The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the private placement and debt facility to fund additional cannabis real estate acquisitions across the U.S., which is estimated to generate $80 billion in cannabis sales by 2030 according to Cowen, Inc. The Company will seek to continue acquiring real estate across several recreational and medical cannabis states, including Arizona, California, Florida, New York and Nevada, with a focus on retail-related properties.
