Sharing Services Global Corp. (SHRG) and Subsidiary Champion Social Selling Approach with the Happy Co.

  • Social selling is when salespeople use social media to find and engage with new prospects.
  • SHRG is dedicated to being a leader in the direct-sales arena.
  • Sharing Services is committed to staying ahead of marketplace trends, fulfilling needs, consistently increasing shareholder value.
Social selling is the latest business model in the direct-sales world, and the strategy has been proven to increase company revenue by 16% (https://ibn.fm/hrP6O). Sharing Services Global (OTCQB: SHRG) and its primary subsidiary Elevacity Holdings LLC. are leveraging a modern take on the traditional approach to reach out to a growing number of consumers as well as potential business partners. Calling social selling “sales 2.0,” a recent article noted that “social selling is when salespeople use social media to find and engage with new prospects. Salespeople use social media to provide value to prospects by answering open-ended questions, responding to comments and sharing content throughout the buying process — from awareness to consideration, until a prospect is ready to buy.” The same article reported that “sales reps who use social selling find on average 45% more opportunities. In addition, social selling helps best-in-class companies achieve a 16% gain in year-over-year revenue. That’s four times better than companies that don’t use social selling.” SHRG has always been dedicated to being a leader in the direct-sales arena, working to be nimble and adaptable in order to offer its sales force the most compelling, effective support available. In fact, one of the company’s principles is speed. “Speed is important,” the corporate website states. “The speed of change requires timely decisions. Otherwise we will watch others who complete their research and make their decisions faster.” Sharing Services is committed to always staying ahead of marketplace trends, fulfilling needs, creating sustainable enterprise growth and consistently increasing shareholder value. This commitment is reflected in the Happy Co., the new brand identity of SHRG’s wholly owned subsidiaries Elevacity Holdings LLC and Elevacity U.S. LLC. (https://ibn.fm/05p2J). One of the fastest-growing companies in the social-marketing and direct-selling arenas, the Happy Co. has become the category creator for Happy Coffee and a recognized leader in natural nootropics. The Happy Co. has created a business model to make happiness happen for everyone involved with the company (https://ibn.fm/GN0Cq), and this model includes functional beverages, capsules, patches and creams. Each product is deliberately designed and formulated to elevate mood, boost energy, reduce stress, enhance sleep, increase muscles, minimize fat, tighten skin and help consumers look, feel and perform like a younger person. Sharing Services Global Corporation is a publicly traded diversified company dedicated to maximizing shareholder value through the acquisition and development of innovative companies, products and technologies. The Sharing Services combined platform leverages the capabilities and expertise of various companies that market and sell products direct to the consumer. Its primary division includes Elevacity U.S., LLC, a sales and marketing company based on utilization of independent contractors as the sales force.

Clean Power Capital Corp. (NEO: MOVE) (FWB: 2K6A) (OTC: MOTNF) Shareholders Sustain Energy Mission, Welcome New CEO

  • British Columbia-based investment holding company Clean Power Capital Corp. recently held its annual general and special meetings of shareholders
  • Shareholders voted to sustain the company’s new investment directive, which includes focusing on renewable power initiatives and bio-medical plus naturopathic sectors
  • Clean Power’s CEO announced his resignation following the meeting and he will be succeeded by majority-owned investee PowerTap Hydrogen Fueling Corp.’s CEO
  • The company has also launched two new marketing initiatives to increase its investment profile with the general public
  • PowerTap appointed a former Shell Oil Products US executive to its advisory board

Holding company Clean Power Capital (NEO: MOVE) (FWB: 2K6A) (OTC: MOTNF) charted a new course amid last year’s pandemic-depressed months, turning its stated mission to the renewable energy sector as an area of investment focus and placing special emphasis on its majority equity-owned investee PowerTap Hydrogen Fueling Corp. On Monday, March 15, the company held its Annual General and Special Meeting at which shareholders approved the company’s amended and restated investment policy.

