Podcasts about harvest health

In this episode of The Cannabis Business Coach Podcast, host Michael Zaytsev (Professor Z) talks with Zach Kobrin, Partner at Saul Ewing LLP and the former General Counsel who steered Trulieve's $2.1 billion acquisition of Harvest Health, the largest completed deal in U.S. cannabis history. Zack traces his journey from helping win one of Florida's inaugural licenses to quarterbacking multi-state M&A at break-neck speed. He explains why NASDAQ and the NYSE are the biggest brake on industry growth, breaks down the booming yet fragile market for hemp-derived Delta-9 products, and shares the deal-making lessons every operator, investor, and advisor should know before the next consolidation wave hits. The conversation also covers the rise of hemp-derived THC products, the logistical challenges for new mainstream entrants like Edible Arrangements, and the differences in lobbying power between the hemp and marijuana sectors of the industry. The episode concludes with Zach offering advice for entrepreneurs on choosing a lawyer and his key takeaways from negotiating major deals in the cannabis space. Topics Discussed:

Conversation with Dr. Mark Stephany discussing why one should care about their health and take ownership of it through the power of lifestyle as medicine.Topics of Discussion:-Overlap between the traditional medical space and lifestyle medicine-Understanding the Lifestyle Determinants (Pillars) of Health-Differences between functional medicine and lifestyle medicineDr. Mark Stephany is a board-certified internal medicine physician and American College of Lifestyle Medicine-certified diplomat who has practiced hospital-based medicine for 12 years. The choice for Dr. Mark to lead a healthier life came down to two reasons. One, if he was going to tell his patients to eat better and exercise more, he'd better be practicing what he preached. And two, since he didn't have the best genetics when it came to cardiovascular disease, he did not want to put his family through what he saw his parents and grandparents deal with as it related to their health and happiness. He chose to practice lifestyle medicine because it gives him the opportunity to make a world of difference in other people's lives within the space of just a few sessions.Links:Website: Sound Lifestyle Medicine          Book a ConsultationPodcast: Sound Lifestyle Medicine Podcast Lifestyle Medicine Information: American College of Lifestyle MedicineDr. Mark Stephany's Book: Sovereign Health: Reclaim Your Health and Your LifeThank you to our sponsors Human Powered Health, The Minnesota Institute of Ayurveda and Harvest Health & Wellbeing that make this episode possible.Well Connected Twin Cities is connecting you with local health and wellness professionals in your community.

Sweet Dreams Vineyard has officially launched two alcohol-free adult drinks made with THC just in time for 4/20, the unofficial holiday every April 20 celebrating marijuana. Cannabernet and Marijuarita are manufactured in Arizona and sold at Valley dispensaries, using cutting-edge nano-emulsification technology and all-natural juices to create an enjoyable adult experience. They're healthier alternatives to drinking traditional wines or smoking cannabis, provide a quick and consistent effect, and aid in sleep and pain management. Smoking cannabis has numerous downsides, and can be unacceptable in some social settings,” said Bill Gibbs, founder of Sweet Dreams Vineyard. “And traditional edibles can take up to two hours to work.” Sweet Dreams Vineyards provides the social enjoyment of a quick-acting alcoholic beverage and the relaxation of cannabis without the health risks of either. Gibbs served as president of the University of Phoenix and senior vice president of the Apollo Group, Inc. from 1985 to 1998 and led the company from a privately owned business to a NASDAQ publicly traded company. In 2012 he transitioned to the cannabis industry and founded Urban Greenhouse Dispensary in Phoenix and served as its CEO until he sold the company to Harvest Health and Recreation in 2019.

