On Thursday, a new Canadian “pot stock” will go public. It’s designed to profit from the Marijuana Buyout Boom.
The company is called Canopy Rivers. It’s going to be a brand-new company.
Click here for my urgent briefing (it’s LIVE).
Canopy Rivers is a spin-off from Canopy Growth (NYSE: CGC) – the world’s most valuable cannabis company. You’ll recall that Canopy Growth landed a $4 billion investment from Constellation Brands (NYSE: STZ) last month.
Canopy Growth is becoming the world’s #1 cannabis company. It’s a licensed cannabis producer that’s expanding worldwide.
CEO Bruce Linton decided to create a new company to profit from the Marijuana Buyout Boom.
In June, the company raised C$104 million in a private placement.
That financing was in conjunction with a reverse takeover with AIM2 Ventures.
Canopy Rivers will make equity investments of $250,000 to $10 million in a wide range of private cannabis companies. It’s already made 11 investments.
Given Canopy Growth’s position in the industry, we’d expect Canopy Rivers to have access to the very best private deals.
This means that Canopy Rivers gets access the network and deal flow from Canopy Growth… And gets to decide what deals to pursue.
Canopy Rivers could be the “Google Ventures” of legal cannabis as it profits from the Marijuana Buyout Boom.
The latest private placement was closed at C$3.50. That financing was in mid-June – before the recent runup for pot stocks.
It’s possible that Canopy Rivers will open for trading above C$5..
With 197 million shares outstanding, the new IPO could be valued at over $1 billion on its first day of trading.
Shares of Canopy Rivers are expected to start trading on Thursday, Sept. 20.
Canopy Growth owns a 25% equity stake in Canopy Rivers. The balance is owned by management and investors.
Therefore, existing Canopy Growth shareholders will indirectly own shares of Canopy Rivers.
Plus, those seeking additional exposure can buy shares of Canopy Rivers on the TSX later this week. I’d expect the stock to begin trading OTC in the U.S. within two weeks.
Now’s the time to cash in on Phase 1: The Marijuana Buyout Boom.
