• ENDV has developed a viable pain-control solution for those seeking alternatives to highly addictive opioids
• The company’s flagship product is an FDA-cleared, easy-to-place, noninvasive device that delivers pulsed electromagnetic frequencies to targeted area
• In one study, patients treated with Endonovo technology reported a decrease in pain medication by nearly threefold

Amid mounting concern about the alarming opioid-addiction crisis, Endonovo Therapeutics Inc. (OTCQB: ENDV) offers one of the few bright spots on the horizon. Endonovo is the commercial-stage developer of noninvasive Electroceutical(TM) Therapeutic devices designed to target patient pain and inflammation, a viable pain-control solution for those desperately seeking options other than highly addictive drugs.

The crisis is real. The National Institute on Drug Abuse reports that 21% to 29% of patients prescribed opioids for chronic pain misuse them, and more than 130 people in the United States die every day after overdosing on opioids (http://ibn.fm/92SUO). The economic burden of the crisis is also heavy, with prescription opioid misuse alone in the United States totaling $78.5 billion annually including the costs of health care, lost productivity, addiction treatment and criminal justice involvement.

Endonovo provides an alternative. The company’s flagship product, SofPulse(R) Electroceutical(TM) Therapy is an FDA-cleared, easy-to-place, noninvasive device that delivers targeted pulsed electromagnetic field (tPEMF) frequencies to enhance postsurgical recovery. Used as a standalone therapy or integrated into any treatment protocol, SofPulse transmits gentle pulses to the tissue causing a positive biological effect to help reduce swelling and accelerate the body’s natural recovery process. Patients using SofPulse require significantly fewer prescription medications, potentially decreasing the adverse side effects of opioid medication.

Endonovo’s tPEMF technology is FDA approved for the treatment of post-operative pain and edema, with studies indicating that the technology is at least as effective as NSAIDs in the treatment of pain and swelling. In one study, patients treated with Endonovo tPEMF technology experienced a decrease in pain medication by nearly threefold compared to those who didn’t receive the therapy (http://ibn.fm/jkeC1).

Battery-operated and disposable, SofPulse(R) is a wearable device that delivers electromagnetic pulses either manually or in a preprogrammed mode that automatically provides 15 minutes of therapy every two hours. The pulses go through dressings, casts and clothing, and the convenient device allows a person to remain mobile while still receiving powerful treatment. The treatment can also be integrated into a variety of pain-management, wound-care and post-op protocols.

Endonovo is focused on providing clinical solutions substantiated with research and evidence-based data. The company also strives to be an educational resource for clinicians and has created a research library comprised of the latest clinical data, abstracts and media that focuses on tPEMF technologies. Based on the company’s key technological developments and innovative therapies, Endonovo may represent a significant long-term valuation potential.

• The company projects $19 million total revenue in 2019 and up to $104 million in 2020 as it scales operations to meet rising global demand
• Hemptown USA obtained and grew one million rare CBG seeds for the 2019 growing season, yielding 780,000 pounds of dried biomass, and producing 10.3-13.4 percent full-spectrum non-intoxicating cannabinoids

Hemptown USA is a privately-owned grower of full-spectrum, feminized hemp using premium-seed genetics. The company is the premier player on the cannabigerol (CBG) market which remains strong even as the price of cannabidiol (CBD) continues to experience price compression due to an explosion of hemp grown. One of the key phytocannabinoids present in feminized hemp, CBG has been attracting a lot of attention in the scientific community for its many anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties. CBG is the precursor cannabinoid forming the basis for synthesis of all other cannabinoids, which is why it’s often referred to as the “stem cell” or “mother” of cannabinoids.

These unique features lend CBG great therapeutic promise. Studies show the compound can help regulate mood because it boosts anandamide, the native “pleasure” molecule, and acts as a GABA reuptake inhibitor (http://ibn.fm/6Aj5J). Research also suggests that CBG is a potent anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer agent (http://ibn.fm/ApDEA), as well as a good treatment option for anxiety and depression. In addition, research points to it having potential as an effective natural option for addressing medical problems like glaucoma, inflammatory bowel disease, neurological conditions, bladder disorders and bacterial conditions. CBG is also the key compound in a new FDA application for the treatment of skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema.

