Harvest Health Is an Overlooked, Undervalued Cannabis Stock
The once over hyped cannabis sector is now under pressure as results from the Canadian LPs fail to meet forecasts and the U.S. struggles to approve cannabis at the federal level. Investors need to finally move beyond the hype and separate the companies like Harvest Health & Recreation (HRVSF) that have a reasonable path to profits with a catalyst to higher stock prices.Still WaitingHarvest Health is now down 50% from the highs above $10. Most of the U.S. multi-state operators (MSOs) are down similar amounts this year as the cannabis trade falters in both Canada and the U.S. with one big difference. The American companies trade at much more reasonable market valuations.For Harvest Health and the other big MSOs like Curaleaf (CURLF) and Cresco Labs (CRLBF), the companies are still waiting to close large scale deals announced earlier this year. Without digging into the details, Harvest Health on the surface still looks like a rather small cannabis player with Q2 revenues of only $26.6 million and a market valuation of $1.5 billion.The company still looks like a minor player in the industry with Canadian companies reporting revenues topping C$100 million and constantly discussing big global expansion plans. The U.S. players face the lack of Federal cannabis approval that has made no progress during the summer months. The lack of approval has killed a major catalyst in uplisting the stocks in the major U.S. stock exchanges.More importantly, none of the big cannabis deals in the U.S. have closed leading to more market uncertainty. The market hates uncertainty and a U.S. MSO is full of uncertainty right now.OpportunityHarvest Health reported Q2 proforma revenues of $78 million or an amount that would make the relatively unknown U.S. MSO the size of Aurora Cannabis (ACB) and far larger than the disaster at Canopy Growth (CGC). The problem is that the market is impatient in waiting for several large deals to close in the U.S. MSO sector.Ultimately, the patient investor will be rewarded with Harvest Health closes deals for Verano, Falcon and CannaPharmacy this year. The company will have 494 million shares outstanding for a market valuation of only $2.5 billion.An investor buying into the stock on this substantial weakness gets a cannabis company with projections of reaching 120+ dispensaries in 15 states by the end of 2020. The key figure is the revenue projection for sales reaching $900 million to $1 billion in 2020. Not many stocks in the sector trade at 2.5x ’20 sales estimates. Especially noteworthy is how Canopy Growth had a target for only C$1 billion in annual sales or $750 million with a market cap still up at $9.5 billion.These sales projections come without much in the way of full financial reports including gross profits and operating expenses leaving investors to prefer taking a cautionary view until the deals close. The only forecast is for Harvest Health reaching a 2020 EBITDA goal of 30% to 35%, but an investor has very limited visibility into those targets.TakeawayThe key investor takeaway is that Harvest Health & Recreation is an overlooked U.S. MSO. The company faces some risk due to the inability to close pending acquisitions, though the market appears to be extrapolating the risks too far. Use the weakness to snap up a leading cannabis stock at 2.5x ’20 sales projections.Disclosure: No position.To get TipRanks' stock analysis report on Harvest Health, click here

Is the Growth Story for Harvest Health Still Intact?
Due to rapid expansion, Harvest Health & Recreation (HRVSF) is going the path of borrowing money from an investment fund. The asset-back financing adds risk to a growth story that is usually best fueled via equity offerings.Need For CashHarvest Health is in the midst of multiple acquisitions that will transform the U.S. multi-state operator (MSO) into a company with a revenue target approaching $1 billion in 2020. As a comparison, the company only generated 2018 revenues of $47 million.Harvest Health only had an adjusted EBITDA loss of $4.7 million in Q1 so operations aren’t burning a lot of cash. Lots of questions exist on where the financials will stand once all of the deals for Verano, Falcon, Devine and CannaPharmacy are closed. In addition, the company is in various stages of going from 15 retail locations at the end of Q1 to a plan that exceeds 120 dispensaries. All of these new facilities require cash to fund.When the company closed Q1 in March, Harvest Health had a cash balance of only $116 million with total debt of $29 million. A company in the retail sector looking to reach $1 billion in annual sales typically needs access to more cash than a net cash balance of $87 million to fuel expansion.The Verano deal at an initial price of $850 million is in all stock so the major acquisition doesn’t require cash. The company has several other deals in various stages of closing. Even with the stock down to $5, Harvest Health would have a market valuation approaching $3 billion once all the deals are closed.The company could easily complete a secondary for up to $300 million that only dilutes shareholders by 10%. The timing isn’t ideal with the stock down at the lows, but costly interest expenses and added risks of having to repay debts are less ideal.Questionable TermsHarvest Health has taken several paths to raise money via debt. The company recently signed a deal for convertible debt of up to $500 million. On May 13, the company closed on the first tranche of the 7% unsecured convertible debt to raise gross proceeds of $100 million.The debt has a maturity date of May 9, 2022 and a conversion price of $11.42. In addition, the debt holders received 3,502,666 warrants with an exercise price of C$18.17.Now, the company has signed a deal with Torian Capital Partners for a secured term loan of up to $225 million via multiple tranches. The loan is an asset-backed financing plan bearing an interest rate of 8% with an additional cost of warrants.The issue here is the complication and costs of debt versus just issuing equity whether ideal at the current price or not. Just $300 million in debt starts costing the company over $20 million in annual interest costs and the proposed amounts would more than double these interest costs.TakeawayThe key investor takeaway is that Harvest Health has a plan to generate substantial growth via acquisitions and organic growth, but the timing of generating substantial profits is unknown. Such unproven business models are best funded via equity that has no additional covenants and costs.The stock is appealing down at $5 but investors need to keep a keen eye on funding costs going forward.Compass Point analyst Rommel Dionisio recently initiated coverage on Harvest Health stock with a Buy rating and $11.00 price target, which implies about 100% upside from current levels.

Diversity In Cannabis: Making Sure Everyone Benefits And 'Not Just A Privileged Few'
In the cannabis space, diversity is often regarded as a particularly pressing need as a result of the adverse effect of the War on Drugs. The hurdles are numerous and include the country's private prison system and a lack of capital, according to industry contacts Benzinga spoke with. Despite the challenges, some do see recent positive activity in the fight to make the employees staffing the growing legal cannabis sector in the U.S. more reflective of the communities that cannabis companies serve.
