(CNSX: SLNG), ("SLANG" or the "Company"), a global cannabis consumer packaged goods ("CPG") company, today announced that it has filed its financial results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.  The consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").  All figures are stated in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted. SLANG Worldwide CEO Peter Miller said, "SLANG Worldwide's mission is to build a portfolio of leading cannabis consumer products and an extensive distribution network to sell our products. In 2018, we laid the foundational building blocks with SLANG's acquisitions of Organa Brands and Firefly, which were completed in January 2019. Today we are a different company: SLANG is in a position of strength with a diverse portfolio of high performing cannabis brands distributed in over 2,600 stores across 11 US states, Puerto Rico, Canada and Jamaica. We plan to leverage our brand, distribution and partnership strengths and expect rapid growth and scale in the months to come." Fiscal 2018 Results As at December 31, 2018, SLANG had not yet completed the acquisitions of National Concessions Group ("NCG" or "Organa Brands") and NWT Holdings, LLC (also known as "Firefly"). Accordingly, the Company's fiscal 2018 financial results do not include any results of the operations of Organa Brands or Firefly, and are more reflective of acquisition and financing costs associated with corporate development activities. The Company reported revenue of $5.2 million in 2018, consisting primarily of rental income.  Operating expenses in 2018 were $19.8 million, relating primarily to valuation adjustments, professional and non-cash marketing costs in the startup phase of the Company's business. In addition, the Company incurred a $7.7 million impairment charge and $5.9 million of financing and fair value adjustment charges, in accordance with IFRS accounting standards. Net loss in 2018 was $28.0 million, of which $23.8 million was related to non-cash marketing, goodwill adjustments, share compensation and derivative adjustments. The Company's reported financial results for the first quarter ending March 31, 2019 will include results for Organa Brands and Firefly starting from January 22, 2019, the date the acquisitions were completed. Subsequent Events On January 22, 2019, certain escrow conditions were satisfied and approximately $63 million of funds were released to the Company in accordance with the terms of a subscription receipt offering that had closed on September 26, 2018, and 43,998,590 subscription receipts of the Company were automatically converted, without any further consideration or action by the holders thereof, into 43,998,590 common shares of the Company ("Common Shares") and 21,999,281 common share purchase warrants (the "Warrants"). Each Warrant is exercisable into one Common Share at an exercise price of $2.25 for a period of 24 months commencing on January 29, 2019, subject to certain acceleration and adjustment provisions.  The Company used the funds from the offering to complete two acquisitions, with the balance held for working capital purposes. On January 22, 2019, the acquisition of Organa Brands was closed with the payment of USD $20 million in cash and the issuance of an aggregate of 65,000,000 Common Shares and 17,500,000 restricted voting shares ("Restricted Shares"). Upon closing of the Organa Brands acquisition, the Company was granted options to acquire Allied Concessions Group ("ACG") for an aggregate of 33,000,000 Common Shares or Restricted Shares (provided that a maximum of 19,800,000 of such shares may be Restricted Shares) and NS Holdings ("NSH") for 49,500,000 Common Shares or Restricted Shares (provided that a maximum of 29,700,000 of such shares may be Restricted Shares). Both ACG and NSH are components of the Company's supply chain for Organa Brands products. The exercise of the options is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions precedent, and at the date of this release the options had not been exercised. On January 22, 2019, the acquisition of Firefly was completed for consideration of USD $8 million in cash and 7,087,464 Common Shares. On January 29, 2019, the Common Shares began trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the ticker symbol "SLNG." On February 29, 2019, the Company announced that it has entered into a partnership with Trulieve Cannabis Corp., the largest vertically integrated cannabis production and retail company in Florida, to offer the state's more than 180,000 registered medical marijuana patients access to SLANG's portfolio of leading cannabis brands in Trulieve's dispensaries across the state. Pursuant to the partnership, Trulieve has an exclusive license to distribute SLANG's portfolio of branded cannabis products across its Florida distribution network, which currently includes 26 dispensaries and home delivery available statewide.  Sales in Florida under this agreement are expected to commence in Q2 2019. On March 6, 2019, the Company announced that it has entered into a partnership with Southern Development Holdings ("SDH") to offer its branded cannabis products to patients across Puerto Rico.

The Company will receive royalty payments for each SLANG branded product sold in Puerto Rico, with sales expected to begin in Q2 2019. On March 11, 2019, the Company announced the launch of the RESERVE product line in the California market as an extension of its O.penVAPE brand.

