Refining Product Line

The launch of Mango CBD Relief underscores Plus Products push for value in the burgeoning edibles market. With the launch, the company is poised to retire Pineapple Coconut CBD, another best-selling edible.The launch also underscores how Product Plus is slowly becoming a household name in California’s burgeoning cannabis edible marketplace.

“California’s consumers have made PLUS a leading cannabis brand in the State. Direct feedback from consumers in California, which is the largest and most competitive cannabis market in the world, will enable brands like PLUS to have a significant product edge when launching products in other jurisdictions,” said Jake Heimark, CEO of PLUS.

Revenue Growth

The launch could not have come at a better time given that Product Plus is fresh from reporting stellar preliminary results for the fiscal period ended December 31, 2018. With the company expecting revenues of $8.4 million for the full year, the same would represent a 684% year over year increase. Revenue for Q4 is expected at $3.4 million, representing a 32% increase.Revenue growth throughout the fiscal year was mostly driven by sales of the Plus product line made up of four full-time SKUs and one rotational seasonal The unaudited financial results also indicate that the company’s balance sheet more than doubled to $22.9 million from $11.1 million.

“We are proud that in a year where the greater legal California cannabis market shrank and underperformed expectations, PLUS had significant growth in both revenue and market share. For the legal industry to grow and thrive, regulation needs to be uniform and clear so that businesses of all sizes can adapt, and we hope that in 2019 increased enforcement and regulatory clarity will help drive growth,” explained Mr. Heimark.
