REZYFi, Inc. Continues to See Opportunity in Serving Cannabis-Related Companies Amid Marijuana Rescheduling Efforts in the US

  • REZYFi is a Miami, Florida-headquartered growth mortgage origination and specialized financing company that primarily targets licensed and permitted cannabis companies and owners of real estate who lease to cannabis companies
  • Traditional banks are governed by federal law, which criminalizes marijuana; as a result, they are hesitant to offer financial services to cannabis businesses
  • The President recently set a process in motion that could culminate in the rescheduling of marijuana, although given that this review will not actually decriminalize the substance, the status quo, which disadvantages cannabis companies, will remain
  • REZYFi believes cannabis-related companies will continue to experience difficulties accessing financing from traditional banks, presenting a major opportunity
Last month, the President called for marijuana rescheduling by directing the Secretary of Health and Human Services and the Attorney General to “initiate the administrative process to review expeditiously how marijuana is scheduled under federal law” (https://ibn.fm/BV6RE). Currently, marijuana is classified in Schedule 1 of the Controlled Substances Act of 1970, a category reserved for drugs that, according to the US Drug Enforcement Administration (“DEA”), have a high potential for abuse with no accepted medical use (https://ibn.fm/WyVsr). In rationalizing his October 6 announcement, the President noted that “this is the same schedule as for heroin and LSD, and even higher than the classification of fentanyl and methamphetamine – the drugs that are driving our overdose epidemic.” As consequential as the announcement might be, a recent article in MJBizDaily notes that this order has unleashed “a very long, very complex, and very unpredictable force on the world that might yet wreak unintended havoc” (https://ibn.fm/jyJth). This is because of the many unknowns associated with the move. For instance, it could enable struggling American marijuana firms to enjoy tax relief under Section 280E of the federal tax code. At the same time, however, large pharmaceutical companies could be incentivized to enter the cannabis industry, usurping business from existing but smaller players. Moreover, at a legislative level, an act of Congress could cancel out the recommendations that emerge from the review process. And even if the rescheduling were successful, there are cons associated with each new schedule under which marijuana could be classified. For instance, the MJBizDaily article notes, rescheduling marijuana as a Schedule 2 drug will mean that cannabis companies will have to endure the arduous and expensive FDA approval process before their products can enjoy legal relief. Moreover, a new Schedule 3 or 4 status will still require FDA approval even though the cannabis industry is not designed to comply with it. Finally, reclassification to Schedule 5 will only permit marijuana’s use for medical purposes and not responsible recreational use. Nevertheless, regardless of whichever schedule marijuana falls under post-rescheduling, the review, as is, will not decriminalize the substance. And as a result, the status quo, which sees cannabis-related companies struggle to obtain financing from traditional banks, may remain. (Traditional banks abide by federal law, which currently criminalizes marijuana use.) This presents a gap that REZYFi and its wholly owned subsidiaries, REZYFi Lending and ResMac, have sought to fill. In fact, REZYFi believes cannabis-related firms will continue to experience difficulties obtaining financing from traditional sources – the rescheduling efforts notwithstanding – creating opportunity for the company. REZYFi is a growth mortgage origination and specialized financing company headquartered in Miami, Florida. The company primarily offers a variety of real-estate-related first and additional mortgage-based financing and project-specific financings to licensed and permitted cannabis companies and owners of real estate who lease to cannabis companies. Through REZYFi Lending, the company provides specialty lending, cannabis commercial lending, and cannabis working capital letter of credit (“LOC”). On the other hand, it offers correspondent, retail, and wholesale mortgages through ResMac. REZYFi believes the demand for innovative financing offerings by players in the cannabis market will continue to grow as more geographic markets legalize recreational and medical cannabis usage, a belief that has fueled its expansion within the United States. Currently, REZYFi is licensed in 36 states but is looking to expand into additional jurisdictions. For more information, visit the company’s website at www.REZYFi.com.

