• Predictive Oncology CEO Carl Schwartz featured on NNW’s podcast to discuss the company’s prospects
• Schwartz elaborated on company’s various divisions, affirming that POAI had begun to see revenue trends stabilize, cash burn rates decline
• TumorGenesis received overwhelmingly positive feedback on its initial product launches, with plans to extend its technological prowess to address other oncological segments
• Soluble Biotech, which announced its first major contract in August, is expected to reveal news of second order win in near future
• Schwartz touched upon POAI’s Helomics business, stating his belief that division could soon transition towards monetizing its unique and one-of-a-kind asset portfolio

Predictive Oncology (NASDAQ: POAI) CEO Carl Schwartz was recently featured in an exclusive audio interview with NetworkNewsWire (“NNW”), a financial news and content distribution company, to provide an update on the company’s recent milestones and near-term goals following the October release of his open letter to Predictive Oncology’s shareholders (https://ibn.fm/XLY14). During the wide-ranging conversation, Schwartz sought to update listeners on the company’s subsidiaries – Skyline Medical, TumorGenesis, Soluble Biotech and Helomics (https://ibn.fm/Vqkh5).

Schwartz commenced by outlining the status of the company’s Skyline Medical business, charged with overseeing the manufacture and sale of their proprietary STREAMWAY system – designed to provide medical facilities with a direct-to-drain fluid disposal system. The CEO revealed that although the company had sought to reduce emphasis on its legacy division, the company had sold 18 STREAMWAY units thus far in 2020 with the expectation of selling between 5-7 more over the course of the year.

Moreover, he explained that the business was throwing off an estimated $700 thousand in annual free cash-flows—a figure which has proven to be more than sufficient to cover the unit’s operating expenses.

Schwartz went on to elaborate on the TumorGenesis business, which specializes in the field of ovarian cancer, creating laboratory-grown cancer cells which can then be used to assist researchers and clinicians identify which cancer cells bind to specific biomarkers. He revealed that the company had received overwhelmingly positive feedback in regards to the division’s initial product launch and stated that the company would seek to extend its technological prowess towards addressing oncological segments such as lung cancer in the future.

The interview later transitioned to POAI’s most recent acquisition, Soluble Biotech, which seeks to provide optimized FDA-approved formulations for vaccines, antibodies and other protein therapeutics in a faster and lower cost basis to its customers. In August 2020, the company announced its first contract with a major pharmaceutical company for protein expression and solubility studies, and Schwartz stated that a second significant contract would be announced in the near future. Going forward, the CEO expressed his optimism on further contract wins as well as the award of certain grants, which had been applied for by the division.

Schwartz also touched upon Predictive Oncology’s outlook for the fourth quarter – placing particular emphasis on the prospects of the company’s Helomics business. Through its Helomics division, the company leverages its unique, clinically validated patient derived (“PDx”) smart tumor profiling platform to provide oncologists with a roadmap to help individualize therapy. In addition, the company is leveraging artificial intelligence and its proprietary database of over 150,000 cancer case tumors to build AI-driven models of tumor drug response with the hope of improving outcomes for the patients of today and tomorrow.  With the wealth of knowledge and experience gleaned over its operational lifespan, Schwartz affirmed his belief that Helomics was well on its way towards monetizing its exceptional and one-of-a-kind asset portfolio and validating the ambitions that POAI had harbored for the division upon its purchase a little over two years ago.

• Experts expect the recreational marijuana market in Michigan to rival the numbers currently seen in some of country’s top cannabis markets within the next few years
• Gage Cannabis Co. is innovating and curating the highest-quality cannabis experiences possible for cannabis consumers in the state of Michigan
• New Lansing location offers a wide range of products, all available for purchase through curbside delivery or walk-up pick up

Gage Cannabis is strengthening its position as Michigan’s leading high-quality craft cannabis brand and operator by offering recreational marijuana at its Lansing, Michigan location (https://ibn.fm/6Xhxk). The company is committed to building the fastest-growing cannabis brand in the state, which is currently home to one of the fastest-growing legal cannabis markets in the country.

