Golden Leaf Completes Acquisition of Cannabis Licenses in Nevada

Golden Leaf Holdings (CSE:GLH; OTCQB:GLDFF) closed the acquisition of a cultivation license and an extraction license in Nevada.
As quoted in the press release:

The purchase price for the Acquisition consists of US$2,125,000 payable in cash. In addition, the Company paid expenses relating to the Acquisition of approximately US$112,000.
NevWa’s cultivation and extraction license, based out of Sparks, Nevada, allows for the distribution and sale of products across the state of Nevada, including in Las Vegas and Reno. Medical marijuana is currently legal in Nevada, and the state’s recreational market is scheduled to launch in July 2017. Nevada’s medical market also enables reciprocity for patients, whereby patients from other states can legally use their medical marijuana cards in Nevada, opening the medical market to the state’s more than 40 million yearly visitors.
In connection with GLH’s strategic acquisition program as previously announced, the closing of the Acquisition is expected to drive financial and shareholder value. It allows the Company to gain first mover advantage by receiving a prized license in Nevada to grow, process and distribute branded marijuana products. In addition, GLH obtains access to a highly sought after Las Vegas market and high volume dispensaries supported by a global tourism hub. The Company expects to leverage distribution in dispensaries and export GLH’s brand portfolio of new and existing products to Nevada. Finally, the Company believes it will develop new market penetration to drive further brand equity and awareness of GLH’s products.
