City of Industry, Calif., July 18, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NetworkWire – Sugarmade, Inc. (OTC:SGMD), one of the largest publicly traded cannabis-related hydroponics supply companies, reiterates its $30 million revenue guidance for next fiscal year after filing results for fiscal Q2 2018. Additionally, the Company is announcing today the termination of its culinary business line in order to increase emphasis on its hyper-growth market opportunities.

Sugarmade continues on a strong growth trajectory, which is expected to allow the Company to produce revenue of at least $30 million for the fiscal year ending 2019, representing annual growth of over 500 percent. The aggressive growth rate is being driven by rapid expansion within the cannabis marketplace, in particular the cannabis cultivation sub-sector, where a majority of the Company's products are focused.

"Over the past year, we have significantly enhanced our operational staff and our internal systems preparing for our rapid growth,” Jimmy Chan, CEO of Sugarmade, said. “With these changes, we believe we are optimally sized, but we want to ensure we are able to manage our aggressively planned growth rate. To this end, we have determined our culinary products are no longer strategic to our goals and thus we are terminating the marketing of these products in order to increase our focus on our highest growth product areas, which is the cultivation-related cannabis sector.”

Sugarmade today filed its financials for its fiscal Q2 of 2017, with the Company planning on filing its remaining outstanding fiscal quarter over the very short term, thus restoring the Company to fully reporting status.

"We believe our growth-induced reporting challenges are now over, allowing this management team to demonstrate to our investors the aggressive growth we already are realizing and expect to report over the near term," Chan concluded.
