TORONTO, ON and NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 10/13/16 --
iAnthus Capital Holdings, Inc. ("iAnthus" or the "Company") (CSE: IAN), which delivers a comprehensive solution for financing and managing licensed cannabis cultivators, processors and dispensaries throughout the United States, today announced the closing of its investment in Reynolds Greenleaf & Associates, LLC ("RGA"), a medical cannabis management company in New Mexico. RGA has management agreements in place with three vertically-integrated, non-profit medical cannabis license holders and one for-profit manufacturer licensee. The clinics managed by RGA collectively have a current 16% share of the market for medical cannabis sales, the largest in the state.
Pursuant to the transaction, iAnthus has converted its existing US$2.3 million loan facility into preferred equity in RGA. The loan facility was initially funded by iAnthus in January 2016 and RGA has used the proceeds to date for the expansion and upgrade of its cultivation operations, launching a dispensary expansion program throughout New Mexico, and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. iAnthus may invest additional funds over the next several months as RGA further executes on its expansion plans.
"New Mexico has been at the forefront of providing access to medical cannabis and there remains a large market opportunity throughout the state, with limited competition due to a cap on the number of authorized license holders. RGA is a proven market leader and its revenue has been growing rapidly since its founding in 2014," said Randy Maslow, President of iAnthus. "RGA is an important part of our strategy to invest in leading operators across multiple favorable regulated cannabis markets in the U.S."
William Ford, RGA's Founder and Managing Director, added: "Partnering with iAnthus will allow us to implement our growth strategy to expand our clinical operations, as well as complete development of a production strategy to provide value-added cannabis infused products for our license holders and others in New Mexico."
RGA has management agreements with R. Greenleaf Organics, Medzen Services, G&G Genetics and Elemental Kitchen and Laboratories. It currently manages a production facility, three cultivation operations with a total of 1,350 plants, and four clinic locations in Albuquerque. The clinics managed by RGA collectively constitute the market share leader for medical cannabis sales in the state.
