The company also reported a 42.9% increase in operating expenses, which totaled $6,306,703; the increase was primarily attributed to IPO- (“IPO”), marketing- and digital-related expenses. The company ended the quarter in a strong cash position, holding $17,074,030. In addition, HempFusion pointed to several business highlights in the report, including the completion of a $17 million initial public offering and the commencement of trading its stock on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”), marking the first time a U.S.-based CBD and wellness products company listed directly on the TSX. The company also launched its Probulin store on Amazon and became the no. 2 most recognized CBD brand in America according to Brightfield Group. “With nearly all international business paused due to COVID throughout 2020 and Q1 2021, and with slower than expected reopenings, the company still achieved an incremental QoQ growth of 7.6%,” said HempFusion co-founder and CEO Jason Mitchell, ND, in the press release. “Now, with vaccine rollouts taking place across the country, we are encouraged with reopening rates and excited that our sales, which currently take place in approximately 75% brick-and-mortar businesses, are beginning to reopen. We remain committed to developing new revenue channels and have entered additional countries including China, Ireland, and the United Kingdom, and we are excited with subsequent quarterly events in which new purchase orders were received, showing early signs of the return of international business. These international POs have the potential to drive millions in revenue.”
