MissionIRNewsBreaks – Sunniva (CSE: SNN) (OTCQX: SNNVF) Considered Undervalued by Investment Researchers


Sunniva (CSE: SNN) (OTCQX: SNNVF) was recently covered in a publication by Beacon Securities Limited that argued that Sunniva is significantly undervalued. An article further discussing the company reads: “Cannabis supplier Sunniva Inc.’s (CSE: SNN) (OTCQX: SNNVF) strengthening foothold in California’s and Canada’s consumer-populated markets has been failing to translate to its stock price and market cap since it began trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange and the U.S. OTCQX® Best Market in January, leading investment researchers at Beacon Securities Limited (http://ibn.fm/K5a88) to classify Sunniva’s public offering as a “badly mispriced” listing that could reward investors who buy in at undervalued levels reported at the time of its July 30 market update, titled ‘Sunniva Inc. (CSE: SNN) California Dreams Have Never Been This Cheap’.  …Beacon Securities argues that Sunniva’s assets in Canada are worth more than the company’s entire current $180 million market cap and that its near-commercialization property in California is effectively being given zero value, ‘or, in fact, negative — a proposition that is ludicrous given the imminent launch of its 489,000 SF greenhouse (with on-site dispensary and distribution license) in the world’s largest cannabis market in California.’”

Youngevity International, Inc. (NASDAQ: YGYI) Revenues Perk Up with Coffee


  • Youngevity International announces second quarter 2018 results
  • Coffee revenues rise by 40 percent
  • Youngevity to enter the hemp CBD market
With the release of its second quarter 2018 results, Youngevity International, Inc. (NASDAQ: YGYI) offers a glimpse into coffee’s influence on our social and commercial milieus. This simple beverage, often overlooked because of its ubiquitous use, has been credited with nothing less than catalyzing the industrial revolution (http://ibn.fm/UH03c). Before its introduction to Europe, standard breakfast fare included beer, a practice that may have contributed to the counsel “Eat breakfast like a king.” However, kings typically do not need to rise early to plough the fields or take the sheep out to pasture. Early morning draughts of beer are unlikely to foster good work ethics, but coffee can, according to some commentators. It’s responsible “for the increase in productivity and innovation that characterized the industrial revolution.” At Youngevity, this dynamic appears to be at work again. The company’s second quarter 2018 results reveal that revenues have risen, boosted by a sharp performance improvement from its coffee segment.

Youngevity’s coffee connection began in 2014, when Youngevity International purchased a 1,000-acre coffee plantation in Matagalpa, Nicaragua. The plantation had long been neglected but still housed 180 dedicated workers and their families. The first phase in getting it fully operational again focused on those workers. The company launched, what seemed at the time, a simple “Kindness Project” request for used clothing from distributors and customers. The response was overwhelming. Enough was received to provide clothing for workers on all of the plantations in the vicinity, including the one belonging to Youngevity. This led to the establishment of the ‘Youngevity Be the Change Foundation’ after the neighboring plantations began calling the Youngevity estate ‘The Giving Plantation’, an initiative that aligns with Youngevity’s desire to promote healthy and empowered lifestyles.

Youngevity has reported that, for the three months ended June 30, 2018, revenues increased 6.6 percent to $44.26 million, as compared to $41.53 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 (http://ibn.fm/clomt). Commercial coffee sales increased by $1.42 million, or 23.7 percent, to $7.41 million, compared to $5.99 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase that was mainly due to increased revenues of $1.17 million from its green coffee business. During the quarter, approximately 17 percent of total revenues came from commercial coffee sales.

The rest of Youngevity’s revenues were derived from direct sales. Total sales rose to $36.85 million, registering a 3.7 percent increase of $1.31 million over the prior year period. This increase was primarily attributed to revenues from new acquisitions and price increases on certain products that went into effect on January 1, 2018. For the quarter, gross profit increased approximately 5.3 percent to $25.38 million, compared to $24.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Overall gross profit as a percentage of revenues decreased slightly to 57.4 percent, compared to 58 percent in the same period last year.

Youngevity is also moving into the cannabidiol (CBD) market (http://ibn.fm/YXxVT). In August, the company announced that it is entering the CBD market with a proprietary line of hemp-derived CBD oil products. At present, the CBD market is experiencing meteoric growth and is projected to reach $2.1 billion by 2020, with $450 million coming from hemp-based sources, according to estimates provided by the Hemp Business Journal. That’s a 700 percent increase from 2016. Demand for CBD has skyrocketed, due primarily to a wide variety of applications that ranges from cosmetics to food and beverage to health supplements.

Youngevity is a leading omni-direct lifestyle company offering a hybrid of the direct selling business model that also offers e-commerce and the power of social selling. Assembling a virtual Main Street of products and services under one corporate entity, YGYI offers products from the six top-selling retail categories: health/nutrition, home/family, food/beverage (including coffee), spa/beauty, apparel/jewelry and innovative services. The company was formed in the wake of a summer 2011 merger between Youngevity Essential Life Sciences and Javalution® Coffee Company (now part of the company’s food and beverage division). The resulting company became Youngevity International, Inc. in July 2013.

MissionIRNewsBreaks – Pressure BioSciences Inc. (PBIO) Issued Key U.S. Patent for High-Pressure Flow-Through Microfluidic Sample Preparation Device


Pressure BioSciences (OTCQB: PBIO) this morning announced the award of a key new U.S. patent, entitled ”Flow-through High Hydrostatic Pressure Microfluidic Sample Preparation Device and Related Methods Therefor.” The company’s creation provides a path for integration of automated ”Hands-Free” sample prep workflows utilizing PBIO’s patented high-pressure platform technologies. The newly issued patent brings Pressure BioSciences’ Intellectual Property (”IP”) to a total of 21 issued patents. “This long-anticipated patent is a very important development for the Company on multiple fronts, and the timing of its issuance could not be better. This invention covers key elements of our plans for developing automated, ”hands-free” sample handling for the next generation of our high-pressure sample preparation platform technologies. This invention also enables a unique capability for maintaining high pressure in a flow-through format (rather than current batch processing), which we expect will facilitate the development of new, automated continuous process monitoring tools applicable to diverse segments of the life sciences industry. Finally, we believe this novel flow-through concept offers critical enablement for future system design strategies for epitope characterization, an emerging area in development and production of biotherapeutics that could revolutionize personalized therapy for numerous medical conditions, including autoimmune diseases and a variety of rare medical disorders,” Pressure BioSciences Vice President of Research and Development Dr. Alexander Lazarev stated in the news release.

NUGL Inc. (NUGL) Engages ‘Super Lawyer’ as Consultant to Help Protect Growing Brand and Intellectual Property


  • NUGL has hired a renowned attorney to serve as an IP and trademark law consultant
  • NUGL has created one of the largest cannabis-related search app platforms and the world’s very first comprehensive cannabis search engine
  • Company’s database includes only true, untainted user ratings and feedback, with no fake reviews or purchased top-spot listings
NUGL Inc. (OTC: NUGL), creator of the world’s first comprehensive cannabis software platform and a company setting a new technology standard for the cannabis industry, recently announced that it has hired renowned attorney Scott P. Shaw to serve as an expert industry consultant in IP and trademark law (http://ibn.fm/yNVQd).

Named a “Super Lawyer” in 2017 by Los Angeles magazine – an honor recognizing attorneys who rank in the top five percent for excellence in practicing law – Shaw is a shareholder with Call & Jensen and specializes in litigation and strategic client counseling for that firm. He was honored as a “Rising Star” for eight years and was been distinguished as one of the “2015 Top 25 Orange County Rising Stars” and the “Top 100 Southern California Rising Stars.”

In engaging Shaw’s services, NUGL aims to protect its brand and intellectual property – a necessary measure as the company continues to grow and build a diverse range in its network of profiles. As one of the largest cannabis-related search app platforms, offering unparalleled expertise in forming brands within the cannabis space, NUGL continues progressing toward its goal of becoming a household name in the cannabis industry.

NUGL stands out in the cannabis space by offering the only cannabis search app that provides pure search results that are equal and unbiased; the company does not sell top-spot listings or fake reviews.
NUGL’s app provides topnotch searchability to connect users with customer-rated dispensaries, cannabis strains and brands, but its services go far beyond that, delivering something greatly needed and truly unique in the cannabis space. NUGL’s application provides profiles for every type of cannabis brand, business and service, including listing physicians, lawyers, accountants, real estate agents and other entities that offer cannabis-related services.

Other features that set NUGL’s application apart are its superior networking capabilities and its ability to arm novice startups with the marketing and business tools they need to move forward – tools that are otherwise largely unavailable in the cannabis space.

As the cannabis industry continues to grow and as consumers become more knowledgeable, demand for specific marijuana brands will increase, and brands will emerge with more narrowed focuses. The startups and developers behind these brands will need an improved means of getting their products on the right shelves and in front of consumers, and NUGL provides that. NUGL’s new technology gives cannabis brands and service providers the ability to actively network and make crucial connections. Through NUGL’s technology, a brand holder can reach out to dispensaries, for example, to forge deals to get his or her brand on the necessary shelves. This provides a brand with physical availability addresses, which, in turn, gives the consumer the necessary content to conduct a superior search for products and services.

Notably, NUGL’s comprehensive, flexible technology has been built on a web app, with the user interface and client-side logic running in a web browser. This web application communicates seamlessly with both iOS and Android.

NUGL has launched numerous features, including exclusive profile claiming, features for brands and listings and honest consumer-based reviews. The company is quickly gaining market share and now has directory services that span North America. The company’s B2B and B2P application is one-of-a-kind in the cannabis industry, providing a crucially needed service as the cannabis space continues to evolve at breakneck speed.

ChineseInvestors.com, Inc. (CIIX) Launches Innovative CBD Direct Selling Initiative through Wholly Owned Foreign Enterprise


  • Launched a CBD direct selling initiative in China
  • Marketing expert Fengxian Xie brings nearly 20 years of marketing experience to the management team of the newly established CBD Community Center
  • First to offer hemp-infused skin care products in China
  • Goals of maximizing shareholder value, doubling revenues and meeting qualifications for listing on the Nasdaq or NYSE
The premier financial information website for Chinese-speaking investors, ChineseInvestors.com, Inc. (OTCQB: CIIX) announced in a recent press release (http://ibn.fm/aU5RX) that it has launched a two-tiered direct selling initiative through wholly owned foreign enterprise CBD Biotechnology Co. Ltd. aimed at accelerating its CBD sales in China.

Marketing expert Fengxian Xie has joined the CBD Biotech management team, bringing nearly 20 years of marketing experience with him. Under his leadership as the president of the CBD Community Center, a new marketing channel will be established to stimulate demand for CBD Biotech’s innovative CBD infused skin care products, CBD Magic Hemp Series and the Live Oxygen luxury line.

Under Xie’s management, the CBD direct selling community will have access to seminars and expos designed for business-to-business and business-to-customer sales opportunities. Members will be compensated for product sales and receive stock-based performance bonuses. CIIX is the first to offer hemp-infused skin care products in China, and Xie will lead the way forward in expanding the community’s reach to every city in the country.

“We believe we are building the first Chinese CBD marketing community that offers our members the opportunity to become invested in the Company,” CIIX CEO Warren Wang stated in a news release. “Our efforts in advancing the CBD Community Center will involve a twofold mission: to educate the Chinese community about the benefits of hemp-infused skin care and increase product sales. We are confident that with Mr. Xie’s experience and proven track record, he is the perfect candidate to lead the development of this direct selling initiative.”

At the heart of everything CIIX does is a continued commitment to providing premier financial information, education and services to the Chinese-speaking community throughout the world. As the company makes plans to refocus back to its original mission of financial consulting and branding, it is in the process of spinning off its CBD division into its own subsidiary. Wang previously shared with MoneyTV (http://ibn.fm/2FCWK) that his goal is to maximize shareholders’ value and his hope is that the subsidiary can double its revenues and meet qualifications for listing on the Nasdaq or NYSE by next year.

Net Element, Inc. (NASDAQ: NETE) Revenues Up Nine Percent to $32 Million


  • Growth in North American market driving revenue increase
  • Total dollars processed via North American Transaction Solutions segment up 37 percent to $1.62 billion
  • Total dollars processed via International Transaction Solutions segment up 20 percent to $211 million
Net Element, Inc. (NASDAQ: NETE) has reported strong second quarter financial results, with net revenues of $32.45 million by June 2018, up nine percent from $29.7 million last year (http://ibn.fm/rj4yd). The financial services technology company, which develops multi-channel electronic payment solutions, has seen a significant increase in its North American business.

At a conference call to discuss the results, CEO Oleg Firer said, “The increase in net revenues is primarily due to organic growth in the North American Transactions Solutions segment, which experienced 15 percent growth over the prior year.”

He said this growth offset a predicted decrease in the company’s international transactions. “International Transaction Solutions segment experienced an expected decline of 19 percent due to elimination of branded content business, which accounted for $684,000 of net revenues in 2017. Normalizing elimination of branded content business resulted in 11 percent growth in the International Transaction Solutions segment and 6.5 percent across all segments over the same period of the prior year,” Firer added.

