("FastForward", "FFWD" or the "Company")

Purchase of further shares in Little Green Pharma Ltd

FastForward Innovations Ltd, the AIM quoted company focusing on making investments in fast growing and industry leading businesses, is pleased to advise that it has purchased on the Australian Stock Exchange a further 1,178,000 Ordinary Shares in its portfolio company Little Green Pharma Ltd ('LGP') at an average price of A$0.655 per Ordinary Share. Following the purchase, FFWD has a holding of 2,716,462 Ordinary Shares in LGP representing 2.0% of LGP's issued share capital.

Ed McDermott, CEO at FastForward Innovations, commented: "We continue to be impressed with the management of LGP and believe in their strategy. We will continue to support the company both financially and with our cannabis sector expertise and we are looking forward with confidence to their further growth and progress."

Alfredo Pascual, Vice President of Investment Analysis at FastForward Innovations, commented:

"We have been extremely pleased with Little Green Pharma's progress of late in what is one of our most recent investments in the medicinal cannabis space. Their latest operational announcement of an additional purchase order from Germany (see RNS of 28 May 2021) is consistent with the widely reported growth of the German medical cannabis market, which is Europe's largest.

"The purchase order of c.21,300 units represents c.320kg of the flower medicine for delivery during the quarter ending 31 December 2021. When compared to the latest German official data available showing the country is now importing just over 3,000kg* of medical cannabis flower per quarter, with strong double-digit year-on-year growth, it clearly demonstrates that LGP is becoming one of the leading exporters into Germany and crucially shows the increasing global demand for LGP's GMP-grade medicinal cannabis products."
