In addition, terms such as “will,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “intend,” “potential,” and similar expressions and discussions of our strategy or other intentions identify forward-looking statements.

THE OPPORTUNITY
DNA’s focus has always been to provide customers with unique cannabis strains through effective marketing of the
- riginal Dutch and California cannabis cultures.
DNA’s brand awareness and award-winning cannabis strains ensure high-yield production, pharmacological efficacy, and heightened consumer interest, making a partnership with DNA Genetics exceedingly valuable. DNA is already expanding aggressively outside of California by partnering with operations that seek a competitive edge, circumventing the time and cost needed to grow organically. DNA uses a robust approach to IP protection, having European and Canadian filings in addition to state-by-state filings pending transition to the national level once cannabis becomes federally legal in the US and elsewhere. Trade secret policies also apply to each agreement to further mitigate IP risk.
