– Four Fan-Favorite Jones Soda Flavors Infused with THC Take Flavors Higher 

SEATTLEJune 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Get ready for the best tasting brand in cannabis, available now in California. After 25 years of creating signature craft soda flavors and famously featuring fan-submitted photo labels on every bottle, Jones Soda Co. is entering a whole new category with the new Mary Jones brand of cannabis-infused sodas.

Mary Jones – 1st Cannabis Soda with Real Soda Taste – Debuts in California
Mary Jones – 1st Cannabis Soda with Real Soda Taste – Debuts in California

Mary Jones 10mg Cannabis-Infused Sodas are available in Jones’ fan-favorite Root Beer, Berry Lemonade, Green Apple and Orange & Cream flavors. Every flavor tastes like the Jones Soda original, thanks to Jones flavor scientists who have spent more than two decades as innovators in flavor and have now adapted their iconic recipes for cannabis. These delicious sodas are sold in single-serving 12 oz glass bottles with a 4-pack carrier perfect to bring to a party and share with friends.

The new Mary Jones products also continue Jones Soda’s tradition of using photographs submitted by consumers on their bottle labels and printing quotes from fans under the bottle caps. These traditions of getting fans involved with the brand through self-expression, along with unique flavors like FuFu Berry and partnerships with partners from UFC champion Julianna Pena to Sub Pop Records, have built a community of passionate fans that has continued to grow.

Mary Jones keeps things DIY by offering a custom t-shirt builder enabling fans, influencers and budtenders to create individualized designs to wear or list for sale on the MaryMart commerce site where Mary Jones shares profits with creators.

Other Mary Jones products scheduled for launch in California later this year include a 100mg cannabis-infused soda packaged in a 16 oz, 10-serving can; a 1000mg syrup cannabis tincture designed for mixing with other drinks, using as a food topping or sipping; carbonated candy 2.5mg tablets for flavorful microdoses on the go; and 5mg cannabis-infused gummies shaped like miniature Jones soda bottles with a fun mini-four-pack carrier for a build-it-yourself downloadable DIY project. Plans are underway for additional products as well as expansion into other legal adult-use states.

“Jones Soda is a legendary brand built from bold flavors and doing bold things,” said Bohb Blair, Chief Brand Officer, Mary Jones Cannabis Co. and CMO, Jones Soda Co. “Whether you’re a canna-newbie or a cannaseur, our sodas are the most exciting flavors in cannabis today, and our product roadmap will keep our fans delighted by what’s to come.”

In California, Mary Jones has partnered with Kiva Sales and Service (KSS), distribution and sales; Tinley Beverage Company, cannabis beverage manufacturing; and SōRSE Technology, emulsion and formulation.

Mary Jones sodas are available at launch at California dispensaries including Sweet Flower locations around Los Angeles, Green Goddess in Venice Beach, and Embarc in northern California. A full list of dispensaries carrying Mary Jones products is available on the storefinder page at www.gomaryjones.com.

Cannabis Beverage Advisory Pioneer IBC Takes Plunge Into The METAVERSE With Cannaverse Technologies https://mjshareholders.com/cannabis-beverage-advisory-pioneer-ibc-takes-plunge-into-the-metaverse-with-cannaverse-technologies/ Thu, 19 May 2022 16:25:56 +0000 https://www.cannabisfn.com/?p=2948153

IBC joins a number of businesses and brands that are entering this new unchartered digital territory where the convergence of the physical and virtual worlds come together to create a “mixed reality”, and the B2B community and consumers can immerse themselves in an imaginary Web3 virtual meta-marketplace, where all aspects of the cannabis industry including cultivation, extraction, manufacturing, distribution, retail sales, and consumption of cannabis and hemp products can be enjoyed by residents of the community.  The Cannaland™ platform will be powered on the blockchain and will allow instant purchases of real estate (land parcels), NFT’s as well as other digital assets using Cannaland™ Tokens (“CNLT”), a cryptocurrency providing transactional utility within Cannaland™.  The project is scheduled to go live this year.

