Cannabis Science Inc. (CBIS); A Stock to Watch in the Highly Controversial Medical Marijuana Industry

Cannabis Science Inc. (OTC:CBIS), a development-stage company engaged in the development, production and commercialization of phytocannabinoid-based pharmaceutical products, is an emerging company in the highly controversial medical marijuana industry.

Based in Denver, Colorado, CBIS has made some steady progress this year, and this reflects in the company’s shares’ performance in 2012. Year-to-date, CBIS shares have gained a whopping 585.71%. On Wednesday, the stock closed 2.86% higher at $0.0720.

According to a 10Q filing made by Cannabis Science recently, the company signed a license agreement with Apothecary Genetics Investments LLC in February this year to produce several CBIS Brand Formulations for the California medical cannabis market. Under the terms of the agreement, Apothecary will also provide research and development facilities with full circle operations.

CBIS also acquired GGECO University Inc. in February this year. GGECO is an online video-based medical cannabis education system, providing courses on medical cannabis law, the benefits of medical marijuana, cooking, horticulture and bud tending. In March this year, CBIS also acquired Cannabis Consulting Inc.

The 10Q filing from CBIS showed that the company’s license revenue for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012 was $25,000, compared with $11,290 reported for the same period last year.
