There's been a significant shift in cannabis debt issuance, transitioning from equity-linked debt to straight debt. This shift reflects the industry's growing maturity and profitability (at least in the U.S.) In early 2018, nearly all cannabis debt issues were convertibles, and many issues had additional attached warrants to achieve total coverages of over 100%. As the U.S. MSOs became EBITDA positive in 2020, issuance of straight coupon debt began in earnest, led by the $300M Curaleaf deal in December 2020 and followed shortly after that by $100M and $120M deals by Cresco and TerrAscend, respectively. Most of the top MSOs, including Ascend, AYR, Cresco, Curaleaf, Jushi, TerrAscend, Trulieve, and Verano, have now completed straight coupon issues in $100M+ sizes at rates between 8% and 10%. The ability of Acreage Holdings and Glass House Brands to issue debt with no or little equity linkage is somewhat more surprising but explainable. The key is that in a credit market starving for yield, the Glass House issue is priced at 890 basis points over U.S. Treasuries. Investors are being paid a sizable premium for taking cannabis risks, believed to be on par with a CCC rated bond.

Today, with recreational states like California failing to keep their regulatory standards consistent and stable, companies in the industry stand to loose thousands of dollars in an attempt to be compliant. So, what do we expect legalization on a national level to be like? Certainly not any better. Everybody seems to want legalization on a federal level. It's a hot topic in the industry, especially with a new democratic president and the aftermath of COVID-19 slowly starting to show it's face. But what are the impending consequences of legalization? Who will be the ones most drastically effected? Will it effect cannabis culture and the people within it? My good friend and experienced advocate, Brad Slaughter of Nature's Secret Holdings, joins us on today's episode to answer these questions as we discuss the victims of cannabis legalization and how it'll change the industry in its entirety. Check it out, and see if you've thought of these ramifications of legalization. Did you change your mind on national legalization throughout the episode? Do you have any questions? If so, let me know in the comments below! 3 Lessons Learned: Read the fine print of legislature being pushed in your state – I guarantee it's not as great as it sounds. The cannabis industry is not a meritocracy. Especially once national legalization comes around. Question the motives of CEO's who are preaching for national legalization - are they doing this for the consumer's best interest, or is it for their pockets? 40/58 counties in California have banned commercial sales of cannabis. What makes us think national legalization would be any different? List of Topics/subjects discussed: How national legalization will lead to globalization. What's going to happen to the culture of the industry. The history of cannabis legalization in the past, specifically in California. The constant regulatory and compliance changes that cannabis companies have to endure. The BCC and how it regulates under state control. Acreage Holdings and Canopy Growth's rumored buyout post-legalization Big corporations advocating against home grow Dosage of edibles before and after regulations in California The difference between legalization and de-scheduling cannabis. Decriminalization in the 1970's The future of medical programs vs. recreational programs and the difference in dosage between products that will be sold in each. The cost difference for growing cannabis in different climates within the United States Guest Bio: Brad Slaughter, Co-Founder and President of Nature's Secret Holdings, joins us to discuss the oncoming issues that cannabis legalization will lead to and to identify the victims that will feel these adverse effects.

A quick shot inspired by a viewer question on Acreage Holdings. I discuss a couple of strategies to think about when evaluating a stock or any business, including your own.Business valuation is forward looking, always. It is the future cash flow available to shareholders, discounted for time and risk.Markets are not efficient, particularly for speculative stocks. Influences on demand and supply are everything.Learn more at https://www.sinclairrange.comFollow on Twitter @MartinisWScottFollow on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/scott-sinclair-7b09681b/

