/PRNewswire/ – Cansortium Inc. (“Cansortium” or the “Company”) (CSE: TIUM.U), (OTCQB: CNTMF), a vertically-integrated provider of premium-quality medical cannabis operating under the Fluent™ brand, announced that it has exceeded its previously stated year-end 2020 Florida revenue guidance by

$1.9 million

. The Company reported

Florida

revenues, which account for 88% of its consolidated revenues, of

$13.4 million

for Q4 and approximately

$46.9 million

for the full year ended

December 31

, 2020.  The Company was one of the first operators in

Florida

to successfully roll out a line of edible products starting in

October 2020

, which contributed to the strong Q4 results.

“We are pleased with the strong performance in our

Florida

operations and the investment that we have made at our

Sweetwater

cultivation facility will provide sufficient product to support our growth initiatives. We are on schedule to begin receiving cannabis from our new 26,000 sq. ft. facility next month. In addition, work has begun to expand our

Sweetwater

greenhouse by an additional 40,000 sq. ft. which will be completed in Q2″, said Chief Executive Officer

Robert Beasley

.

In addition, Cansortium reports that it has successfully completed harvesting its 2020 Michigan crop, which produced in excess of 4,000 pounds of sellable cannabis.  Approximately 15% of the resulting biomass from this harvest was sold in the fourth quarter of 2020. “The quality of the

Michigan

cannabis we have grown has allowed the Company to be patient and capitalize on the strength in pricing in

Michigan

for wholesale cannabis. We intend to sell at least 30% of the remaining product as flower and anticipate completing the sale of this entire harvest by the end of April,” said Beasley.

The Company also announced today that it has hired

Patricia Fonseca

to serve as Chief Financial Officer.  Mrs. Fonseca joins Cansortium from The Service Companies, Inc., a service provider to the hospitality, gaming and facility services industries, where she was employed since 2011, most recently as its Chief Financial Officer.  Previously, she worked at Springs Global US and Ernst & Young in the Transactions Advisory Services group. Before this, she spent 8 years in the audit functions of BDO in the US and

Australia

, and Deloitte in Brazil.  Mrs. Fonseca is a Certified Public Accountant in both

the United States

and

Brazil

.

“It is my pleasure to welcome Patricia to the team,” said Chairman of the Board,

Neal Hochberg

.  “Patricia will replace interim Chief Financial Officer

Henry Batievsky

, who will retain his duties as Chief Production Officer. Patricia will be a perfect complement to our executive team which, in addition to Robert and Henry, includes

Todd Buchman

as Chief Legal Officer and

Samantha Senne

as Executive Vice President of Operations. Patricia brings experience and insight from other industries which will benefit our management team above and beyond her abilities as a CFO.”