Research has however been limited due to the low concentration of CBG in plants. Feminized hemp plants must normally be harvested early in the growth process to capture the CBG before it changes its form to CBD and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), but Hemptown USA plants have been designed to allow harvesting later at full maturity. They have also been designed to be far richer in CBG (10-14 percent). In 2020 and beyond, the company has exclusive rights to 20 percent of the latest and greatest novel cannabinoids being produced by their genetics partner.

Hemptown just completed in the fall of 2019 a 2.1-million-pound harvest of both CBG and CDB rich dried hemp biomass and will be scaling its down stream operations to meet global demand in the wake of the successful 2019 growing season. According to Hemptown data, the company is on track for 2019 revenue of $19 million and is projecting $104 million revenue for 2020 once down stream extraction/production is in full swing. In 2018, the company harvested 110,000 pounds of full-spectrum biomass with CBD content of around 14 percent from its Oregon hemp farms.

The company grew over 1,500 acres in Oregon, Colorado and Kentucky. The Oregon operation is focused exclusively on rare genetics and plans to expand cultivation to 800 acres for the 2020 growing season. Combined with its innovative harvesting measures, this uniquely positions Hemptown as the largest producer of CBG in North America and the world.

The scarcity of CBG and growing demand for the compound have led to an increase in popularity and market price for CBG-based products. In the U.S., the price for CBG distillate/isolate is now five to ten times higher than that of CBD oil and forecasts suggest that CBG will rival CBD’s popularity over the next few years.

With an average margin of 70-80 percent, Hemptown offers a diversified product line that includes top flower, distillate, biomass, isolate and water-soluble ready. Several consumer brands are presently in development with launch dates set for winter 2019. The benefits of Hemptown’s products for beverage, food, and cosmetic companies include purity, potency, cost effectiveness, and marketplace strength.

Headquartered in Portland, Oregon, Hemptown is a proven grower of broad-spectrum hemp biomass using premium seed genetics that contain less than 0.3 percent THC and exceptionally high CBD content of up to 20 percent. The company’s “soil to oil” methodology combines seasoned professionals working in hand-picked agricultural microclimates located in Oregon’s famed Emerald Triangle, as well as Kentucky and Colorado.

• Sigma Labs is revolutionizing the 3D metal printing process by reducing and in certain cases eliminating the need for costly and wasteful post-production inspections
• PrintRite3D software is first and only system that enables real-time, in-process detection of manufacturing irregularities for critical metal parts, provides real-time quality assurance using advanced visualizations to fix process and part irregularities.
• Sigma Labs’ IP portfolio covers advanced in process quality metric (IPQM) algorithmic techniques for the additive manufacturing laser powder bed quality control industry
• Company targets a growing multibillion-dollar global total addressable market
• Negotiating for lucrative machine OEM partnerships to advance “closed loop” technology roadmap
• Tier-1 OEM enterprises and end-users such as Airbus, Baker Hughes, Pratt & Whitney and others are currently evaluating PrintRite3D® for production lines.
• Sigma Labs technology team has developed an inclusive machine technology platform for all machine species that is capable for Single, Dual and Quad Laser machines on multiple OEM platforms.

Sigma Labs Inc. (NASDAQ: SGLB), a developer of latest-generation, non-destructive quality inspection systems for metal-based additive manufacturing and other advanced manufacturing technologies, is set to revolutionize 3D metal printing by eliminating the need for costly post-production inspections and ensuring quality control during the manufacturing process.

3D metal manufacturing or additive manufacturing utilizes lasers to sculpt parts by welding powdered metals into 3D objects. Quality of these parts can vary from machine to machine in a production line and even from part to part in a single production run. Conventional quality assurance methods rely on statistically based post-process inspection methods, which are not effective in improving and certifying 3D metal printer-made parts.

Sigma Labs’ flagship product, PrintRite3D(R), real-time-Computer-Aided Inspection (CAI), has the potential to solve the major problem that has kept large-scale 3D printing of metal parts from achieving cost efficient production runs. PrintRite3D’s patented and third party validated quality assurance software ensures certification and compliance with the hyper critical standards mandated in multiple precision dependent industries like aerospace, defense and biomedical. Sigma Labs’ PrintRite 3D reduces cost, time, waste and weight and allows manufacturers to economically scale up production.

Leading a Revolution in 3D Printing

Sigma Labs is about to radically alter the way critical components are created in the 3D metal printing industry. Heralded as the fourth industrial revolution in manufacturing, 3D printing must move beyond traditional quality control techniques to “in process” quality assurance to fully commercialize. To reduce quality control costs and enhance production speed, it’s necessary to inspect and certify 3D parts while they are being made, not after the fact.