Following the meeting, Clean Power CEO Joel Dumaresq stepped down from his position with the company but will continue to function as Clean Power’s chief financial officer on an interim basis. Raghunath (Raghu) Kilambi, the CEO and CFO of PowerTap Hydrogen, was named the new CEO and president of Clean Power in Dumaresq’s place (https://ibn.fm/IscOe). Kilambi continues to function as PowerTap’s CEO as well.

PowerTap has seen the strength of its platform rise under Kilambi’s leadership in recent months, particularly through agreements that have brought the powerhouse Andretti Group into partnership with the company for fuel station sites, marketing and board leadership (https://ibn.fm/65EHI).

Kilambi has over 25 years of global business experience in public and private investments, building businesses and creating shareholder value. He has raised more than $1 billion of equity and debt capital for private and public companies in the United States and Canada, and has been involved in many M&A acquisitions and exits. His experience with investments in emerging technologies will be an asset for Clean Power as it continues to seek additional investment opportunities under its new mission statement.

That investment policy specifically states the company will focus on renewable energy, which may include, without limitation, hydrogen & fuel cell technologies, wind power, solar power and geothermal power; and bio-medical, pharmaceutical, and naturopathic sectors, which may include medical or recreational cannabis.

Clean Power has also announced a pair of decisions to advance its investment profile among the public. The company entered into an investor relations advisory services agreement on March 10 with 1830012 Ontario Limited, operating as Circadian Group to create a customized positive investment image and communicate that image to the investment community. In addition, the company retained Mountain Capital Corp. on March 8 to provide strategic digital media services, as well as marketing and data analytics services, for a three-month period, according to the annual meeting news release.

PowerTap also announced development of its advisory board through the appointment of David Bray, former corporate officer/general manager of Shell Oil Products US. Bray’s company, Bray Retail Consulting, LLC will also join PowerTap in a consulting role under an exclusive one-year assignment.

The consultancy will focus on critical product development and services to accelerate the deployment of PowerTap’s proprietary modular 1,250 kg hydrogen production and dispensing technology as part of a planned hydrogen fueling station network launching in California with the Andretti Group’s assistance. The company will then use Andretti’s connections to build the network into other parts of the country.

Bray is a seasoned Shell executive whose more than 30 years in the industry included serving as the general manager of several groups at Shell, including Strategy/Business Development, Fuels and Marketing, and Americas Aviation.

“Regarding hydrogen, we are at the starting line in terms of the growth opportunity for its use as a transportation fuel. I believe that hydrogen will play a critical role in meeting the energy needs of the Americas going forward,” he stated.

Ideanomics Inc. (NASDAQ: IDEX) Capitalizing on Growing Commercial EV and Real Estate Segments

  • The increased driving range and expansion of charging outlets are expected to trigger widespread adoption of EVs, including commercial EVs
  • The commercial EV segment is projected to grow at a 41.1% CAGR from 2020-2028 and is likely to influence the purchase of other types of EVs, further benefiting Ideanomics’ Mobility division
  • Ideanomics Capital division, through wholly owned subsidiary Timios, is set to benefit from the pandemic-driven growth currently being witnessed in the housing market

The global electric commercial vehicle market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 41.1% from 2020 to 2028, reaching a little over 2 million units in sales on the back of advancements in battery technology, electrification of public transportation fleets and stricter government regulations on pollution, per a Research and Markets forecast (https://ibn.fm/AZ0TM).

Similarly, a 2020 Deloitte article (https://ibn.fm/UAh8f) noted that the removal of two of the biggest barriers for consumers, namely driving range and the lack of charging infrastructure over the next few years, portends good tidings for the electric vehicle (“EV”) industry. The article further observed that the proliferation of commercial EVs (lorries, trucks and vans) and mass transit vehicles (buses) would instill even more confidence in consumers as to the reliability of EVs, influencing them to purchase the other types of EVs.

Based on these predictions, Ideanomics (NASDAQ: IDEX) is positioned favorably, given its Ideanomics Mobility division is focused on the EV market. This division comprises over five companies, including Medici Motor Works, which operates in the electric commercial vehicle segment, offering zero-emission trucks, vans and buses. Others are Mobile Energy Global (“MEG”), Wireless Advanced Vehicle Electrification (“WAVE”), Treeletrik, Energica, Solectrac and Silk EV.

