$PVSP (“Pervasip” or the “Company”), a developer of companies and technologies in high value emerging markets, today announced the filing of its unaudited financial statements for its 3rd Quarter ended August 31, 2022.
“Q3 2022 shows material signs of improvement over Q2 2022 reflecting our ongoing operational focus. As stated before, we continue to pursue our strategic goals even during these difficult market conditions as evidenced by our recent agreements on terms for the acquisition of the Emerald City Cultivation and Dabco brands. Our operational and financial focus on rationalizing our business, shedding underperforming assets, and increasing production yields by our independent cultivators continues to proceed and have allowed us to continue with additional market share capture. Investing in Cannabis is not for the faint of heart and we believe we are building a solid foundation for years to come which takes time, patience, and relentless focus on fundamentals. In an industry that does not have access to traditional financing, our options are limited and expensive,” said German Burtscher, Pervasip’s CEO. “We slowed the rollout of our new concentrate brands which we licensed for Q3 deployment and instead focused on an outright acquisition as the opportunity became available. That resulted in not meeting the forecasted revenue from the new product lineup for Q3. We are also pursuing a conservative approach to working within the complicated tax environment our industry is confronted with. Ongoing work in support of the audit process and a recent court ruling that impacts the cannabis industry caused us to change our estimates for tax liability dating back to prior periods 2017 – 2020, which we booked in Q3.”
The Company continues to focus on moving available bulk inventory into higher margin brands with a focus on margin capture and is seeing promising early results.
Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Q3 2022 versus Q2 2022
Q3 2022 operating results improved over Q2 2022, tracking with ongoing efforts to shift bulk sales to higher margin brands combined with relative COGs reductions, even when adjusted for inventory.
