USMJ Q3 2017 Earnings Report
May 18, 2017
Financial Performance Executive Summary
North American Cannabis Holdings’ (“USMJ”) fiscal year end is June 30th. USMJ just released its third quarter financial report for the period ending March 31, 2017. Management is pleased to report year-to-date sales for the three quarters ending March 31, 2017 of $530,000. The revenue for the first three quarters of 2017 exceeds the total revenue of $515,000 reported for the entire year of 2016. The 2017 year-to-date gross profit of $292,000 also exceeds the total gross profit of $276,000 for the entire year of 2016. The revenue for the first three quarters of 2017 is up 40% over the revenue for the first three quarters of 2016. The 2017 third quarter revenue of $205,000 is up 41% over the 2016 third quarter revenue of $145,000. The 2017 third quarter gross profit of $117,000 is up 53% over the 2016 third quarter gross profit of $41,000. Notably, USMJ posted its first profit since entering the cannabis sector in 2013. The profit of $7,000 is small, but nevertheless a substantial milestone lending credibility to the Company’s long-term viability.
The balance sheet also continues to improve with overall liabilities reduced by $1 million from $3.5 million at the end of the third quarter in 2016 to $2.5 million at the end of the third quarter in 2017.
Get – Paid – To - Learn
Management anticipates rapid organic revenue growth to continue. The Company has practiced a get-paid-to-learn approach to introducing new cannabis sector products and services:
“We identify new enterprise opportunities within the cannabis sector, and we act fast to implement them the best we can rather than loosing early mover market share by spending too much time on a research and planning exercise that probably far exceeds any prudent preparation requirement necessary to launch a pilot sized enterprise,” said USMJ CEO Steven Rash. “If you idle a car in your driveway to warm it up so that it will perform with better efficiency when you drive, you’re getting zero miles to the gallon. You maximize inefficiency in the name of efficiency. Its smarter to take it easy on your car while it warms up, but to go ahead and get some miles down the road. USMJ has jumped into a number of cannabis enterprises and offset the investment required to enter those enterprises by actually selling products and services. Here at USMJ, we’ve seen this get-paid-to-learn approach working. Now, with our revenues growing and posting our first small profit, we have something to point to that shows the market our get-paid-to-learn approach is working.”
American Cannabis Innovations Conglomerated
The Company recently announced the pending roll-up of USMJ into a private holding company called American Cannabis Innovations Conglomerated (“ACI”). While the majority control of USMJ will be held by ACI, USMJ common stock will continue to be listed and trade on the OTC Markets. The transaction between USMJ and ACI does not change USMJ shareholders ability to buy and sell stock. Furthermore, there is no plan to reverse split the stock of USMJ as part of the ACI transaction. On the contrary, management believes the ACI transaction can improve the quality of investment capital and the overall operating efficiency of the Company and in so doing actually enhance the value of USMJ common stock.
The ACI acquisition of the majority interest in USMJ is designed to improve the quality of investment capital available to USMJ to fund growth through product and service expansion.
American Seed & Oil Company
American Seed & Oil Company was the first operating subsidiary under USMJ to enter the cannabis sector. American Seed & Oil Company was a pure cannabis enterprise incubator. Through contracts, joint ventures, acquisitions and even organic start-ups, American Seed & Oil piloted a number of cannabis enterprises. The cannabis extraction business now under Puration, Inc. (USOTC: PURA) started under American Seed & Oil. Once USMJ committed to developing and growing the AmeriCanna Cafe restaurant business, American Seed & Oil did not go away, but it took a back seat.
ACI recognizes the extraordinary upside potential of getting behind promising start-ups and the risk that goes along with start-ups. Accordingly, ACI is taking a portfolio approach to investing in start-ups to balance that upside with the corresponding risk through diversification.
Part of the portfolio approach will inevitably involve periodically exiting some enterprises that don’t establish sustainable traction. The flip side of that means that new enterprises need to be coming into the portfolio in order to replace those that don’t make it. American Seed & Oil Company’s incubator business model will be the platform for feeding in new enterprise opportunities.
American Seed & Oil Company is going to get a 21st century incubator update. The Company will launch a social media platform for cannabis entrepreneurs at large to promote their businesses. Interested investors can browse the site and engage with entrepreneurs. ACI will itself look for promising cannabis enterprises on the site and periodically pursue bringing particularly promising enterprises into its fold.
