Curaleaf: The Analyst Take On The European Expansion

On April 7th, Curaleaf Holdings (CSE: CURA) announced that they completed $312 million acquisition of related party European company EMMAC Life Sciences, and subsequently they sold 31.5% of the company off to a single institutional investor for U$130 million. This money will be used to pay the $50 million cash tender while the rest of the cash will be used to fund Curaleaf international’s CAPEX through 2022.

Curaleaf currently has 14 analysts covering the company with a weighted 12-month price target of C$27.86. This is up from the average from last month of C$25.14. Four analysts have strong buy ratings and the other ten analysts have buy ratings. The street high comes from BTIG with a C$34 12-month price target and the lowest is C$24 from Cormark Securities.

Canaccord Genuity’s analyst, Matt Bottomley writes, “we believe the potential long-term optionality afforded by entrance into these geographies could be very attractive relative to its current purchase price, time while representing an international platform for potential M&A as these markets develop.” Bottomley believes that this $80 million will go towards the expansion into UK, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Portugal.

Bottomley makes a note that they believe Curaleafs $1.2 – $1.3 billion revenue and 30% EBITDA margin guided by management does not include 1) any contributions from EMMAC and 2) adult-use sales in New Jersey, which is included in their U$1.36 billion 2021 revenue estimate.

Meanwhile, Haywood’s analyst Neal Gilmer says, “The addition of EMMAC not only provides international exposure but positions the company to be a leader in the global cannabis market,” and adds that the strategic investment by a single investor gives legitimacy to the European market. Gilmer also adds that Curaleaf estimates that in 2020 the European medical cannabis market was $1 billion and is expected to >5x in the next three years.

Haywood gives three upcoming catalysts, which you can see below.