“We are thrilled to start offering recreational sales to more customers within the Lansing area,” said Gage Cannabis Co. president Fabian Monaco. “The demand for adult-use products has exploded in the past year, and we are ready and eager to meet those needs. We have received an overwhelmingly positive response from medical patients about our products and retail experience, and we look forward to providing the same level of service and product selection to our new community of recreational customers.”
Gage’s Lansing location offers a wide range of products, all available for purchase through curbside delivery or walk-up pick up. The store’s product offerings include flower, pre-rolls, edibles, concentrates, topicals, tinctures, CBD products, accessories and apparel. The company also features products by Redemption Cannabis, which was founded by Ryan Basore, one of Gage’s first social-equity program recipients.

Through this program, Gage offers grants of up to $50,000 to help those who were harmed by the war on drugs. In 2019, Basore, who spent two and a half years in prison after his cannabis business was raided by authorities, received the grant from Gage Cannabis and used the funds to join with other drug-war victims and create the Redemption brand  (https://ibn.fm/41GfM).

In addition to its Lansing location, Gage has four additional locations up and running — Adrian (which also offers recreational marijuana), Detroit, Ferndale and Traverse City — with eight more locations coming soon. The company has plans to have more than 20 operating locations by the end of 2021.

Many experts expect the recreational marijuana market in Michigan to rival the numbers currently seen in some of the country’s top cannabis markets within the next few years (https://ibn.fm/9cO0h). An estimated 3% of Michigan’s residents hold medical marijuana cards, a much higher percentage than most other medical markets. A leading research organization predicts that the state’s recreational market could triple in size between 2020 and 2023.

Gage Cannabis Co. is innovating and curating the highest-quality cannabis experiences possible for cannabis consumers in the state of Michigan and bringing internationally renowned brands to market. Through years of progressive industry experience, the firm’s founding partners have successfully built and grown operations with federal and state licenses, including cultivation, processing and retail locations. Gage’s portfolio includes city and state approvals for 19 Class C cultivation licenses, three processing licenses and 13 provisioning centers (dispensaries). The company is currently planning a Canadian listing for early 2021 (https://ibn.fm/V73dL) and has launched a Regulation A, Tier 2, equity financing.

• Statistics Canada data confirms growth in Canada’s legal marijuana market
• PACR leverages genetics to produce superior-quality strains, tailored for specific purposes
• PACR’s catalog contains 350 tested quality cultivars, including 50 super-elite strains

Canada’s legal marijuana industry recently celebrated its second anniversary with a jump in sales – a sign of victory in its ongoing battle with the black market (https://ibn.fm/4jOA8). As a licensed cultivator and producer, Pac Roots Cannabis (CSE: PACR) is positioned to benefit from this opportunity to market its premium-quality cannabis strains to a larger audience. Cultivated using innovative techniques based on genetic principles, Pac Roots produces custom strains unavailable on the conventional market that can be tailored for specific purposes.

Until recently, legal cannabis sellers have been struggling to compete with the black market since the country legalized recreational marijuana. The tide appears to be changing—evidenced by data from Statistics Canada showing that people spent 74% more money on legal cannabis between April and June of this year when compared to the same period in 2019.

Pac Roots is poised to benefit from this shift through an increased opportunity to market its superior strains, many of which are tweaked with varying amounts of tetrahydrocannabinol (“THC”) and cannabidiol (“CBD”) for specific therapeutic purposes. Along with altering the cannabidiol profile of their cultivars, the company also leverages genetic technology to develop plants that adapt easily to the climate for maximum yields each growing season.