AmeriCanna Cafe
The AmeriCanna Cafe is the crown jewel of USMJ – for the moment. With the coming ACI transaction, USMJ has even more in the works. In the meantime, the AmeriCanna Cafe is knocking down doors and taking names having been central to USMJ’s overall 40% revenue growth, and 53% gross margin growth, not to mention delivering the Company’s first quarterly profit. USMJ has started selling partnership options to open the first 20 AmeriCanna Cafe restaurants and expects the opening of multiple restaurants to increase the Company’s overall growth rate, in turn, increasing the pace that much closer to the published $2 million annual revenue goal.
Pushing the growth rate even further, USMJ will imminently beggin introducing cannabis infused beverages under the AmeriCanna Cafe brand name. The beverages will be available both from the AmeriCanna Cafes themselves, in addition to be distributed outside the AmeriCanna Cafes. The first beverage to be introduced will be AmeriCann Cafe CBD Infused Water, followed by the introduction of three AmeriCanna Cafe CBD Infused Flavored Waters. Other cannabis infused beverages will follow.
All of us here at USMJ are very happy with the Company’s progress todate. There are not many upstart cannabis sector companies with revenue, let alone with a profit. We think our results speak for themselves. We are more confident than ever before about the future of USMJ.

North American Cannabis Holdings Highlights Share Price Enhancement Potential
May 8, 2017
Dallas, Tx – May 8, 2017 – North American Cannabis Holdings, Inc. (USOTC: USMJ) today released a letter to shareholders from CEO Steven Rash to highlight the anticipated share price enhancement potential from the pending acquisition of a controlling interest in USMJ by American Cannabis Innovations Conglomerated (“ACI”) announced last week.
Dear Shareholders –
After months of planning, last week the soon anticipated transaction with American Cannabis Conglomerated (“ACI”) was announced. By the end of this month, we expect for ACI to acquire the controlling interest in USMJ.
ACI is a private equity backed rollup founded to combine a variety of leading young cannabis companies with complimentary offerings and synergistic operations. As one of the first two companies to be acquired into the rollup, USMJ management will play a key roll in ACI.
USMJ Share Price Enhancement Potential
The goal of the ACI is to improve the market capitalization value of otherwise undervalued cannabis sector companies by 1) improving operating efficiencies made possible through the combination of multiple operations under one roof and 2) improving the terms on growth capital resources with investment that does not come with excessive downward pressure on share prices.
No Reverse Split and No New Common Shares To Be Issued
Since the announcement last week, the Company has received a number of calls and emails from shareholders concerned about various possible impacts to their current share positions. One shareholder was worried that their shares would no longer be traded public. USMJ common shares will remain publicly traded on the OTC Markets. A reverse split of the common stock is NOT a required term of the ACI transaction. ACI is acquiring a control block of preferred shares that do not trade publicly. No new common shares are being issued as part of the ACI transaction. We sincerely anticipate the ACI acquisition of USMJ control to enhance the value of USMJ common stock.
Stay tuned for a number of exciting updates corresponding to the ACI transaction to be forthcoming in the next few weeks.
Steven Rash
CEO

American Cannabis Innovations Conglomerated To Acquire North American Cannabis Holdings And Puration
May 4, 2017
Dallas, Tx – May 4, 2017 – American Cannabis Innovations Conglomerated (“ACI”) has entered into a Letter of Intent to acquire the controlling interest in both North American Cannabis Holdings, Inc. (USOTC: USMJ) and Puration, Inc. (USOTC: PURA). ACI is a private equity backed rollup founded to combine a variety of leading young cannabis companies with complimentary offerings and synergistic operations all under one roof. USMJ and PURA are the first of five acquisitions in the cannabis sector ACI plans to announce within the next 30 days. ACI is seeking to acquire early stage, undervalued businesses with intellectual properties validated by market tests, if not initial commercial or consumer sales. ACI expects to improve the operating efficiency of acquired assets by streaming redundant functions and leveraging complimentary functions. ACI expects the potential for market capitalizations of acquired companies to improve by transitioning the acquired companies toward better investment structures, with better terms, that are altogether better suited to their current and more mature stage of development. Existing USMJ and PURA management are expected to be included in the ACI management team. ACI, USMJ and PURA plan to finalize the acquisition of USMJ and PURA into ACI by the end of May.