“The Cannaland™ experience will offer an innovative approach to community building, revenue generation, and product marketing, manufacturing, and merchandising for cannabis brands looking to distinguish themselves from the increasingly crowded physical marketplace,” said Cannaverse Technologies CEO Mark Bonner.  “Cannaland™ will interact with other adjacent worlds and platforms with a fully functioning economy where the world’s best brands, cultivators, extractors, and infusers will come together to create a B2B and B2C experience for cannabis enthusiasts that can only be found in the virtual reality of the Metaverse ala Cannaland™“.

Stephen Horgan, Co-Founder and Executive Vice President of IBC added, “We envision corporate sponsorship interest from both companies within the cannabis industry as well as consumer product companies not currently involved but looking for an entry into the industry. In addition to individual properties and retail establishments, there are numerous ways a brand, or entity can step into Cannaland™; advertisements on billboards, purchasing the naming rights for Metaverse subsections along with street names, virtual land, utility and transport naming rights, host pop up events, large-scale entertainment events, arena and stadium naming rights, and official sponsorships of high-profile commercial sectors as well as a play-to-earn gaming feature.”

For Beverage & CPG Companies, Cannaland™ will feature a community where B2B business owners can set up shop and provide brands, products, and services in a parallel manner to their real-world experiences. The virtual Mainstreet in Cannaland™ will also feature a place where users can experience a variety of retail concepts.

Focusing on alternative channels such as specialty retail, variety and convenience stores, the new placements reflect the enduring appeal of the unique brand personality created by Jones’ novel soda flavors and constantly changing label images selected from photographs taken by Jones fans. The new distribution agreements include:

  • TJ Maxx/Marshalls/HomeGoods, with roughly 70% of the chain’s 2,800 locations now offering Jones Soda 4-packs in Berry Lemonade, Cream Soda, Orange & Cream, Green Apple and Root Beer as well as Jones’ rotating Special Release flavors.
  • Dollar Tree, the discount variety store chain with more than 15,000 stores, which is now carrying 12/12 oz Jones Soda single bottles in four flavors.

  • McLendon Hardware, a chain of home improvement stores in Washington State that has added Jones Soda’s 12-count variety packs, 4-packs and single-pack items.

“Our core bottled soda business remains our key growth driver, and we made a strategic decision last year to continue to build that business as well as brand awareness by seeking distribution in alternative channels,” said Eric Chastain, President of the Jones Soda Beverage Division. “These new agreements validate that strategy and also demonstrate the versatility of the Jones brand. We’re not just an everyday craft soda but also a fun shopping and tasting experience. We stand out on the shelf, and that’s why we’re succeeding in this initiative.”

The company also continues to expand its footprint in the regional grocery channel with new distribution at The Save Mart Companies, which operates more than 200 stores under the Save Mart, S-Mart Goods, Lucky and FoodMaxx names in California and Nevada. The Save Mart agreement follows the recent announcement that Jones is returning to 210 Meijer stores in six Midwest states as well as continually strengthened relationships with national accounts including Kroger, Safeway Albertsons and Walmart.

News, Top News


Toronto, Ontario and Los Angeles, California–(Newsfile Corp. – April 25, 2022) – The Tinley Beverage Company Inc. (CSE: TNY) (OTCQX: TNYBF) (“Tinley’s” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the launch of its Tinleys 27 Smooth Coconut elixir is continuing to roll out in Ontario. The Company is also pleased to announce that it has received an advance in the aggregate amount of US$612,250 (the “Advance”) from Richard Gillis, President and Chief Operating Officer of Tinley’s USA, and member of Tinley’s Office of the CEO.

Tinley’s Ontario Brand Launch Update

The Company is working with its sales agents, Northern Elements, to introduce Tinleys ’27 Smooth Coconut elixir to an increasing number of dispensaries in key Ontario regional markets since the product’s listing went live earlier this month. To help accelerate retail and consumer uptake, non-infused versions of the product are being offered in store to buyers and are also being made available to dispensaries for consumer sampling events to illustrate the easy sip, mix, and share possibilities of the Tinleys ’27 Caribbean-inspired elixir. In addition, retail point-of-purchase materials are now available, including counter cards with recipe booklets promoting five use occasions through easy-to-mix at home mocktail recipes.

