2018’s legalization of recreational cannabis in Canada has triggered a potentially explosive investment opportunity.
The Canadian government legalized recreational cannabis on October 17th, 2018 and sales at cannabis stores in the first 15 days after legalization totalled $43 million according to Statistics Canada.1 Canadians spent $1.6 billion on legal cannabis in 2018, more than double the amount that was spent solely on medical cannabis in 2017, according to a new report, making it the #3 legal cannabis market in the world.


High Tide Inc. Appears Significantly
Undervalued… But for How Much Longer?
High Tide’s (CSE: HITI, OTC: HITIF, FRA: 2LY) established retail presence in the Canadian market gives the company a significant edge when compared to U.S.- based comparable companies. Many High Tide retail locations enjoy first-to-market advantages in prime real estate locations.
Making this an even more attractive scenario is High Tide’s (CSE: HITI, OTC: HITIF, FRA: 2LY) current valuation scenario. Since the company only recently became publicly-listed, the market cap for High Tide is far below other comparable peers in the industry.
Explosive Growth Potential for High Tide
*All information presented as of March 28th, 2019
** There are numerous reasons that could cause differences in market cap, including jurisdiction of operation, the cash position of the company, history of financial performance, etc.
In fact, there are companies with ZERO retail stores open such as Solo Growth and only ONE retail store open such as Westleaf – that currently have a market cap many times higher than that of High Tide.
At the moment, High Tide’s (CSE: HITI, OTC: HITIF, FRA: 2LY) shares are trading at approximately 8x Revenue (TTM), while many comparable companies are trading at an average of 20x Revenue (TTM). Thanks to Canada’s nationwide legalization of recreational cannabis, High Tide has the potential to grow faster than companies like MedMen or Trulieve.
This strong retail foothold – which High Tide (CSE: HITI, OTC: HITIF, FRA: 2LY) has already established with businesses like Canna Cabana – has allowed the company to begin an aggressive expansion campaign which includes additional locations with a goal of exceeding 120 locations nationwide over the next two years.
The window of opportunity for you to invest in companies like MedMen and Trulieve has already closed.
BREAKING NEWS
Aphria Anchors High Tide $10 Million Capital Raise
April 10,2019 – High Tide announced that it has launched a non-brokered private placement for the sale of up to 10,000 convertible debentures for gross proceeds of up to $10 million CDN. The offering is anchored by an order from Aphria Inc. in the amount of $4.5 million CDN. 12
This is a company following a proven blueprint for success – and as the number of retail locations increases, the potential exists for a corresponding increase in market capitalization that could offer you a “second chance” at significant cannabis profits. But this scenario could change at any minute, as investors and market-makers gain awareness about the company’s high-upside potential.
High Tide Capital Investment
Another point that makes High Tide (CSE: HITI, OTC: HITIF, FRA: 2LY) especially attractive is that within the past several months, the company has completed two capital raises – totalling $29.6 million – to help achieve its growth initiatives.
High Tide Inc. Strongly Positioned for the Coming Explosion in Retail Cannabis Growth
Investors who aren’t looking at retail could be missing a huge opportunity. Leading up to legalization, licensed growers saw their stocks on an upward trend for the year, sparked by speculation and huge investment into the market.
Once legalization hit, the bottom dropped out as investors started to think these companies’ valuations were possibly skewed by the hype.
Now that cannabis is legal in Canada and financial reports begin to roll in, it will be easier to separate the contenders from the pretenders and make better, informed choices. One of the contenders is High Tide (CSE: HITI, OTC: HITIF, FRA: 2LY).
National Access Cannabis Corp. reported on January 10 that their 20 retail locations saw $10.18 million in sales in just 80 days since legalization, with an average gross margin of over 32%.
These numbers should be seen as promising to investors, as it shows the demand for cannabis in retail outlets is strong and will only be increased as new products are introduced and shortages decreased.
“We believe that by 2020, the legal market for adult- use cannabis will approach $6.5 billion in retail sales,” CIBC said. “For context, this is greater than the amount of spirits sold in this country, and approaches wine in scale.” 12
Huge Success for Cannabis in
Retail Sales Per Square Foot
With three distinct retail enterprises – and a rapidly-growing number of locations – High Tide (CSE: HITI, OTC: HITIF, FRA: 2LY) is well positioned to take advantage of the projected explosion in growth in the retail cannabis space.
And cannabis retailers are now outperforming some of the world’s biggest brands on a dollar-per-square foot basis:
MedMen is generating annualized revenue-per-square-foot of US$6,541 (CA$8,470).
By comparison, according to CoStar, the average sales per square foot for an Apple store is approximately US$5,546 (CA$7,282) and approximately US$2,951 (CA$3,875) for Tiffany & Co. stores. 5 According to Arcview Research, global spending in the retail cannabis market is expected to grow from $12.9 billion in 2018 to $32 billion by 2022. 6
2019 Explosion Of Cannabis Mergers
And Acquisitions Predicted
2019 which looks like a it could be a huge year for industry mergers, acquisitions and expansion. Large companies, like those in the food, tobacco and pharmaceutical industries have mostly stayed on the sidelines, held back by regulatory concerns, but are now expected to enter the market.
Cannabis companies are very aware that they could be acquired. For the ones going public, “the one common question they all have beforehand is how this move will position them as a potential acquisition target,” said Scott Hammon, COO at The MGO | ELLO National Cannabis Alliance, a firm in the cannabis financial, tax and advisory services.
Acquisitions are common, in July 2018 when Canopy Growth Corp. acquired Hiku Brands, Ltd – the parent company of cannabis lifestyle brand Tokyo Smoke – for $270 million. 7 This acquisition by Canopy Growth Corp. of a cannabis lifestyle and retail play demonstrates the potential market for similar companies – something that followers of High Tide (CSE: HITI, OTC: HITIF, FRA: 2LY) should pay careful attention to.
But this acquisition was just one of several that have taken place in this space over the past several months.
For example, in November 2018 MedMen Enterprises acquired PharmaCann for $682 million (US). 9
