NEW YORK, October 4, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
A report by Arcview Market Research indicates that legal cannabis will grow at 22% CAGR in 2017, as eight states that voted to
open or expand their cannabis markets on Election Day in November 2016. According to the report, the industry
accelerated at a remarkable pace in 2016. North American consumers spent $6.7 billion on legal cannabis products, or up
34% from 2015. The 34% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2014 to 2016 was driven primarily

A research published by New Frontier Data shows how the pharmaceutical market will be influenced by medical cannabis. "The
United States constitutes 35% of the global pharmaceutical market, the largest market in the world, and a major driver of
the U.S. economy. It is one of many industries that will be impacted by the growth of the legal cannabis market and we are
already starting to see that trend in legal medical states where use of key prescription drugs is down by 11%. If cannabis were
to be adopted nationally, we would begin to see a trend of patients turning to medical cannabis as a substitute or complement to
pharmaceuticals," said Giadha Aguirre De Carcer, CEO & Founder, New Frontier Data.