The Organa Brands, Firefly, and SLANG teams moved from industry peers and allies, to an organized and consolidated leadership group, establishing efficient management coverage of the 11 states in which SLANG brands are carried. The SLANG team identified the first territories it intends to enter or enhance its presence including through potential partnership and acquisition. Strategic Priorities SLANG will simultaneously develop and acquire the necessary elements to enhance brand presence, leadership, and performance; establishing deep market penetration with the best products, collectively selling the most branded units. The Company focuses on creating brand value by establishing leadership positions in what management believes to be the highest value segments of the supply chain: manufacturing, branding and distribution. By allocating capital to these activities and foregoing investments in expensive infrastructure associated with the cultivation and retail segments, the Company aims to deliver strong returns to its investors. The Company intends to evolve its portfolio of branded products within existing categories and expand into new categories.  Our portfolio is among the most diverse and widely distributed in the cannabis industry, highlighted by the following brands: O.penVAPE, Bakked, Reserve, Craft Reserve, ISH, Magic Buzz, Pressies, District Edibles, Green House Seed Co., Strain Hunters, and Firefly. The Company will continue to pursue strategic partnerships in order to add new brand assets to our portfolio, expedite our entry into new markets and broaden our distribution network. In 2019, we expect to expand our distribution network to enable us to continue to bring new products to market and grow sales of our existing portfolio. Our branded products are currently available in over 2,600 retail locations, 11 states and five continents. We plan to continue to expand the geographic areas where our products can be bought. The Company plans to enter the Canadian market following an anticipated regulatory change that will permit the sale of cannabis-infused products in October 2019.  We are evaluating additional international markets to identify suitable jurisdictions for potential market entry. On April 11, 2019, the Company had 211,993,602 common shares and 17,500,000 restricted voting shares issued and outstanding, as well as 41,255,918 vested Common Share purchase warrants and a total of 8,083,528 stock options.

TORONTO, Jan. 22, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES SLANG Worldwide Inc. (formerly, Fire Cannabis Inc.) (“SLANG” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that on September 26, 2018, the Company completed its previously announced offering of subscription receipts of the Company (the “Subscription Receipts”) pursuant to which the Company issued 43,998,590 Subscription Receipts at a price of C$1.50 per Subscription Receipt for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $66 million (the “Subscription Receipt Offering”).  SLANG has subsequently delivered an escrow release notice (the “Escrow Release Notice”) to Odyssey Trust Company (the “Subscription Receipt Agent”) pursuant to the terms of a subscription receipt agreement dated September 26, 2018 between SLANG, the Subscription Receipt Agent and Canaccord Genuity Corp. (the “Subscription Receipt Agreement”) confirming that SLANG has satisfied all of the escrow release conditions, including (i) the completion or satisfaction or waiver of all conditions precedent (other than funding) to the completion of the Acquisitions (as defined herein); (ii) SLANG obtaining a receipt for its final (long-form) prospectus dated January 17, 2019 (the “Prospectus”); and (iii) SLANG obtaining conditional approval from the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) for the listing of the common shares in the capital of SLANG (the “Common Shares”) on the CSE. In connection with the delivery of the Escrow Release Notice, the escrowed funds held by the Subscription Receipt Agent, less certain commissions and expenses, have been released from escrow in order to allow SLANG to, among other things, acquire: (i) all of the interests and equity in National Concessions Group, Inc. (“Organa Brands”) from the existing security holders of Organa Brands (the “Organa Brands Acquisition”); and (ii) all of the interests and equity in NWT Holdings, LLC (“Firefly”) from the existing security holders of Firefly (the “Firefly Acquisition” and together with the Organa Brands Acquisition, the “Acquisitions”). Additionally, pursuant to the Organa Brands Acquisition, the Company has been granted an option to acquire all of the outstanding securities of Allied Concessions Group Inc. (“ACG”) and an option to acquire all of the outstanding securities of NS Holdings, Inc. (“NCG”).  NSH and ACG are state licensed entities with cannabis related operations further up the supply chain. “These transactions establish SLANG as a leading consumer packaged goods company in the cannabis industry,” said Peter Miller, SLANG Co-Founder and CEO. “We’re on the frontier of one of the greatest opportunities in the history of consumer packaged goods.” The Acquisitions will complement SLANG’s portfolio of brands in the global cannabis industry, which includes a right of first refusal to license the Green House Brands (Green House Seed Co. and Strain Hunters) in the United States. Management believes that SLANG’s portfolio of brands is uniquely positioned to thrive in the highly competitive cannabis market, as each brand is built on intellectual property with a proven track record of success. The Company will continue to develop and market best-selling branded products that provide the high quality and consistency valued by loyal and prospective consumers. SLANG’s products can now be found in over 2,600 stores across 10 US states and 14 countries. “We believe that the greatest value in the industry will be created by strong brands that are widely distributed, and our strategy reflects that belief,” said Billy Levy, Co-Founder and President. “SLANG expects to compete at the highest levels in mature cannabis markets while maintaining minimal exposure to commodity cannabis production.” Conversion of the Subscription Receipts In connection with the delivery of the Escrow Release Notice, 43,998,590 Subscription Receipts were automatically converted, without any further consideration or action by the holders thereof, into 43,998,590 Common Shares and 21,999,281 common share purchase warrants (the “Warrants”). Each Warrant is exercisable into one Common Share at an exercise price of C$2.25 for a period of 24 months commencing on the date that the Common Shares are listed on the CSE, subject to certain acceleration and adjustment provisions, as described in the Prospectus.

