Michael Hawkins, Chief Financial Officer, stated, "For the third straight quarter MCIG has recorded record numbers. With its current contracts and booked revenue the Company will continue to see quarter over quarter growth in revenue." He went on to say, "During this quarter we will revamp our segment reporting; changing from construction, wholesale, and retail; to construction, CBD, and e-Cig operations. We feel reporting on the segments under these new categories will provide a greater in depth review of our operations to our shareholders and investors."

He went on to explain, "During this quarter the company recognized a reversal in stock based compensation and a settlement action that generated $727K in reportable net income. We adjusted our income by removing these required adjustments in order to demonstrate our operating profits of $118K, our adjusted net income."
