The Company believes global patent protection is a key aspect of developing defendable intellectual property (“IP“) around the most efficient methods for producing high-purity THC and CBD oils within a regulated environment.
With the medical cannabis market in Israel continuing to grow along with the tailwind of legalization, Nextleaf views Israel as a key jurisdiction for cannabinoid IP rights. In December 2020, Israel signed a regulatory amendment permitting the use of CBD in cosmetics and food products. According to the Israeli Medical Cannabis Association, there are over 71,000 legal medical cannabis patients, in addition to an estimated $2 Billion in illicit cannabis consumption in Israel.
“This Israeli patent is a validation of our technology and is significant in achieving our vision of developing IP that improves cannabis oil economics globally,” said Paul Pedersen, CEO of Nextleaf Solutions.
Nextleaf owns one of the largest portfolios of issued U.S. patents related to cannabis extraction, and has been issued patents in Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Colombia, South Africa, Cambodia, Israel, Germany, the U.K. and across Europe.
The Company is focused commercializing its portfolio of issued and pending patents through licensing of IP (royalties), processing services, and bulk sales of CBD and THC oils to qualified Canadian and international partners.
Nextleaf Issues Shares and Options
Nextleaf has issued an aggregate of 383,428 common shares at a price of $0.285 per share, representing an aggregate value of $109,277, to consultants of the Company, as compensation for services provided.
Nextleaf also issued an aggregate of 560,000 stock options to the non-executive employees, each option exercisable for five years at an exercise price of $0.35.
