Marijuana Legalization 2015: With The Pot Industry Poised To Hit $50 Billion By 2019, The Days Of Easy Cannabis Licensing Are Over
May 23, 2015
CHICAGO – With federal legalization efforts moving forward, pot entrepreneurs might want to focus on the recreational side of the business rather than the medical side, as major pharmaceutical companies are poised to jump in there. That’s the future, according to Adam Bierman, managing partner of MedMen, a marijuana consulting firm headquartered in Los Angeles. Bierman spoke at this week’s Marijuana Business Conference and Expo in Chicago.
“Right now two separate things here are intertwined [the medical and recreational sales of marijuana],” Bierman told a panel on business opportunities in states that are just now opening up marketplaces for medical marijuana: New York, Nevada and Illinois. “Once it’s legalized on the federal level, you guys can’t play on the pharmaceutical side. You’re not going to compete with Pfizer. You have a chance to get on the recreational side because the big players aren’t playing.”
Today, the federal government lists marijuana as a Schedule I drug, making it illegal, even though 23 states and the District of Columbia have legalized medical marijuana and four states — Colorado, Washington, Oregon and Alaska — plus the District of Columbia have approved recreational use.
But once the federal government removes marijuana from the list of controlled substances, “Big Pharma will get involved and you’ll be picking up your prescriptions at Walgreens or CVS,” Bierman said.
In states where medical marijuana was legalized 10 to 15 years ago, obtaining a license to grow pot used to be easy, especially in unregulated states like California and Michigan, where many people started growing operations in their basements. Now, however, the upfront investment is headed north of the $1 million mark and the number of licenses available is strictly limited.
The real opportunities for people who want to get involved are in ancillary services: legal, accounting, medical, equipment, marketing and accessories. You have to find a niche.
“Niche is a big piece,” said Trent Woloveck, chief operating officer of American Cannabis Consulting, who was also on the panel with Bierman. “What is your value add?”
Aviva Jeruchim of Boston is one such niche entrepreneur. Her Leaf Goods LLC plans to produce “fashion-forward carrying cases” for cannabis. Right now she’s concentrating on secure cases for the leaves themselves. She sees a market, however, for cases for edibles and health and beauty aids as well.
Ana Davila of New York is interested in packaging.
“I have plants in Asia. Right now we produce plastics for children. Those plants could be turned for marijuana packaging,” she said.
In addition to the high cost of a license to establish marijuana growing and dispensary operations – and the escalating state licensing fees – those seeking approvals to open a marijuana growing operation must prove they have the necessary real estate in hand, whether owned or leased, and the necessary capital to fund the business for at least six months before the first bud is sold.
The funding is complicated by banks’ reluctance to get involved in an industry illegal on the federal level — after all, whether national or state, banks are governed by federal law. The resulting difficulty of moving funds has made pot a predominantly cash business with all the danger that poses to the businesses and the community at large.
Additionally, the application process is growing more complex. Kris Krane, managing partner of the retail consulting group 4front Advisors, noted the applications can run thousands of pages, and in fact an application the group helped put together in Illinois took up 10 full cardboard boxes. The applications need detailed plans for how a facility will be constructed, funded and secured, in addition to a business plan and projections for growth.
“If your application is only 50 pages, you’re not getting a license,” Krane said. “If you’re not working around the clock, you’re not getting a license.”
Dr. William Lauth of Geneva Life Sciences experienced this firsthand. His company went after one of the Illinois licenses granted earlier this year but failed to get it and he has soured on the state’s hyper-regulated market where only 2,300 patients have been certified and would be able to buy marijuana legally.
“Most doctors here [in Illinois] have no idea how effective marijuana can be in treating patients,” Lauth said. “In general they’re very conservative. Ninety percent are against it because of federal laws.”
Instead Lauth has turned his attention to Nevada and partnered with Vegas Valley Growers LLC, which says it is investing $2.5 million to $3 million in a grow center in the Las Vegas area. Vegas Valley Growers hopes to bring in its first crop in September and expects to grow 5,000 pounds a year, and five to six crops.
Lauth sees Nevada as a much more lucrative market. It already has 11,000 patients signed up. Additionally, the Legislature decided to recognize the medical cards of marijuana user from other states, opening the way for the 45 million visitors the state sees annually to buy products. There’s also a referendum on recreational marijuana planned for the 2016 ballot.
Legal cannabis already is an $11 billion business, including growing operations, processing and ancillary businesses, and Marijuana Business Daily projections show the industry growing to $30 billion by 2019, with other estimates as high as $50 billion. Recreational and medicinal sales through dispensaries alone this year are projected to reach $3 billion, growing to $8 billion by 2019. This has all happened as numerous states have moved to legalize or decriminalize marijuana, even though the federal government has not.
“The federal government’s position is very unclear,” said Chris Walsh, managing editor of Marijuana Business Daily, which organized the conference at the Chicago Hilton. “But the overall climate has improved dramatically.”
Nine more states currently are considering medical marijuana legislation, and enterprising marijuana business owners are doing everything they can to position themselves to be on the front lines.
The key to a successful operation, Krane said, is local community support, a sentiment echoed by Meg Sanders, CEO of MiNDFUL, a Colorado dispensary operator.
“We don’t go where they don’t want us,” Sanders said. “It’s not worth the fight.”
Sanders recommended those hoping to get into the “leaf-touching” end of the business hire a government affairs person and understand the election cycles of the communities in which they’re involved. She also said getting involved in a community is key.
“We call it doing well by doing good,” she said.

