CANOPY GROWTH AND INDIVA ANNOUNCE AGREEMENT TO POSITION WANA GUMMIES FOR CONTINUED NORTH AMERICAN BRAND LEADERSHIP
MAY. 30, 2023 By LAURA NADEAU
Canopy Growth to control all distribution, marketing, and sales of industry leading Wana branded products in Canada, further uniting the Company’s North American house of brands
Indiva to manufacture Wana for Canopy in Canada under exclusivity ensuring continuity of
quality product supply
Canopy to acquire 19.99% interest in Indiva as part of the transactions
SMITHS FALLS, ON, and LONDON, ON May 30, 2023 /CNW/ – Canopy Growth Corporation (“Canopy Growth” or the “Company”) (TSX: WEED) (NASDAQ: CGC), a leading global cannabis company, and Indiva Limited (“Indiva“) (TSXV:NDVA), the leading Canadian producer of cannabis edibles and other cannabis products, and its subsidiary, Indiva Inc., announced today that they have entered into a license assignment and assumption agreement (the “Assignment Agreement“) providing Canopy Growth exclusive rights and interests to manufacture, distribute, and sell Wana™ branded products in Canada which accelerates Canopy Growth’s ability to leverage the Wana brand.
Simultaneously, to support continuity of quality supply and aligned to Canopy Growth’s asset light strategy for sourcing of cannabis 2.0 formats, Canopy Growth and Indiva also entered into a contract manufacturing agreement (the “Manufacturing Agreement“), under which Canopy Growth will grant Indiva the exclusive right to manufacture and supply Wana™ branded products in Canada for a period of five years, with the ability to renew for an additional five-year term upon mutual agreement of the parties.
David Klein, CEO of Canopy Growth, said, “Collectively, these agreements provide Canopy Growth more complete ownership over the value chain for the Wana brand in Canada, while ensuring continuity of high-quality manufacturing and consistency with Canopy’s asset-light production strategy. By better aligning our ownership position in Wana throughout North America, we expect to accelerate the introduction of product innovation in Canada that has already proven enormously popular in the United States. We expect this arrangement to be immediately accretive to Canopy Growth’s EBITDA, and we look forward to partnering with Indiva to further bolster Wana’s position as a leading edible brand in Canada.”
“We are excited to form this investment and contract manufacturing partnership with Canopy Growth, and we look forward to continuing to produce Wana gummies for many years to come,” said Niel Marotta, President and CEO of Indiva. “The benefits of this partnership to Indiva’s shareholders are three-fold: First, the strategic investment bolsters Indiva’s balance sheet. Second, the initial five-year term of the contract manufacturing agreement, and the potential to renew for an additional five-year term, extends the timeline and economic benefit to Indiva from sales of Wana gummies well beyond the remaining term of the existing licensing agreement. Lastly, Indiva’s commitment to production innovation has made us Canada’s leading producer of high-quality cannabis edibles, and we look forward to leveraging our recent investments in automation for the processing and packaging of edible products.”
“This is a great step forward in solidifying both Wana’s brand leadership, as well as integrating Wana with Canopy Growth’s strong presence in Canada,” said Nancy Whiteman, CEO of Wana Brands. “This new agreement allows us to bring our most innovative products to Canada much more rapidly, while allowing Canopy Growth to begin recognizing the EBITDA benefits that Wana can help drive. We already know the team at Canopy Growth well, which should make for a smooth transition, and it will be great to have the oversight of the Canopy Growth team on the Wana brand in Canada. We thank Indiva for all they have done to make Wana the top edible in Canada over the past three years[1] and we are pleased that we will have the opportunity to continue to work with their great team in a production capacity.”
Transaction Terms
As consideration for Indiva entering into the Assignment Agreement and other related agreements in respect of the transactions described herein, Indiva will complete a non-brokered private placement offering of common shares (“Common Shares“) of Indiva whereby Canopy Growth will subscribe for 37,230,000 Common Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $2,155,617 (the “Private Placement“) at a price per Common Share of $0.0579 (the “Issue Price“). The Issue Price was determined based on the 10-day volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV“) during the 10 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day immediately prior to the date hereof. Upon closing of the Private Placement, Canopy will exercise control and direction over 19.99% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. The balance of the consideration will be paid by Canopy to Indiva as follows: (i) additional consideration representing a value of $844,383; (ii) a cash payment of $1,250,000 on May 30, 2024.
Indiva intends to use the net proceeds of the Private Placement to satisfy its existing obligations under its license to manufacture and sell Wana™ branded products in Canada and for its costs and expenses related to the manufacture and supply Wana™ branded products under the Manufacturing Agreement.
Following the closing of the Private Placement, Canopy Growth will have the ability to nominate an individual as a Board observer on the Board of Directors of Indiva. Canopy Growth and Indiva will also enter into a customary standstill and voting support agreement.
The Private Placement is expected to close on or before June 6, 2023 (the “Closing Date“) and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the TSXV. The Common Shares to be issued under the Private Placement will have a hold period of four months and one day from the Closing Date. The Private Placement is integral to the Assignment Agreement and other related agreements in respect of the transactions described herein, and therefore Indiva expects to rely on the “part and parcel” pricing exception available under section 1.7 of TSXV Policy 4.1 – Private Placements

U.S. Index must hold $11.88
Tilray screwed the pouch on Friday,
Last I read, yesterday, Monday. Maybe before open?
Just pray it's not terrible.
If the DOW closes green today, Cannabis MUST do the same! We have got to shake off the TILRAY hangover.

What up?
Why is there a reluctance to reverse split shares?
I believe the sector flattens out here for a month or so followed by a confirmed reversal.
$0.004 to $0.0045 = 12 percent. If held for 2 weeks, is 312 percent annualized.
My prediction?
TRULIEVE holds $4.18
A reversal confirmation is seen soon.
TLRY messed with this stock on Friday. Should bounce back tomorrow.
Super important week.
MJ $3.07
I expect MJ to hold $3.00 and produce a confirmed reversal within the next 21 days.

Except for a handful of names (WEED TLRY) I have been looking for the bottom of the Cannabis sector.

Would the sector have been green on Friday except for the TILRAY news? Averaging down on WEED. May begin a position on TLRY.

Yes. The volume has dried up a bit.
Shares are under pressure.

Volume: 100
Day Range: 23.02 - 23.02
If I am right, it will begin to trade sideways or down.
Since I started buying the previous Monday, my positions are -0.046. My guess is that without the influence of TILRAY, my positions would be sitting at even after 2 weeks. Even with the addition of CGC. I am crossing my fingers for a green DOW and positions on Tuesday.
Really need a green Dow Jones on Tuesday. With that, Cannabis should be green. Not sure if there will be another shoe to drop similar to TLRY on Friday.
No word.
Acting like a bottom is in.
I keep an eye on the EFT MJ when it comes to determining a bottom. I believe MJ would have held a 52-week low except for the TLRY news on Friday. I look for Tuesday to be green for the sector.
Volume is a bit light here as of late.
