We started this company in 2014 with the intention of becoming Canada’s Cannabis Company. With the granting of AB Laboratories Inc.’s sales license and the progress being made on the Phase 2 production facility at Acreage Pharms Ltd.’s, key constructions milestones in the drive towards that intent are being achieved. This dramatically advances our timeline for increasing our annual run-rate production capacity at our facilities to 26,000 kg in 2018 in time for the adult-use market. Invictus MD’s current cash balance is approximately $32 million.
The Company also reports that it has granted 1,100,000 incentive stock options to directors and consultants of the Company. The stock options are exercisable for a period of five years at an exercise price of $1.84 per share. The options were granted under, and are subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Stock Option Plan.
