Recent developments

Namaste technologies market sentiments have turned positive if a spike in share price as well as market activity, from the $0.39 level is anything to go by. The spike could as well be as a result of investors taking note of the strategic investments the company has made as it seeks to safeguard its long-term prospects amidst underlying woes.

Strategic Investments

In March, the company moved to expand its footprint into the edibles market with the acquisition of a 49% stake in Choklat for $1.5 million. The transaction provides the company with access to a premium chocolate manufacturer with a robust sales network both online and through a network of distributors across Canada.According to interim CEO Meni Morim, the transaction accords Namaste Technologies the security of supply and manufacturing. It should also provide capacity for the recreational market, once cannabis edibles become legal later in the year.

“Choklat is a great acquisition for us with a vast offering of existing products that can be easily infused with THC or CBD and sold as edibles. Their small batch manufacturing model is a great fit within the new proposed regulations for edible cannabis products,” explained Mr. Morim.

Namaste Technologies has since followed the investment in Choklat with yet another investment in Pineapple Express Delivery. The acquisition of a 49% stake in the Toronto-based cannabis Delivery Company should strengthen Namaste cannabis distribution network.With the investment, Namaste should be able to get medicinal cannabis, to customers in the greater Toronto area with ease. The investment also underscores the company’s growth strategy that focuses on investing in innovative companies capable of bringing value and access to a broader target market.Even as Namaste Technology embarks on an investment drive, its sentiments in the market continue to take a hit on failure to post financial results for the year ended November 30, 2018. The company has had to appoint a new auditor as it seeks to complete an audit of its books of account.