On this historic day, The Green Rush is publishing its 100th episode! After launching the podcast two years ago, Anne, Lewis and Nick want to express their gratitude to all of our dedicated listeners who have stuck with us! To treat our audience, we are celebrating with a very special guest, Kevin Murphy, CEO of […]
In this special episode of #HashtagFinance, Kevin Murphy, CEO and Founder of Acreage Holdings (CSE:ACRG.U), joins James Black to discuss what the upcoming House vote on the SAFE Banking Act could mean for US cannabis (2:44), how the growing acceptance of cannabis as a valid medicinal product has impacted the company (5:45), and the progress that has resulted from Acreage’s alignment with Canopy Growth (9:18). Listen until the end to learn more about the remaining challenges for cannabis in the US, for Kevin’s opinion on states’ rights, and to find out what’s ahead for Acreage in the next six months.
Kevin Murphy, CEO of Acreage Holdings, discusses with us his beginnings in the cannabis industry as well as the importance of medical cannabis, especially for children and veterans. Murphy notes that every successful business has had to ask for help along the way - after all, good partnerships lead to good economics. He also believes that the speed of the industry's growth and job creation will directly depend on when the STATES Act gets passed.
Legalized weed in all of America is a sure thing, a virtual done deal — at least according to Kevin Murphy. After almost a decade in the marijuana business, the CEO of Acreage Holdings thinks the country is ready to join him. Murphy’s got heavyweight support: his team includes a former House Speaker, Senator and Prime Minister. They all think marijuana can help a lot of people's health issues, and the government needs to get out of way. And yes, they stand to make millions when weed gets the green light.
Craft Brew News 7/05/19(Courtesy of Brewbound.com)German Brewer Gilde Reveals US Expansion PlansGerman Brewer Plans to Operate Large Manufacturing Brewery in CharlotteGerman brewer Gilde has an ambitious plan to build one of the largest individual craft brewing facilities in the United States.According to the Charlotte Observer, the company is looking into the possibility of eventually brewing upwards of 500,000 barrels annually in North Carolina, however the timetable for beginning that project is still nearly three years away.In the meantime, Gilde CEO Karsten Uhlmann told the outlet that his company would begin by importing beer into the U.S. via Anheuser-Busch wholesaler Adams Beverages this month.The Hanover-headquartered beer company — which produced 850,000 barrels of beer last year — then plans to open a 5,000 sq. ft. small-batch brewery called “The Embassy” before the end of 2019. Two-to-three years later, Uhlmann added, the company plans to open a 100,000 sq. ft. facility capable of being scaled to 500,000 barrels that will also feature a taproom, beer garden and kitchen.Pennsylvania Lawmakers Lower Brewery Sales TaxPennsylvania lawmakers and Gov. Tom Wolf on Friday approved legislation (H.B. 262) to lower an impending sales tax on beer sold in taprooms, tasting rooms and brewpubs. In a press release, the Brewers of PA announced that after 18 months of negotiations with legislators and the governor’s office, an agreement had been reached.The Pennsylvania Department of Revenue (DOR) was slated to begin collecting a 6 percent sales tax for every dollar of beer sold directly to consumers at brewery locations starting July 1. That tax would have been on top of an existing $2.48 per barrel state excise tax that Pennsylvania beer companies already pay.However, H.B. 262 amends to the tax code to allow breweries to “pay 6 percent sales tax on 25 percent of the retail sale” of a pint. According to the Brewers of PA, that formula is in line with the wholesale price paid for beer by restaurants, bars and grocery stores.Canopy Growth Corporation Terminates Co-Founder and Co-CEO Bruce LintonCanopy Growth Corporation (TSE: WEED) today announced that co-CEO Bruce Linton has stepped down as chief executive and board member.However, Linton, who co-founded the company in 2013, called into CNBC to clarify that he was fired from the world’s largest cannabis company.“I think stepping down might not be the right phrase,” he said. “I was terminated.”Mark Zekulin, who had been co-CEO with Linton, will takeover as the sole CEO, while Canopy works to identify a replacement.Last August, Constellation Brands upped its investment in the company, spending $4 billion to acquire 104.5 million shares of Canopy, raising its stake to about 38 percent.In April, it struck a deal with Acreage Holdings, agreeing to acquire the New York-based cannabis company for $3.4 billion when marijuana becomes federally legal in the U.S.Linton had a knack for deal making, and helped lead a company that was growing revenue at a healthy clip, but Canopy last month reported a record low gross margin of 16 percent during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, and an EBITDA loss of $98 million.Meanwhile, during Constellation Brands’ first quarter earnings call, CEO Bill Newlands said the company was “not pleased” with Canopy’s recent financial results.Bell’s Offers Employees Assistance in Obtaining GEDsBell’s Brewery is making an effort to help employees without high school diplomas to pass the GED (General Educational Development) test. The Michigan craft brewery is offering employees access to free tests, online study tools in and a personal advisor through the GEDWorks program.Bell’s human resources services manager Emily Schuiling said in a press release. “When we discovered a talent pool that was rich in passion and dedication, but didn’t meet the hiring requirements for some of our roles, we knew we needed to help fill that gap. GEDWorks has been nothing short of amazing,” Bell’s employs more than 550 workers across 41 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico.Subscribe to Craft Beer Storm Podcast iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/craft-beer-storm/id1438117278?mt=2*** A Top 20 Podcast in Food on iTunes ***Michael Potorti is the Host of Craft Beer Storm and Founder/Brewer at Beara Brewing Co. in Portsmouth, NH*** Interested in starting your own brewery?

