HOUSTON, TX--(Marketwired - Nov 18, 2014) - As a result of recently received additional due diligence information, Nhale Inc. (OTCQB: NHLE) today announced it is nearing a conclusive agreement with a prospective Oregon marijuana grower. The grow facility is projected to gross approximately $8.8 million in revenues during its first year of operation and is anticipated to triple in size each year afterward.
Following positive initial due diligence performed on the prospective Oregon grower, Nhale has established a subsidiary in the state for the purpose of growing and distributing legal marijuana as it considers the collaboration.
"We are very encouraged by the prospect of collaborating in Oregon, and we are confident that the talent, resources and skills we bring to the table will be the ideal complement for this project. We are committed to operating with the highest level of integrity as we grow along with the market in this progressive state," said Lance Williams, President and CEO of Nhale.
Oregonians voted 55 percent to 45 percent this month to legalize recreational sales and consumption of marijuana for people 21 years of age and older. In 2013, the Oregon legislature approved medical marijuana dispensaries and the state is home to one of the oldest medical cannabis programs in the country, established in 1998. According to the Humboldt Journal of Social Relations published by Oregon State University, the state has one of the highest rates of marijuana use in the country at 14.09 percent compared with the average U.S. rate of 10.2 percent.
On October 31, Nhale Inc. entered into a Letter of Intent with the private Oregon-based company. The company under consideration intends to apply for a permit from the state to begin operations on up to 20 acres of land in western Oregon. This venture is in accordance with Nhale's mission to acquire companies with valid business models in the legal cannabis industry.
