Five Stocks to Watch as Legal Marijuana Evolves
CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / April 2, 2019 / The marijuana stock market has been booming over the course of the past few years as a result of the sheer excitement surrounding the cannabis industry. Any investor who paid attention to the cannabis sector knows that companies responsible for growing cannabis have always rested at the top of the market. While producing cannabis is important for the industry, this completely overlooks the potential opportunities in investing in ancillary businesses operating within the sector. These cannabis companies are working to innovate the operational processes in order to make a better and more effective product for the marijuana industry. Nabis Holdings (INNPF) (NAB), Starbucks Corporation (SBUX), Green Growth Brands Inc (GGBXF), Cresco Labs Inc (CRLBF), and Cronos Group Inc (NASDAQ: CRON, TSX: CRON) are 5 stocks worth keeping track of as the cannabis industry continues to evolve.
Nabis Holdings (INNPF) (NAB) is a Canadian investment company laser-focused on making key investments in high-quality cash flowing assets across all aspects of the cannabis sector mainly in U.S. limited license states. The company has a keen sense for identifying and acquiring a majority stake in cannabis brands and assets to generate high-quality cash flows.
Nabis Holdings (INNPF) (NAB) dominated headlines last month when the Company announced that it has entered into a revised agreement, co-led by Canaccord Genuity Corp. and Eventus Capital Corp., to increase the size of its previously announced amended brokered private placement of debenture units to raise gross proceeds of up to C$35,000,000.
Per the details of the agreement, the Company has increased the Agents' option, exercisable at any time up until 48 hours prior to the Closing Date, to arrange for the sale of additional Debenture Units for additional aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of up to C$10,000,000. If the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full, the aggregate gross proceeds of the Amended Offering will be C$45,000,000. The Company plans on using the net proceeds of the offering to fund cannabis related investments, for strategic investment opportunities and for general working capital purposes.
