IL: Successful import of medical cannabis from Spain to Israel

IM Cannabis has announced that Focus Medical Herbs has successfully received its first shipment of medical cannabis from Linneo Health, an EU-GMP global supplier of medical cannabis-based in Spain. The strategic supply agreement between The Company and Linneo allows for the supply of medicinal cannabis products to both Europe and Israel. This first shipment of approximately 200kg of medical cannabis will be sold by Focus Medical under brands proprietary to IMC in Israel starting in June 2020.

Combined with Focus Medical's existing cultivation capacity, and the four previously announced supply agreements signed by Focus Medical in Israel, the imported cannabis will help fulfill the 33,075kg of IMC-branded medical cannabis to be distributed under binding sale agreements to Israeli pharmacies by Focus Medical over the next three years.

Oren Shuster, Chief Executive Officer of IMC commented, "Our vision is for IMC to become one of the world's leading medical cannabis brands and for this we require both strong domestic and international partners. These partners are critical to ensure consistent and high-quality supply of medical cannabis synonymous with the IMC brand. The successful import of medical cannabis by Focus Medical into Israel is a very significant milestone for IMC as it demonstrates that an international supply chain can be developed to satisfy growing demand for IMC-branded medical cannabis in Israel. This announcement is also indicative of further execution on our domestic strategy along side our international growth strategy. We firmly believe that we have the recipe for success and that shareholders will be rewarded through long-term value creation."

Details of Sales and Supply Agreements
IMC has previously announced that Focus Medical has signed six binding sales agreements for the distribution of IMC-branded medical cannabis products in Israel. Total consolidated revenue from all binding sales agreements in Israel is expected to be $193.5 million with an expected gross margin of 50% over the next three years. A total of 33,075kg of medical cannabis is expected to be delivered by Focus Medical to Israeli pharmacies between Q2 2020 and 2023, of which 3,000kg of the medical cannabis is expected to reach pharmacies in 2020.

The supply of medical cannabis to fulfill these pharmacy sales agreements is now fully contracted. Focus Medical has signed and announced supply agreements with Cannomed Medical Cannabis Industries, Intelicanna, Way of Life and Cannation to augment Focus Medical's own cultivation capacity and international supply from Linneo.
