Kandi Technologies Group (KNDI) – Solid Results Reflect A Shifting Strategic Direction

Kandi Technologies Group (KNDI)
Solid Results Reflect A Shifting Strategic Direction

Kandi Technologies Group, Inc. (KNDI), headquartered in Jinhua Economic Development Zone, Zhejiang Province, is engaged in the research, development, manufacturing, and sales of various vehicular products. Kandi conducts its primary business operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Zhejiang Kandi Technologies Group Co., Ltd. (“Zhejiang Kandi Technologies”), formerly, Zhejiang Kandi Vehicles Co., Ltd.) and its subsidiaries including Zhejiang Kandi Smart Battery Swap Technology Co., Ltd, and SC Autosports, LLC (d/b/a Kandi America), the wholly-owned subsidiary of Kandi in the United States, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Kandi America Investment, LLC. Zhejiang Kandi Technologies has established itself as one of China’s leading manufacturers of pure electric vehicle parts and off-road vehicles.

    Results were in line with expectations and reflect a trend towards off-road vehicles and scooters and away from electric vehicles (EV). Of note was a 420% increase in revenues for scooters making it Kandi’s largest operating division. Kandi reported net income of $22.9 million ($0.30 per share) versus our estimate of $25.1 million ($0.28 per share). The company’s financial position remains strong with cash and cash equivalents reaching $223 million (almost $3 per share) higher than the stock’s current trading price.

    The EV market in China has become competitive with others selling at a loss.  Kandi is deemphasizing the EV market, and with it, the ride sharing and battery swap markets to focus on off-road vehicles and scooters. The shift away from EVs may be disappointing for long-time investors who entered the stock in the hopes of finding the next Tesla. In our opinion, it is more important to be a profitable …

Release – Item 9 Labs Corp. Launches Reg A Public Offering Keep Cannabis Local Campaign



Item 9 Labs Corp. Launches Reg A+ Public Offering & Keep Cannabis Local Campaign

Research, News, and Market Data on Item 9 Labs

 

Investors Now Have a Chance to Invest in the First Vertically Integrated U.S. Cannabis Franchise

PHOENIXMarch 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Item 9 Labs Corp. (OTCQX: INLB)–a vertically integrated cannabis dispensary franchisor and operator that produces premium, award-winning products–announced today the launch of its global, streamlined Regulation A, Tier 2 public offering for unaccredited and accredited investors. Now anyone can become a shareholder in Item 9 Labs Corp., which includes the national dispensary franchise, Unity Rd. and premium, award-winning cannabis brand Item 9 Labs. The Company is offering 28 million Units Each Comprised of One Share and One-Half of One Warrant. Upon the exercise of all warrants, the offering has maximum proceeds of $67.2 million.

With new states continuing to legalize cannabis, the industry is on track to explode – projecting $45 billion in revenue by 2025, a 50 percent increase from 2021*. As large players increasingly dominate the space, the business landscape will become even more challenging for new and independent entrepreneurs. The complexities of operating a cannabis business make it difficult for small, independent dispensaries to understand and stay on top of all the varying regulations and everyday challenges of managing and operating a compliant and successful dispensary.

The Company’s offering is set to accelerate the solution. Promoted under its “Keep Cannabis Local” campaign, this funding round offers the opportunity to invest in cannabis entrepreneurship, keeping the door to cannabis ownership open to industry newcomers and existing operators alike.

“Dispensary ownership is a lucrative opportunity, but it comes with a considerable amount of challenges to navigate,” said Item 9 Labs Corp.’s CEO Andrew Bowden. “The combination of our brands are the solution.”

Unity Rd. shops are rolling out state-by-state, community-by-community, and keeping dispensary ownership in the hands of local entrepreneurs nationwide. The franchise opportunity provides a viable opportunity for industry newcomers and small, locally owned and operated dispensaries to compliantly thrive, thanks to the robust backing and support of a national franchise. Unity Rd. offers direct access to the buying power, resources and supportive network normally reserved for multi-unit cannabis operators – empowering local, independents to confidently run their business.

“Unity Rd. offers one of the safest ways to enter the complex cannabis space with an experienced team guiding the path forward and supporting across all functions of the business,” Bowden added. “Franchising will propel the cannabis industry and keep business ownership in the hands of local owners.”

As the Unity Rd. franchise network expands nationally, the Company plans to bring Item 9 Labs products to the market through corporate development, acquisitions or partnerships with cultivation facilities in states where Unity Rd. franchise partners open cannabis retail shops. This strategic growth plan gives Unity Rd. operators front-of-the-line access to a reliable, award- winning product supply chain and offers the national product consistency that consumers have come to expect from franchises. This strategy also eases new market entry for Item 9 Labs products and creates unmatched market power across borders.