The product continues to be available online via the Ontario Cannabis Store (the “OCS”) website. The Company understands that the OCS reallocates inventory from its warehoused stock in response to online demand, and consumers seeking to order from the OCS website may see the product shown as out of stock, and then find the product available to order hours later or the following day. The Company further understands that the OCS online internal replenishment cycle is expected to accelerate throughout the first 30-60 days of listing. As previously announced, Tinleys Classics Mystic Dove Paloma-inspired ready-to-drink mocktail is expected to be available to Ontario dispensaries and consumers in May.

The Advance

The Advance will be evidenced by a secured, convertible promissory note, the terms and conditions of which are to be determined by the Company and Richard Gillis at a forthcoming date. The proceeds of the Advance will be used for Tinley’s working capital and for general corporate purposes.

The Advance is subject to all necessary approvals, including final approval from the Canadian Securities Exchange.

Regulatory Matters

The Advance is considered a “related party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”).

Further details will be provided in the Company’s material change report to be filed on SEDAR. The Company did not file a material change report in respect of the related party transaction less than 21 days prior to the closing of the transaction, which the Company deems reasonable in the circumstances so as to be able to avail itself of the proceeds of the Advance in an expeditious manner.

Other Corporate Updates: Previously Announced Acquisition Transaction

Tinley’s is pleased to announce that the Company and Lakewood Libations, Inc. (“Lakewood”) have received approval by the City of Long Beach, California for the previously announced agreements for Tinley’s to purchase one hundred percent (100%) of the shares of Lakewood from Richard Gillis for a nominal fee, (the “Acquisition Transaction”). The Company and Lakewood have now submitted the final applications for the change of control of Lakewood to the State of California. The State’s approval, barring unforeseen delays, may be expected on or about the end of Q2 2022. State approval will be the final step in the previously announced change of control of Lakewood and the closing of the Acquisition Transaction.

– Continues to Execute on Turnaround Strategy, Reports Sixth Consecutive Quarter of Revenue Growth –

– Completes Strategic Entry into Cannabis Sector; Expects to Launch Portfolio by End of First Quarter 

SEATTLE, March 10, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Jones Soda Co. (CSE: JSDA, OTCQB: JSDA) (“Jones Soda” or the “Company”), the original craft soda company known for its unconventional flavors and user-designed label artwork, announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2021.

Fourth Quarter 2021 Financial Highlights vs. Year-Ago Quarter

  • Revenue increased 18% to $2.9 million compared to $2.5 million.
  • Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased 260 basis points to 26.5% compared to 23.9%.
  • Net loss was $1.3 million, or $(0.02) per share, compared to a net loss of $0.9 million, or $(0.01) per share.
  • Adjusted EBITDA1 was $(1.2) million compared to $(0.8) million. Adjusted EBITDA included approximately $0.4 million in cannabis-related expenses during the fourth quarter of 2021.

Full Year 2021 Financial Highlights vs. Prior Year

  • Revenue increased 24% to $14.8 million compared to $11.9 million.
  • Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased 720 basis points to 29.7% compared to 22.5%.
  • Net loss improved to $1.8 million or $(0.03) per share, compared to a net loss of $3.0 million, or $(0.05) per share.
  • Adjusted EBITDA1 improved to $(1.3) million compared to $(2.6) million. Adjusted EBITDA included approximately $0.4 million in cannabis-related expenses during the fourth quarter of 2021.

Management Commentary

“2021 was a transformative year spearheaded by strategic partnerships and increased sales across all channels,” said Mark Murray, President and CEO of Jones Soda. “We made great progress expanding our base business across multiple channels, while continuing to focus on our unique labels to increase consumer awareness. We exceeded internal expectations and completed the first year of our three-year turnaround plan with 24% year-over-year revenue growth, a gross profit margin improvement of 720 basis points, and heightened national awareness.

“From a marketing standpoint, the revival of our Turkey and Gravy soda after a ten-year hiatus was an enormous success during the fourth quarter garnering $7.5 million in ad value and over 1.3 billion online impressions. We believe these engagement levels are a testament to the power and community of the Jones Soda brand. Jones has always been known for thinking outside of the box, creating engaging labels, and experimenting with flavors. During the quarter we also announced a key retail expansion with Meijer. It had been five years since Jones products had been in Meijer stores and we are proud of our achievement to have Jones Soda reintroduced to the large retailer across 210 stores in six Midwest states.

