Canndoc, a wholly owned subsidiary of InterCure
Ltd., is Israel’s largest licensed cannabis producer and one of the
first to offer Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) certified and
pharmaceutical-grade medical cannabis products in pharmacies across
the country. Canndoc leverages its market leading distribution
network, significant logistics infrastructure, best in class
international partnerships and a high-margin vertically integrated
strategy to be the most profitable cannabis company in Israel and
one of the most profitable globally outside of North America.
Canndoc’s management previously reported a Q4 2020 expected EBITDA
annualized run rate of greater than US$10 million and positive free
cash flow. Furthermore, we believe that Canndoc is well-positioned
to capitalize on the adult-use market in Israel, which is expected
to be legalized in 2021 or 2022.
Michael Auerbach, Founder of Subversive Capital,
said, “I’m extremely proud of this transaction which allows our
shareholders to participate in the upside of the Israeli cannabis
market. InterCure has been a pioneer, leading the cannabis wave in
Israel and capturing significant market share across Europe.”
InterCure’s Chairman and former Prime Minister
of Israel, Ehud Barak, added, “Israel became famous for its
breakthroughs in cannabis research and has now become one of the
leading medical cannabis markets in the world. Canndoc has proven
its ability to execute a profitable growth strategy as it became
the dominant force in Israel. Nowadays, we are well positioned
to lead new emerging cannabis markets as legislative reform is
spreading around the globe."
Canndoc’s Chief Executive Officer, Alex
Rabinovitch, added, “With the most comprehensive vertically
integrated platform, brand portfolio and the healthiest robust
balance sheet, we will reshape the cannabis industry in Israel
and across Europe.”

may not be comparable to similarly titled measured used by other
entities or in other jurisdictions. SVX and InterCure use this
measure because it believes it provides useful information to both
management and investors with respect to the operating and
financial performance of the company.
