We believe that this performance has the Company firmly on track to achieving its general profitability goals for the year.”

Andy Williams, Chairperson of Medicine Man Technologies’ Board of Directors added, “We are keenly focused on our evolution into a Cannabis or “plant touching” related operating company and feel that next year will provide for an extraordinary opportunity for license holders here in Colorado to flourish.  We will initially be exploring equity and operating opportunities outside of Colorado and have already begun to provide initial corporate development strategy services to several businesses here in Colorado in anticipation of a re-vitalized HB 18-1011 initiative moving into 2019.  We truly believe the balance of 2018 and moving into 2019 will provide us with a significant number of new opportunities to expand our business both here in the US as well as internationally."
