CEO Jeppe Krog Rasmussen, comments:

A remarkably busy and eventful 2021 has come to an end and in the final quarter of 2021, and it feels very satisfying to be able to announce, that we had a turnover for the first time in DanCann Pharma history. Numerous other important milestones have been reached and we are still standing – stronger, firmer and more positive than ever.

Pressing the start button in Biotech Pharm1 and the first harvest, the signing of the exclusive distribution agreement with Canadian Tetra Bio-Pharma, two capital injections, the acquisition of CannGros and the permanent Danish Pilot Programme for production companies combined with a four-year extension of the programme for patients. Important headlines for us.

The acquisition of CannGros and subsequently the sales of products to Danish pharmacies have furthermore resulted in a turnover for the first time in DanCann Pharma history. We are very proud to have reached this milestone.

In Q4 2021 we were busy finalizing the details in our EU-GMP application for Biotech Pharm1, which we have sent to the Danish Medicines Agency in January 2022, with an expected approval from the DMA in the first half of 2022. As a company we are facing another major milestone when we will be ready with our first biomaterial. A biomaterial produced under indoor conditions in closed hermetic chambers under best practice GACP- and EU-GMP conditions. Exiting times ahead.

However, we would not be here without the support and trust from our local community, our employees, and our board of directors. They all believe in DanCann Pharma. Believe that we can make a difference for all of those, who need a company just like us.

Q4 and 2021 have been momentous periods for DanCann Pharma and I am proud of the whole team for the dedication and hard work everyone has shown throughout the year. I am equally excited about what 2022 has in store for us. Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to all our shareholders. The interest and support we receive from you cannot be overestimated in our quest to provide better treatments to patients.
