DELRAY BEACH, Fla., May 26, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Exactus, Inc. (OTCQB: EXDI) (the “Company”) a leading supplier of hemp-derived ingredients (CBD/CBG) and feminized hemp genetics, today reported financial results for the year end 2019.

During 2019, Exactus has built the foundation to become an industry leader. The Company completed its first harvest, entered into supply agreements with industry leaders, and has fully restructured the company and board of directors.

“2019 was a transformational year for Exactus as we entered into the Hemp market in January,” said Emiliano Aloi, President of Exactus. We completed our first harvest which is currently being processed into raw ingredients and have entered into multiple supply agreements with industry leaders in anticipation of additional supply as we are confident in our build out of the sales and marketing team.”

Mr. Aloi continued, “We now have the components in place to execute our long-term strategy and are looking forward to growing off of the foundation that we have established.”

Year End 2019 Financial Summary

Financial results are not comparable to the prior year period because Exactus did not begin its hemp based operations until early 2019.  Revenue for the calendar year ended 2019 was $345,680 versus $0 in the prior year. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to entering into the hemp industry.  Net loss for the year end 2019 was -$10,224,506 versus -$4,337,319 million in the prior year. For the calendar year ended December 31, 2019 shareholders’ equity increased by $7.1 million to $3.7 million in calendar 2019 from a shareholder deficit of $3.4 million in calendar 2018. Exactus expects gross margins to also improve as it begins using lower cost inventory from its fall harvest.