SideChannel Inc. (SDCH) Is ‘One to Watch’

  • SideChannel recently released Enclave, its first software product
  • The company acquired SideChannel in July 2022 and changed its name post-acquisition
  • An industry benchmark study puts average CISO compensation at $463,000 annually, making SideChannel’s vCISO model attractive to its SMB target market
  • According to IBM, the average cost to organizations of a cybersecurity breach is $4.2 million
  • Cybersecurity Ventures reports a lack of trained professionals will leave 3.5 million cybersecurity positions unfilled by 2025, increasing demand for virtual security services
SideChannel (OTCQB: SDCH) simplifies cybersecurity for mid-market companies by matching them with highly experienced information security officers at a cost lower than building an in-house information security team or hiring a full-time CISO. SideChannel’s team of virtual Chief Information Security Officers (“vCISOs”) possesses a combined 400-plus years of experience in cybersecurity. They’ve honed their skills and abilities in places like Anthem, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Best Buy, TD Bank and the Pentagon. SideChannel lends this talent to clients, creating value in the form of a bespoke cybersecurity program perfectly sized for the growing enterprise. SideChannel is committed to creating top-tier cybersecurity programs for SMBs to help them protect their data and assets. To date, SideChannel has created more than 50 multi-layered cybersecurity programs for its clients. Reports show that cyberattacks on SMBs have increased in recent years, as organizations’ network attack surfaces have grown exponentially with remote and in-office workers increasingly relying on cloud environments, mobile devices, software applications and third-party suppliers to conduct business. SideChannel continues expanding its service offerings, workforce and customer base, attracting over 20 virtual CISOs to serve across industries including fintech, biotech, healthcare, manufacturing, legal, defense and technology services.

A lack of cybersecurity professionals and the budget constraints among SMBs and start-ups in developing economies are expected to hinder market growth. Cybercriminals are using automated techniques to attack SMBs’ networks to take advantage of their weak security infrastructures. To save money, time and resources, SMBs are seeking cybersecurity solutions. Enclave Enclave expands upon SideChannel’s cybersecurity service offerings by solving a pervasive network security problem with a simple tool. A comprehensive cloud and network security solution, Enclave enables IT teams to contain breaches faster, reduce network outages, minimize latency and strengthen overall security defense.

With Enclave, IT can easily segment their company’s network, organize personnel and computing devices at the employee workload level, and implement security controls across all network segments. Enclave was designed and purpose built to serve the growing security needs of SMBs, a traditionally underserved market that is more prone to cyberattacks but has limited protection due to smaller budgets, inadequate IT security staffing and a lack of cybersecurity awareness among top executives. Enclave is an affordable and effective network security solution that shrinks the attack surface area exposed to a cyber intruder and significantly reduces the amount of effort required to operate securely.

Correlate Infrastructure Partners Inc. (CIPI) Eyeing Big Net Gains Following the Enactment of the Inflation Reduction Act; Has Finalized M&A Plans Through Q2 2023 and Posted Revenue Jump

  • With the recently passed Inflation Reduction Act, Correlate looks to achieve significant net gains
  • The company just posted a significant revenue bump from $236,690 in Q2 2022 to $2,313,577 in Q3 2022, plus shows project opportunities of up to $194 million
  • Todd Michaels, Correlate’s CEO, has also noted the company’s finalized M&A plans through Q2 2023, integral to scaling up the size and overall value of its projects and further growing revenue
  • In September, the company entered into a non-binding letter of intent to acquire Vermont-based Aegis Renewable Energy Inc., which, once finalized, will present Correlate with new strategic abilities to explore the bludgeoning Northeast renewable energy market
Correlate Infrastructure Partners (OTCQB: CIPI), a tech-enabled development, finance, and fulfillment platform for distributed energy solutions across North America, just released its financial report for the third quarter of the 2022 financial year (“Q3 2022”). Of obvious note was the significant bump in revenue from $236,690 in Q2 2022 to $2,312,577. While speaking during the announcement, Todd Michaels, Correlate’s CEO, lauded the company’s performance and expressed his optimism for the company’s future, particularly with the enactment of the Inflation Reduction Act (https://ibn.fm/wVfqP). Mr. Michaels acknowledged the Act, citing its benefits to clients and investors in the renewable energy space, reporting that the move will be a significant net gain for the company and integral in opening it up to new markets in 2023. “The Inflation Reduction Act enacted in late August provided new tax incentives that reduce costs for clients and/or elevate returns to investors; this led to larger contract sizes with redesigns to domestic content,” noted Mr. Michaels. “While this meant delaying some project starts, it will be a big net gain, and will open new markets for us in 2023,” he added. The Inflation Reduction Act was designed to offer renewable technologies tax credits. While it promises immediate results and benefits, the most significant impact is projected to be felt toward the end of the decade once supply-chain issues are fixed. For example, through this Act, it is estimated that solar power plants built between 2022 and 2030 will generate over 364 gigawatts of electricity, which is more than three times the capacity of all US solar plants in operation in 2021 (https://ibn.fm/Gupzo). Currently, Correlate has project opportunities valued at up to $194 million, with projects in development that have been awarded agreements and contracts that have been executed and are under installation. With the implemented Act, it looks to significantly scale up its projects’ size and overall value, ultimately growing its revenue and creating even more value for its shareholders. This will also be achieved by Correlate’s ambitious M&A plan, which Mr. Michaels notes the company has already finalized. “With this in mind [anticipated project delays], we have finalized our M&A plans through Q2 2023 and seek to close our first acquisition by year-end,” noted Mr. Michaels. In September, Correlate entered into a non-binding letter of intent to acquire Vermont-based Aegis Renewable Energy Inc., a leading commercial, industrial, and community solar company focused on solar project development and engineering, procurement, and construction (“EPC”). Through this acquisition, Correlate hopes to capitalize on new strategic abilities to explore the bludgeoning Northeast renewable energy market where some of the states in the region, such as Vermont, have set goals to meet 90% of their energy needs with renewable sources by 2050 (https://ibn.fm/f5DuI). Correlate remains optimistic about its performance going forward and looks to capitalize on new and existing opportunities to achieve its short-term and long-term goals. Mr. Michaels is confident that the recently-implemented Inflation Reduction Act will play an integral role in the company’s growth, expansion of its opportunity pipeline, and value creation for its shareholders.