“2020 was the year for passenger EV… But 2021 is the year that the commercial (‘EVs’) start to become mainstream; this is when companies like Ideanomics and others are going to shine,” stated Ideanomics CEO Alf Poor in a presentation at the 23rd Annual Needham Growth Conference (https://ibn.fm/H74nP) earlier this year. Alf went on to quote Bloomberg New Energy Finance (“BNEF”), which estimates that global commercial EV sales will reach 1.2 million units in 2023.

Ideanomics, which wholly owns Medici Motor Works, is set to capitalize on this expected growth in demand, which is projected to remain consistent through 2040, per BNEF’s long-term electric vehicle outlook. By 2040, EVs will account for 67% of all public buses and 24% of all light commercial vehicles. At the same time, Ideanomics’ Treeletrik and Energica subsidiaries, manufacturers of two-wheelers, will also benefit as 47% of all motorbikes sold in 2040 will be electric (https://ibn.fm/VXfmf).

The future also holds great promise for IDEX’s second division, Ideanomics Capital, which focuses on providing disruptive fintech solutions covering a broad range of financial services. The division is made up of five companies: Timios, DBOT, Liquefy, Intelligenta and Technology Metals Market (“TM2”). In his presentation, Alf singled out Timios, praising its data-driven approach to closing more property refinancing and purchasing within the broader real estate sector.

But, why Timios? What has made real estate stand out? The housing market is currently “in a frenzy like no other since the 2008 crisis”, occasioned by higher demand for housing than there is supply (https://ibn.fm/eXDbm). The pandemic is credited for this phenomenon because some companies relocated at the height of the outbreak, causing surges in demand for housing in certain cities. Further, the work-from-home policy encouraged employees to upgrade their homes, either through renovations or by purchasing new homes, with the latter contributing to the surge in demand (https://ibn.fm/Q6can).

Remarkably, in his presentation, Alf had foreseen this imminent vibrancy of the housing market, which, as he had observed, would greatly favor Timios. “Companies like Timios can make a lot of money. These guys made $3 million EBITDA in December alone. So, we’re going to expect big things from them,” Alf added. Over the coming period, Ideanomics plans to inject more capital into Timios to help it grow more efficiently.

Imagin Medical Inc. (CSE: IME) (OTCQB: IMEXF) Technology, will Potentially Reduce High Bladder Cancer Recurrence Rates

  • Approximately 50% of patients who have bladder cancer will see a recurrence of the condition – often due to poor margin visibility
  • White light has been the standard procedure during cystoscopies, but is only beneficial if tumors protrude from the bladder wall
  • Blue light cystoscopies address this issue, increasing the odds of removing more cancerous cells and reducing the recurrence of the cancer
  • The i/Blue Imaging System(TM) improves surgical technique by combining both white and blue light capabilities on one screen without the necessity of switching between two images
  • Imagin Medical Inc. is currently moving toward commercializing the system, expecting to complete the product in 2022

Approximately 50% of patients who suffer from non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer will relapse. Even with the rates of local recurrence after definitive therapy improving, research indicates that management of the disease remains a challenge. Urothelial carcinoma, the most common type of bladder cancer, continues to exhibit high rates of recurrence (https://ibn.fm/4HXcP).

The primary treatment for recurrence focuses on cytology, stage, and clinical characteristics. A particular area of interest is identification and causes/predictors of urothelial carcinoma recurrence. Differentiating management of recurrent carcinoma from treatment of primary carcinoma has generated limited progress, but the research indicates that organ-conserving and endoscopic therapies may be effective, especially by identifying patients who are facing a higher risk of early recurrence.

This is where technologies such as Imagin Medical’s (CSE: IME) (OTCQB: IMEXF) i/Blue Imaging System(TM) may prove effective by enhancing tumor visualization and resection, and potentially lowering recurrence rates as a result.

