Key Industry Catalysts• Unlike in the US, Canada enjoys provincial and federal

support – we see much less systemic risk north of theborder, but key US states represent investmentopportunities should the political backdrop improve.

• Investors have flooded to producers / cultivators in thelast two to three years, but margin compressionremains a concern as non-cannabis farmers and / orforeign cultivators capture market share. We see this asa risk in the longer term for small cultivators, butrepresents consolidation potential in the short-mediumterm.

• As consumers become more comfortable with retailproducts, we see expansion potential into cannabis-infused products (i.e. oils, lotions, pills etc.) Branddifferentiation will be key, not unlike other consumablesin other verticals. Retail / distribution business modelswill not likely see the same margin compression ascultivators.

Legalization in Canada has beenslated for July 2018 but cultivatorshave been aggressively buildingfacilities to meet expecteddemand. Similarly, investors havealso been positioning themselvesahead of the legislation.

Industry Trends (continued)

Vertical integration is preferred within our investment mandate: “Infused products and edibles are thefastest growing category in the cannabis industry, proving extremely popular with recreationalconsumers and medical patients alike. While flower still accounts for the majority of retail sales,concentrates and edibles continue to eat into flower’s share of the market with each passing year.”-Marijuana Business Daily

Industry Capital Requirements

• Traditional banks and/or US public markets have been reticent – this provides an opportunity for Canadian investors to seek favorable terms.

• Public late-stage cultivators tend to trade at 10-20x multiple of private cultivators – the reward for liquidity is significant in the industry.

and may not truly replicate the natural cannabinoids,

scientists are able to produce the compounds at

potentially a fraction of the cost using natural growth

processes.

• The company is a Licensed Dealer under the Narcotic

Control Regulations of Health Canada.

• CIF sees, on average, between three to five private

cannabis companies per week.