Estimated $10 Billion Marijuana Sales In 2015 Far Too Low ~NSAV
DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA: When new business segments start to reach $1 billion in annual sales, they often get noticed by new business and venture seekers. But when new business segments reach $10 billion in annual sales, let’s just say that venture backers, speculators and business owners want to get a piece of the next big thing. If recent data from the Marijuana Business Daily turns out to be accurate, then the legalized marijuana business is likely to hit $10 billion in 2015 alone.
What is interesting about this figure is that the dispensaries and recreational stores were shown to account for only about $3.1 billion of that total. Also, that $10 billion total comes from a projected range of $9.6 to $11.1 billion — versus a 2014 range of $7.2 billion to $8.6 billion.
24/7 Wall St. wanted to go a step further on this issue about the economy of legalized marijuana. The reason here is simple: the projections have the legal marijuana business close to $30 billion by the year 2019, and there are so many issues not counted in the figures that the numbers could be much larger.
The Marijuana Business Daily also projected that each $1.00 of cannabis sold at the retail level (legally) adds at least another $2.60 to the economy in states where medical or recreational cannabis is legal.

Plenty going forward with NSAV...
The Number Of Plants
The state of Colorado was cranking out almost 17,000 new plants each day at the end of 2014.
That would be enough for every resident in Sterling to have one every day.
At year's end, Colorado recreational pot growers were cultivating more than 200,000 new plants each month to support their businesses, compared to just 25,000 in January, the first month of legal sales.
Plants need to be designated as either "retail" or "medical" when they are potted.
By contrast, growers cranked out more than 300,000 new medical plants in all but two months of the year.
Each plant is tagged with an RFID chip, which is tracked through each step of cultivation and preparation for sale.
The state tracking system logged 37 million "events," including new cutting planted and plants processed into various products.

excellent post in regards to calculation...I like the idea that you used P/E ratio of 15... the low end

"Could your next job be in the legal marijuana industry? It's already the fastest-growing business in the U.S. and is expected to generate $10.8 billion in sales in 2019, a huge increase from $2.7 billion seen in 2014"
"This growth has fueled a hiring boom. Colorado's industry alone has created 10,000 jobs, according to one report. Thousands more may come on line as the industry continues to evolve.."