Note: These episodes were recorded earlier this year and some news has come out about several of the companies mentioned in this episode. We will be releasing a follow-up episode soon to address the updates. Make sure you subscribe so you don't miss it! Given my astute ability at sniffing out BS, people often reach out to me asking me for recommendations on which companies to invest in. I decided to call upon my favorite, and most trusted wealth advisor, Colby Mcfadden of Quiver Financial and Green Flower Media, to make a series about investing in the cannabis industry to better educate myself, and the masses alike. Let me know what you think! List of Topics/subjects discussed How national legalization will lead to globalization How globalization will impact the US industry Why would an individual investor prefer cannabis to be rescheduled when funds like Acreage Holdings are pushing for legalization What types of investments should people go for keeping national legalization in mind When you have a short time to invest - spend the time doing due diligence Signs you should be aware of, ie CEO pressuring to close, etc What will happen when hemp is globalized now that it has been removed from the CSA(Controlled Substances Act) Should you be concerned about investing in companies that use 3rd world labor What's going to happen to the culture of the industry 3 Lessons Learned Globalization will make the hemp costs go down due to competition and lower costs in 3rd world companies and consolidated businesses Invest in large facilities because size is going to matter to the big corporations that eat them up. Invest in front of the consolidation, ie who's best for being merged/rolled up Question the motives of CEO's and hedge fund managers when they are preaching for national legalization - who really benefits?