Pac Roots maintains its commitment to quality genetics through a strategic licensing agreement with Phenome One Corp, a privately-held full-service genetics cannabis company. This partnership gives Pac Roots access to one of the largest living genetic cannabis libraries in Canada – an unparalleled resource that has empowered both companies to develop elite strains with multiple beneficial characteristics. Along with 350 tested cultivars, PACR’s extensive catalog also contains 50 super-elite strains prized for specific properties unique to the industry.

With a focus on the future, PACR is also committed to building its portfolio of real estate that includes valuable long-term income-producing and development assets. In addition to completing its indoor facility in Lake Country, British Columbia (“BC”), the Company has also acquired a 60% interest in a 100-acre joint venture hemp project in Rock Creek, BC, along with adding 250 acres of premium Fraser Valley land to its portfolio.

The cannabis industry continues to grow as laws around marijuana relax throughout the world. Awareness around cannabinoids and their therapeutic properties is increasing among the general public – especially among discerning consumers knowledgeable about specific strains and their properties. As a cultivator of unique strains varying in specific cannabinoids like THC and CBD, Pac Roots is in an ideal position to leverage this increased consumer awareness by providing top quality cannabis products for discriminating consumers.

• PGA, MLB changes CBD policies; other leagues evaluating policy changes regarding marijuana, CBD use
• Global market for CBD oil projected to grow from $967.2 million in 2020 to $5.3 billion by 2025
• WTER offers an exclusive line of A88CBD(TM) products, ranging from tinctures, capsules and gummies to lotion, creams salves

Since CBD was removed from professional golf’s banned substance list in 2018, PGA and Champions Tour players are turning more frequently to the plant to treat aches and pains, and golfers aren’t the only athletes to choose the compound. Earlier this year, Major League Baseball removed marijuana from its banned-substance list during the offseason (https://ibn.fm/G0lyQ). The benefits of CBD use by athletes are still being studied, but the Alkaline Water Company Inc. (NASDAQ: WTER) (CSE: WTER) offers an exclusive line of A88CBD(TM) products(https://ibn.fm/KeIXt) that provide those benefits to sports enthusiasts — and anyone else looking for high-quality CBD-infused options.

“Billy Horschel went six months without a top-eight finish last year before he found a remedy for his ailing golf game from a surprising source: the hemp plant,” reported a recent “New York Times” article (https://ibn.fm/SBglV). “Horschel, a five-time PGA Tour winner, began using cannabidiol, or CBD, products shortly after he missed the cut at the British Open in July. He had four top-eight finishes in the next four months and was playing some of the most consistent golf of his career before the season was suspended in March because of the coronavirus pandemic. . . . He is the latest in a growing group of tour members, including Bubba Watson, a two-time Masters champion, and Scott McCarron, the reigning Schwab Cup winner on the Champions Tour, who are paid endorsers for CBD products.”

In addition to golf and the MLB, an ESPN article reports that CBD use is allowed in the National Women’s Soccer League. The substance is currently prohibited in the NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL. However, “the NBA has also expressed interest in revising its bylaws against CBD use. In 2018, CBD was removed from the World Anti-Doping Agency’s banned substances list” (https://ibn.fm/nxnoR).

The same article noted that CBD, short for cannabidiol, “has often been touted as a cure-all of sorts. Manufacturers and users claim, mostly anecdotally, that it has given them relief from muscle soreness and swelling and helped curb stress and anxiety. . . . Hemp-based CBD is legal — in various forms from ingestible oils to topicals — in all but three states in the U.S. and is legal at the federal level. States have their own rules restricting or allowing CBD products to be sold, and in many states, CBD can be sold over the counter in drug stores. It remains unregulated by the Federal Drug Administration, however.”

The ESPN article reported that the global market for CBD oil should grow from $967.2 million in 2020 to $5.3 billion by 2025 — all without CBD brands being allowed to directly advertise their products on social media.

