Emerald Health Therapeutics Inc (OTCMKTS:EMHTF) broke down with the rest of the Canadian cannabis patch on Tuesday after Barron’s put out a cover story suggesting that valuations in the space were unhinged from reality. However, that sober headline will now battle against the company’s announcement that it has filed its audited financial statements and management discussion and analysis for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.

“Following the Canadian federal government’s introduction in April 2017 of legislation to broadly legalize adult-use cannabis, Emerald put in motion multiple strategic steps focused on placing the company in the top tier of Canadian licensed producers and pursuing international opportunities,” said Chris Wagner, CEO of Emerald Health Therapeutics. “The company made important leadership hires; took steps to assure significant, secure supply of cannabis via large-capacity production facilities; struck multiple strategic collaborations and investments; leveraged its extensive life science industry expertise to initiate product innovation and intellectual property formation; and added substantially to its treasury.”

Emerald Health Therapeutics Inc (OTCMKTS:EMHTF) trumpets itself as a licensed producer of medical marijuana under the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations, which allows the company to produce and sell medical marijuana and cannabis oils to clients and other licensed producers.

Individuals may become clients of the company by registering with the company through its secure online portal or via telephone after the individual has received a medical document signed by a licensed health care practitioner setting out the daily quantity of dried marijuana, in grams, that the practitioner authorized for the person.

As noted above, shares of the company slid sharply to start the week on valuation concerns. But recent audited financials also show some strong potential. This cross-currents should define the near-term action as we head inexorably toward eventual headlines of full-scale recreational legalization in Canada.

Wagner continued, “We look forward to a transformational year in 2018 with the expected initiation of broad legalized adult-use and our vaulting into the top tier of production capacity, enhanced branding, sophisticated sales and marketing, and progression of our medical product development and patenting plans. We are executing well on the projects we have announced and are assessing an array of potentially impactful new business opportunities.”

In addition, the name has seen increased volume in recent days, with a bump of around 12% above its longer-run average levels during the selloff, suggesting some potential capitulatory shaking of the tree as shares dip under range support levels.

Currently trading at a market capitalization of $380M, EMHTF has a significant war chest ($44.5M) of cash on the books, which is balanced by virtually no total current liabilities. EMHTF is pulling in trailing 12-month revenues of $938K. In addition, the company is seeing major top-line growth, with y/y quarterly revenues growing at 124.8%. This may be a very interesting story and we will look forward to updating it again soon.