“Subsequent to the end of the year, we announced multiple partnerships with celebrities and companies, including professional boxer Mike Tyson and Wesana Health to launch a line of Nootropic supplements, UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion Julianna Peña to raise our brand profile, and The ICEE Company as part of our Special Release Program. Additionally, we are planning to launch our cannabis portfolio by the end of Q1 and expect it will be an immediate hit with consumers as we leverage the strength and community of the Jones Soda brand.

“Looking at where we sit today, 2022 has started off strong. In conjunction with our expected strategic entry into the cannabis sector, we recently listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange as we look to increase the liquidity of our shares and appeal to a broader investor base. We are also making strides expanding distribution within the club channel, foodservice channel, and alternative channels. Operationally, we continue to work with our supply chain partners to navigate the challenging business environment and we’ve been able to increase prices to offset some of the cost impacts. With our solid foundation in place, we believe we are just getting started on our turnaround. In fact, we expect for this momentum of revenue growth to continue into 2022.”

Fourth Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Revenue in the fourth quarter of 2021 increased 18% to $2.9 million compared to $2.5 million in the prior year period. The revenue growth was primarily attributable to the continued sales momentum of Jones’ core bottled soda products.

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased 260 basis points to 26.5% for the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to 23.9% in the year-ago period. The improvement in gross profit margin reflects the Company’s continued shift to a more favorable product mix.

Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $1.3 million, or $(0.02) per share, compared to a net loss of $0.9 million, or $(0.01) per share, in the fourth quarter of 2020. The increase in net loss was primarily attributable to the added operating expenses related to the Company’s expected strategic entry into the cannabis sector, which were approximately $0.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA1 in the fourth quarter of 2021 was $(1.2) million compared to $(0.8) million the prior year period.

Full Year 2021 Financial Results

Revenue in 2021 increased 24% to $14.8 million compared to $11.9 million in 2020. The revenue growth was primarily driven by the Company’s continued execution of its turnaround plan and increased sales of its core bottled soda products.

Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased 720 basis points to 29.7% in 2021 compared to 22.5% in 2020. The improvement was driven mostly by the favorable product mix shift and cost optimization efforts throughout the year.

Net loss improved to $1.8 million, or $(0.03) per share, in 2021 compared to a net loss of $3.0 million, or $(0.05) per share, in 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA1 in 2021 improved to $(1.3) million compared to $(2.6) million in 2020.

At December 31, 2021, cash and cash equivalents totaled $4.7 million compared to $5.9 million at September 30, 2021, and $4.6 million at December 31, 2020. Apart from the $3 million in aggregate principal amount of its currently outstanding convertible debt instruments issued in February 2022, the Company does not have any substantial debt and continues to actively evaluate a new line of credit. Subsequent to year-end, the Company raised $11.0 million in concurrent financials in connection with its acquisition of Pinestar Gold as part of the Company’s planned strategic entry into the cannabis sector.

________________
1 Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) from operations before interest expense, interest income, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation and is a non-GAAP measure (reconciliation provided below).

Presentation of Non-GAAP Information

This press release contains disclosure of the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for core soda business, which are not United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principle (“GAAP”) financial measures. The difference between Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) and Net Loss (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) is the exclusion of interest expense and income, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense and stock-based compensation. We have included a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Loss in our Non-GAAP Reconciliation in this press release. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP. These Adjusted EBITDA measures have certain limitations in that they do not take into account the impact of certain expenses to our consolidated statements of operations. In addition, because Adjusted EBITDA may not be calculated identically by all companies, the presentation here may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. We believe that these Adjusted EBITDA measures provide useful information to investors about the Company’s results attributable to operations, in particular by eliminating the impact of non-cash charges related to stock-based compensation, amortization and depreciation that is consistent with the manner in which we evaluate the Company’s performance. These adjustments to the Company’s GAAP results are made with the intent of providing a more complete understanding of the Company’s underlying operational results and provide supplemental information regarding our current ability to generate cash flow. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a replacement for, or superior to net loss as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance, or cash flow, as a measure of its liquidity. These Adjusted EBITDA measures should be reviewed in conjunction with Net Loss as calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Lakewood issued Distribution License at Tinley’s Long Beach Facility; Tinley’s Brand Product Clears State Testing Onsite; Client Batches Set to Follow This Month https://mjshareholders.com/lakewood-issued-distribution-license-at-tinleys-long-beach-facility-tinleys-brand-product-clears-state-testing-onsite-client-batches-set-to-follow-this-month/ Tue, 18 Jan 2022 18:18:41 +0000 https://www.cannabisfn.com/?p=2936632

