Microgrid Company May Be Best Cannabis Play

HENDERSON, NV / ACCESSWIRE / February 20, 2019 / Cannabis stocks were mixed on Tuesday, amid a flurry of announcements on the progress of medical and recreational-use bills around the U.S.

Pennsylvania's medical cannabis businesses made at least 600,000 transactions in its first year, allowing 83,000 patients access to the substance, Gov. Tom Wolf announced over the weekend. Sales totaled more than $132 million with the commonwealth collecting more than $2 million in tax revenue to date. No matter what the short-term reaction has been, these are good signs for the long-term viability of the industry. One of our favorite companies involved in the cannabis business isn't a cannabis company itself, however, serves the industry with their ground breaking microgrid power solution. CleanSpark, Inc. (CLSK)'s microgrid power solution for the cannabis industry cuts the monthly electricity bill of indoor grow-houses by up to 82%. This is probably an ideal time to research CLSK, if you haven't yet heard of this microgrid company that has been gaining investor interest due to some very promising news.

Today we are highlighting: CleanSpark, Inc. (CLSK), Aurora Cannabis, Inc. (ACB), Cronos Group, Inc. (CRON), Canopy Growth Corporation (CGC), and Aphria, Inc. (APHA).

CleanSpark, Inc. (CLSK) (Market Cap: $176.335M, Share Price: $4.25), as we mentioned, has an impressive power solution for the cannabis industry and will likely thrive as the cannabis industry grows. However, CLSK is not reliant upon cannabis alone. The company just crossed major milestone executing its first contract outside of the United States, being awarded a contract to serve as the technical consultant for a large industrial park in Costa Rica.

CLSK is currently working with NYSE company MAC on a project that could be worth $18 million.

The company was also just added to the LD Micro Index, which consists of 1000 companies and only 4% are OTC listed making CLSK's addition all that more impressive.

CLSK also completed the acquisition of Pioneer Power Solutions, Inc.; Pioneer has delivered $32 million in products since 2016 and has $5 million in backlog. The Company will add $3.6 million in gross sales to CLSK's bottom line during early 2019 alone.

One of Canopy's largest competitors and one of the few cannabis plays in the red Friday, Aurora Cannabis, Inc. (ACB) (Market Cap: $6.882B, Share Price: $6.93), recently provided an update to its strategic investment in High Tide Inc, an Alberta-based, vertically-integrated cannabis corporation. Since Aurora first invested its initial $10 million in the High Tide convertible debenture offering back in December 2018, the Company has achieved impressive amounts of strategic growth. High Tide is rapidly expanding its retail operations with an additional 26 stores presently under various stages of construction.

Cronos Group, Inc. (CRON) (Market Cap: $3.844B, Share Price: $21.61) announced in early December 2018 that it had entered into a subscription agreement with Altria Group, Inc., one of the leading tobacco brands in the world, pursuant to which Altria agreed to make an approximately C$2.4 billion equity investment in Cronos Group on a private placement basis in exchange for common shares in the capital of the Company.

Canopy Growth Corporation (CGC) (Market Cap: $15.844B, Share Price: $46.39) recently announced it will establish within the Hemp Industrial Park large-scale production capabilities focused on hemp extraction and product manufacturing within the United States. Depending on Board approval of a specific site, Canopy Growth intends to invest between $100 million USD and $150 million USD in its New York operations, capable of producing tons of hemp extract on an annual basis.

Finally, Aphria, Inc. (APHA) (Market Cap: $2.42B, Share Price: $9.71) said a special committee has concluded a review of the September acquisition of Latam Holdings Inc. and found conflicts of interest for some of its board members. The committee did, however, find that the price paid was within an ''acceptable'' range compared with comparable deals done by its competitors albeit near the high end of that range. The market has reacted favorably to their news.
