VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 1, 2022 / Lotus Ventures Inc. (CSE:J)(OTC PINK:LTTSF) (“Lotus” or the “Company“), announced today financial results for its first fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2021. During the quarter the Company realized a slowdown in sales due to COVID limitations, supply chain disruptions and less volume of product purchased by wholesale partners. Our thoughts go out to the local farmers and growers that were also affected.
First Quarter Results:
Strain Development:
The Company has continued its in-house strain development with 30 varieties now germinated for testing. Lotus plans on transitioning to a second high THC premium strain which is expected to be submitted during an upcoming product listing call with a provincial wholesaler.
Outlook for 2022:
The Company remains focused on improving its sales position and liquidity throughout the coming year. The Company is currently in discussions with three licensed producer’s which are interested in Lotus wholesale flower supply. In addition to continuing wholesale efforts, Lotus is expecting to allocate a portion of its production to its own pre-roll and flower offerings to diversify sales into the recreational market.
In January, Kolab Project launched a 10 pack of 0.35-gram Lotus grown Kalifornia pre-rolls on the Ontario Cannabis Store which is expected to be another strong selling offering. In aggregate, Lotus and Kolab have launched a 3.5-gram flower offering, a 14-gram flower offering, and a 10 pack of 0.35-gram pre-roll offering.
The Company’s priorities moving forward this year are:
