Due to a combination of factors including: Overwhelming demand for the mCig 1.0, the subsequent decision by management mid-quarter to halt 1.0 production in favor of fast-tracking production and launch of mCig 2.0, and the Chinese New Year affecting resupply of the mCig 2.0 following launch, management would like to qualify that all sales and income figures reported for the period ended January 31, 2014 reflect a total of just 24 inventory days:

- 10 Inventory Days for the mCig 1.0

- 14 Inventory Days for the mCig 2.0

Financial Results

Notwithstanding these supply issues, the company is pleased to report over $85,000 in revenue reflecting an increase of over 580% over the same quarter in 2013.

Gross Profit was $54,474 reflecting a gross profit margin of 64%. Due to disciplined cost controls the company is pleased to report US GAAP Net Income of $10,804 reflecting a net income margin of 12.7%. *Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income calculated by excluding non-cash items such as share-based compensation and amortization was $30,256 or 35.6% of revenues.

Significant Balance Sheet Improvement

Growlife Inc. Share Volume Continues to Soar

Meanwhile, Growlife Inc.’s (OTCBB: PHOT) share volume also continued to soar Mar. 19, with 46,122,854 shares changing hands.

The Woodland Hills, Calif. holding company that supplies equipment for legal marijuana growers  share volume continues to surge on the Mar. 17 news that it has entered into a joint venture  with Vape Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB:VAPE) to fund the research and development of patentable technology to create pharmaceutical grade extractions from cannabis.

Under terms of the agreement, each company will bring its specific expertise to the joint venture.

Joint Venture with Vape

Growlife will provide equipment manufacturing while Vape Holdings provides guidance for the process technology and concentrate formulas. Cannabis extractions are a rapidly growing market segment of the legal cannabis market, and believed by many, including the partners, to be a significant part of the future of cannabis as consumers transition from the carcinogens often included with historical methods of drug delivery, to the more modern, safer, and efficient systems reliant on cannabis extracts.

To that end, the partners in the joint venture are intent on introducing medical, food and pharma grade practices into the cannabis industry; from cultivation to extraction to delivery, according to the press release.

This announcement comes only a week after Growlife completed its first GIFT transaction with CMMS, Inc., known better in the Colorado mountain ski communities as LEAF Aspen and Fat City Test Kitchen.

The Growlife Infrastructure Funding and Technology program (GIFT) allows fully-licensed and compliant growers and dispensaries in well-regulated cannabis markets to spread the cost of infrastructure builds over time. The GIFT program is intended to facilitate near term infrastructure needs paired with long term exclusive supply relationships for the expendables required by fully licensed growers and dispensaries.

On Mar. 19, PHOT shares closed at 60 cents down 8 cents from its closing price of 52 cents the previous day.
