Experion Holdings Ltd.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 3, 2021 / Experion Holdings Ltd. (the "Company" or "Experion") (TSXV:EXP)(OTCQB:EXPFF)(FRANKFURT:MB31) is pleased to share a market update, outlook for 2021 and to announce Mr. Jarrett Malnarich, Experion's CEO will be presenting at the live webcast investor conference this Thursday, February 4, 2021.

As we enter 2021, Experion and its brand, Citizen Stash, have now been serving the Canadian premium cannabis market for almost two years. The premium market has evolved and matured over 2020, increasing to $3 billion in annual revenue according to Statistics Canada, with continued expansion and growth expected into 2021, fueled by improved retail access across Canada, a robust flower market and increased availability of concentrates and edibles.

Experion is also seeing two distinct consumer purchasing patterns emerge in the Canadian market. On the one hand, strong demand exists for low cost, fair quality, "value priced" products. However, demand continues to increase in the upper premium end of the market for brands with high quality products where consumers can justify paying the additional expense. Citizen Stash is just such a brand, being nominated for several national awards and increasing consumer demand driven by strong word of mouth from repeat purchasers due to the top-quality experience the suite of our products provides to customers.

Additionally, the provincial cannabis exchanges and retailers are now at a place where they have strong data of which brands are fitting into the various quality segments because of sales history. Increasingly, the provincial exchanges are favoring premium brands, which support their ability to achieve their volume and margin targets, while also staying true to one of their key objectives which is to keep consumers out of the black market. The private retailers are also in a similar position and their budtenders are quite adept at moving consumers from discount cannabis to premium product choices, that they know their customers will like, which will ultimately drive higher margins and increasing profits for their business.

These trends play right into Citizen Stash's premium brand position, driving consumer demand and fueling the growth of Experion's unique ‘aggregation and distribution' model. Experion's advantage is the ability to rapidly scale premium craft flower production without significant capital expenditures. By leveraging existing cultivation capacity through structured "grow and buy back" partnerships, Experion can deploy its capital in product inventory and marketing to rapidly drive sales nationally. Based on the success of this model and market trends for premium products, we have had four consecutive quarters of revenue growth and are positioned to grow well beyond what we have accomplished in 2020.

Experion will realize significant growth and continue to capture market share in 2021 by leveraging what we have built, including:

  • Expansion into all markets within Canada.
  • Maximizing the visibility of our Citizen Stash brand within our current markets.
  • Expanding our premium product offerings with further innovation, namely, new in-demand strains, concentrates and edibles.
  • Accelerating our highly scalable and capital efficient ‘aggregation and distribution' model nationally.
  • Partnering or acquiring a central Canadian cannabis operation to replicate our B.C. based Mission facility to keep pace with our revenue growth.