Sigma Labs is already gaining traction with major industry players. In Q3 2019, the company announced a key partnership with Airbus (OTC: EADSY) (FRA: AIR) (http://ibn.fm/eKvRZ). Airbus is the European leader in the aeronautics space providing combat, tanker, mission, passenger and transport aircraft. It is also a leader in the global space industry. Under the agreement, Airbus will complete a Test and Evaluation Program of Sigma Labs’ new PrintRite3D® version 5.0 hardware and software followed by a validation phase on a powder bed fusion printer.

Sigma released the latest version of PrintRite3D(R), 5.0, in May 2019. It delivers a simple, fast, and user-friendly interface operable by both additive manufacturing machine operation technicians and sophisticated process engineers. This cross-functional effort now makes available capabilities that are of interest to a number of high-tech companies moving toward serial additive manufacturing. Version 5.0 enables Sigma and clients to identify unpredictably occurring, design- and metal-specific signatures of precursors of intermittent quality anomalies. So far, no other product has been capable of implementing these procedures at setup and then continuing in machine operation. Sigma Labs’ PrintRite3D(R) technology has no competition in providing actionable in-process data.

Sigma’s OEM licensing strategy and negotiations are crucial to securing deployment of PrintRite3D(R) on the growing marketplace direct from the factory. The product’s forte in these negotiations is integration of unique product functionality within an increasing portfolio of in-process patents. Sigma is fast overcoming the reluctance of OEM’s to adopt third-party quality assurance tools. Widely available tools like automatic braking and parking faced similar challenges early on and Sigma expects a similar outcome for adoption of its PrintRite3D(R) technology.

Significant Advantages to End Users

PrintRite3D(R) tracks the performance of each machine to provide early warnings of changes in machine performance using advanced melt pool quality metrics. X-rays and post process inspections are minimized, saving money and time and increasing production. Sigma is providing the solution the 3D printing industry has long sought, fueling the transition to a new manufacturing revolution.

PrintRite3D(R) has been independently validated as a key, reliable mechanism to ensure compliance and certification of 3D manufactured parts. The authoritative Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) (http://ibn.fm/rsbDS) found Sigma’s technology to “ensure process consistency and product quality in metal additive manufacturing.” DARPA also recognized its capability to monitor the condition of the manufacturing equipment and to certify quality and components.

3D additive metal part quality assurance requires high quality sensitive manufacturers to institute procedures to inspect every single part being made. The only way to attain high yields for cost efficiency and manufacturing quality is an in-process quality assurance approach. PrintRite3D determines whether parts meet quality specifications, examines each part as it’s being manufactured in real-time to ensure it isn’t deviating from specifications then signals the operator of a problem and the adjustments to be made. Machine operators are able to act on the information in real time rather than scraping the part after it has already been manufactured.

Sigma’s Capital Increase Strategy

In the spring of 2019, Sigma implemented a plan to ensure the company had sufficient capital to fund its commercial path this year. This seems to have been the right decision given market volatility. As of November 8, 2019, Sigma’s share volume was 254,273 with previous close at $0.56 per share and open of $0.55 per share. The company’s market cap is $9,254,435 (http://ibn.fm/yOO8m). Sigma has an optimistic outlook with a fortified balance sheet, a growing, multibillion total addressable market (TAM), a growing RTE program, and commercial orders with a clear line of sight to breakeven operations by early 2020. Sigma Labs is on the path to becoming a dominant industry force as it revolutionizes the 3D printing industry.

• The Wonderfilm Media Corp. is a newcomer to the film production industry, drawing on the talents of four veteran producers skilled in delivering huge profits from low-investment properties
• Wonderfilm’s low-risk production model involves pre-packaging a developed script with an actor under contract and pre-sales to distributors, allowing the fledgling company to enter production with a budget tied to available financing
• The company’s growing stable of 18 films includes the just-released Nicholas Cage thriller ‘Primal’
• Wonderfilm is establishing its name in the film industry, gaining media traction while working on pre-sales and solidifying new projects at this month’s American Film Market
• The company has also issued an advisory disclaiming an affiliation with Archer Entertainment Media Communications that has been reported in industry media

The explosive birth of home-access Internet a generation ago has now produced a growing giant of a child in the form of video streaming services – the global video on demand segment of the industry alone was valued at $28.9 billion in 2017 and is expected to reach $89.3 billion by 2026 according to analysts at Maximize Market Research (http://ibn.fm/wQH7i). The Disney behemoth’s launch of its own streaming service this month had already generated 10 million subscribers the day after opening its studio vaults to online viewers, far outpacing expectations and giving the streaming industry a huge shot of adrenaline (http://ibn.fm/V5TqP).

