OTTAWA, May 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ - CannaRoyalty Corp. (CSE: CRZ) (OTCQX: CNNRF) ("CannaRoyalty" or the "Company"), a leading North American cannabis products and brands company, announced today that its wholly-owned California-based distribution subsidiary, Alta Supply, generated record monthly revenue of ~US$840,000 in the month of April, 2018.

The number of licensed dispensaries in California decreased from December 2017 to January 2018 as enhanced state-wide regulation was implemented concurrent with the transition to a full recreational adult-use market. As a result, fewer licensed dispensaries exist in the state today than in December 2017. This is a short-term phenomenon as operators work towards compliance. Because of this rapid market reset from December 2017 to January 2018 Alta Supply and RVR experienced a year-over-year decline in revenue at the beginning of 2018 along with their peers. However, as the April revenue figures reported today demonstrate, both companies have steadily and powerfully grown revenue even over a lower dispensary base.

"The California dispensary space is experiencing some short-term growing pains in the transition to a full recreational adult-use framework and we are very proud of the teams at Alta Supply and RVR for generating strong results despite these transitory headwinds," said Marc Lustig, CEO of CannaRoyalty. "We are equally proud of the contribution that Alta Supply and RVR have made and will continue to make to the state of California both through tax revenue and job creation. The financial results announced today prove that these entities occupy enviable positions within the California cannabis ecosystem. We are confident that the organic growth of these two entities along with synergies with our existing brand portfolio will generate significant value for shareholders."

California transitioned to a full recreational adult-use market in January 2018 and retail sales are forecast to grow to US$5.2 billion in 2018. (4) CannaRoyalty identified early-on that distribution would be an increasingly important part of the value chain. In March 2018, the Company announced it had closed the acquisition of Alta Supply and entered into a binding term sheet for the acquisition of 100% of RVR and its affiliates. Together, Alta Supply and RVR collected and remitted US$1.83 million in excise tax to the state of California from January 2018 to April 2018, making them large contributors to the state economy.

As the Company's acquisition of RVR has not yet closed, the Company has relied on RVR as a third party to provide this revenue information.