Advocates fume that these new cannabis companies are pulling in billions without supporting orgs that have done the hard work for the last 60 years.That’s the question this episode obliquely addresses with two insightful men: Kris Krane, activist turned co-founder of 4Front, an investment and multistate dispensary firm, and Bruce Barcott, Deputy Editor at Leafly, who asks if corporate insensitivity and greed killed NY’s failed legalization effort.This episode is supported by Atlas Growers.Corporate cannabis has been facing some strong headwinds as of late. In March, former Leader of the House John Boehner took the stage at South By Southwest to explain how he became a supporter of legal cannabis and board member of Acreage Holdings. Outside the hall small protests flared. Their concern was that he was lining his pockets without acknowledging how the Drug War policies he supported continue to keep people locked in jail for cannabis offenses. Other activists are grumbling that newly formed companies are pulling in billions without supporting orgs like NORML, Marijuana Policy Project, or Drug Policy Alliance that have done the hard work of driving change over the last 60 years. Some CEOs even brag that they have never used the plant in an attempt to woo skittish investors and distance themselves from the culture.Kris Krane thinks that is a bone-headed idea, akin to the head of a wine company distancing himself from his product because he fears being labeled a drunk. An activist turned businessman, Krane occupies a unique position in the industry. He earned his bona fides on the advocacy side, first as associate director of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws and subsequently as co-founder of Students for Sensible Drug Policy, where he campaigned to scale back the law that denies federal financial aid to students with drug convictions. Today, as leader of 4front he sees his role as building bridges between advocates who fought to change the laws that businesspeople are now profiting from. Our short interview is with Leafly’s Bruce Barcott, who last week penned a piece examining how New York, a state with over 20 million people (and the country’s largest cannabis black market), bungled legalization. Was Governor Cuomo, never a natural ally of cannabis, too anemic in his support for legalization? Were legislators happy to let the issue die on the vine for fear of voter backlash? Or did certain cannabis corporations, in their urgency to grab market share, run roughshod over advocates who were trying to ensure justice and funding for communities decimated by the drug wars?Listen in to hear Bruce’s take on this historic missed opportunity.More on Atlas GrowersEdmonton-based Atlas Growers is soon to be the largest producer of medical cannabis in Canada.Atlas's pharmaceutically viable cannabis flower and cannabis products are cultivated in a state-of-the-art, 38,000 square foot controlled-environment agricultural facility.

CBS rejects Acreage Holding's marijuana Super Bowl commercial. OG Kennedy gives a deep dive on the rejection and talks about the shortest job he has ever worked. The super bowl commercial was for medical marijuana for medical purposes. Is it fair that it got rejected?
This week on The Cannabis Podcast with Ian Beckles, he discusses Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis demanding a repeal on the state's smokable cannabis ban, which is long overdue. The current laws are so outdated and antiquated that it's refreshing that things are finally turning around. Also on the show, Ian talks about the hypocrisy of CBS turning down a Super Bowl commercial from Acreage Holdings, who won't take money for a medical marijuana commercial but continues to take money from beer and alcohol.

An exclusive interview with former Massachusetts governor and cannabis legalization maverick, Bill Weld.Bill Weld has been a maverick politician ever since he was elected as the (libertarian) Republican governor of deep blue Massachusetts. Not only was he among the first American office holders to preach the benefits of legalization in 1991—five years before California legalized—he was also one of the earliest proponents of LGBTQ rights. He was a fiscally conservative social liberal with a gin dry sense of humor. When once challenged about Blueblood ancestors who had come over on the Mayflower, Weld quipped: "Actually, they weren't on the Mayflower. They sent the servants over first to get the cottage ready.” Weld was an extremely popular governor -- the citizens of Massachusetts reelected him for a second term in 1994 by a 71% majority. His last run for public office was as Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson’s Vice President running mate in the 2016 presidential race.Along with the ex-Speaker of the House John Boehner and the former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, Weld joined the board of the multi-state, venture-backed cannabis company, Acreage Holdings this year. The fine men and women at Acreage invited me to interview him on stage at the Cannabis World Congress exposition in Boston on October 19, 2018.Bill told me that even while he has had a long and friendly relationship with alcohol, he has never sampled cannabis or tobacco. He became aware of the plant’s value when he saw it reduce the number of seizures and suffering in a family member with epilepsy. Unlike many politicians and self-proclaimed “experts,” he is uncomfortable predicting the future of the industry, but he doesn’t shy away from discussing the thornier aspects of normalizing the plant in the US.In this interview we discuss the Trump administration’s August 18 not-so “secret plan” to create a disinformation campaign about marijuana to spark fear in the population; whether big pharma and tobacco will swoop in to gobble up the industry once federal legalization occurs; and the administration’s hysterical threat to close the northern border to any Canadian involved in the cannabis industry. “People in Washington should try to be less hysterical,” he says. “It’s not like those Canadians are transmitting syphilis. It’s crazy.”Thanks to Christine Ianuzzi and her great team of sound engineers, Matthew Bailey and Will Senedzuk for recording and allowing us to share this audio.
