Management Commentary

Sean Dollinger, President and CEO of Namaste, comments: “The purchase of this remaining earn-out obligation provides Namaste additional cash flow to reinvest into our operations. The VaporSeller customer list of over 150,000 individuals and domains represent a strong foothold for Namaste in the US market and we now control these assets without any future obligations. The principals of Haze will continue to work with Namaste as we assume full operational management of the site.”
