$IONKF IONIC Brands Corp. Announces Record Sales of US$8.3 Million in Second Quarter 2021
Press Release | 08/31/2021
Release Highlights Record High Revenue for Second Quarter 2021
(Expressed in US dollars, unless otherwise stated)

Record Q2-2021 sales revenues of $8.3M and realized $1.3M in gross profit representing a 16% gross margin for the second quarter 2021, a 1.2% decline on quarter-on-quarter growth due to our combined B2B wholesale business and entrance into the sales of lower margin flower sales compared to our concentrate segments.
Record H1 sales revenues of $12.5M which exceeds the entire fiscal year of 2020 revenues by $3.5M, representing a 40% increase in revenue YTD
The Company maintains its target on baseline revenues of over $28 million for annual 2021.
Improved balance sheet through the conversion of $12.9 million in secured debt to preferred equity
TACOMA, WA / ACCESSWIRE / August 31, 2021 / IONIC BRANDS CORP. (CSE:IONC)(OTC PINK:IONKF)(FRA:IB3A) ("IONIC BRANDS'' or the "Company") a regional manufacturer of innovative cannabis consumables and concentrate extract products, is pleased to report financial results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021.

For further information on the financial results of the Company, please review the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements (unaudited) and the accompanying MD&A available under the Company's profile on www.SEDAR.com.

John Gorst, CEO of Ionic Brands, commented, "We made a commitment to our shareholders that we would improve the Company's balance sheet and financial performance, and our recently released June 30, 2021 results reinforce that commitment. After Ionic Brands' record revenue growth this quarter and a first half total revenue that exceeds 2020 fiscal year total revenues by 40%, we are achieving what we set out to do for our shareholders. Total revenues have also exceeded US$12 million for the first 6 months of 2021"

"Our improved top-line and bottom-line results, both year over year and sequentially, were primarily driven by modifications to operations related to our continued goal to drive down manufacturing costs and increase overall operating efficiency in the Washington and Oregon markets. While we are pleased with this quarter's progress, we have clearly laid a path to further enhance our financial performance by continuing to reduce operating expenses and remain hyper-focused on increasing gross margin revenues, improve our cash flows and reach profitability."

Financial Highlights:

Revenue for Q2-2021 was $8.3 million, compared to $2.9 million in Q2-2020 and $4.1 million in Q1-2021. The primary driver of the year-over-year growth was the Company entering the flower segment of the cannabis industry with the acquisition of the Cowlitz County Cannabis brand assets, which closed on March 5th, 2021. Furthermore, our growth was driven by the successful launch of new products in both the Washington and Oregon markets.
Adjusted EBITDA was ($964.4K) in Q2-2021, compared to ($5.4 million) in Q1-2021, representing a significant improvement of approximately $4.4 million quarter over quarter. The reduction of the Adjusted EBITDA loss is primarily attributable to an increase in overall gross margin revenue. The Company remains committed to prudently managing its operating expense on its mission to improve efficiency throughout the organization.
Revenue increased to $8.313 million in the second quarter of 2021, as compared to $4.199 million in the first quarter of 2021, representing a 98% increase. This strong quarter over quarter growth was driven primarily by the closing of the Cowlitz County Cannabis (CCC) brand asset acquisition on March 8th of 2021, where the Company acquired 6 additional brands, increasing our total portfolio size to 11 brands in the Washington and Oregon markets.
Gross margin revenue was 16.2% in the second quarter of 2021 compared to 17.3% in the first quarter of 2021. The 1.1 basis point reduction quarter over quarter is due to the mix of revenue earned in the quarter. New, lower margin streams of revenue came online during Q1 and continued in Q2 from the CCC acquisition, as well as business to business wholesale brokerage sales. The Company expects gross margin revenue will continue to increase in Q3 and beyond due to a mix of higher-margin product (Concentrates i.e. oil based products) sales from retail sales and the addition of Ionic Brands' dedicated wholesale partners lowering input costs from the use of contract raw material partners are expected. Furthermore, quarter-on-quarter margin improvement is expected in subsequent quarters of 2021, as biomass yields increase from the Company's exclusive licensed partner-operated assets and further consolidation of purchasing services between CCC in Washington combine to lower raw material input cost for their combined operations.
Operational Highlights:

