“We are pleased to present the results of the second quarter and report the progress of our operations, which includes the increase in revenues and improvements in margins,” CEO Aras Azadian said. “During the quarter, we worked towards the closing of the acquisition of the Medical Cannabis by Shoppers business and prepared for the launch of the new medical cannabis care platform, MyMedi.ca, and continued to make advancements in our Canadian operations with a focus on our proprietary medical products.”

The company closed the previously announced acquisition of the Medical Cannabis by Shopper’s Business from Shoppers Drug Mart and launched an all-new medical cannabis care platform, MyMedi.ca, earlier this month.
