CCIM: Why did HLIX feel the need to up-list to the OTCQB market place? Will you further up-list? Is the NASDAQ a reasonable goal?

HLIX: The OTCQB uplisting was an important next step in the company’s evolution, as it signaled to the marketplace that Helix is a serious company, and transparent with its financial reporting. We are continuously evaluating opportunities to improve shareholder value and liquidity, including looking at all exchange options.

CCIM: Although your services are geared towards the cannabis industry … do you see your platform being replicated as the Hemp industry ramps up?

HLIX: We are looking at all the ways that our current offerings might translate to related industries.

CCIM: Going to change gears … CannaInvestor predicted a few years ago that cannabis will be rescheduled in the USA - that it is only a matter of time – and it appears that is slowly coming to fruition – so you agree and how is Helix preparing itself for that “day”?

HLIX: We do feel that it will be rescheduled at some point. We don’t speculate on when, but we do feel that it will happen. We are preparing for that day by faithfully executing our strategy and creating value for our clients, employees, and shareholders. That’s really all any firm can do, and we are focused on doing it better than anyone else.

CCIM: What does your capital structure currently look like today? Do you have any convertible or toxic debt?