During the first half of the 2021 year, the industry experienced aggressive pricing from various competing brands at local retail stores trying to gain market share. The Company's strategy is to maintain pricing to the retail stores, creating price stability to the end-consumer while capturing more significant gross margin revenue. The Company will maintain this pricing strategy by focusing on our premium product lines. As competition thins out and cannabis markets mature, that stabilization of wholesale pricing to retail stores will become the norm. Conversely, the Company further understands the delicate balance between margin enhancement and gaining additional market share, which we monitor monthly and adjust our strategy as required
Ionic Brands commenced operations from its newly leased 46,000 square feet facility in June 2021. This manufacturing footprint managed by the Company's exclusive licensed partners will allow the Company to increase its manufacturing output by six times, resulting in increased revenues and margin performance. Due to our recent investments in infrastructure, inventory, and manufacturing equipment, we are beginning to see improved operating leverage throughout the organization. Overall, we continue to execute on our growth strategy in 2021. We are excited to build on our momentum from this quarter's results and are already seeing improved operating performance evidenced by continued expansion of our retail distribution network and production and manufacturing footprint.
In the beginning of Q2 of 2021, as world economies began to reopen from the COVID pandemic, the Company experienced severe bottlenecks in its supply chains in all product categories as we ramped up sales and inventory production. Raw materials for our Zoots edibles line and packaging for all products experienced a significant increase in lead times by as much as four times. While we continue to manage through this headwind, we saw slower sell-through in retail stores due to our less eco-friendly packaging, which is important to our more eco-conscious cannabis consumers in the Pacific Northwest markets, again slowing top-line revenue growth by as much as 17%. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, we are now in total production with newly designed eco-friendly packaging, and we expect to see an improvement to our sell-through in our retail partner stores, which should result in an immediate increase in top-line sales. The launch of our direct-to-consumer CBD site is delayed due to a certain ingredient for our NRG-CBD energy shot not being readily available. Our new projected launch date is September 15th, 2021. Additionally, the company continues to face challenges in securing labor in both our manufacturing and administrative job openings. As of this quarterly update there has been no material impact to our ability to meet our manufacturing demand, however, as sales continue to increase the Company will exceed its labor capacity as it relates to manufacturing output. The Company has taken immediate action to raise hourly pay rates to attract more talent which may have a negative impact on gross margin revenue.
In Oregon, the Company closed the acquisition of the "OPS" facility on June 16th, 2021, a fully licensed and equipped manufacturing facility in Estacada, Oregon, which now gives Ionic Brands complete operating control over the manufacturing and distribution of our products in the Oregon market. The acquisition of the Oregon facility will allow us to produce up to 3.4 million units per year, which is expected to increase annual revenues in the Oregon market to $12 million by mid-2023, with a projected 4% - 7% increase in gross margin revenue due to improved operating efficiencies. Our excitement and optimism remain strong as we broaden the horizon of IONIC BRANDS 2.0. Direct ownership of a license and state-of-the-art facility will provide a platform for our highly experienced team to propel sales of our portfolio of well-known products to new heights in the Oregon Cannabis Market.
Our partner, The Pass, who operates in the Massachusetts market, continues to work towards its goal of having Ionic Brands products on store shelves by the end of Q3. The Company has successfully launched The Pass's product line in the Washington market, extending Ionic Brands' product portfolio. We continue to pursue similar licensing agreements in other limited-license states.
Key Performance Indicators:

The Company realized consistent growth within its concentrates business line with 344,366 Ionic-branded units sold during Q2 of 2021 (an increase of 25%) compared to 276,298 branded units sold in Q1 of 2021; Furthermore, with the entry into the flower sales segment, through the acquisition of the Cowlitz County Cannabis (CCC) brand assets on March 8th, 2021, the license holder and the Company combined to market and sell 1,096,666 units of packaged flower. The total number of branded units sold in the second quarter was 1,441,032 (an increase of 422%) over the total number of branded units sold in Q1 2021 of 276,298, substantially increasing our overall brand exposure to the end-consumer in the northwest markets.

