Why This Cannabis Stock May Rise Even More – LPC

OrganiGram cannabis stock up 62% this year, and seems likely to grow further.OrganiGram Holdings Inccannabis stock has risen 62% since the beginning of January 2019, taking its market cap to $1.3 billion. However, for industry insiders, the jump isn’t puzzling as much as the fact it took so long to happen.

“OrganiGram hasn’t generated as much buzz as bigger Canadian marijuana stocks. But that might not be a bad thing,” said Motley Fool contributor Keith Speights in September 2018. Since then, the cannabis stock has doubled.

The New Brunswick-based OrganiGram currently owns a three-level, indoor growing facility located in New Brunswick. Through expansion, the latest Motley Fool report should more than triple its production from 36,000kgs to 113,000kgs in 2019. (Please see link to full article below.)

What’s more, OrganiGram has licensing agreements in all ten provinces – only two other companies enjoy those benefits. That’s another reason why this stock is becoming an investor darling. Canada is not the limit, either. Plans are already in the works to expand internationally as many Canadian cannabis companies are already doing.

Cannabis Valuations Way Up, But Not OrganiGram – LPC

Experts have talked about the huge cannabis stock valuations – something that’s typical of a boom industry. However, OrganiGram’s valuations are much less than others.

Based on 2019 estimates, OrganiGram’s cannabis stock will trade at 22x this year’s earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). The average cannabis stock in Canada trades at 226x EBITDA, making it a tenth the valuation. Combine that with the company’s strong cash holdings (it is funding its own expansion), and that makes OrganiGram one of the “best bet” cannabis stocks available, according to the Motley Fool report.

Next year, OrganiGram’s stock is projected to have a 14x EBITDA, compared to the average 53x.

(As always, due diligence is required before purchasing any cannabis stock.)