Cannabis stocks rallied for a second day last Wednesday, buoyed by a historic congressional committee passage of a bill that aims to lift the federal ban on weed, as well as strong gains for Curaleaf after it posted a narrower-than-expected third-quarter loss.  Curaleaf’s U.S.-listed shares CURLF, +15.23% CURA, +15.07% were last up 15%, as investors shrugged off its revenue miss. The Massachusetts-based company posted a loss of $6.8 million, or a penny a share, versus losses of $33.7 million, or 9 cents a share in the year-ago period. Revenue rose to $61.8 million from $21.4 million. Analysts polled by FactSet had expected losses of 2 cents a share on revenue of $63.6 million.  GMP analyst Robert Fagan, who rates the stock a buy, said the numbers were “largely in line with our relatively high expectations.” The revenue number was below his estimate of $67 million.  He highlighted positives, including good cost control, a sequential rise in sales and that vaping fears had only a mue effect on Select’s sales in the quarter. The company acquired the Select brand in May for CS1.27 billion ($954.7 million).  Read now: As pot stocks sink, these two guys just raised $120 million to buy Don’t miss: All the excuses cannabis companies are making for an ugly crop of earnings MKM analyst Bill Kirk raised his fair-value estimate on the stock to C$8 from C$6 but stuck with his neutral rating on the stock.  “Admittedly, after weak earnings reports for most of the sector, it feels nice to use positive numbers when talking about Curaleaf’s profitability,” the analyst wrote in a note. “However, we still can’t quite get there on valuation.” Sentiment on Wednesday was boosted after the House Judiciary Committee voted in favor of the Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement (MORE) Act, which looks to remove the federal ban on cannabis and expunge past convictions.  Read: Aurora Cannabis stock suffers worst day in more than five years, analyst says ‘it would be fair for investors not to believe them’ The bill, which is being introduced by Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler, a New York Democrat, passed Wednesday by a 24-10 vote in favor. “The Senate will take its own time, but then the Senate always does,” Nadler said at a press conference on Tuesday to introduce the bill. He also aimed to sound upbeat ahead of Wednesday’s markup session for the bill: “The energy and the political pressure from the various states is growing rapidly. The Senate is subject to that, too. We’ll accomplish this.” Also read: House panel passes bill that aims to legalize marijuana, but top Democrat concedes ‘Senate will take its own time.’ In company news, Harvest Health & Recreation Inc. HRVSF, +8.07% HARV, +6.64% became the latest cannabis company to scale back a previously agreed deal, its plan to buy cannabis licenses in Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey and Maryland from CannaPharmacy Inc. in a deal originally priced at $88 million in cash.  See now: Canada tells cannabis companies to improve disclosures of cross-holdings Instead, the companies have agreed that Harvest Health will acquire Franklin Labs LLC, a unit of CannaPharmacy, for $26 million that will be split between $15 million in cash and an $11 million promissory note. Harvest Chief Executive Jason Vedadi said the new terms will help the company advance its revenue and profitability goals.  Cannabis stocks are still going through a period of retrenchment after a deep slump in stock prices. Many companies are revising deal terms, cutting costs and considering asset sales as the legal market is developing more slowly than expected and companies continue to post losses. Harvest made the announcement as it posted a third-quarter loss of $39.1 million, or 14 cents a share, wider than the $453,000 loss posted in the year-earlier period. The company did not offer a per-share loss number for the year-earlier. Revenue rose to $33.2 million from $11.2 million. There are too few FactSet estimates to offer a reliable consensus. In a similar move, Neptune Wellness Solutions Inc. NEPT, +1.11% NEPT, +3.30%said Wednesday it has reached a mutual agreement with Canopy Growth Corp.CGC, +13.21% WEED, +15.66% to amend and restate their cannabis-processing agreement. The parties have agreed to an amended schedule of processing volumes committed to Neptune by Canopy and to the removal of certain preferential rights granted Canopy related to Neptune’s capacity and pricing.  “Effective June 30, 2020, volume and pricing will be negotiated between the two parties based on market conditions,” Neptune said in a statement. The 3-year term of the deal remains intact. Neptune’s U.S.-listed shares were down 3.7%, while Canopy was up about 12%.

But with that shift has also come a lot of false information, completely unsubstantiated claims, and doctors offices popping up everywhere to prescribe marijuana.What is the truth and what is the bs? How exactly does this stuff work and what does does it legitimately treat? And most importantly, how do you know you are seeing a legit doctor versus a clinic that just hands you a card? All of these questions are too important to not answer so our cannabis correspondent and sponsor Don Buccilla with Cannagroup hooked us up with Green Harvest Health's owner and clinician Dr Bridget Williams to straighten out the truth with medical marijuana and everything you need to know as a current or potential patient.

So good to catch up with Kevin George, the new CMO of Harvest Health & Recreation, Inc. – a vertically integrated public cannabis company. That’s right, a cannabis company. Kevin has spent the past 20+ years in global leading roles at Unilever, Beam Suntory and the marketing agency Mosaic. He is taking his plethora of experience, knowledge and relationship into one of, if not, THE fastest growing industries in the United States. He now has the chance to build a slew of brands from scratch – ones they have acquired and others they are incubating. They have raised nearly $300 million to capitalize the business and as he says, this is like the day after prohibition for the alcohol industry. The opportunity is immense with no clear leader. There are challenges ahead, it is a state-by-state industry that is not federally legal (yet). As he always does, he also shares great wisdom for Miami students in the pod.

Steve White, CEO. Steve co-founded Harvest in 2011. He quickly learned that he had the ability to help shape a company that gave people control over an aspect of their life where they previously had very little – their health and wellness. This led Steve to instill a culture of education and empowerment at Harvest to provide patients with much-needed products, resources, and support. As Harvest’s CEO, Steve is responsible for license acquisition, start-up, operations, and organizational direction and strategy.   480-494-2261 or investors@harvestinc.com   Harvest Health & Recreation Inc. currently holds medical cannabis licenses in eleven states and participates in a variety of ways for each facility, from full ownership and operation to design-build expertise and operational consultation. Our aggressive expansion efforts include seeking licenses in other states and exploring opportunities abroad.   Green CulturED Cannabis Industry Training & eLearning Solutions: Join Now...
