LOD, Israel, April 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Dr. Dadi Segal, CEO of Panaxia Israel: “We conclude 2021 with double-digit revenue growth, including export revenues of approximately 5.6 million and 8% market share in the oils category in Germany. It was a launching year and a market penetration of the first product we have exported, clinically repellent and clinically backed. We are proud that at such an early stage, about a year after we first started exporting our premium oils to Germany, Panaxia ranks #3 in cannabis oil sales in Germany. At the beginning of the year, we began initial sales in Germany of our flagship product – medical cannabis extracts for vaporization, a clean product with 100% active ingredients and no hazardous combustibles. This product has many benefits, and it’s the first and only product that, as we estimate, will have a market share of a few dozen percent. It receives very positive reactions from doctors, and we presume all this will be reflected in demand for the product by patients along the road”.
“Looking ahead to 2022, the company continues to pursue its profitability improvement plans and in the production and export of unique finished products, including the extracts for vaporization in Germany and cannabis tablets for the experimental government program in France, as well as expansion to other countries. The experimental program in France is expected to be finalized on March 2023, and we then intend to submit a regulatory marketing permit request to the authorities in France for commercial marketing and product distribution. We believe that this market is expected to be one of the largest markets in the Western world”.

The increase in the Company’s revenues in 2021 is due to ‘its progress and the sale of its products, in parallel with a reduction in the volume of production services to third parties and retail sales to patients. In addition, in December 2020, the company began exporting its medical cannabis oils to Germany and Cyprus.
Exports: During 2021, which was a year of penetration into the German market, the company recorded revenues from exports of medical cannabis oils in the amount of approximately 5.6 million. As of February 2022, about a year after it started selling cannabis oils in Germany, Panaxia ranks 3rd in cannabis oil sales in the country, occupying about 8% share in the category, despite a late entry into the German market due to restrictions on exports from Israel.
It should be emphasized that the above export revenues do not yet include revenues from sales of inhaled medical cannabis extracts, the company’s flagship product, whose sales began this year. As of the date of publication of the report, this will be reflected in demand for the purchase of the products by patients later on.