Among the highlights of the conference call presentation:

  • Due to growth from Net Element subsidiary Unified Payments, the company’s total dollars processed through its North American Transaction Solutions segment increased by 37 percent to $1.62 billion up to June 2018.
  • The total dollars processed through the International Transaction Solutions segment increased by 20 percent to $211 million.
  • The total number of transactions processed up to June 2018 rose by 41 percent to 50.2 million. The North American Transaction Solutions segment saw an increase of 41 percent to 28.1 million, and the International Transaction Solutions segment saw an increase of 40 percent to 21 million.
Firer also mentioned key business highlights of the first half of 2018. “During the second quarter 2018, we launched Netevia Smart Vendor Payment Solutions, to enter a multi-trillion dollars global B2B payments market. We continue to work in Netevia, our future-ready omni-channel payments platform that was launched early this year. And we’re on track to launch services we set out to do this year, including blockchain technology solutions and value-added services,” he said.

The CEO noted that the Netevia payment platform has been expanded to target the $7.7 billion events industry, and the company recently launched subscription-based payment processing for small businesses. Netevia allows businesses to accept over 100 cashless payment methods in several currencies.

Net Element has also developed the Aptito system, a payment service created for the restaurant sector, and Unified Payments, a flexible mobile point-of-sale system that can be used by a wide variety of vendors, such as kiosk-type shops, limousine drivers, and tow truck and delivery drivers.

“Combined, these strategic initiatives are expected to add over $6.5 million in gross profit over the next four years. We’re on track to deliver another year of growth and financial improvement, and are pleased with our results as we continue to focus on long-term growth plans,” Firer said.

NUGL Inc. (NUGL) Aims to Set New Cannabis Industry Tech Standard with Innovative Networking App and Online Directory


  • NUGL’s directory services app expands reach across North America
  • Search platform and internet directory lets companies and clients locate and connect with each other
  • Users of cannabis-related products can leave real reviews of goods and services
  • App available for Android and Apple devices and works on all platforms
With the cannabis industry entering the mainstream in a big way, there is a growing need among consumers to be able to find reliable products and services or even specific brands. Technology company NUGL Inc. (OTC: NUGL) seeks to address this major pain point and help customers overcome the challenge of finding reputable and reliable supplies of specific products and services.

Moving in aggressively to fill in this information gap, NUGL has built and launched the world’s first search app and internet directory dedicated to all types of cannabis companies. The online platform and app will allow companies and clients to locate and connect with each other and leave unbiased reviews of goods and services. Available since last year, the platform’s reach has now expanded across all of North America (http://ibn.fm/OnmgW).

Transparency and reliability are of primary importance to NUGL, whose main goal is to set a new standard of technology excellence in the cannabis industry. The platform does not sell listing space, nor allows fake reviews, which means that users are able to get more reliable and unbiased information as they search for goods and services and read reviews and ratings.

Through the web portal or the mobile app, which is available for both Android and Apple devices, NUGL’s users can create a personal or business profile. They are able to carry out a geographical search and find suppliers of products and services in a specific area. Business profiles allow companies to display and market their information to private users. These customers, in turn, after they have transacted business with the companies, are able to leave reviews for other potential clients and customers to see.

On opening the app or web platform, users can see a detailed map which highlights information specific to the legal cannabis industry. This would include, for example, dispensaries and doctors’ offices, complete with their latest profiles, reviews and user ratings. A powerful and user-friendly search function allows the NUGL platform’s users to filter their results and find the information that they are seeking more easily.

Industry analysts predict that consumers in the legal U.S. marijuana market will spend $11 billion in 2018, and that, by 2022, the number will reach $23 billion (http://ibn.fm/9PS3C). As the industry continues to grow and attract new investment, NUGL will be able to connect investors with entrepreneurs seeking capital.

Through the platform, companies will be able to offer each other business-to-business services, such as growers linking to dispensaries. Ancillary services, such as soil and nutrient firms, providers of distillation equipment and accounting or real estate services, can also use the platform to connect with and form business relationships with companies in the cannabis industry. In additional to directory services, NUGL’s platform can be used as a social networking platform, giving it significant marketing and networking potential for businesses.

NUGL has already expanded its services beyond California, where it is based, and has plans to spread its reach across the globe as the cannabis industry continues to see tremendous growth in international markets.