“The opportunity for USMJ with ACI is huge,” said Steven Rash, CEO of North American Cannabis Holdings. “ACI brings the type of quality backing that can rapidly accelerate USMJ’s growth.”
“Puration has had tremendous success with its recent EVERx launch and is ready to launch a dozen additional products under the EVERx brand,” said Brian Shibley, CEO of Puration. “ACI is the answer to the product production costs required to launch the additional products. Watch out, here we come.”

North American Cannabis Holdings Sales Continue To Grow
May 2, 2017
Dallas, Tx – May 2, 2017 – North American Cannabis Holdings, Inc. (USOTC: USMJ) today announced that the pilot sales of new sports and fitness nutritional supplements that resulted in the Company’s reported 40% revenue growth and 53% gross margin growth in Q2 continued into Q3 are expected to remain consistent in Q4. Management anticipates the upcoming Q3 financial report to reflect the continued pilot product sales.
“Last year, the Company introduced the pilot sales of some new sports and fitness nutritional supplements as part of our ongoing strategy to develop the AmeriCanna Cafe and a line of AmeriCanna Cafe cannabis infused products,” said Steven Rash, CEO of North American Cannabis Holdings. “As the word ‘pilot’ suggests, the sales of the nutritional supplements was a test. The test went better than anticipated and substantially boosted our overall sales revenue in our fiscal Q2. We are fortunate to have hit a new product line right out of the gate and not otherwise had to endure cycling through trial and error to get it right. At this point, we expect the increased sales to continue and we are now working to expand the sales program.”

USMJ And Puration Majority Shareholder And Veteran CIA Operations Officer Edward Bollen To Speak On Opioid Epidemic At Southwest Cannabis Conference
April 12, 2017
North American Cannabis Holdings, Inc. (USOTC: USMJ) and Puration, Inc. (USOTC: PURA) today announced that majority shareholder and veteran Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Operations Officer Edward Bollen will speak at the upcoming Southwest Cannabis Conference and Expo in Fort Worth, Texas April 22-23 on the subject of America’s current opioid epidemic. Deaths from opioid overdoes are at an all time high with 165,000 people dying form prescription opioid overdoes alone since 1999. Cannabis provides a safe alternative to many of the ailments treated with prescription opioids.
Mr. Bollen will participate in a panel discussion on the opioid epidemic bringing his 33 years of U.S. Government service experience in multiple National Security fields. Mr. Bollen has extensive experience in military special operations, law enforcement investigations and covert action. He has traveled to, worked in or lived in over 70 different countries throughout his career. His career started in the U.S. Marine Corps where his service included a 3-year tour of duty as a military aid to the White House. Mr. Bollen transitioned from the Marines to begin a 26 year career with the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) as an Intelligence Operations Officer where he held several senior management positions both domestic and abroad. He has served in Africa, the Middle East, Central Eurasia, Asia, and South America.
In addition to his founding role at USMJ, Mr. Bollen works today as a threat assessment consultant, corporate security advisor and security team leader for industrial physical and personal requirements. Mr. Bollen recently worked as a consultant on the History Channel series “Selection: Special Operations Experiment” which provided some unclassified insight into how the America’s elite commands select candidates for service in Special Forces units.
“I’m proud of the work USMJ has accomplished in the evolving legal cannabis sector,” said Mr. Bollen, majority shareholder and co-founder. “The company has experimented and trialed a number of different enterprises across this diverse and ever changing landscape. One can’t be an entrepreneur in this market sector without also being a socially responsible advocate for the real benefits cannabis has to bring to the communality and economy. I believe you will find here at USMJ that we are committed to doing our part, and we invite all to come see for themselves at the Southwest Cannabis Conference and Expo in Fort Worth next week.”
USMJ is presenting its fast casual concept restaurant, the AmeriCanna Cafe, at the Southwest Cannabis Conference and Expo and featuring its sports and fitness nutritional supplement product line, EVERx with licensed products produced by Puration to include EVERx CBD Infused Bottled Sports Water, EVERx Alkaline Bottled Sports Water, and EVERx CBD Infused Gummies for Post Workout Recovery.
Puration recently announced that NCM Biotech has licensed to PURA the right to utilize NCM Biotech’s patented cannabis extraction process to produce cannabis extracts for infusion into recreational, fitness wellness, alternative medicine and beauty products. NCM Biotech exclusively owns U.S. Patent No. 9,199,960 entitled “METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING HERBACEOUS PLANT MATERIALS INCLUDING THE CANNABIS PLANT.” The license of the process to PURA is the first and only license NCM Biotech has executed.

