Why 3DX Industries Inc (OTCMKTS:DDDX) Shares Keep Rising

3DX Industries Inc (OTCMKTS:DDDX) shares were up 50% to $0.0900 and flat in after-hours trading. Share prices have been trading in a 52-week range of $0.00 to $0.20. The company has a market cap of $3.68 million at 37.46 million shares outstanding.

3DX Industries Inc is a precision manufacturing company that manufactures consumer and corporate products using a manufacturing method through three-dimensional (3D) metal printing technology and conventional precision manufacturing processes. It also offers various manufacturing options, as well as product design, engineering and assembly services to its customers. The company has an array of computer numerical control precision machining centers. Using its composite printing system, the company offers its clients an option on prototype parts and components for designer review and engineer evaluation prior to final production runs.

Earlier this week, 3DX Industries Inc announced that it is pursuing actions to expand on the company’s current bidding and processing of government projects. The company s currently authorized to quote on projects offered by the Defense Logistics Agency including the following divisions: DLA Aviation, DLA Land and Maritime, DLA Troop Support and DLA Energy. The Trump administration has mentioned plans to reinforce the military and strengthen defense spending, which serve as a call for 3DX to increase its attention in this area and pursue government contract businesses.

Our ability to meet the qualifications required to bid on the numerous Government projects that are offered gives us extreme flexibility in how we process and schedule our current work load,” states Roger Janssen, President and CEO of 3DX Industries Inc. “The opportunity to review, quote and process Government projects will add to our revenue stream as we continue to identify opportunities to increase cash flow.”

A few days ago, the company shared an update to shareholders, marking a step in the right direction for its  strategic initiatives to increase transparency and communication to the investment community.

“From inception, our 3D printing had consisted of mainly prototype and new concept parts and components. The past year has brought about some significant advancements in applications of our 3D metal printing technology and, as a result, we had to move our timeline for implementation of production level protocols up considerably, which we are confident will provide considerable ROI,” CEO Roger Janssen stated.

The company has targeted its focus on the 3D metals printing division, streamlining its processes and procedures to further expand production level 3D metal printing orders. According to the International Data Corporation Worldwide Semi-Annual 3D Printing Spending Guide, the rapid expansion of the industry is expected to continue and that global revenues for the 3D printing market will explode to a massive $35.4 billion by the year 2020. In 2016, revenues expected to reach $15.9 billion so the market is expected to double over the next five years.

It is exciting to see how quickly this additive manufacturing technology is accepted amongst our clients and their eagerness to use 3D Printing as a means of satisfying their production level requirements. The technology is now a solution for more than just prototypes and new concept projects; it can produce parts and components at a cost and quantity to satisfy production level orders,” Janssen added.

North American Cannabis Holdings Inc (OTCMKTS:USMJ) shares were flat on Tuesday at $0.00060 and unchanged in after-hours trading. The company has a market cap of $22,100 at 36.88 million shares outstanding. Share prices have been trading in a 52-week range of $0.00 to $0.00.

North American Cannabis Holdings Inc has entered into the marijuana industry in 2013 to pilot various cannabis sector enterprises and now it is well-positioned to take advantage of the expected boom. The market is expected to grow to $20 billion by 2020 thanks to the November 8 vote that legalized the use of medical or recreational marijuana in several US states. Legislation is pending in Canada as well.

Last year, the company announced that it is set to close the acquisition of controlling interest in Alternet Systems by December 20, 2016. Alternet Systems is a company that develops and commercializes a growing portfolio of digital commerce technologies and already has a long-term track record in  financial services industry software solutions.

Along with this announcement, North American Cannabis Holdings Inc also shared that it has partnered with Puration under their  EVERx Sports and Fitness Nutritional Supplement Brand Name. These products will be targeted to athletes looking to enhance their performance, as CBD can substantially reduce recovery times and increase cardio output. Apart from that, CBD infused products can also target the general public that is becoming more aware of the health benefits of these products, such as mitigating diabetes risk and reducing cancer cells.

This partnership is ready to bear fruit as Puration and North Cannabis Holdings Inc will reveal the major industry trade show where EVERx Cannabinoil (CBD) Infused Bottled Water will be officially launched.

The launch event is going to be huge, and both USMJ and PURA have big roles to play” said Steven Rash, CEO of North American Cannabis Holdings Inc. “An amazing ensemble of smart people and terrific organizations are coming together for what will be a tremendous launch event.  When we tell you all about the EVERx launch event it will be crystal clear to you how USMJ and PURA fit together and how all the hard work getting to this launch has been worth it.  EVERx is a winner and you will see it endorsed by winners at our launch event. You don’t want to miss our announcement next week on Thursday, February 2nd and you don’t want to miss our launch event in March.  Put it on your calendar now.”

Earlier this year, Puration published a $3 million revenue plan and later on announced that sales channels are poised to surpass this target. The company’s proprietary extraction process is combined with Alkame Holdings’ patented technology that alters the structure of water, producing a combination of characteristics that are unprecedented in the beverage industry.

I first want to start by saying that Alkame Holdings’ was absolutely the right partner for PURA to pick for producing the EVERx CBD Infused Sports Drink with PURA’s proprietary CBD extract.” said Brian Shibley, CEO of Puration.  “ALKM has been great.  Not only is ALKM’s patented water a perfect platform for PURA’s proprietary CBD extract, the people at ALKM are simply the best kind of people to work with.  They are committed to the mission; passionate about the mission and laser beam focused on the mission.  EVERx CBD Infused Water is the best CBD infused water you can find.  All of us at PURA, USMJ and ALKM can’t wait to tell you about the product launch details.  Just wait until you hear about the product launch plans on Thursday, next week.  You’re going to be excited too.”