January 18th, 2022


TORONTO and LOS ANGELES, Jan. 18, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Tinley Beverage Company Inc. (CSE:TNY; OTC:TNYBF) (“Tinley’s” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that, for the first time, a batch of product manufactured at Tinley’s Long Beach Facility has successfully completed the State of California’s testing, quarantine and lab sampling processes onsite under the distribution licence (the “Distribution Licence”) granted to Lakewood Libations, Inc. (“Lakewood”). While the Distribution Licence was issued to Lakewood in August 2021, it could not be utilized until Lakewood received its distribution business licence (the “Business Licence”) from the City of Long Beach (“City”), which was issued earlier this month. As previously announced, the Company has entered into a purchase agreement to acquire all of the equity interests in Lakewood, the closing of which is subject to certain standard conditions precedent including applicable regulatory approvals.

Receipt of the Distribution Licence and Business Licence is expected to expedite the testing and delivery of manufactured products, as brands will now be able to benefit from a new onsite ‘first-mile’ distribution option adjacent to Lakewood’s licensed manufacturing space at Tinley’s Long Beach Facility. The Business Licence was issued following months of extensive permitting work and inspections and marked the final step allowing Tinley’s Long Beach Facility to activate the state Distribution Licence. This ‘first-mile’ distribution capability is expected to increase efficiency and speed to market by allowing the transfer of manufactured product from Tinley’s Long Beach Facility’s manufacturing area to the immediately adjacent licensed distribution space operating under the Distribution Licence. The first batch of product transferred, tested and cleared for market under the newly activated Distribution Licence was the Company’s own Tinley’s™ ’27 Coconut Cask Elixir.

“The activation of the Distribution Licence marks an important step in completing our end-to-end service offering for the growing roster of great brands manufactured at Tinley’s Long Beach Facility,” said Richard Gillis, President and COO, Tinley USA, and member, office of the CEO. “Our team is thrilled that we can finally offer convenient and vehicle-free transfer of finished product from the manufacturing floor ‘through the wall’ to the approximately 5,000 square-foot ‘first mile’ licensed distribution area under the same roof,” he added. “This new transfer option is expected to reduce product handling and eliminate transportation and logistical steps, thereby shaving off days between the completion of the manufacturing of client products and release to market.”

VCC Brands’ New CQ Shots in Indica and CBD-Relief: First Client Batches to Move to Lakewood Distribution
One of Lakewood’s first contract manufacturing clients, Cannabis Quencher (“CQ”) infused beverages, will be the first client brand to pass “through the wall” from Lakewood’s manufacturing licensed area to the adjacent distribution licensed premises for quarantine, lab sampling and state testing. The first batches of freshly re-designed 100 mg THC CQ shots are expected to be produced on the mini bottle line later this month. “The ability to state test ‘in-house’ is a game changer for brands like ours,” said Kenny Morrison, VCC Brands Founder and CEO. “This is a huge draw for Tinley’s Long Beach facility in attracting brands for a full range of co-manufacturing services. The reduced batch handling, shorter timelines, and easier compliance processing means faster movement to our retailers and consumers.” For more information about CQ visit www.VCCBrands.com.

About The Tinley Beverage Company and Beckett’s Tonics

(CSE:TNY; OTC:TNYBF) develops and has licensed the production through its Long Beach, CA state-licensed manufacturing facility terpene and cannabis-infused non-alcoholic Tinley’s™ ’27 and Tinley’s™ Classics products which are distributed to licensed dispensaries and home delivery channels in California.