Focused on establishing a new standard of care in the visualization of cancer during minimally invasive procedures, Imagin Medical’s primary focus is bladder cancer, the sixth most prevalent cancer in the U.S. and the third most common on men. Due to its high recurrence rate, patients who have had bladder cancer require years of follow-up testing and procedures to catch recurrence early, making it one of the most expensive cancers to treat (https://ibn.fm/tus7H).

The conventional method used to visualize bladder cancer during surgical procedures is called a cystoscopy. Cystoscopies allow medical providers to see inside the bladder using a thin, lighted, flexible tube called a cystoscope, which uses white light to illuminate the area. White light has been the standard of care for decades and is used by more than 90% of the cystoscopy procedures. While white light effectively shows the landscape of the bladder, it is not effective in visualizing all cancerous tissue that may be present in the bladder, only tumors that protrude above the surface.

Since 2010, the use of blue light paired with a reactive contrast agent during cystoscopies has been expanding as a promising new visualization method that highlights cancerous cells, including margins and flat tumors along the bladder wall. The problem with using blue light during cystoscopies is that the images are not in real time, requiring surgeons to switch back and forth, during the intervention, between the real-time white light image and the blue light image that highlights the cancer.

Imagin’s i/Blue Imaging System aims to address these shortcomings. Combining the effectiveness of blue light cystoscopy with proprietary technology, the i/Blue Imaging System will improve surgical technique by displaying both white and blue light images simultaneously side-by-side in real time on one monitor. This innovation will enable the surgeon to view cancerous cells and their margins in context for more complete removal eliminate the need to switch back and forth to resect the cancer.

Imagin is currently moving toward commercialization of its technology, with the Food and Drug Administration approval process underway. The company is working with Maine-based Lighthouse Imaging, an FDA registered and ISO 13485:2016 certified manufacturer, to finalize the system design for manufacture. The product is on track for completion in 2022 (https://ibn.fm/TKiU1).

Once the goal of changing bladder cancer visualization has been realized, Imagin will build on the i/Blue Imaging System’s technology to facilitate other minimally invasive procedures, including laparoscopic, colorectal, and thoracic that use a variety of contrast dye agents and illumination sources. Imagin is working to improve upon past technology, create better patient outcomes, and incur fewer costs in the process.

RYAH Group Inc. (CSE: RYAH) Releases “April 2021 Patients Patterns in New York Report” to Provide Data-Driven Insights Amid Latest Legislation Change

  • RYAH has released April 2021 Patients Patterns in New York Report to bring invaluable data-driven insights within the plant-based health industry amid recent recreational cannabis legislation change in this state.
  • The company leveraged data from 4,387 New York patients within the RYAH Data ecosystem to discover New York-based patients’ profiles, including their preferences and medical reasons for use.
  • As an authority in dose-control technology for plant-based medicine, RYAH appears well placed to capitalize on growing market opportunities.

RYAH Group (CSE: RYAH) (formerly known as Prime Blockchain Inc.) has announced the release of its “April 2021 Patients Patterns in New York Report,” covering data generated by 4,387 patients from New York who logged their sessions within the RYAH Data ecosystem between January 1, 2018, and April 15, 2021 (https://ibn.fm/ScF8T). As an authority within the dose-control technology for plant-based medicine, RYAH leverages access to a wealth of data helping open up new knowledge-enabled possibilities within the health industry. The newly published report is the latest such initiative — especially invaluable since the recent legislative approval of recreational cannabis in March 2021.

Home to one of the wealthiest cities in the world, New York state accounts for 8% of US GDP. It is expected to become one of the largest US plant markets, with recreational cannabis sales potentially reaching $1.2 billion by 2023 and up to $4.2 billion by 2027. With these market expectations, it is of critical importance to understand who a New York-based patient is, what their preferences are, and what medical conditions they use cannabis for.

As a data analytics health care company collecting anonymized data generated by patients, RYAH is ideally placed to answer these questions. The Company is committed to developing cutting-edge technology to generate powerful analytics by combining dosing data with lab test information and patient feedback to create a personalized self-optimizing experience.