British Columbia-based film production house Wonderfilm Media Corporation (TSX.V: WNDR) (OTCQB: WDRFF) is an up-and-coming developer of original content with established box office talent that stands to benefit from the demand for new content that streaming’s rise portends. With corporate offices in Vancouver and production offices in Los Angeles as well as a management team experienced in developing large profit margins from low production cost properties, the producer-distributor is ideally situated to see its growing stable of films (18 currently, including the just-released Nicholas Cage thriller ‘Primal’) up in lights.

At the beginning of the year, Variety reported estimates that the largest media companies are spending about $107 billion annually on global content. Wonderfilm Media is building its operation into a leading entertainment company through a strategy that relies on developing a script, getting a named actor under contract and then pre-selling the film under a plan that allows Wonderfilm the opportunity to reap not only its production fees, but profits that exceed the terms outlined in the contracts.

The average Wonderfilm movie is pre-sold for $5 million, netting commissions of $500,000 to $750,000 per sale. The commissions stay in-house under Wonderfilm Global, a foreign sales and distribution joint venture with 101 Films and Paul McGowan that Wonderfilm officially launched at this year’s Cannes Film Festival (http://ibn.fm/Rrq9o). The company expects to sell 10 to 12 third-party films between fall 2019 and fall 2020, creating about $6 million in commission income.

The company is less than two years old, and since it takes six months to develop a film and then nine months to a year to make followed by time to get the film released, Wonderfilm is not able to recognize final revenues yet but the revenue projections provide a good estimate of what the company expects.

“Wonderfilm has discussed plans to launch its own streaming channel, but for now the company is focused on creating films for other distributors, both cinematic and online. The boom in streaming services isn’t just good for the companies running those services, it’s also a potential windfall for content creators such as Wonderfilm, as streamers launch a content gold rush,” a recent NetworkNewsWire Editorial reads (http://ibn.fm/PU8Sq).

The company’s producers have been working to build the company’s name within the industry, attending this month’s American Film Market in Santa Monica, California, in an ongoing bid to pre-sell Wonderfilm’s intellectual properties for the company’s expanding production slate of movies and television/streaming series and to solidify new projects by advancing production, streaming and co-production opportunities (http://ibn.fm/HP2PM).

The company simultaneously is working to protect its name from what it considers improper affiliation with another entity – Archer Entertainment Media Communications, Inc.

“Wonderfilm has become aware of a publication dated November 7, 2019 that purportedly states that Wonderfilm is in talks to form an alliance with Archer. This is not true, and Wonderfilm… requests that readers disregard and ignore any references to Wonderfilm having talks with Archer or with Wonderfilm having any other actual or potential relationship with Archer,” the company stated in a November 14 news release (http://ibn.fm/1mF9s). “Wonderfilm is sending a cease and desist letter to Archer regarding Archer’s references to Wonderfilm.”

• Global solar industry valued at $52.5 billion in 2018, growing at a 20.5 percent CAGR to reach $223.3 billion by 2026
• Direct Solar subsidiary signs MOU with social-media, sports-recruiting app to bring solar into U.S. educational community, open international market

SinglePoint Inc. (OTCQB: SING) subsidiary Direct Solar is surging in what was valued as a $52.5 billion global solar market in 2018 by Allied Market Research. Allied sees solar CAGR growing at 20.5 percent between 2019-2026, when it is expected to reach $233.3 billion (http://ibn.fm/hIZwo). SING anticipates large growth and sustainability from Direct Solar, which it projects could deliver sales up to $25 million in FY2020, according to an interview by SinglePoint CEO Greg Lambrecht.

During a MoneyTV interview with host Donald Baillargeon, Lambrecht said that a strong performance by subsidiary Direct Solar could drive company revenues in FY2020 anywhere from $15 to $25 million. The solar division, Lambrecht said, is already generating $1 million a month in contracts with an estimated 30 percent profit margin. In 2020 that monthly sales total could be dramatically higher (http://ibn.fm/RBsEz). By the end of 2019, the company projects its solar division will generate some $5 million in contract sales (http://ibn.fm/Gar50).