The Company encourages all interested investors to visit keepcannabislocal.com for a link to the Offering Circular and to learn how to invest in the offering. For more information on Item 9 Labs Corp. and its brands, visit item9labscorp.comView the offering circular directly by clicking here.

    Pay By Bitcoin. Earlier this week, RCI announced its Tootsie’s Cabaret and Scarlett’s Cabaret Miami locations will be the first of RCI’s subsidiaries to accept Bitcoin as payment. Guests can now pay using Bitcoin wallet apps on their mobile phones. The Bitcoin will be converted into fiat cash. We believe the move provides even greater opportunity not only for payment options but possibly to attract more of the crypto crowd to the locations. Depending on the experience, we would anticipate other locations to begin accepting Bitcoin in the future.

    In Time For Bitcoin 2022.  The announcement comes just before Bitcoin 2022, the world’s largest gathering of “bitcoiners,” with over 35,000 attendees in 2021. Bitcoin 2022 is being held April 6-9 in Miami, an easy drive to the Tootsie’s and Scarlett’s locations …

Research, News, and Market Data on Item 9 Labs

Franchisor of Cannabis Dispensary, Unity Rd. Seeks to Keep Dispensary Ownership Local by Providing Turnkey Investment Opportunities for New and Existing Franchise Partners

DENVER March 4, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Item 9 Labs Corp. (OTCQX: INLB) (the “Company”) — a vertically integrated cannabis dispensary franchisor and operator that produces premium, award-winning products — announced today that it has closed its acquisition of an existing dispensary license and storefront in Adams County, Colorado.

Located at 6101 N. Washington St. in Denver, this will be the first corporate-owned shop under the Unity Rd. brand. The Company expects the shop to be operational in the first half of 2022.

Acquisition Marks First in Company’s National Growth Accelerator

This acquisition is part of an overarching strategy to accelerate national development by creating turnkey investment opportunities for Unity Rd. franchise partners. Item 9 Labs Corp. plans to aggressively expand its dispensary franchise by acquiring and converting cannabis retail stores, training the local team and selling the business to new and existing franchise partners.

“Entrepreneurs are flocking to cannabis, eager to grab a piece of the $25 billion a year market, but soon find that opening a cannabis business is most often a lengthy, complex process,” said Item 9 Labs Corp.’s Chief Executive Officer, Andrew Bowden. “This development strategy offers one of the most turn-key entrances into cannabis. With our team handling the acquisition, conversion and training internally, we expect our national Unity Rd. footprint to expand much more quickly.”

As part of these development efforts, the Company is seeking acquisitions of cannabis dispensaries in Denver, front range and compelling mountain towns throughout Colorado, and key markets in ArizonaMichigan and Oklahoma.

“Unity Rd. is the growth vehicle that will bring our award-winning, premium Item 9 Labs products to new states,” added the Company’s Chief Strategy Officer, Jeffrey Rassas. “We are also seeking opportunities to acquire, develop or partner with cultivation and production facilities in markets where we have two to three Unity Rd. shops to ease new market product entry and focus our operations.”

Bringing Item 9 Labs products to markets where Unity Rd. shops are located gives franchise partners front-of-the-line access to a reliable, award-winning product supply chain. The cannabis retail shop also benefits from the national product consistency that consumers have come to expect from franchise brands.

Turnkey Business Opportunity Keeps Dispensary Ownership Local

Through its Unity Rd. dispensary franchise, the Company is focused on building a national community of local dispensary owners who operate compliantly and confidently because of the tools, products, systems and training their team provides.

“With Unity Rd., we are keeping dispensary ownership local and thriving with the backing of a franchise system,” Rassas added. “This growth plan ultimately keeps dispensary ownership in the hands of the local entrepreneur. They hire local talent and keep the wealth cannabis offers within their community.”

Unity Rd. offers a guided route for cannabis entrepreneurs interested in staking their claim in an industry that is bursting with potential. The dispensary franchisor’s time-tested Standard Operating Procedures (“SOPs”) and veteran team with a combined 120-plus years of cannabis experience, direct franchise partners through every operational function of the business – from securing a license to assisting with cash flow, product selection or changing regulations.

The marijuana franchise is actively seeking qualified franchise partners throughout Colorado and the U.S. who would benefit from the systems, processes and ongoing support the franchise offers. Currently, Unity Rd. has multiple agreements signed with nearly 20 entrepreneurial groups who are in various stages of development nationwide.