The report gives invaluable insights into the New York medical cannabis space, comparing it to the national average. It reveals that these patients are more likely to be male (65.5%) than patients at the national level (54.8%) while they have slightly less experience with the plant and use it less frequently. For example, 7% of patients from New York use it daily, compared to the national average of 8.4%. On the other hand, and in line with national averages, New York patients prefer cultivars with higher THC content or a CBD-rich profile. More sessions from New York-based patients were logged on the RYAH platform for anxiety, social anxiety disorder, and ADHD than patients from other parts of the country. RYAH Data ecosystem also reveals that conditions such as stress and depression are more prevalent in New York patients.

After launching in a limited capacity in 2016, New York State’s medical cannabis program served more than 143,000 patients. In March 2021, the state approved the legislation covering recreational cannabis, becoming the 15th state to legalize recreational use (https://ibn.fm/rFWL5). Several amendments are introduced to improve access to medical cannabis, covering a wide range of qualifying conditions, including cancer, HIV, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, epilepsy, inflammatory bowel disease, neuropathy, Huntington’s disease, PSTD and chronic pain. As a go-to provider of data analytics expertise for the plant-based medical industry, RYAH appears ideally placed to capitalize on the growing market opportunity as New York positions itself to become one of the nation’s largest markets of legal cannabis and the plant-based legislation continues to evolve nationwide.

Cybin Inc. (NEO: CYBN) (OTCQB: CLXPF) Maintains Buy Rating in Recent Equity Update

  • April analyst reports all point to a bright future for Cybin
  • “CYBN is a true multi-molecule company that’s not being reflected in its valuation,” reports Stifel
  • “With a relatively small 5% penetration, Cybin could achieve ~$8B in sales in the U.S. and EU5 combined,” notes Roth

A series of recent analyst reports bodes well for Cybin (NEO: CYBN) (OTCQB: CLXPF), a leading biotech company focused on progressing psychedelic therapeutics. April reports from Canaccord Genuity equity research company, Stifel GMP (https://ibn.fm/aQ9af) and Roth Capital Partners (https://ibn.fm/YkBNb) all categorize Cybin as a buy, with Stifel increasing its price target from $5 to $11, Roth noting a $10 per share price target, and Canaccord coming in at $8.

In its report increasing Cybin’s price target, Stifel noted that “CYBN is a true multi-molecule company that’s not being reflected in its valuation.” The report further observed, “CYBN has been progressing rapidly along its path of developing a pipeline of novel psychedelic molecules, transforming the company from a single molecule strategy to a more diversified one with stronger IP opportunities.”

The report noted that the company’s proprietary CYB003, a novel 2nd-generation tryptamine, has undergone proof-of-concept studies and that the company is targeting alcohol use disorder, a relapsing disease with high unmet needs, a large addressable market and low competition. “We believe CYBN’s shares have a direct pathway for over ~3.5x upside near term as neither its primary candidate nor its first novel candidate — expected to enter clinical trials in 2021 — is fully accounted for in its valuation, offering investors with an attractive entry point,” the analysis concluded.

As a basis for initiating coverage of Cybin, the Roth analysis reported the following: “Overlooked by the pharmaceutical industry, Cybin found, in our opinion, ingenious ways to improve potency and delivery of psychedelic drugs by reformulation and by exploring deuterated analogues. Along the way the company created novel intellectual property to fend off competition.

According to a recent study by Imperial College London, psilocybin may actually be superior to an SSRI [selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor], escitalopram, in patients suffering from major depressive disorder,” the report continued. “However, each psilocybin treatment session may last 6-8 hours, when administered orally. Cybin’s sublingual formulation bypasses the stomach, as the drug enters the bloodstream through the oral mucosa for faster onset of action. . . . TRD (treatment resistant depression) impacts over 1% of the population, unfortunately. With a relatively small 5% penetration, Cybin could achieve ~$8B in sales in the U.S. and EU5 combined, according to our calculation.”