In the B2B wholesale business unit, the license holder and the Company combined to sell 4,999,422 units (grams) of biomass in Q2 of 2021, increasing 24% over Q1 2021 total units sold of 4,030,641. This strategic business unit provides a greater supply of raw materials at a lower cost, contributing to improved gross margins in our flower and concentrates segments while ensuring that the Company has a secure an adequate supply of raw materials for our manufacturing partner to make and deliver its concentrates and flower products efficiently to the market.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

The Company has provided certain non-IFRS financial measures including "Gross Margin" and Adjusted EBITDA. These non-IFRS financial measures do not have a standardized definition under IFRS, nor are they calculated or presented in accordance with IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Company defines "Gross Margin" as Gross divided by Revenue. The Company calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net income as reported adjusted to exclude the impact of the following items: fair value adjustment of sale of inventory, provision for income taxes, foreign exchange (gain)loss, change in fair value of investments, interest expense, share based compensation, depreciation and amortization, costs associated with public listing, impairment loss, loss on financial instruments and gain on sale of fixed assets.

The Company has provided these non-IFRS financial measures as supplemental information and in addition to the financial measures that are calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS. The Company believes that these supplemental non-IFRS financial measures provide a valuable additional measure to use when analyzing the operating performance of the business. As other companies may calculate these non-IFRS measures differently than the Company, these metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. These supplemental non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for or as an alternative to, and should only be considered in conjunction with, the IFRS financial measures presented herein.

Caution Regarding Cannabis Operations in the United States

Investors should note that there are significant legal restrictions and regulations that govern the cannabis industry in the United States. While legal in certain states, cannabis remains a Schedule I drug under the U.S. Controlled Substances Act, making it illegal under federal law in the United States to, among other things, cultivate, distribute or possess cannabis. Financial transactions involving proceeds generated by, or intended to promote, cannabis-related business activities in the United States may form the basis for prosecution under applicable U.S. federal money laundering legislation. Investors should carefully read the risk factors and disclosures contained in the Company's Management Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") for the year ended December 31, 2020 and other disclosure documents available on the Company's profile at www.sedar.com.

Caution Regarding Cannabis Operations in Washington State

Holders of marijuana licenses in Washington are subject to significant regulation. Such regulation creates a number of risks unique to such holders, especially when compared to the holders of marijuana licenses in other U.S. states. In addition, the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board ("LCB") has historically taken an aggressive approach to enforcing the applicable regulations. Washington law specifically prohibits out-of-state ownership or control of marijuana licenses and requires that any person or entity who provides financing to the holder of a marijuana license be subject to rigorous scrutiny. These laws significantly limit how out-of-state companies and non-licensed companies may transact with marijuana licensees. What may appear to be a minor violation may result in irreparable harm as the LCB has cancelled marijuana licenses as a punishment for a first offense of a regulatory violation related to ownership and control. While consulting agreements, service arrangements, and intellectual property agreements are generally permissible and appear to be acceptable to the LCB, a licensee who enters into such transactions with an out-of-state or non-licensed company runs the risk of the licensee's business being suddenly terminated if the LCB perceives any concern about ownership and control of the licensee. Investors in the Company must be aware that the Company faces the risk of total business loss if a Washington licensee the Company relies upon has its license cancelled. There is significant risk and uncertainty regarding an investment in the Company.

FROM JOHN P GORST CEO
Hello 2021, and good morning to our value shareholders. I am excited for IBC this year, and I hope you are as well. While we still have so much work to do, our entire management team is excited to start a new year building Ionic 2.0. While there are still many challenges ahead with COVID even rearing its ugly head, our team feels more confident than ever in our future. Last year was very unkind to us all. Last year was a year to recalibrate the company; this year, we are back to building the company and its brands.

Many of you are asking about bringing more "eyeballs" to the stock, which we will be doing when we have the proper capital. As I have mentioned in another post, we will get started on this in quarter one; however, you as shareholders can also talk about the company by posting on message boards, investor communities and responding to cannabis articles with your comments about IBC.

