OVERVIEW

Market Overview
The size of the market for legal marijuana in the United States is projected to grow to $7.1 billion in
2016, that represents 26% growth over the previous year, driven largely by adult recreational sales
of marijuana, the researchers found. Legal adult recreational marijuana sales topped $998 million in
2015 compared to $351 million in 2014 – growing 184% year-over-year.
Continued revenue growth will attract more
investors (and convince them to dig deeper for
investments). The industry has already begun to
see signs of this, such as last year’s news that
cannabis-focused Privateer Holdings had
secured a $75 million investment from
Founders Fund, the firm founded by billionaire
Peter Thiel1.
Although the federal government still considers
the use of cannabis a criminal offence, nearly
half the states of America have legalized it in
some form. Most states sell it only for medical
purposes, often broadly defined. But four states
– Alaska, California, Oregon and Washington –
and the country's capital have gone further, legalizing the drug’s recreational use. Legal weed is more
high-priced than the black market variety, but it is better value: three times more potent, on average,
and only about 50% more expensive2.
1 http://www.arcviewmarketresearch.com/
2 http://www.economist.com/blogs/graphicdetail/2016/02/daily-chart-10
A total of 24 states have already
legalized marijuana in some forms.
The biggest driver of growth in
coming years is the legalization of
marijuana in some forms by more
states.
GROWTH FACTORS
In 2015, legal cannabis sales in the
U.S. reached $5.7 billion, a 23%
jump from the year before.
It is predicted that sales will further
grow by a whopping 26% in 2016,
reaching an estimated $7.1 billion
in total U.S. sales.

The industry’s continued expansion
was matched by equally strong growth
in popular support for cannabis
legalization nationally. According to
Gallup, 58% of Americans now support
legalization of cannabis for adult use,
up from 36% in 2005; a separate poll
by Harris found 81% of Americans
support legalization for medical use3.
Well-established medical cannabis
markets in states like California still
account for much of the country’s legal
marijuana sales, but recreational
marijuana sales are expected to help
fuel the cannabis market’s soaring
growth over the next few years, says
ArcView.
It projects that recreational cannabis
sales will account for more than half
(53%) of the overall market by 2020.
That would represent growth of more than 1,150% for recreational sales over the next four years4.

Target Market
In 1996, California became the first state to allow for medical
marijuana use. State voters approved Proposition 215, the law that
made it legal for doctors to recommend cannabis to patients.
California has 482 cities and 58 counties, all with the power to govern
their own medical marijuana industries. The methods they choose vary
throughout the state. Some local governments have rules limiting the
number of dispensaries and where they can open. Others passed
ordinances banning all marijuana cultivation.
In California the weather conditions are ideal for cultivating cannabis
outside, while a lot of marijuana is also grown indoors in massive
warehouses. The state's marketplace is also known for its decades-long
experience developing cannabis strains. Third-generation growers and
breeders have some unparalleled knowledge of the plant and of the
related regulatory environment compared to other states.
In the years since medical legalization, consumers have become more
educated and sophisticated about products, and the state's medical
market is relatively saturated. Consumers have high expectations for quality, according to ArcView research.
In 2015 Gov. Jerry Brown signed three bills that toughened regulations for medical cannabis businesses and sought standards for documentation and
testing. The bills are known as the Medical Marijuana Regulation and Safety Act, or MMRSA for short. Collectively, the legislation also paved the way for
medical cannabis businesses to turn a profit. The legislation is impacting marijuana business models in other ways.

