One Marijuana Stock Aiming To Dominate The US Market

Though the excitement is on Canada right now, we can’t forget that the US market is still in its “early stages”. Better yet is that the 2018 Farm Bill has officially be signed in by the President of the United States; a pivotal decision that could be a huge catalyst for US marijuana stocks. One of the hottest markets, which is in California, continues to present massive opportunity especially considering its recent move to go legal for medical and recreational cannabis.

California’s passage of a ballot initiative (Proposition 64) to legalize recreational marijuana is important because of the sheer size of the state. The medical marijuana market in California was nearly $3 billion in 2017, which is about twice the size of Colorado’s entire marijuana market.

According to estimates from Arcview Market Research and BDS Analytics, by 2022, California’s total marijuana market could be somewhere around $7.7 billion. With the state of California having commenced recreational sales on January 1st, 2018, it is poised to become the largest cannabis market in North America.

Next Green Wave (NXGWF) (NGW) Could Present Early Potential Right Now!

Aside from the fact that Next Green Wave (NXGWF) (NGW)’s framework is built on a model that is well suited for scaling into the ever-expanding California cannabis industry.

Next Green Wave (NXGWF) (NGW) holds all four Conditional Use Permits in California. These include one of each of the following: cultivation, operation of a functioning nursery, extraction and distribution of cannabis. Not only does this support a fully optimized business model but it also takes away the usual distribution barriers that some companies in this market face. Furthermore, Next Green Wave (NXGWF) (NGW) has both the medical and recreational sides covered.

Like a number of the large market leaders, Next Green Wave (NXGWF) (NGW) is taking a strategic approach to the market and ensuring that it can handle a full scale, seed-to-sale business. For example, holding both a nursery and cultivation license gives Next Green Wave (NXGWF) (NGW) a unique ability to make full use of every product cultivated, selling not only the flower but also seeds, clones, by-products and concentrates, which ultimately gives the company multiple revenue streams.

On another side of the coin is extraction, which has been holding a bright spotlight recently in the media. Extraction processes allow companies like Next Green Wave (NXGWF) (NGW) to produce pure cannabidiol (CBD) and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). The by-products allow NGW to infuse these into edibles, topicals and other cannabinoid products, which some have identified as major revenue drivers for future growth.

If the “neighbors to the North” can be a gauge, according to Health Canada statistics, sales of cannabis oil in the first three months of 2018 outpaced those of dried flower by 56%. In terms of year-over-year growth for the two forms of cannabis, extracts are easily the winner with a large increase of 82% over the same period in 2017 compared to a 13% in year over year performance for dried flower.

But then you also need to consider that NGW has more. A distribution license rounds out the offering and allows the company to implement targeted brand, marketing, sales, and distribution strategies to sell in-house branded products as well as partners’ branded products.

Also bear in mind that Next Green Wave (NXGWF) (NGW) has raised over CAD$21 million dollars prior to its IPO, which it is currently using to acquire, design and build state-of-the-art production facilities that will fully utilize all 4 Conditional Use Permits. Further, according to the company’s Chairman, Leigh Hughes in his interview in The Australian, it gives them a strong competitive advantage and it reflects Next Green Wave (NXGWF) (NGW)’s B2B business model.

The company has already acquired 3,240-sqft space recently, Facility C, which is being retrofitted to become Next Green Wave’s extraction and research & development facility as well as its distribution hub.

On top of all of this, there’s another 250,000-sqft used for greenhouse space that will be built as Facility D and begin to create a nursery and grow revenue by 2020*.