“Solar is a monster,” Lambrecht said in a news release. “It’s taken on a life of its own.” Key to the success of solar at SING has been Direct Solar Capital, a division of Direct Solar that helps residential and business owners finance solar installations, enabling them to fund installation and experience long-term savings without a large initial capital outlay.

In addition, to help drive its solar growth and sustainability, SING has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to partner with SchollyME to build solar longevity in the future. Based in California, SchollyME is a social-media app that plays a role in high school athletes being recruited for all 32 NCAA sports (http://ibn.fm/S0E1m).

SchollyME has an international footprint, having recently landed a partnership deal in China said to be worth $1.4 billion within the next 24 months. The deal enables Chinese high school athletes to promote themselves to college coaches in both China and the United States (http://ibn.fm/4j9ab).

The MOU partnership puts SING’s solar subsidiary directly into the worldwide community for education on solar and renewable energy for future generations. “With the SchollyME and Direct Solar partnership, we will be collectively raising capital to continue projects throughout North America,” the announcement said. The partnership will also open the door to greater solar business opportunities for Direct Solar in international markets.

On a larger scale, SING’s optimism about solar and Wall Street’s confidence is based partially on the success of Sunnova Energy International Inc., which completed its IPO in July 2019 and sold some 14 million shares of common stock at a price of $12 per share. In its Q3 2019 financial reporting period, NOVA had positive adjusted operating cash flow of $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30 and generated revenue of $97.9 million for the nine months ended September 30 (http://ibn.fm/1YwqQ). The NOVA IPO and subsequent performance indicates the growth potential of solar, and SING’s expanding presence in the burgeoning industry through Direct Solar suggests its potential for tremendous growth potential and increasing valuation.

• Brick-and-mortar stores are looking to alternative means of commerce to stay afloat
• SHRG encourages relational approach to customer service through Elepreneurs, fostering long-term customer loyalty
• SHRG is at forefront of change by providing tools, services, products in high demand in evolving industry

No industry is failing faster than retail, according to a 2018 report by Harvard Business Review (http://ibn.fm/xOkOc). Companies such as Sears, Toys R Us, Kmart and Payless seem to be echoing this idea as they shut their doors. According to the report, even those whose doors have stayed open are seeing stagnant sales. But is the retail industry actually failing, or is the way forward simply changing? That’s the question Sharing Services Global Corporation (OTCQB: SHRG) is answering.

Numbers don’t lie. Brick-and-mortar stores are suffering if they remain simply a store front. However, those that have begun to offer ecommerce options are seeing growth. Shopify reported that physical stores with an online presence will see 82.5 percent of the ecommerce share of retail by 2021 while ecommerce stores with no physical store front will make up 17.5 percent (http://ibn.fm/Ax4Rx). Convenience and price shopping are a large part of this, and yet 68 percent of Americans don’t like shopping online because they can’t see, touch or try on what they’re buying (http://ibn.fm/BWA8A). So, while ecommerce is on the rise, it still fails to meet most customers’ needs and preferences.

Consumers’ needs aren’t the only ones that are changing. Younger employees are placing a greater emphasis on meaningful and rewarding work over income as they enter the workforce, while boomers are seeking employment that offers independence in their preretirement years. An estimated 74 percent of boomers are looking for opportunities that allow them to create their own schedules during retirement while also bringing in much-needed income. According to the 2019 DSA National Salesforce Study, regardless of the generation, flexibility is a high priority for today’s workers – a priority that is driving more and more individuals to choose direct selling. Flexibility isn’t the only priority for today’s workers. According to NAMI (http://ibn.fm/8XVW9), one in five adults and one in six youth (ages six to 17) experience mental health issues every year. Jobs that offer freedom, flexibility and a focus on relationships and happiness are highly desirable.

That’s great news for Plano, Texas-based Sharing Services. A diversified holding company that owns and operates an interest in a variety of companies specializing in the direct-selling industry, SHRG’s mission is to elevate the entrepreneur by offering relationship marketing and providing the highest quality of products and services.

SHRG equips its independent direct sellers, called Elepreneurs, with the tools and resources needed to work in a rapidly growing, global, direct-sales market. The focus is to elevate lives of Elepreneurs and customers, encourage healthier lifestyles and redefine wealth. Products and services are essential components of a culture that promotes health and happiness. In addition, seminars, classes and workshops are offered that help Elepreneurs define and find their individual success.

