Management Commentary
“Overall, despite tough market conditions attributable to COVID-19 and SKU rationalization across various provinces, MYM continued to grow its revenue and generate positive EBITDA in the quarter,” said Michael Wiener, CEO of MYM. “Most importantly, on April 1, 2021, we announced a definitive agreement to merge with IMCC, a multi-country operator established in Israel, the EU and Canada. IMCC is a perfect complement to MYM, and as a stronger combined company we believe we are set to embark on the next chapter of growth and realization of value for our shareholders.”
Michael Wiener continues, “We maintain our conviction that a merger with IMCC is an excellent outcome for all MYM shareholders after a successful turnaround of the Company in the last year. The Transaction provides MYM with a platform for international distribution into Israel (currently the largest importer of cannabis globally) and the EU (expected to become the largest cannabis market globally), an expanded premium product portfolio, a diversified cultivation footprint, and strengthened management team. The IMCC team has done a tremendous job of building the needed infrastructure to distribute cannabis products globally, and we feel MYM is the perfect fit to fill the void that exists when it comes to ultra-premium, craft cultivated cannabis flower. As part of a larger company with greater access to capital, including IMCC’s NASDAQ listing, we believe the combined business will offer our shareholders the opportunity to participate in a world-class platform, enhance liquidity, and also position the combined business to be an acquirer in what we anticipate will be a consolidation phase for the cannabis industry. We are confident in the team we have at MYM, and we are excited to join what we feel is one of the strongest teams in the industry at IMCC. To date, we have received tremendous shareholder support for this Transaction.”
