This growth opportunity is magnified by positive regulatory developments in several neighbouring European jurisdictions where Sanity Group is expanding its presence,” he concluded.
“Our investment in Sanity Group establishes a significant European footprint for us. Organigram benefits from Sanity’s expertise and insights in the German (and in the future) other European cannabis markets. This has the potential to provide a pathway for us to launch our own brands and industry-leading IP through Sanity’s extensive distribution network. This relationship also bolsters our European revenue generation through a significantly expanded commercial agreement,” said Beena Goldenberg, CEO of Organigram.
“We are extremely pleased to close this strategic financing with Organigram who has consistently demonstrated itself to be a leader in the highly competitive and regulated Canadian cannabis market,” said Finn Hansel, co-founder and CEO of Sanity Group. “With its commitment to responsible R&D, innovation and product development, including through its relationship with BAT (British American Tobacco), we feel that we have chosen a partner that will support us in becoming a leader in the rapidly expanding legal European markets,” he concluded.
The German and European Cannabis Market
The German cannabis industry is poised for significant expansion following the recreational cannabis legal reforms enacted on April 1, 2024. According to BDSA estimates, Germany is expected to bring in ~USD$1.5 billion in total sales in 2024, set to grow to ~USD$3.7 billion by 2027. This remarkable growth is driven by a 30-50% increase in medical cannabis prescriptions since April 1, 2024, a likely result of the regulatory framework changes that may have accelerated the shift by consumers from the illicit market to the legal market. Germany’s cannabis industry progress is also anticipated to create a ‘ripple effect’, potentially shaping economic, regulatory, public health, and cultural landscapes across Europe. The success of Germany's cannabis industry could serve as a catalyst for a more unified and progressive approach to cannabis legalization and regulation across the continent.
Strategic Rationale and Potential Opportunities
Establishes a significant European footprint for Organigram through a leading regional cannabis company with a presence in multiple markets.
Organigram benefits from Sanity’s expertise and insights in the German (and in future) other European cannabis markets.
Provides a pathway for Organigram to launch its own brands and industry-leading IP in Europe through Sanity’s extensive distribution network.
Bolsters Organigram’s European revenue generation through an expanded commercial agreement with improved terms and commitments.
Further investment opportunities may allow Organigram to increase its unsecured convertible note and ownership position in Sanity Group.
Investment Details
€14 million initial investment consists of €11.5 million structured as an unsecured convertible note (the “Note”) issued by Sanity Group to the Company as lender and €2.5 million of already issued equity interests purchased from existing shareholders.
The Note yields 10% annual paid-in-kind (PIK) interest for a minimum of three years and is convertible at a discount to the price established by Sanity Group’s next qualified financing into the most senior class of shares (currently Series B).
Organigram has an option, subject to certain terms and conditions, to invest an additional €3 million on substantially the same terms as the Note which would bring its total investment to €17 million.
Sanity’s use of proceeds includes investments in various initiatives that are expected to give it access to over 100,000 patients, and aid in recreational cannabis pilot project expansion in applicable regions.
Notable previous investors in Sanity Group include BAT, Casa Verde Capital (Snoop Dog), Will.i.am (Black Eyed Peas), Navy Capital, Scooter Braun and Alyssa Milano amongst others.

on’t overlook this undervalued synergy!
British American Tobacco already has existing deals with both Charlottes Web Holdings $CWBHF and Organigram Holdings $OGI… There are a few possibilities for how BAT could leverage its partnerships with both companies:
Joint Investment: BAT, Charlottes Web, and Organigram could collaborate on a joint venture or even a merger (depending on regulations) to create a larger cannabis and CBD company. This would require significant planning and navigating potential regulatory hurdles.”
Market Expansion: BATs global reach could be valuable for both Charlottes Web and Organigram. BAT could help them enter new markets where cannabis or CBD products are legal. For example, BAT might leverage its existing distribution channels for these products.
Knowledge Sharing: BAT could act as a bridge between the two companies, facilitating knowledge sharing and best practices in areas like marketing, regulatory compliance, and cultivation techniques.
Thanks Bud :)
