The conversion ratio of Namaste Vapes was 1.91% in July 2017. This compares with 1.96% in June 2017 and 1.76% in July 2016. Traffic consisted of 103,918 visitors in July 2017, representing a significant increase in comparison with 43,350 visitors in July 2016 and 94,139 visitors in June 2017.

The conversion ratio of EveryoneDoesit was 0.86% in July 2017. This compares with 0.87% in June 2017 and 1.05% in July 2016. Traffic consisted of 260,459 visitors in July 2017 repersenting an 11% decline in comparison with 292,423 visitors in July 2016 and a 5% increase in comparison with 247,717 visitors in June 2017. The EveryoneDoesit site was moved from Magento to the Shopify platform in the first quarter of 2017 which caused a slowdown in traffic. The trend shows that the lowest point in traffic was passed in April 2017 and the migration to Shopify has started to show results, hence the month on month increase.

The conversion ratio of Australian Vaporizers was 3.92% in July 2017. This compares with 4.50% in June 2017 and 4.52% in July 2016. Traffic consisted of 47,903 visitors in July 2017, a substantial increase in comparison with 33,420 visitors in July 2016 and 45,040 visitors in June 2017. We believe that the decline in conversion ratio is temporary as Australian Vaporizers moved to the Shopify platform last month. The transition to another platform typically disrupts traffic.

Issued and Outstanding Shares of the Company

During the month of July 2017, the issued and outstanding share amount increased by 822,667 common shares of the Company, resulting from the exercise of warrants.
