Removed 2 Tier 2 Securities:
- -1 = Tier Downgraded to Tier 3: (“GPO Plus, Inc.”)
- -1 = Tier Downgraded to Tier 3: (“Bettermoo(d) Food Corporation”)
Added 2 Tier 3 Securities:
- +1 = Tier Downgraded to Tier 3: (“GPO Plus, Inc.”)
- Rationale = GPO Plus, Inc. is a United States-based holding company. GPO Plus manufactures and distributes consumer products to convenience stores, gas stations, and specialty retailers. GPO Plus operates cbdGPO, a group purchasing organization for the CBD and Hemp industry. Through cbdGPO, the company offers a variety of hemp-derived products. However, GPO Plus is continuing to expand its product line outside of cannabis. As a result, GPO Plus’ involvement in the cannabis industry no longer constitutes a substantial revenue source, relative to its overall business. Therefore, qualifies for Tier 3.
- +1 = Tier Downgraded to Tier 3: (“Bettermoo(d) Food Corporation”)
- Rationale = Bettermoo(d) Food Corporation is a Canadian beverage company offering a variety of products through online and in-store retail platforms. The company, through its subsidiary, provides high-quality CBD beverages. However, the company has recently expanded its product line with a new focus on plant-based dairy alternative foods and beverages. As a result, the company’s involvement in the cannabis industry no longer constitutes a substantial revenue source, relative to its overall business. Therefore, qualifies for Tier 3.
