EVALUATION
Marapharm engaged Kurt Keating to do the evaluation of the 65,635 square foot facility located in Las Vegas. Kurt won 2 High Times Cannabis Cups in 2014 while cultivating medical cannabis and he has been consulting, evaluating and growing cannabis for several years. The market price for this type of marijuana at present is approximately $2300 wholesale per pound in Nevada. The evaluation for the three floors is 22,600 pounds per year. Current pricing and comparable facilities in Nevada indicate that revenue from the new 3 story building could potentially be $50 million gross and $30 million net, after operating costs, for the first year of production which is expected to begin in 2018.