Online Advertising Obstacles
Because cannabis is illegal under federal law, state governments and online advertising platforms are placing strict rules on how companies can market
their products.
Google, Facebook and Twitter all have advertising policies that restrict the promotion of the sale of cannabis. Google’s policy prohibits ads that promote
“substances that alter mental state for the purpose of recreation.” Facebook restricts any “illegal, prescription, or recreational drugs.” And Twitter bans
“illegal drugs” as well as substances that cause “legal highs.” Instagram and Facebook have decided to go a step further by removing pages of cannabis
related businesses.
Alternative Online Advertising Options
Three most effective strategies for legal marijuana companies are direct marketing at industry conferences and other events, building communities
around marijuana-related concerns such as health and wellness and aggregating online cannabis publishers, which don’t raise any legal concerns:
Mantis. Mantis provides alternative options for advertisers. The model is slightly different – the cost per click prices are set vs. a bid market. But
they offer a solid and growing network of sites including The Cannabist, Leafly, The Daily Chronic, and more. Mantis reaches 6 million unique visitors
each month. A nice complement to display ads is pay per click content marketing to promote a brand.
420 Network. Marketing themselves as “the advertising network for alternative lifestyle brands”, 420 Network offers both CPC and fixed price
advertising options.
420 Click. Offering targeted Pay Per Click ads that display across their network of cannabis related websites, 420 Click can be a great option for
getting service in front of an interested audience, and only be charged when someone clicks an ad. The site touts itself as “The Marijuana Advertising
Network” and an account can be launched for as little as $10 which makes the risk negligible.
Women Grow. Founded in 2014, Women Grow is now the largest national network of cannabis professionals with Monthly Events for women & men
in 45 cities across the US & Canada.
Cannabrand is a full-service cannabis branding agency, dedicated to the marketing of cannabis products and services.

OPERATIONAL PLAN

18.
17
While most businesses in any industry try to keep startup costs as low as possible, that isn’t necessarily the best way to proceed when opening a grow.
Creating a cost-efficient cultivation site often involves investing in technology and processes that may result in a big near-term hit. Optimally, our goal
is to be able to produce quality cannabis for $1 a gram.
Cultivation
The three primary methods of cultivation - outdoor,
greenhouse and indoor - have different production
profiles.
Outdoor cultivators produce one harvest per year in
the fall, whereas indoor cultivators produce year-
round and can generate between 4 and 6 harvests per
year. Greenhouse cultivators combine elements of
both - exploiting natural light, while leveraging
infrastructure and technology - to produce between 1
and 4 harvests per year, though sophisticated, well-
equipped greenhouses can run year-round on
schedules analogous to indoor production. The result
of this mix of cultivation methods is that growers
approach the market differently at different times of
the year. Since outdoor cultivators produce one large harvest in the fall, which drives prices down, they tend to release product into the market in a
controlled manner - selling enough in the fall to generate cash flow to cover expenses, but holding back inventory to release later in the year as prices
rise. Thus, outdoor cultivators - in general - are price setters in the fall and price takers in late spring and early summer. As noted in the chart, sellers
of outdoor grown flower sold lots averaging 33 pounds in January as they were recouping expenses, and then reduced lot sizes to optimize revenue
ahead of the next outdoor harvest. What happened next was not characteristic of prior years, and changed the status-quo. Outdoor growers -
encumbered with more inventory than in years past - began to sell larger quantities in June and July, as it became apparent that large quantities of
greenhouse grown flower from the first light deprived harvests would be coming to market, potentially creating an oversupply situation. While it
remains to be seen if last year’s fall harvest has been fully liquidated, the race by outdoor cultivators to preserve value drove prices down as the first
light-deprivation harvests of the year hit the market; the average greenhouse deal size nearly doubled from June to July. The average deal size for

19.
18
indoor growers appears to reflect the conventional experience of reduced yields in the late spring and summer, as cooling and humidity control costs
increase and growers shutter portions of their operations until conditions for 100% capacity utilization return, generally in September.
The Cons of outdoor growing include:
Growing location is government regulated
Dry season requires more effort in watering
Deer like to eat and destroy if not tended
Main indoor cons include:
Maintaining proper ventilation is difficult
Higher household energy costs
Pumped with fertilizers
Due to the high energy costs and difficulties with water supplying Company intend to develop marijuana growing business in greenhouses. Those
structures are showing an average cost savings of 33% - electric costs for growing marijuana for that way can drop to about $350 a pound.
We plan to build 12 greenhouses 3600 sq. ft. each during first 2 years.