WTER chairman Aaron Keay, a former Canadian national soccer team member, is an advocate for CBD use in sports, as well as other aspects of everyday use. “If you look at the kind of the athlete adoption of it, it kind of coincides with how the world is taking it on and looking at it. But you have a few movers and shakers that are willing to take the risk and say: ‘Look, CBD is going to become mainstream way ahead of cannabis and THC,'” Keay told ESPN. The Alkaline Water Company Inc. is a proud supporter of sports; the company’s brand ambassador Chez Reavie, who wears WTER’s flagship Alkaline88 logo on his shirt and sports an Alkaline88 golf bag at all PGA events, won the 2019 Travelers Championship Tournament.

The Alkaline Water Company offers an exclusive line of A88CBD(TM) products, ranging from tinctures, capsules and gummies to lotion, creams salves. The A88CBD products are formulated using high-quality, U.S.-grown hemp and made with 100% natural ingredients, cruelty-free, and gluten-free ingredients.

Founded in 2012, The Alkaline Water Company is headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona. Its flagship product, Alkaline88, is a leading premier alkaline water brand available in bulk and single-serve sizes along with eco-friendly aluminum packaging options. In 2019, Alkaline88 launched A88 Infused(TM) to meet consumer demand for flavor-infused products. A88 Infused flavored water is available in seven unique all-natural flavors with new flavors coming soon. Additionally, in 2020 the company launched A88 Infused Beverage Division Inc., which includes the company’s CBD water and flavor-infused water.

• Doctor Practitioner
• Convenience

HempFusion’s Line of Products

HempFusion’s branded line of products is based on the company’s proprietary Whole Food Panoramic Full-Spectrum Hemp Complex. Each product is condition-specific, targeting needs such as sleep, energy and stress.

All of HempFusion’s products are made from DNA-verified, European Union registered, non-GMO, organic industrial hemp. The company’s offerings span multiple product categories, including:

• Security robot developer Knightscope has created autonomous sentry models that patrol properties and collect data to maintain a heightened level of public safety

• The privately held company is backed by over 16,000 investors and four major corporations and has raised more than $70 million since its inception in 2013
• Robots’ features include 360-degree eye-level HD streaming video, people detection and facial recognition features, automatic license plate recognition, thermal anomaly detection, and automatic signal detection
• A security project for the Veterans Administration this year marked Knightscope’s first agreement with the federal government

Autonomous Security Robot developer Knightscope is using the technological prowess of artificial intelligence in its roving mechanical sentinels as a futuristic means of responding to the nation’s security needs and shortcomings inherent in personnel issues.

Knightscope’s automated sentinels have the capacity to patrol properties on a 24/7 basis 365 days a year, potentially averting crime merely through their presence and retrieving data that can then be used strategically by monitoring personnel to solve crimes that have taken place.

The various robot models feature 360-degree eye-level HD streaming video, people detection and facial recognition features, automatic license plate recognition, thermal anomaly detection, and automatic signal detection.

Knightscope robots have demonstrated their capabilities in a number of emergency response situations. The company notes they have assisted in arrests stemming from armed robbery and vehicle theft, burglary and property damage incidents. One security robot’s thermal camera identified a heat anomaly within a business that alerted responders to a developing fire hazard. Other data assists in law enforcement investigations have included cases involving fraud, hit and run damage, bicycle thefts and sexual predators (https://ibn.fm/mSyO1).

In July, the company announced an agreement to use one of its models at the Audie L. Murphy Memorial Veteran’s Hospital in San Antonio, Texas — Knightscope’s first federal government project and one it hopes the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Police Department will expand to more government client opportunities (https://ibn.fm/kLJAc). The company celebrated the robot’s deployment in a social media post this month (https://ibn.fm/5pyjU).

Knightscope is a private company backed by more than 16,000 investors and four major corporations, and has raised more than $70 million since it began in 2013.

“Our long-term mission is to make the United States of America the safest country in the world – and with your continued support, we will reimagine public safety, together, at a time when our Nation needs it most,” the company’s chairman and CEO William Santana Li states (https://ibn.fm/EGBLB).