Thank you for standing by us; we knew that it was challenging for you all, - Sincerely John P. Gorst

Ionic Brands Corp. Signs Letter Of Intent For The Purchase Of Assets From The Extraction Lab (EXA)
ACCESSWIRE - Mon Jan 4, 4:00AM CST
TACOMA, WA / ACCESSWIRE / January 4, 2021 / IONIC BRANDS CORP. (CNSX:IONC.CN)(OTCPINK:IONKF)(FRA:1B3) ("IONIC BRANDS" or the "Company"), a regional manufacturer of innovative cannabis edibles and concentrate extract products, is pleased to announce that it has executed a Letter of Intent ("LOI") to acquire assets of Peace, Love and Elixirs, LLC. dba The Extraction Artists ("EXA"), which includes three key licenses - manufacturing, edible license designation and a hemp processing license. EXA crafts high quality concentrates and isolates using pharmaceutical grade best practices to provide the cleanest, purist experience for the consumer. EXA has spent most of its operational history in servicing the retail market directly by providing white labelling services to some of the biggest retail chains in the Oregon market.

The Company entered into an LOI to acquire EXA on December 18, 2020. Under the terms of the LOI, the companies will immediately move to a Definitive Agreement and have targeted a closing date of mid-February 2021.

Under the terms of the LOI, the Company will pay USD $600,000 to EXA at closing. Additional payment of cash and stock will be determined based on definitive documentation and payable at closing of the transaction.

Ionic Brands Chairman and CEO John P. Gorst commented, "The purchase of EXA is a pivotal and exciting step for Ionic Brands, as we will now be able to control our destiny in the still emerging market of Oregon. Additionally, owning multiple licenses and operating out of the EXA facility will allow Ionic Brands to add our popular and premium consumables brand ZOOTS to the existing portfolio of products currently offered in Oregon."

Frank Gill, CEO of EXA was quoted; "Ionic Brands has been a pleasure to work with. We built this business with blood, sweat and tears and look forward to working with them to close a mutually beneficial transaction that will allow Ionic Brands to continue and prosper in the Oregon Market. I will do everything I can do to make this transition smooth and successful." EXA is confident in Ionic Brands and believes they will continue where EXA leaves off.

Lobe Sciences Announces CAD$23,000,000 Sale Of Cowlitz Cannabis Option To Ionic Brands Corp.
Newsfile Corp - 42 minutes ago
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 1, 2020) - Lobe Sciences Ltd. (CNSX:LOBE.CN) (OTCPink:GTSIF) (" Lobe " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce that it has received and signed a non-binding letter of intent dated November 30, 2020 with IONIC Brands Corp. (" Ionic ") for the proposed sale to Ionic of certain assets held by Lobe related to Cowlitz County Cannabis Cultivation Inc. (" Cowlitz ") (the " Transaction "). Cowlitz is one of the top five licensed cannabis producers/processors located in Washington State.

The assets being sold to Ionic may include, but are not limited to, the assignment of all property leases relating exclusively to Cowlitz's business, the assignment of Lobe's option agreement to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Cowlitz, and the assignment of other contracts and rights related exclusively to Cowlitz including service contracts and equipment leases (the " Assets ").

The Transaction is subject to several closing conditions, including but not limited to: (i) satisfactory due diligence by both Ionic and Lobe; (ii) completion of a definitive agreement with binding terms and conditions for the Transaction, including finalization of the specific Assets that will be sold and certain Cowlitz assets that may be retained by Lobe; (iii) all respective directors and officers of Lobe and Ionic entering into support agreements for the Transaction; (iv) approval by the boards of directors of both Lobe and Ionic; (v) the completion of a share consolidation by Ionic on a minimum of one new Ionic common share for every four and a half (4.5) old Ionic common shares (the " Ionic Consolidation "); (vi) the conversion of all Ionic debentures (with principal amount of approximately CAD$14.7 million) into a secured equity or a similar instrument (" Debt Conversion "); (vii) completion of a concurrent financing by Ionic for gross proceeds of at least US$2 million (the " Ionic Concurrent Financing "); (viii) Ionic having all cease trade orders issued against it lifted (2) ; (ix) Ionic applying to the CSE for requalification and qualifying for listing and resumption of trading (2) ; and (x) the receipt of all required shareholder and regulatory approvals, including the approval of the CSE. Following the closing of the Transaction, Ionic's board of directors is expected to be comprised of five (5) members and Lobe will have the right to appoint two (2) directors to the Ionic board