In its report, Canaccord noted that an academic group from Imperial College London published long-awaited results from its Psilodep-RCT study in the “New England Journal of Medicine.” The study analyzed the treatment of patients with long-standing, moderate-to-severe major depressive disorder (“MDD”) over a six-week period.

“The results did not hit on the primary endpoint but were in favor of psilocybin on the primary and every secondary outcome measure,” the analysis noted. “We view the results from this relatively small trial as encouraging for the potential use of psilocybin in the depression setting. We also believe the results support the investigation of psilocybin in larger, multi-center trials, which CYBN eventually expects to pursue.”

An earlier Canaccord Genuity report noted that Cybin is using a proprietary drug discovery platform combined with novel delivery and formulation technologies to develop innovative psychedelic therapeutics to treat psychiatric disorders. After hosting several investor meetings with Cybin executives, Canaccord reported that “investor focus was on the upcoming Phase 2 program for [Cybin’s] lead product, CYB001, which is a sublingual film formulation of psilocybin to treat major depressive disorder (“MDD”). CYBN expects to start a Phase 2a trial in Jamaica (West Indies). The company then expects to file an investigational drug (“IND”) application and start a Phase 2b trial, which will include US sites, soon after.” Observing that “all eyes are on the Phase 2a data,” Canaccord called CYB001 a near-term catalyst for CYBN.

Canaccord also reported that investors are focused on the evolving intellectual property (“IP”) situation around psilocybin and that CYBN intends to uplist to a major US exchange shortly. “So we note this is a very interesting period for CYBN both as a company and as a stock, and we are reiterating our BUY rating,” the report concluded.

Cybin Corp., a leading biotech company focused on progressing psychedelic therapeutics, is on a mission to revolutionize mental health care. The company is focused on progressing psychedelic therapeutics by utilizing proprietary drug- discovery platforms, innovative drug-delivery systems, novel formulation approaches and treatment regimens for psychiatric disorders.

  • Leasing agreements provide a combined 28,483 square feet of space
  • Additional space allows company to work towards several long-term business objectives
  • Company eyeing R&D, in-house manufacturing, and formation of company divisions created to support strategic expansion plans
With its focus on continued growth and innovation, TAAT(TM) Global Alternatives (CSE: TAAT) (OTCQX: TOBAF) (FRANKFURT: 2TP2) recently signed lease agreements for two facilities in Las Vegas; the buildings are located in the Hughes Airport Center business park, which is conveniently located near the McCarran International Airport (https://ibn.fm/CApMM). In the announcement, TAAT noted that the agreements provide a combined 28,483 square feet of space, which the company intends to use for research and development, manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution management. The facilities will also provide office space for executives’ operational staff as well as ample room for conferences and other TAAT events. “As the company begins to scale its market presence in 2021 following the recent announcement of a CAD $149,000 purchase order intended for distribution in the United Kingdom and Ireland, as well as sustained operations in Ohio and online across the United States through e-commerce, TAAT is proactively assembling an expanded corporate infrastructure to facilitate anticipated growth,” the announcement stated. “The company believes that with these facilities at its disposal, it will be better positioned to work towards several of its long-term business objectives.” Those objectives include R&D, in-house manufacturing, a contact center and customer experience management center, as well as the formation of company divisions created to support the company’s strategic expansion plans. The new facilities provide space for internal labs dedicated to evaluating future iterations of the company’s flagship product, TAAT(TM), as well as additional products that may be developed. In addition, the 250% increase in available space will allow the company to significantly grow its manufacturing process. Currently the company produces enough material for an estimated 680,000 10-pack cartons of TAAT a year; the 250% increase in available space provides room for significant production capability growth. Other plans include establishing an internal contact center for current and prospective customers to reach out to TAAT, as well as global distribution division that would monitor distribution channels, prioritize shipment dispatching, gather market and supply chain intelligence, and work directly with warehouse personnel to optimize distribution operations. TAAT also anticipates needing office space for its growing number of employees, many working in new operational divisions that could include sales, marketing, digital content production, social media, event management and legal. The lease agreements also provide conference and meeting spaces to enable internal collaboration as well as for hosting meetings with clients, vendors, and service providers. TAAT identified the Hughes Airport Center as an ideal location for the growing company because of its close proximity to the airport, which is the eighth busiest airport in the country, as well as I-15 and I-215, which provide easy access for transport of goods. TAAT Lifestyle and Wellness has developed TAAT, a tobacco-free and nicotine-free alternative to traditional cigarettes available in Original, Smooth and Menthol varieties. TAAT’s base material is Beyond Tobacco(TM), a proprietary blend that undergoes a patent-pending refinement technique causing its scent and taste to resemble tobacco. Under executive leadership with Big Tobacco pedigree, TAAT was launched first in the United States in Q4 2020 as the company seeks to position itself in the $814 billion global tobacco industry.