Sales Up 50%; 2 More Dividends; Trump Actually Supports Cannabis And The Best Is Yet To Come
March 10, 2017
UFC #3 Ranked Women's Bantam Weight EVERx Spokesperson Juliana Pena
UFC #3 Ranked Women's Bantam Weight EVERx Spokesperson Juliana Pena
North American Cannabis Holdings (USMJ) and Puration (PURA) have started 2017 at a gangbuster rate, and we anticipate the pace to pickup from here. We have initiated a transaction with Aternet Systems, Inc. (USOTC: ALYI) to launch a cannabis retail payment system, and another transaction involving Spanish Peaks ScrumpDelicacies and ML Capital Group (USOTC: MLCG) to enhance our cannabis infused edibles business with a luxury cannabis tour offering starting in Colorado and expanding into other regions. The cannabis tour service will be similar to wine enthusiasts tours through Napa Valley and Tuscany. We have launched the EVERx Cannabis Infused Sports and Fitness Nutritional Supplement Brand with a tremendously successful event at the Arnold Sports Festival, and we have seen our quarterly revenue numbers jump by nearly fifty percent. Our humble beginnings back in 2013 initiated by four US Military Veterans inspired by the use of cannabinol (CBD) to ease the symptoms of a seizure disordered suffered by one of the Veterans’ daughters have now matured into a promising operation with blockbuster potential.
USMJ Is About To Do To Cannabis What NETFLIX Did To Cable And UBER Did To Taxis
NETFLIX TV.jpg
USMJ is preparing to transform organizationally extending its lead in the cannabis sector even further ahead of the field of cannabis sector companies vying for investor attention. No, that is not code for an impending reverse split. A reverse split is not part of our plan to transform. USMJ has honed and continues to improve upon a business model where it pilots a variety of cannabis enterprises and then rewards it investors by issuing stock in spinoffs of successful pilots ready to standalone. The planned organizational transformation will be initiated by a strategic acquisition bringing new key talent and assets into USMJ, and in so doing, taking USMJ’s pilot and spinoff business model to a whole new level. Nothing like USMJ’s pilot and spinoff business model exits in the cannabis sector, and what USMJ is about to introduce with this coming transformation will change the cannabis sector the way NETFLIX changed cable television and UBER changed taxi and limo service.
The Transformation Begins 4/20 2017
The annual cannabis industry 420 celebration is only a month away. Watch out next week when USMJ and PURA announce a coming trade show exhibit in conjunction with this year’s 420 celebration as the first small part of the two Companies’ plan to introduce the industry changing transformation. USMJ and PURA will be joined at the 420 trade show by the target acquisition that will catalyze USMJ’s transformation. The trade show will also include the official launch of the AmeriCanna Cafe. After acquiring the flagship City Blends Smoothie Cafe in located in Dallas in the summer of 2015 in order to develop a fast casual cannabis concept restaurant, USMJ will demo the AmeriCanna Cafe at the 420 conference to begin marketing license, franchise and partnership opportunities to restaurant investors.
Nothing Proves Out A Pilot Opportunity Like Revenue
USMJ has published a business plan forecast for $2 million in revenue expected to result from the ongoing expansion of its existing pilot operations with the bulk of the revenue coming from its AmeriCanna Cafe pilot and live launch. PURA has published a $3 million business plan revenue forecast based on the infusion of its proprietary cannabis extracts into foods and beverages. Management of both Companies is enthusiastic about progress so far this year and confidently maintaining the previously published forecasts.
ALYI Is On Its Way And Spanish Peaks Has A Surprise
The dividend issue of PURA stock to USMJ shareholders was a long process, but one rich with experience that will be evident in the future issuance of dividends. Management anticipates a more deliberate execution of the dividend issuance of ALYI stock to USMJ shareholder and of Spanish Peaks stock to PURA shareholders. MLCG shareholders will also benefit from USMJ and PURA’s dividend experience in regard to the issuance of Spanish Peaks stock to MLCG shareholders. While Spanish Peaks is currently a private company – spoiler alert – a Spanish Peaks reverse merger with an existing public company is in the works. PURA and MLCG shareholders can anticipate receiving Spanish Peaks public stock in conjunction with the PURA MLCG Spanish Peaks transaction. Stay tuned for future announcements to learn more.