Highlights of 5/15 Revenue and Customer Acquisition Rates PR
May 5, 2015: NSAV Announces Revenue and Customer Acquisition Rates since the Closing of the Pyrotree Acquisition
1. For the 6 months prior to our acquisition by NSAV, we were adding an average of 29 new customers per month.
2. In the 2 weeks since the acquisition, we added 188 new customers for the month of April, and our current trajectory for May should exceed April’s numbers
3. NSAV has given us additional reach and credibility that we did not previously possess, and we are very pleased with the significant increase in customer acquisition that occurred immediately after we became a wholly owned subsidiary of NSAV
> I am reading additional revenues and net income when I read "additional reach and credibility"
4. NSAV is **determined to allocate the necessary resources** of personnel and financial commitment to continue to maintain the current growth trajectory that Pyrotree is now experiencing, and we are pleased to report that NSAV is now showing revenue for the first time since our current management team took control of NSAV over the previous management team last June, 2014
> Determination + resources allocation + growth = Success & $$$
5. Our page views and unique visitor data, as determined by Google Analytics, have[/color] doubled, and in some cases , actually tripled on a day over day basis for new traffic to our product websites since our acquisition by NSAV.
6. This has clearly been a significant contributing factor towards our growth trend, and as we continue to implement ongoing and continuous S.E.O techniques to maximize organic growth of our sites to attract new customers, we have reasonable expectations that this growth trend will continue to develop, and accordingly, will produce ongoing revenue
7. All of the Keywords such as “420 web design, cannabis web design, marijuana website design, etc, we are already ranking either #1 or #2 in the search engines and we are also showing tremendous growth in impressions as more and more people search for related services in this growing industry. Most of our competitors who rank above or below us were established before us when we were known as “Code Kush”, and we have already beaten them to the #1 and #2 ranks
8. Out of 30-40 firms in this industry, and with us being about the 15th to enter the sector, we have already established #1 and #2 rankings with growth in many other keywords and sectors, which will facilitate organic growth of our brand and product suite.
> It hasn't been long since the acquisition and www.pyrotree.com is already pegging the top of the rankings. The PRs and new attention must be doing wonders for these rankings which will attract new clients. I wonder what the publicity and demand for Pyrotree will be like one year from now!?!!
9. Pyrotree and NSAV are in the process of fully integrating a complete “seed to PAYMENT” RFID tracking/traceability system into the Pyrotree POS software that will be able to track every step of the manufacturing process, from:
1) Initial seedling stage, and through every stage of;
2) Development
3) Production
4) Distribution
5) Retail sale
6) Up to and including the actual purchase by the end user consumer
> Notice the key success factor they are after to add value by FULLY integrating RFID with the POS system = $$$
10. We are currently unaware of ***any other firm***at is including the end user consumer PAYMENT as part of the RFID solution.
> Can you say first to market and competitive edge to capture the market quickly; Microsoft office and Chrysler minivan come to mind! Remember this post: http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=113150129
11. This will ensure that:
1) Sales are only made to those that are of legal age and legal permission to purchase the products
2) Allowing for the payment type to be fully documented
3) Every product sold to the consumer will actually be able to be traced back to the exact grower
4) Even the exact plant that the consumer’s product originated from
> Sounds like one kick-ass integrated system that the governments and large growers would use. Don't you agree?!! Please take a number to pay for our system!
12. This provides a level of:
1) Traceability
2) Safety
3) Compliance
that is currently ***unheard of in today’s market sector***, and we are pleased to be leading the way in this innovative system of full accountability that will benefit everyone in the process, from the growers, all the way down to the end consumer user of the various products
> When I read full accountability, I am thinking governments and taxations as first thoughts of who NSAV's clients will be. Can you say smart!?!!
13. This will clearly be a significant additional revenue source for NSAV and Pyrotree as it develops, and we will provide more details as they become available
> Self explanatory = $$$