The sale price for the Assets shall be a minimum of CAD$23 million, payable through the issuance of Ionic post-consolidation common shares (being approximately 49% of Ionic's estimated $47 million capitalization post-restructuring (after giving effect to the Ionic Consolidation and Debt Conversion)), prior to giving effect to the Ionic Concurrent Financing. Following the closing of the Transaction, it is expected that the Lobe will own approximately 49% of Ionic's common shares, on a post-consolidation and pre-Ionic Concurrent Financing basis. Ionic is expected to have a minimum total capitalization valuation of CAD$47 million, pre-Ionic Concurrent Financing.

As previously announced, Lobe has been pursuing strategic alternatives for Cowlitz, aimed at maximizing its value to the Company. Cowlitz reported over US$14.6 million in gross sales revenues for the nine month period ended September 30, 2020, according to data provided on reports to the Washington State Department of Revenues ( 1 ) . Lobe generates revenues through licensing and leasing agreements in place with Cowlitz. Ionic is listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange ( 2) (the " CSE ") (CNSX:IONC.CN) and is a growing US-based cannabis company that focuses on premium cannabis products with current operations in Washington and Oregon. Ionic has completed a number of strategic synergistic acquisitions since 2019 aimed at growing revenues as a multi-state operator, and increasing their overall product lines and intellectual property portfolio. Ionic's strategy has been focused on building a regionalized multistate operation of cannabis brands in the Pacific Northwest markets with an eye to expansion into other recreational markets and aggressive national expansion.

John Gorst, CEO of Ionic said, "We are excited about this opportunity to expand our presence in Washington State. Cowlitz has tremendous brand presence and following in Washington State, which we feel is a natural fit, complementing our existing operations. The combination will make us one of the largest premier cannabis companies in the Pacific Northwest markets. The acquisition of the Cowlitz Assets will represent a complimentary synergistic acquisition that achieves our goal of operational expansion and growth of our product portfolio."

"The proposed transaction with Ionic is accretive to both parties, successfully meets our M&A initiatives and keeps Lobe active in the cannabis and overall transformation psychedelic medicine space," states Tom Baird, CEO of Lobe. "The Transaction provides Lobe with significant ownership and board presence in Ionic. With its already significant operations in Washington State and Oregon, we feel Ionic's proposed product expansion initiatives together with the addition of the Cowlitz Assets can lead to aggressive growth."

(IONC.CN)(OTC PINK:IONKF)(FRA:1B3) ("IONIC BRANDS" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has acquired selected assets of WW Agriculture, more specifically the Dabulous economy brand of infused products.

The Company originally entered into a Letter of Intent ("LOI") to acquire WW Agriculture on June 20, 2018. Under the terms of the LOI, the Company's licensed partner, Ionic Washington, began to provide co-manufacturing services including but not limited to the sales and manufacturing of a newly developed brand called Dabulous extracts. While the Company was unable to complete the acquisition of WW Agriculture due to economic challenges in 2019, we continued to co-manufacture and sell the Dabulous products. Since July 2018, the Company has positioned the Dabulous brand as its economy extract brand allowing the Company to service not only the premium consumer segment of the market but the critical economy segment. The Company now has a broader scope of products to capture a more significant share of retail shelf space in the Washington market. The Company will be launching the Dabulous product line in the Oregon market in August 2020. The Company sold 198,036 units and generated $1,759,208 in sales in 2019 from the Dabulous brand.

Full Consideration paid and terms of the Omnibus agreement and bill of sale were as follows:
The Company assumed a note payable with a term of 34 months in the amount of US$195,000, with a cash payment of US$595,000.00.

Ionic Brands Chairman and CEO John P. Gorst commented that, " while we will always remain true to our core brand strategy of premium cannabis products with the Ionic and Zoots brands, we recognized in early 2019 the value of providing a broader range of products priced for a more cost-conscious consumer was important to grow revenue. We are excited about the potential growth of this particular consumer segment."
