TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - April 4, 2017) - Nutritional High International Inc. (the "Company" or "Nutritional High") (CSE:EAT) (CSE:EAT.CN) (OTCQB:SPLIF) (FRANKFURT:2NU) is pleased to announce an overview of the milestones that the Company has accomplished during its second quarter ended January 31, 2017, and Q2 financial results.

Jim Frazier, CEO of Nutritional High commented - "This past quarter has been crucial in our Company's development cycle. Achieving commercial production in Colorado demonstrates our proof of concept, which the team is working on replicating in other US states. The Company has also announced developments regarding expansion into other states and progress on the product front. I would like to thank our shareholders for their following and their continuous support."

Q2 Financial Highlights

The Consolidated Financial Statements and Management Discussion and Analysis for the Quarter Ended have been filed on www.sedar.com. Outlined below is a summary of key highlights (in CAD unless otherwise noted), however, we encourage shareholders to review the documents in their entirety.

  • The revenue for 6 months ended January 31, 2017 was $331,464, which was comprised of interest income and rent income, payable from Palo Verde. As of January 31, 2017, a total of $1,460,362 was owed to Nutritional High from Palo Verde LLC ("Palo Verde"), of which approximately $480,000 was recognized as impairment on the amount receivable.
  • The Company had total assets of approximately $9.7 million, of which, approximately $5.8 million was comprised of cash. The balance was comprised of investment properties, amounts due from Palo Verde, capital assets (mostly comprised of equipment), accounts receivable, licenses, investments and property deposits.
  • A key statistic that we would like to highlight is the investments account of $639,826, which contains the investments that the Company has made for its Illinois project, The Clinic Effingham ("TCE"), which had revenue of $368,469 and a net loss of $85,030 as sales commenced on September 17, 2016. The Illinois project is presented on the financial statements using equity method, rather than consolidation.

The Company would also like to note that due to residency requirements in the State of Colorado the Company may not control (or indeed have an ownership interest in) Palo Verde, and as such, it may not consolidate the financial performance of Palo Verde. Since the Company has completed the build-out and equipment installation at its Pueblo facility, Palo Verde has purchased and processed into oil 230 pounds of trim and shake.