CNS Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP) Announces First European Dosing in Potentially Pivotal GBM Trial

  • The National Brain Tumor Society anticipates that more than 13,000 Americans will receive a GBM diagnosis during 2022, accounting for 49.1% of all primary malignant brain tumors
  • CNS announced the first patient in Europe has been enrolled and dosed in the global trial to evaluate Berubicin for the treatment of GBM
  • Berubicin is a novel anthracycline and the first to appear to cross the blood-brain barrier
  • The global GBM treatment market is expected to reach a value of $4.2 billion by 2028, driven by the increased approval granted by the FDA for novel GBM treatment therapies

CNS Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: CNSP), a clinical stage biotechnology company specializing in the development of novel treatments, announced that the first patient in Europe has been enrolled and dosed in France in the company’s ongoing potentially pivotal global trial to evaluate Berubicin for the treatment of recurrent glioblastoma multiforme (“GBM”), an aggressive and incurable form of brain cancer. According to the National Brain Tumor Society, more than 13,000 Americans are expected to receive a GBM diagnosis during 2022, which accounts for 49.1% of all primary malignant brain tumors (https://ibn.fm/RKJHr).

CNS Pharmaceuticals has opened 29 clinical sites of the 68 sites selected across the United States, Italy, France, Spain, and Switzerland. The company is planning a non-binding futility analysis, which will be performed after approximately 30 to 50% of all planned patients have completed the primary endpoint at six months which is expected mid-year 2023. The review will include additional evaluation of safety as well as secondary efficacy endpoints, with no pause to enrollment during the interim analysis.

According to CEO John Climaco, the CNS Pharmaceuticals team worked tirelessly to expand its Berubicin clinical trial globally, and the enrolment and dosing of the first patient in France shortly after the opening of the site is a notable accomplishment and confirmation of the team’s commitment to driving the program forward (https://ibn.fm/K9IUE).

“I am pleased with the progress made and remain committed to building on this momentum. We expect to enroll and dose additional patients across our clinical trial sites in Europe and advance toward the much-anticipated inflection point, which is the interim analysis,” Climaco added.

The global GBM treatment market was valued at $2.14 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.8% and reach an estimated value of $4.2 billion by 2028. The market’s growth is expected to be driven by the increased approval for novel therapies for GBM treatment. The special designation granted by the FDA for investigational new drugs is expected to help expedite the approval process and commercialization of these therapies (https://ibn.fm/ZxByq).

Berubicin is a novel anthracycline and the first anthracycline to appear to cross the blood-brain barrier (based upon pre-clinical data and limited clinical data) and is currently being evaluated in the potentially pivotal study evaluating efficacy and safety for GBM treatment. This potentially pivotal study is an adaptive, multicenter, open-label, randomized, and controlled study in adult patients with recurrent GBM after the failure of standard first-line therapy. The study’s primary endpoint is Overall Survival (“OS”), an endpoint the FDA has recognized as a basis for approval of oncology drugs when a statistically significant improvement can be shown relative to a randomized control arm.

CNS’s study will compare Berubicin to a standard of care (Lomustine), with a 2 to 1 randomization of patients to receive one of the two drugs. The recently amended protocol expands eligibility to patients who received additional treatments as a form of first-line therapy. The FDA has granted the company Fast Track Designation for Berubicin, enabling more frequent interactions with them to guide expediting the development and review process. The FDA has also granted CNS Orphan Drug Designation, which may provide seven years of marketing exclusivity upon approval of an NDA.