Greenhouse and Cultivation Design
Greenhouses combine the latest technology in HVAC, light deprivation, environmental controls, irrigation, insect exclusion, benching systems, hybrid
techniques, and much more to create a systematic and efficient growing approach:
1. The biggest advantage Greenhouse Marijuana Growers have is the abundance of natural light coming into the greenhouse. Having said that high
intensity grow lights are still needed for supplemental lighting if you want to maximize production.
2. While cannabis likes long daylight during the vegetative stage, a good blackout system is required for the best flowering production.
3. Heating and Cooling Systems are an important component of the marijuana greenhouse. Because other components of your greenhouse design
affect your heating and cooling requirements it is essential that this is part of your integrated growing solution.
4. CO2 is essential for maximizing the quality and production of Marijuana. Depending on your fuel source, we can set up your boiler to produce
CO2 for your greenhouse. When this is not possible, we can design for liquid CO2 injection.
5. Not all grow lights are equal. GGS tests lights for maximizing marijuana yield, depending on your lighting needs GGS can recommend the best
LED lights, or when Metal Halide or High-Pressure Sodium lights are better suited.
6. Ventilation is essential as with all greenhouse crops, however marijuana legislation, and local municipality requirements may also impose strict
requirements for eliminating exhaust odors. Our integrated growing solutions include air filtration systems where required.
7. Marijuana can be grown hydroponically and there are several different systems for bench growing including flood benches, and trough benches.
Marijuana can also be grown in soil with drip irrigation systems.
8. A nutrient management system is essential for maximizing the production yield of the cannabis plants and ensuring consistent and reliable
quality.
9. The brains of the complete marijuana growing system whether a greenhouse production facility or a warehouse grow op is our environmental
computer. The computer control systems for a marijuana greenhouse controls and monitor all the nutrients, lights, blackout, air circulation, CO2
and irrigation needs of the plants, it is designed to maintain the exact environment needed for as many different growing zones as you want and
can handle different environments for propagation, cloning, flowering and for as many different varieties as you want to control. With our
system, all of this can be conveniently run from your smartphone.
10. Our integrated growing solutions are scalable so a small greenhouse growing facility can be expanded to as large an operation as you can imagine.

Company will use rolling benches / growing tables which are highly recommended for
any commercial cannabis grow operation. They provide up to 50% more plant space
by eliminating the need for a dedicated aisle. With a crop as valuable as marijuana,
this directly equates to much higher profits and maximum space efficiency.

Main Ratios
The return on equity ratio (ROE) measures how much the owner and investors earn for their investment in the company. The higher the ratio
percentage, the better return is. In general, financial analysts consider return on equity ratios in the 15-20% range as representing attractive levels of
investment quality. As we can see ROE for our project is higher and in average draw up 44%.
Return on assets (ROA) gives an idea as to how efficient management is at using its assets to generate earnings.
Profitability ratios are a class of financial metrics that are used to assess a business's ability to generate earnings as compared to its expenses and
other relevant costs incurred during a specific period of time.

Business Value
The cash flow approach converts future amounts (cash
flows) to a single current (discounted) amount. We have
used a discounted cash flow (DCF) method, which is
applied to equity cash flows.
On the first step we calculated the WACC (WEIGHTED
AVERAGE COST OF CAPITAL). WACC of a firm increases as
the beta and rate of return on equity increases, as an
increase in WACC notes a decrease in valuation and a
higher risk.
WACC Calculation
Target Capital Structure (1)
Debt to Total Capitalization 0.0%
Equity to Total Capitalization 100%
Debt to Equity Ratio 0.0%
Cost of Equity
Risk-free rate (2) 2.9%
Market risk Premium (3) 3.5%
Levered Beta (1) 1.21
Size Premium (3) 0.9%
Cost of Equity 8.0%
Cost of Debt
Cost of Debt 0.0%
Taxes 25.0%
After Tax Cost of Debt 0.0%
WACC 8.0%
(1) Obtained from Capital Structure
(2) Interpolated Yield on 10-year Treasury bond
(3) Obtained from PWC market risk study 2014
On the second step we estimated the Present value of cash flow using WACC.
