Tetra Bio-Pharma Inc. Receives Notice of Authorization from Health Canada for the Conduct of its Clinical Trial with its PPTGR topical product $TBP.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:44 AM on Wednesday, February 1st, 2017

Tbp large

  • Received a Notice of Authorization from the Therapeutic Products Directorate, Health Canada, for its planned clinical trial for PhytoPain Topical Gel Relief
  • Being developed as a locally administered therapeutic for the treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Neuropathic Pain

OTTAWA, ONTARIO-(Feb. 1, 2017) – PhytoPain Pharma Inc. (“PPP”), a subsidiary of Tetra Bio-Pharma (“Tetra” or the “Company“) (CSE:TBP), a pharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing therapeutic cannabis-based products for the treatment of pain and other medical conditions announces that it has received a Notice of Authorization from the Therapeutic Products Directorate, Health Canada, for its planned clinical trial for PhytoPain Topical Gel Relief (“PPTGR”), being developed as a locally administered therapeutic for the treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Neuropathic Pain (“CIPN”).

CIPN is a common adverse effect of cancer therapy and a frequent reason why cancer patients stop their treatment early. For some patients, the severity of the symptoms can be reduced by lowering the dose of chemotherapy or temporarily stopping it. In other patients the symptoms of CIPN may last for months or years after the cancer therapy has stopped. CIPN symptoms are managed using the same analgesics used to manage other types of neuropathic pain. Some of these analgesics also cause intolerable side effects in patients. The use of a topical counterirritant may help reduce the symptoms of CIPN and avoid exposing some patients to oral neuropathic pain analgesics.

The Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) has not reviewed this news release and does not accept responsibility for its adequacy or accuracy.

  • Recorded record quarterly revenue of $2,087,188, an increase of 77.6% from the first quarter of 2016;
  • Generated gross profit of $683,016, an increase of 75.9% from the first quarter of 2016;
  • Expanded the customer list to over 250,000 individuals producing monthly traffic of approximately 600,000 site visits in November

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Jan. 30, 2017) – Namaste Technologies Inc. (“Namaste” or the “Company“) (CSE:N)(CSE:N.CN)(FRANKFURT:M5BQ) is pleased to announce the filing of its unaudited quarterly financial statements, management’s discussion and analysis, and certification of the quarterly filings for the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The statements for the period can be accessed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

The operational and financial highlights for the period include the following:

  • Recorded record quarterly revenue of $2,087,188, an increase of 77.6% from the first quarter of 2016;
  • Generated gross profit of $683,016, an increase of 75.9% from the first quarter of 2016;
  • Expanded the customer list to over 250,000 individuals producing monthly traffic of approximately 600,000 site visits in November;
  • Closed the acquisition of the assets of URT1 Limited, which comprised its Everyonedoesit business (“Everyonedoesit”) and raised approximately $3.5 million of capital; and
  • Appointed experienced members to the management team and board.

Financial Results

During the financial reporting period from September 1, 2016 to November 30, 2016, the Company focused efforts on further expanding its traffic and customer base, growing revenues, integrating the asset acquisitions of VaporSeller and Everyonedoesit, and securing capital to expand operations. Because of these focused initiatives, the Company achieved the following financial results:

  • Net revenue of $2,087,188 (Q1 2016 – $1,175,341), an increase of 77.6% as compared to the first quarter of 2016. These financial results include net revenues for a 44-day period from the Everyonedoesit asset acquisition, which produced revenue of $316,460. On a gross basis (prior to adjustments for refunds, discounts and charge backs), the revenues for the period were $2,460,738, an increase of $373,550 to net revenues. These adjustments are anticipated to normalize as the Company has now integrated the acquisition of VaporSeller and URT1, which is anticipated to result in a higher net revenue going forward.
  • Cost of sales of $1,404,172 (Q1 2016 – $787,008), which resulted in a gross profit of $683,016 (Q1 2016 – $388,333). As a percentage of sales, the gross margin was 32.7% compared to 33.0% in the first quarter of 2016. Going forward, the Company is optimizing its product mix to include higher margin glassware, private label products such as the Gurutm and related product accessories, products sourced from larger volume manufacturers, and driving higher average purchase prices from the VaporSeller and URT1 acquisitions.
  • Operating costs of $1,580,087 (Q1 2016 – $513,977), an increase of 207.4% as compared to the first quarter of 2016. This increase in operating costs includes non-cash and currency expenses of $71,416. These costs relate to share based compensation and foreign exchange movements in the Company’s source currencies including the British Pound and Euro. In addition, were non-recurring legal expenses of $175,000 related to the URT1 acquisition and financing. After adjusting for these numbers, management estimates total operating costs of $1,333,671 for the period. In addition to these expenditures, the Company has also incurred costs associated with positioning the business for scalability and the administration of its public listing.
  • Comprehensive loss of $(897,072) (Q1 2016 – $(125,644)). Going forward, management anticipates sales growth to strengthen from organic revenue generation and completed acquisitions, cost of sales to reduce due to higher volume purchases and optimization of the product portfolio, and operating costs to reduce as a result of normalized operations, which management anticipates to result in profitability and positive cash flow generation in fiscal 2017.

Management Commentary

Sean Dollinger, President and CEO of Namaste, comments: “The first quarter of 2017 represents substantial financial progress. In the first quarter, our team obtained these results while integrating multiple acquisitions and fulfilling orders during some of our most active months. Going forward, we continue to streamline operations, including optimizing our websites, human resources, and distribution networks, and believe our financial results will continue to reflect the value we have created for shareholders.”

eSports: Facebook takes over from ESPN2 $GMBL

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 3:08 PM on Thursday, January 26th, 2017
Arizona State's 2016 "Heroes of the Dorm" national championship computer gaming team during the final game.

“Facebook provides a great opportunity to offer this experience to new viewers around the globe and with a new level of engagement,” said Blizzard’s college eSports lead Adam Rosen. “We were very happy with the two years spent working with ESPN on the program and look forward to another great year with Facebook.”

A Facebook spokesperson said the social media site will enable viewers to engage with each other around the world in real time in addition to providing statistics, team and player profiles.

Heroes of the Dorm is structured like the NCAA basketball season. The regular season, or group play, happens on the last two weekends of February and the first weekend of March. Regional competition takes place March 4-9 to narrow the field to 64 five-player teams, the same number as the NCAA tournament.

At that point teams are put into a single-elimination bracket that leads to the “Heroic Four” and national championship, both played on April 8.

College students have begun registering for this year’s competition, which was won in 2015 by UC Berkeley and last year by Arizona State. This year’s tournament includes $500,000 in scholarships and prizes.
