International Cannabis Announces Inclusion to the Horizons HMMJ ETF
25 Março 2019 - 1:05AM
ICC International Cannabis Corp. (CSE: WRLD.U)(FWB:
8K51)(OTC: WLDCF) ("ICC" or
“International
Cannabis” or the
“Company”) is pleased to
announce its inclusion in the Horizons Medical Marijuana Life
Sciences ETF (TSX: HMMJ) (the "ETF") as part of the quarterly
rebalance of the constituent holdings of HMMJ. Inclusion in the ETF
is as a significant milestone for ICC, as the Company continues to
establish itself as the world’s premier, vertically integrated pure
cannabis play.
According to Horizons ETFs, "As at September 5, 2018, HMMJ had
reached over C$1 billion in assets under management, a rare
achievement for the Canadian ETF marketplace." 1
Eugene Beukman, Chief Executive Officer and a Director of
International Cannabis, stated: “We are elated to be included in
the HMMJ; the largest cannabis focused ETF offering direct exposure
for investors to North American life sciences companies.
International Cannabis is at the epicentre of the global cannabis
industry and is uniquely positioned to capture significant market
share as the global THC and CBD industries continue to mature.
“The Company will continue to optimize its upstream, downstream
and distribution capabilities while integrating operational best
practices into its medical plant production, extraction, active
pharmaceutical ingredient isolation and finished dose manufacturing
operations.”
HMMJ seeks to replicate, to the extent possible, the performance
of the North American Marijuana Index (the "Index"), net of
expenses. The Index is designed to provide exposure to the
performance of a basket of North American publicly listed life
sciences companies with significant business activities in the
marijuana industry.
Only stocks that meet minimum asset and liquidity thresholds are
eligible for inclusion in the Index. Stocks are rebalanced
quarterly on a market-capitalization basis and capped so that no
single stock can exceed 10% of the weight of the Index when
rebalanced.
ICC also announces that under the terms of its previously
announced licensing agreement with Authentic Brands Group (“ABG”),
the Company will issue common shares of ICC with a value of US$2
million to ABG. The Company will also issue common shares of ICC
with a value of US$15 million to Cannabis Lifestyle Partners
(“CLP”). The valuation of the shares will be based upon the five
day VWAP of ICC’s common shares for the five trading sessions prior
to the announcement of the licensing agreement.
International Cannabis also clarifies that it has the option to
extend its initial 10-year agreement with ABG for an additional
40-year term.
