“Q3 was a milestone quarter for JWC. Revenue grew 32% sequentially, and we celebrated our first harvest from our new JWC2 facility, allowing us to produce record amounts of our clean, consistent cannabis using our unique aeroponic technology, “ President and CEO Nathan Woodworth said in a statement.

“In fact, we achieved a 28% increase in actual yield per plant versus our previously reported estimated yields, and we expect this to be sustainable. We estimate the additional yield alone could boost revenue by at least $25 million annually once JWC2 is fully operational." 

The company said it reached full operational capacity at both of its pilot facilities; added 23 strains to the company’s dried flower collection; and shipped demonstration equipment to Ascendo Group in South Africa.

The stock was down 6.68% at 44 cents at the time of publication Monday.
