EXMceuticals Inc. Secures Supply & Offtake Agreements-In-Principle for Proposed Portugal Refinery
May 07 2020 - 8:00AM
EXMceuticals
Inc. (CSE:
EXM)
(FSE: A2PAW2), (the
"Company" or "
EXM"), an emerging
producer of refined cannabis ingredients serving the
pharmaceutical, medical, nutraceutical, and cosmetic industries,
has secured a supply agreement-in-principle of
pharmaceutical/medical grade cannabis ingredients totalling a
minimum of 8,400 litres of extracts in 2021.
EXM signed these agreements to ensure access to
GMP-compliant pharmaceutical and medical grade cannabis for its
planned Portugal-based refinery. EXM has also signed an outline LOI
with one of these counterparties for the offtake of the eventual
supply of finished ingredients.
Farmceutica Wellness, a supplier of
medical-grade CBD ingredients, will initially supply up to 4,200 kg
of pharmaceutical grade cannabis ingredients to EXM annually.
EXM intends to purchase up to 9,400 kg annually after the refinery
is fully equipped. A separate LOI is under negotiation for bulk THC
importation. Farmceutica also signed an outline LOI that will give
it the ability to distribute the refined cannabinoids manufactured
in the refinery, with a focus on the active pharmaceutical
ingredients.
These agreements will provide sufficient input
material to begin operations at EXM's facility as soon as it
becomes operational. Assuming the required funding is received,
this is expected to be in Q1 2021. The refinery will turn raw
material and extract into pure finished ingredient products, all
under EU-GMP. Distillates, isolates and active pharmaceuticals
ingredients will initially be sold on a B2B basis. Once revenues
are achieved EXM will then seek to enhance revenues by creating
final customer products that have been formulated in the existing
R&D laboratory in Lisbon.
EXM is in discussions with other selected
emerging producers of GMP compliant cannabis in Portugal, and
around the world, that will produce extract to the highest quality
standards. This position in the middle of the supply chain, will
hopefully allow EXM to emerge as the largest contract manufacturer
for the European medical market, either on a principle or toll
basis.
"These outline supply arrangements are an
important step for EXM, as we continue to establish our business
model. Securing high quality source materials from stable sources
is a key component, and we have faith these groups will be
meaningful partners of ours. EXM is now focused on industrial
purification, refining and extraction, coupled with a meaningful
R&D operation. We aim to be a trusted European source of
high-quality cannabis products for the growing demand of the
pharmaceuticals and medical Industries. We are eager to work
closely with Farmceutica and to provide consistent product to our
future clients," said CEO Jonathan Summers.