ISW Holdings Inc.’s (ISWH) 2020 Financial Performance, 2021 Revenues to Triple Driven by Its Cryptocurrency Segment

  • ISW Holdings announces financial performance for 2020, with telehealth reporting 69% revenue and 276% asset growth
  • Company expects best yet to come with 2021 revenues at least tripling 2020 topline performance as crypto mining business starts to yield results
  • ISWH looks ahead to expansion of crypto presence, uplisting on OTCQB
Despite pandemic-related challenges, 2020 was the year of dramatic transformation for ISW Holdings (OTC: ISWH), leading to much bigger expectations in 2021. The global brand management company, which has strategically invested in telehealth and cryptocurrency mining, has issued updates on 2020 financial performance and business plans for the quarters ahead (https://ibn.fm/zzBXV). Over the past two years, the company demonstrated steady growth, driven mainly by its telehealth and home healthcare division investments. ISWH believes this success is only the beginning, and the best is yet to come as this financial data predates the launch of its cryptocurrency mining and mining equipment segment. ISWH believes the revenue growth is set to continue as returns on investments in its cryptocurrency mining and mining equipment begin to reflect in 2021. More specifically, the company expects full-year 2021 revenues to at least triple 2020 topline performance (https://ibn.fm/chK1Z). Financial highlights for the year ended Dec. 31, 2020, demonstrate year-over-year gross revenues growth of 69% for the company’s telehealth joint venture, Paradigm Home Health, where ISW Holdings earns 50% of the net profit or loss. Telehealth business line provides robust and steady cash flows for the company while its mining segment gets up to full speed. With multiple orders of new miners available immediately and a batch of new ones that will be manufactured and ready to ship in August, ISWH appears poised to increase the mining capacity and capitalize on the current market environment. It appears that ISWH will not stop there as the company is building its presence in a mining project in Georgia with at least a $500–700k per month opportunity from this expansion. The current cryptocurrency market is on the upswing as investor interest in digital currencies was surging over the recent months. Crypto mining is an essential part of a cryptocurrency ecosystem as miners keep the blockchain secured and trustworthy as they validate new transactions and record them on the global ledger blockchain through millions of computers worldwide. The global mining hardware market is expected to increase by $2.8 billion during 2020–2024, growing at a CAGR of 7% during the period (https://ibn.fm/JppJJ). At the end of last year, ISWH committed to an anti-dilution initiative announcing negotiations with noteholders to protect the value of its common stock. As of this month, the company has eliminated more than $3.4 million (94%) of outstanding convertible debt, believing that this move not only removes shareholders dilution risk but also boosts its ability to attract top talent and execute on new partnership and acquisition opportunities (https://ibn.fm/Ai28P). ISW Holdings appears to have big plans for 2021. With several minor steps remaining in the process of uplisting on the OTCQB, plans are on track for its public market debut. “We are at the bottom of the hockey stick as far as growth potential, with a clean bill of health on the balance sheet and major new non-dilutive funding providing us with a strong capital foundation to continue aggressive expansion in cryptocurrency mining and mining equipment,” said ISW Holdings president and chairman Alonzo Pierce.