In a world where human connection is on the decline, SHRG focuses on relational marketing. Elepreneurs are encouraged and equipped to form long-term relationships that foster customer loyalty through the provision of outstanding service and products. Every customer and every Elepreneur matters. By creating authentic, transparent and quality services, SHRG consumers become loyal to the individual representatives. Growth is built on return business.

All independent work is not the same. Those who choose direct selling with SHRG have the freedom to sell products they believe in, choose their own schedule and co-workers, and mold a career path based on their individual desires and goals.

The rollout of 5G networks is expected to create 3 million jobs and add half a trillion dollars to the GDP, while creating numerous opportunities for tech and communication businesses, Spectrum Global Solutions CEO and President Roger Ponder said. In addition, the rollout will allow Spectrum Global to leverage its professional engineering licenses to bring its 5G network design knowledge to the marketplace, Ponder explained.

The new contracts reflect the growing demand for Spectrum Global Solutions’ professional services. “With our recent establishment of ADEX Canada, we anticipate the strong demand we see in the U.S. translating to Canada, with growing opportunities to add clients to fulfill their network service needs,” Ponder added.

• CIIX will diversify revenue streams to investor relations, marketing/sales of hemp-infused/CBD products in China and the United States
• Company plans launch of hemp-infused wrinkle cream in China, entering potential market of nearly 1.4 billion people
• In Q1 FY2020, CIIX sales jumped 174.7 percent to $1,956,960 from prior year; hemp/CBD products rose 569.2 percent

ChineseInvestors.com Inc. (OTCQB: CIIX), a leading financial information website for Chinese-speaking investors in the United States and China, plans to diversify revenue streams in FY2020. In a letter to shareholders, CIIX CEO Warren Wang outlined the company’s plans to focus on its core investor-relations business as well as continue to expand and market its industrial hemp-infused/CBD products in China and the United States as it eyes greater revenues and profits (http://ibn.fm/mGUbP).

In the letter, Wang said that CIIX plans to launch a hemp-infused wrinkle cream cosmetic in China in the near future. He emphasized that the focus of the company’s efforts in industrial hemp/CBD would be in China through its subsidiary CBD Biotech Co. Ltd. CIIX has supported its industrial hemp/CBD product lines in China evidenced by new product launches and initiatives taken to expand geographically in the Asian market (http://ibn.fm/emkqg).

“As product margins seem to be healthier in this market, the company’s main focus for its industrial hemp business in FY2020 will be on its China operations where we have a robust product development pipeline,” said Wang. The CIIX executive also noted that in China, industrial-hemp extract may be added to cosmetics, thus opening a potential market of nearly 1.4 billion people to the company.

Moving forward, CIIX should have an advantage in the legality/trends of industrial hemp/CBD in other Asian markets because it already has “feet on the ground” in that part of the world, explained Wang. “Although the U.S. market has experienced some favorable changes in the law related to industrial hemp/CBD, there has been some volatility, which can be a consequence of entering a nascent market,” he said. Consequently, Wang said that CIIX would invest “conservatively” in its United States hemp/CBD operation, focusing on organic growth.

Wang also disclosed in the letter that CIIX is in the process of establishing a “working cooperation” with a private equity firm in China. “We would expect this relationship to have a positive impact on our investor relations business globally,” he noted.

In its 8-K filing to the SEC, CIIX reported sharply higher revenues for Q1 2020, the three months ended August 31, 2019. Sales jumped to $1,956,960, 174.7 percent higher than the $712,360 reported for the same quarter the prior year. Hemp- and CBD-product revenues drove that increase with a contribution of $948,751 for the quarter, a 569.2 percent rise from the $141,764 in Q1 2019 (http://ibn.fm/QjZSW).

CIIX’s core investor-relations business generated $821,361 in Q1 2020, a 200 percent improvement over the $271,248 reported the same period the prior year. CIIX has refocused and grown its core business.

The Q1 2020 performance continued growth reported earlier as CIIX recorded sharp gains of 175 percent year-over-year for its FY2019, ended in May 2019. That rise was generated by FY2019 sales of $6,476,442 compared to $2,353,331 in FY2018, according to its 10-K SEC filing (http://ibn.fm/di0xI). The increase was driven by industrial-hemp and CBD-liquor product sales of $4,189,935 in FY2019 compared to $378,984 in FY2018 (http://ibn.fm/l8Fl1). Investor relations, a core business, generated gains as well. Its sales were $1,336,402 in FY2019 compared to $968,282 the prior year.