TORONTO, July 20, 2018 /CNW/ - Fire Cannabis Inc. (doing business as SLANG Worldwide) (the "Company" or "SLANG") is pleased to announce that the Company has engaged Canaccord Genuity Corp. ("Canaccord Genuity") and Clarus Securities Inc. as co-lead agents and co-bookrunners on behalf of a syndicate of agents, including GMP Securities L.P. and Paradigm Capital Inc. (collectively, the "Agents") in connection with a best efforts private placement offering of subscription receipts (the "Subscription Receipts") at a price of $1.50 per Subscription Receipt (the "Issue Price") for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $50,000,000 (the "Offering"). PowerOne Capital Markets Ltd. and XIB Financial are acting as special advisors to the Company in connection with the Offering. The net proceeds from the Offering will be applied to fuel the Company's growth as it pursues investment and M&A opportunities for strategic cannabis consumer packaged goods and distribution-related assets. A portion of the net proceeds will also be used to satisfy the cash consideration payable in connection with the Organa Brands Transaction and Firefly Transaction (each as defined herein). Further details relating to the Subscription Receipts and the Offering are set out below. CORPORATE UPDATE SLANG is proposing to complete a series of transactions with the aim of cementing its position as an operator of some of the world's best cannabis brands and distribution assets. The proposed addition of these assets to SLANG's industry-leading platform will significantly advance the Company's strategy of pairing a leading brand portfolio with the world's most extensive distribution network. Already strategically aligned with three of the largest and most recognized cannabis companies in the world (Organa Brands, Canopy Growth Corporation, and Green House Brands), SLANG has gone a step further to deepen these relationships and has entered into a letter of intent with respect to the proposed acquisition of National Concessions Group, Inc. d/b/a Organa Brands ("Organa Brands" ) (the "Organa Brands Transaction") which will bring the Organa Brands brand portfolio, distribution organization and management under the SLANG umbrella. "We're proud to be building a company with real, seasoned operators like the team at Organa Brands. Organa Brands was one of the early pioneers in the space, and their ability to successfully launch brands across multiple markets in the United States is unmatched," said SLANG Co-founder and Director, Billy Levy. SLANG is also seeking to increase its international footprint, having executed a letter of intent to enter into a strategic partnership that will encompass a licensing and distribution arrangement with Canadian licensed producer Agripharm Corp. ("Agripharm") (a joint venture between Canopy Growth Corporation, Organa Brands, and Green House Seed Co.) (the "Agripharm Transaction"). Upon completion of the Agripharm Transaction, it is intended that Agripharm will produce products for SLANG's portfolio of brands and may distribute them into Canada and international markets, including Europe, South America, Africa, and Australia where such distribution is legal. The combined existing distribution capabilities of Organa Brands and Agripharm will provide the foundation for a nimble platform that will allow SLANG to quickly deploy brands, and understand consumer preferences, across multiple major markets around the world. In a rapidly evolving market rife with product and category innovation, the net proceeds of the Offering will significantly amplify SLANG's product portfolio, providing shareholders exposure to major product verticals. In addition to the brands proposed to be acquired through the Organa Brands Transaction. SLANG has entered into a letter of intent to acquire NWT Holdings, LLC d/b/a Firefly ("Firefly") (the "Firefly Transaction"), a leading premium vaporizer company, and has been granted an exclusive right of first refusal to license the historic Green House Brands portfolio of IP for use in the United States. "As entrepreneurs, innovators, and cultural observers, we've seen an incredible evolution take place within the legal cannabis industry," said Peter Miller, SLANG Co-founder and President. "We believe that we are uniquely positioned for success at a key inflection point for the evolving regulatory environment, capital markets and culture that drives the cannabis industry. Brands, distribution, and management proficiency will determine success; in these areas, we believe that SLANG is unmatched." SUMMARY OF TRANSACTIONS Organa Brands Transaction: SLANG, Organa Brands and each of the shareholders of Organa Brands have entered into a letter of intent in connection with the proposed acquisition of Organa Brands for cash and share consideration.
