TORONTO and GLIL YAM, Israel, Oct. 2, 2024
/CNW/ -- IM Cannabis Corp. (CSE: IMCC) (NASDAQ: IMCC) (the
"Company", "IMCannabis", or "IMC"), a leading
medical cannabis company with operations in Israel and Germany, is pleased to announce that the
preliminary sales results in Germany by its German subsidiary, Adjupharm
GmbH ("IMC Germany"), for the third quarter of 2024 have
significantly exceeded expectations, showing a remarkable 50%
increase in revenue compared to the second quarter, where IMC
Germany sold about CAD$ 3.5M. This
outstanding growth demonstrates IMC Germany's successful execution
of its strategic initiatives and strong market demand for its
products.
Since the partial legalization of cannabis in Germany came into effect in April 2024, the demand for cannabis products in
pharmacies has increased significantly, emphasizing the importance
of a robust, reliable supply chain.
"Since April 1st, one
of our key objectives was to ensure a supply chain strong enough to
meet the increase in demand. This preliminary 50% growth is
testament, in part, to delivering on this objective," said
Oren Shuster, CEO of IMC. "We
are thrilled with our Q3 performance, which not only surpassed our
own targets but also highlights the dedication and hard work of our
entire team."

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FUTURE ORIENTED FINANCIAL
INFORMATION
This press release may contain future oriented financial
information ("FOFI") within the meaning of Canadian securities
legislation, about prospective results of operations, financial
position or cash flows, based on assumptions about future economic
conditions and courses of action, which FOFI is not presented in
the format of a historical balance sheet, income statement or cash
flow statement.
The FOFI has been prepared by management to provide an outlook
of the Company's activities and results and has been prepared based
on a number of assumptions including the assumptions discussed
under the heading above entitled "Cautionary Note Regarding Future
Oriented Financial Information" and assumptions with respect to the
costs and expenditures to be incurred by the Company, capital
expenditures and operating costs, taxation rates for the Company
and general and administrative expenses. Management does not have,
or may not have had at the relevant date, firm commitments for all
of the costs, expenditures, prices or other financial assumptions
which may have been used to prepare the FOFI or assurance that such
operating results will be achieved and, accordingly, the complete
financial effects of all of those costs, expenditures, prices and
operating results are not, or may not have been at the relevant
date of the FOFI, objectively determinable.
Importantly, the FOFI contained in this press release and the
documents incorporated by reference herein, are, or may be, based
upon certain additional assumptions that management believes to be
reasonable based on the information currently available to
management, including those assumptions discussed under the heading
"Disclaimer for Forward-Looking Statements" and assumptions about:
(i) the future pricing for the Company's products, (ii) the future
market demand and trends within the jurisdictions in which the
Company may from time to time conduct the Company's business, and
(iii) the Company continued ability to maintain its capital to fund
its ongoing business development and future growth.
The FOFI or financial outlook contained in this press release do
not purport to present the Company's financial condition in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as
issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and there
can be no assurance that the assumptions made in preparing the FOFI
will prove accurate. The actual results of operations of the
Company and the resulting financial results will likely vary from
the amounts set forth in the analysis presented in any such
document, and such variation may be material (including due to the
occurrence of unforeseen events occurring subsequent to the
preparation of the FOFI). The Company and management believe that
the FOFI has been prepared on a reasonable basis, reflecting
management's best estimates and judgments as at the applicable
date. However, because this information is highly subjective and
subject to numerous risks including the risks discussed under the
heading above entitled "Cautionary Note Regarding Future Oriented
Financial Information", FOFI or financial outlook within this in
this press release should not be relied on as necessarily
indicative of future results.
