is positioned to generate $20M USD per year in revenue on a pro-forma basis including $10M USD in wholesale sales in Oregon and a projected $10M USD of revenue from our Michigan partner’s operations. Over the past 5 years, we have developed proprietary operational and sales processes to achieve a consistent operating margin greater than 40%, which we expect to continue. We have reinvested the healthy cash flow into the company and this asset acquisition actualizes our commitment to scaling a robust profitable model providing our shareholders even greater value creation.”
Grown Rogue’s, state-of-the-art 30,000 sq ft indoor facility located in Medford, Oregon.
“This value acquisition is another example of our talented team’s disciplined focus on our core competency of high- quality, low-cost flower production,” added Mr. Strickler. “We are picking up where we left off in 2020, when we completed a controlling interest acquisition of a first-rate cannabis asset in Michigan. We continue to execute on our business strategy of acquiring undervalued assets, creating further value and profitability by applying our proven best practices, and providing excellent return on invested capital.”
The recently constructed, state-of-the-art indoor facility is located only five minutes from the existing Grown Rogue facility. The physical proximity of the two facilities offers economies of scale which will further drive down Grown Rogue’s cash cost to produce at or below $0.80 USD/gram. The new facility is expected to produce an estimated 2,400 pounds or $2.5M USD in revenue (against expenses of $1M USD) of high-quality indoor flower for the remainder of 2021 (partial year) and upon conversion of a fourth growing room from vegetative to flower, the facility will have capacity to produce 5,000 pounds or $6M USD in revenue (against expenses of $2.5M USD) of Oregon’s highest quality flower in 2022 (full year). Grown Rogue will begin retrofitting and implementing proprietary operating procedures immediately under the MSA until final close of the asset, which is expected in approximately 6 months, subsequent to final regulatory approvals. The retail dispensary is located in Portland, Oregon the 6th largest metro area on the west coast. Grown Rogue expects to take possession of the retail operation in two to four months, after regulatory approval of the transaction. In addition to connecting with consumers to better understand trends in purchasing habits and preferences, Grown Rogue expects to add an additional $1M USD plus to its yearly top-line revenue through retail sales from the dispensary with an estimated 30% operating margin. Total consideration for the acquisiton is $3M USD to be paid in a series of tranches based on estimated regulatory approvals not to exceed 18 months.
